The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used below are defined in the Business Combination Agreement.

Business Combination Agreement

On May 2, 2023, BioPlus Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“BIOS”), Guardian Merger Subsidiary Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of BIOS (“Merger Sub”), and Avertix Medical, Inc. (f/k/a Angel Medical Systems, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (“Avertix”), and, solely with respect to Section 3.03(b) and Section 7.21 of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below), BioPlus Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), entered into a business combination agreement and plan of reorganization (the “Business Combination Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Avertix (the “Merger,” and together with the other transactions related thereto, the “Transactions”), with Avertix surviving the Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of BIOS.

The Domestication

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, prior to (but no later than the day preceding) the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) and following the exercise of their redemption right by the shareholders of BIOS (the “BIOS Shareholders”), BIOS will domesticate as a Delaware corporation in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Companies Act (as revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Domestication”). Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, BIOS will change its name to “Avertix Medical, Inc.” (“New Avertix”).

Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, (i) each then issued and outstanding Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of BIOS will convert automatically into one (1) share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of New Avertix (the “New Avertix Common Stock”), (ii) each then issued and outstanding Class B ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of BIOS will convert automatically into one (1) share of New Avertix Common Stock, (iii) each then issued and outstanding BIOS warrant exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share of BIOS will convert automatically into one New Avertix warrant exercisable to purchase one share of New Avertix Common Stock and (iv) each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share of BIOS and one-half of one BIOS warrant will convert automatically into a unit consisting of one share of New Avertix Common Stock and one-half of one New Avertix warrant.

Transaction Consideration

Upon the consummation of the Merger, (i) each share of Avertix common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Avertix Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) will be canceled and converted into the right to receive (A) a number of shares of BIOS Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and (B) the holder of such Avertix Common Stock’s contingent right to receive such holder’s pro rata share of the Avertix Earnout Shares (as defined below) in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, in each case, without interest, and (ii) each option to purchase shares of Avertix Common Stock (“Avertix Option”) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether then vested or unvested, will be assumed by New Avertix and converted into (A) an option to purchase a number of shares of New Avertix Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) (“Exchanged Option”) equal to (x) the number of shares of Avertix Common Stock subject to such Avertix Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (1) the exercise price per share of such Avertix Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (2) the Exchange Ratio and (B) the holder of such Avertix Option’s contingent right to receive such holder’s pro rata share of the Avertix Earnout Shares in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

Following the Closing, as additional consideration for the Merger and the other Transactions, eligible equityholders of Avertix will be entitled to receive their respective pro rata share of 2,970,000 shares of New Avertix Common Stock (the “Avertix Earnout Shares”) in two equal tranches, each contingent upon New Avertix’s achievement of the applicable stock price milestones (the “Triggering Events”) during the Earnout Period; provided that, with respect to any holder of a unvested Exchanged Option, an award of restricted stock units for a number of Avertix Earnout Shares otherwise issuable to such holder and subject to the same vesting terms as the unvested Exchanged Option will be issued to such holder in lieu of any Avertix Earnout Shares.

At the Effective Time, a portion of the Sponsor’s founder shares, consisting of 1,150,000 Class B ordinary shares of BIOS as of the date hereof (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”), will become unvested and subject to vesting and forfeiture, and will thereafter become vested only upon the occurrence of the applicable Triggering Event in the same proportion as the issuance of Avertix Earnout Shares to eligible equityholders of Avertix upon the occurrence of such Triggering Event. The Sponsor Earnout Shares are subject to reduction in connection with certain additional financing permitted under the Business Combination Agreement, and will be forfeited if the applicable Triggering Events do not occur during the Earnout Period.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The parties to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Parties”) have made customary representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, with respect to the conduct of the businesses of Avertix and BIOS during the period between execution of the Business Combination Agreement and the Closing (the “Interim Period”). Certain of the representations are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Business Combination Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Business Combination Agreement.

The Parties have agreed to take all actions necessary or appropriate such that, as of immediately following the Closing, New Avertix’s board of directors will be divided into three classes and be composed of a total of seven (7) directors, which directors shall include Ross Haghighat, two (2) individuals designated by the Sponsor and four (4) individuals designated by Avertix.

The Parties have agreed that, during the Interim Period, BIOS may sell to any other person in a private placement additional shares of BIOS’ equity that have the same rights, privileges and preferences as the shares of New Avertix Common Stock to be issued to the stockholders of Avertix pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and at a price per share not less than $10.00 per share. At the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, convertible note financing provided by the Sponsor prior to the Closing will be repaid at the Closing or converted into New Avertix units pursuant to their terms.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are not historical facts, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results of BIOS and Avertix to differ materially from those expected

and projected. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the words “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “potential,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continue,” or “should,” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding BIOS’ ability to enter into definitive agreements or consummate a transaction with Avertix and the expected timing of completion of the Transactions.

These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside BIOS’ and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the inability of the Parties to successfully or timely consummate the Transactions; the risk that the Transactions may not be completed by BIOS’ business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the Transactions deadline by BIOS; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to Avertix; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the definitive transaction agreement; Avertix’s history of operating losses; Avertix’s need for additional capital to support its present business plan and anticipated growth; Avertix’s ability to engage physicians to utilize and prescribe its solution; changes in reimbursement practices; technological changes in Avertix’s market; Avertix’s ability to protect its intellectual property; Avertix’s material weaknesses in financial reporting; and Avertix’s ability to navigate complex regulatory requirements; the ability to maintain the listing of BIOS’ securities on a national securities exchange; the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the Transactions; the effects of competition on Avertix’s business; the risks of operating and effectively managing growth in evolving and uncertain macroeconomic conditions, such as high inflation and recessionary environments; continuing risks relating to the COVID 19 pandemic; and risks associated with Avertix’s ability to develop its products and achieve regulatory approvals or milestones on the timelines expected or at all. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.

BIOS cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. BIOS cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. BIOS does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Further information about factors that could materially affect BIOS, including its results of operations and financial condition, is set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of BIOS’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Following the Company Warrant Settlement and the Conversion, neither the Company Warrants nor shares of Company Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding and shall cease to exist, and each holder thereof shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect thereto.

(b) Company Common Stock. At the Effective Time (and, for the avoidance of doubt, following the consummation of the Domestication and after giving effect to the Company Warrant Settlement and the Conversion), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(i) each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (including shares of Company Common Stock issued in connection with the Company Warrant Settlement and the Conversion) shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive (A) a number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the Exchange Ratio and (B) the contingent right to receive the Company Earnout Shares in accordance with Section 3.03, in each case, without interest (collectively, the “Per Share Merger Consideration”); provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent a share of Company Common Stock is subject to an early exercise stock purchase agreement or a similar agreement prior to the Effective Time (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”), the Per Share Merger Consideration (including, if applicable, any Company Earnout Share) issued to the holder of such share of Company Common Stock pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall continue to be subject to the vesting, forfeiture and repurchase terms and conditions set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement;

(ii) all shares of Company Stock held in the treasury of the Company shall be canceled without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto; and

(c) Company Options. At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether then vested or unvested, shall be assumed by Acquiror and converted into (i) an option to purchase a number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) (such option, an “Exchanged Option”) equal to (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (1) the exercise price per share of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (2) the Exchange Ratio and (ii) the contingent right to receive the Company Earnout Shares in accordance with Section 3.03; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Exchanged Options shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; provided, further, that in the case of any Exchanged Option to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such Exchanged Option shall be

22

determined in accordance with the foregoing, subject to such adjustments as are necessary in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code (including that share amounts will be rounded down to the nearest whole share and exercise prices will be rounded up to the nearest whole cent). Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Exchanged Option shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting and exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all necessary actions to effect the transactions contemplated by Section 3.01(a), Section 3.01(b) and Section 3.01(c) under the Company Certificate of Incorporation, bylaws of the Company and Company Stock Plan and any applicable award agreements thereunder, including delivering all required notices, obtaining all necessary approvals and consents, and delivering evidence reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror that all necessary determinations by the Company Board or applicable committee of the Company Board to convert Company Options in accordance with Section 3.01(c) have been made, and to ensure that no Exchanged Option may be exercised prior to the effective date of a registration statement on Form S-8 or other applicable form of Acquiror.

Acquiror shall cause the Exchange Agent, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to pay the Per Share Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with this Agreement. Except as contemplated by Section 3.02(c) hereof, the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) Exchange Procedures. As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, the Company shall deliver to each holder of Company Stock evidenced by certificates (the “Certificates”) entitled to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01 instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates. Within two Business Days (but in no event prior to the Effective Time) after the surrender to the Exchange Agent of all Certificates held by such holder for cancellation, and such other documents as may be required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefore, and Acquiror shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 and Section 3.03, and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 3.02, each Certificate entitled to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration in accordance with Section 3.01 and Section 3.03 shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 and Section 3.03. Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders of book entry shares of Company Stock not evidenced by certificates (“Book Entries”) shall not be required to surrender any Certificates or other documents in order to receive the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares, and Acquiror shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration in respect of all Book Entries within two Business Days following the Closing Date.

Subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, Acquiror shall pay or cause to be paid to the holder of the shares of Acquiror Common Stock issued in exchange therefore, without interest, (i) promptly, but in any event within five Business Days of such surrender, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Acquiror Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender and a payment date occurring after surrender, payable with respect to such shares of Acquiror Common Stock; provided, however, any dividends or other distributions with respect to Company Earnout Shares shall be subject to the provisions of Section 3.03.

(d) No Further Rights. The Per Share Merger Consideration payable upon conversion of the Company Stock (including shares of Company Common Stock issued in connection with the Company Warrant Settlement and the Conversion) shall be deemed to have been paid and issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Stock.

(e) Adjustments to Per Share Merger Consideration. The Per Share Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Acquiror Common Stock, the Company Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that this Section 3.02(e) shall not be construed to permit Acquiror or the Company to take any actions with respect to its securities that is prohibited by this Agreement.

(f) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Stock for one year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Acquiror, upon demand, and any holders of Company Stock who have not theretofore complied with this Section 3.02 shall thereafter look only to Acquiror for the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Company Stock as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any government entity shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of Acquiror free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(g) No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, Acquiror or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Company Stock (including shares of Company Common Stock issued in connection with the Company Warrant Settlement and the Conversion) for any Acquiror Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law in accordance with this Section 3.02.

(h) Withholding Rights. Each of the Company, the Surviving Corporation, Merger Sub, Acquiror and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from payments pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payments under the Code or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(i) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue or cause to be issued in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the applicable Per Share Merger Consideration that such holder is otherwise entitled to receive pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 3.01.

24

(j) Fractional Shares. No certificates or scrip or shares representing fractional shares of Acquiror Common Stock shall be issued upon the exchange of Company Common Stock and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to have any rights of a shareholder of Acquiror or a holder of shares of Acquiror Common Stock. In lieu of any fractional share of Acquiror Common Stock to which any holder of Company Common Stock would otherwise be entitled, the Exchange Agent shall round down to the nearest whole share of Acquiror Common Stock. No cash settlements shall be made with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding.

3.03 Earnout.

(i) in connection with the occurrence of Triggering Event I, a one-time issuance of one-half of the Company Earnout Shares; and

(ii) in connection with the occurrence of Triggering Event II, a one-time issuance of one-half of the Company Earnout Shares.

(b) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Acquiror, Merger Sub, the Company or the Sponsor, 1,150,000 shares of Acquiror Founders Stock (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) shall become unvested and subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in this Section 3.03(b). Following the Closing and subject to Section 3.03(f), (i) if Triggering Event I occurs, then one-half of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall become vested and no longer be subject to forfeiture pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) (the “First Level Sponsor Earnout Shares”), and (ii) if Triggering Event II occurs, then the remaining one-half of the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall become vested and no longer be subject to forfeiture pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) (the “Second Level Sponsor Earnout Shares”); provided that the number of Sponsor Earnout Shares that may become vested in connection with the occurrence of a Triggering Event shall be reduced, on a share-by-share basis, by the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock forfeited by Sponsor in connection with any Additional Financing transaction pursuant to Section 7.21(a), if any. Any reduction in the number of Sponsor Earnout Shares pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) shall be first from the Second Tranche Sponsor Earnout Shares, and then from the First Tranche Sponsor Earnout Shares; provided that in no event shall the number of Sponsor Earnout Shares be reduced below 575,000. To the extent that no Triggering Event or Change in Control has occurred during the Earnout Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Sponsor Earnout Shares that would otherwise become vested under this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of such Triggering Event or Change in Control shall instead be forfeited and cancelled without the payment of any consideration in respect thereof. The parties intend that the transactions contemplated by the first sentence of this Section 3.03(b) shall be treated in accordance with Rev. Rul. 2007-49, Situation 1, for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) each Triggering Event shall only occur once, if at all, and in no event shall (A) the Eligible Company Equityholders be entitled to receive more than the Company Earnout Shares and (B) the Sponsor be entitled to receive more than the Sponsor Earnout Shares, and (ii) to the extent that no Triggering Event or Change in Control has occurred during the Earnout Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Company Earnout Shares that would otherwise be issued or Sponsor Earnout Shares that would otherwise become vested under this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of such Triggering Event or Change in Control shall instead be forfeited and cancelled without the payment of any consideration in respect thereof.

25

(d) The number of Company Earnout Shares, Sponsor Earnout Shares and the Acquiror Common Stock price targets set forth in the definitions of Triggering Event I and Triggering Event II shall be equitably adjusted to reflect the effect of stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into shares of Acquiror Common Stock), reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to shares of Acquiror Common Stock occurring after the Closing.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.03(a) to the contrary, to the extent that any portion of the Company Earnout Shares that would otherwise be issued to an Eligible Company Equityholder hereunder relates to a Company Option exchanged for an Exchanged Option that remains unvested as of such Triggering Event (each such Exchanged Option, an “Unvested Exchanged Option”), then in lieu of issuing the applicable Company Earnout Shares, Acquiror shall instead issue, as soon as practicable following the later of (i) the occurrence of such Triggering Event and (ii) Acquiror’s filing of a Form S-8 Registration Statement, to each holder of an Unvested Exchanged Option, an award of restricted stock units of Acquiror for a number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to such portion of the Company Earnout Shares issuable with respect to the Unvested Exchanged Option (the “Contingent RSUs”).

Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released except: (1) to pay income and franchise Taxes from any interest income earned in the Trust Account; and (2) upon the exercise of Redemption Rights in accordance with the provisions of the Acquiror Organizational Documents. To Acquiror’s knowledge, as of the date of this Agreement, following the Effective Time, no shareholder of Acquiror shall be entitled to receive any amount from the Trust Account except to the extent such shareholder is exercising its Redemption Rights.

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.02, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Acquiror from extending, in accordance with the Acquiror Organizational Documents and the Prospectus, the deadline by which it must complete its Business Combination (an “Extension”), and no consent of the Company shall be required in connection therewith; provided that Acquiror shall provide to the Company drafts of all material documents related to an Extension and shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments to such documents provided by the Company. During the Interim Period, each of the Company and Acquiror shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions hereof, complete control and supervision of its respective operations.

6.03 Waiver of Claims Against Trust Account. Reference is made to the final prospectus of Acquiror, dated as of December 2, 2021 and filed with the SEC (File No. 333-258028) on December 6, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). The Company hereby represents and warrants that it has read the Prospectus and understands that Acquiror has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and the overallotment shares acquired by its underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon)

66

for the benefit of Acquiror’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Acquiror’s underwriters, the “Public Stockholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the Prospectus, Acquiror may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Stockholders in the event they elect to redeem their shares of Acquiror Common Stock in connection with the consummation of Acquiror’s initial Business Combination or in connection with an Extension, (b) to the Public Stockholders if Acquiror fails to consummate a Business Combination within eighteen (18) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to an Extension, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes or (d) to Acquiror after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of Acquiror entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its controlled affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, except as described in the preceding clause (d), neither the Company nor any of its controlled affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between Acquiror or its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company or its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). The Company on behalf of itself and its affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that the Company or any of its affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Acquiror or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any Released Claim (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Acquiror or its affiliates). The Company agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Acquiror and its affiliates to induce Acquiror to enter into this Agreement, and the Company further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against the Company and each of its controlled affiliates under applicable law. To the extent the Company or any of its controlled affiliates commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any Released Claim, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Acquiror or its Representatives, the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s and its controlled affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit the Company or its affiliates (or any person claiming on any of their behalves or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein.

Acquiror shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the Acquiror Proposals at the Acquiror General Meeting, including by soliciting from its shareholders proxies as promptly as possible in favor of the Acquiror Proposals, and shall take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the required vote or consent of its shareholders, subject to the right of Acquiror to make an Acquiror Change in Recommendation pursuant to this Section 7.04(a).

(b) Notwithstanding (i) any Acquiror Change in Recommendation, (ii) the making of any inquiry or proposal with respect to an Acquiror Alternative Transaction or (iii) anything to the contrary contained herein, unless this Agreement has been earlier validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.01, (A) in no event shall Acquiror or Merger Sub execute or enter into any agreement in principle, confidentiality agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other written arrangement relating to any Acquiror Alternative Transaction or terminate this Agreement in connection therewith and (B) Acquiror and Merger Sub shall otherwise remain subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Acquiror’s obligation to use reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the Acquiror Proposals at the Acquiror General Meeting in accordance with Section 7.04(a).

If the amount of Acquiror Cash as of the Closing, without taking into account any amounts from the Sponsor Loan Note or the Additional Sponsor Loan Note, is less than the Acquiror Adjusted Minimum Cash, then, effective as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Sponsor shall convert the Sponsor Loan Note and the Additional Sponsor Loan Note into a number of Domesticated Acquiror Units in accordance with the terms of Sponsor Loan Note and the Additional Sponsor Loan Note. If the amount of Acquiror Cash as of the Closing, without taking into account any amounts from the Sponsor Loan Note or the Additional Sponsor Loan Note, is equal to or exceeds the Acquiror Adjusted Minimum Cash, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, all outstanding principal and accrued interest amounts under the Sponsor Loan Note and the Additional Sponsor Loan Note shall be repaid at the Closing as Acquiror Transaction Costs pursuant to Section 3.04(c).

During the Interim Period, the Company shall deliver to Acquiror and any of the Company’s and Acquiror’s financial advisors, within (i) fifteen (15) days following the end of any month, the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the end of such month, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for such monthly period, setting forth in each case comparisons to the Company’s monthly budget and to the corresponding period in the preceding fiscal year, all in reasonable detail and prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject to the absence of footnote disclosures and to normal year-end adjustments) and (ii) thirty (30) days following the end of any fiscal quarter, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the end of such quarter, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders’ equity for such period that is required to be included in the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement and any other filings to be made by Acquiror with the SEC in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and which, in the case of any of the foregoing that is audited, shall in each case be audited in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. As soon as practicable following the date hereof and no later than May 12, 2023, the Company shall deliver to Acquiror the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Company and Company Subsidiaries, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, for the periods set forth in Section 7.22 of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

To the extent applicable, prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to secure from any Person who is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G of the Code), and who has a right to any payments and/ or benefits or potential right to any payments and/ or benefits in connection with the Merger that would reasonably be expected to constitute “parachute payments” pursuant to Section 280G of the Code, a waiver of such Person’s right to any such “parachute payments” to the extent required to avoid the imposition of Tax by virtue of the operation of Section 280G of the Code (the “Waived 280G Benefits”) and to accept in substitution therefor the right to receive such payments only if approved by the stockholders of the Company in a manner that complies with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and (b) submit to the stockholders of the Company, for approval or disapproval by such stockholders holding the number of shares of Company Stock required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, the Waived 280G Benefits in a manner intended to provide that no such payments and benefits shall be deemed “parachute payments” under Section 280G of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The Company agrees that in the absence of such stockholder approval, no Waived 280G Benefits will be paid, received, or retained. Moreover, this Section 7.23 shall not apply to any contracts or arrangements (including any contracts or arrangements that provide for any equity or equity-based incentive awards) between Acquiror or any of its Affiliates and a disqualified individual unless such contracts or arrangements are provided to the Company at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Acquiror shall cooperate with the Company in good faith to calculate or determine the value (for the purposes of Section 280G of the Code) of any payments or benefits granted or contemplated in any such contracts or arrangements that could constitute a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code.

AVERTIX MEDICAL, INC.

The undersigned, a natural person (the “Sole Incorporator”), for the purpose of organizing a corporation to conduct the business and promote the purposes hereinafter stated, under the provisions and subject to the requirements of the laws of the State of Delaware hereby certifies that:

I.

The name of this corporation is Avertix Medical, Inc.

II.

The address of the registered office of this corporation in the State of Delaware shall be Corporation Trust Center 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, County of New Castle, or in such other location as the Board of Directors of this corporation (the “Board”) may from time to time determine or the business of this corporation may require. This corporation’s registered agent for service of process at such address is The Corporation Trust Company.

III.

The purpose of this corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which a corporation may be organized under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”).

IV.

A. The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which this corporation shall have authority to issue is 555,000,000 shares, consisting of (1) 550,000,000 shares of common stock (“”Common Stock), including (i) 500,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A Common Stock”), and (ii) 50,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock”), and (b) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”).

B. The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. The Board is hereby expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares for each such series and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by the DGCL. The Board is also expressly authorized to increase or decrease the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be decreased in accordance with the foregoing sentence, the shares constituting such decrease shall resume the status that they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series.

1.

C. The number of authorized shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, or any series thereof, may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding plus, if applicable, the number of shares of such class or series reserved for issuance) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of stock of this corporation entitled to vote thereon, without a separate vote of the holders of the Common Stock or Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to the terms of any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock.

D. Each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders of the Company for their vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by applicable law, holders of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this certificate of incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon by law or pursuant to this certificate of incorporation (including any certificate of designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock).

E. Capitalized terms otherwise used but not defined in this certificate of incorporation shall have the meaning set forth below:

“Business Combination” means a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving this corporation, with one or more businesses or entities (the “target business”), which Business Combination: (a) must occur with one or more target businesses that together have an aggregate fair market value of at least 80 percent of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing of the definitive agreement to enter into a such Business Combination; and (b) must not be solely effectuated with another blank cheque company or a similar company with nominal operations.

“Equity-linked Securities” means any debt or equity securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock issued in a financing transaction in connection with the initial Business Combination, including but not limited to a private placement of equity or debt.

“IPO” means this corporation’s initial public offering of securities.

“Public Shares” means shares of Class A Common Stock (following the conversion from Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share) issued as part of the units issued in the IPO (which exclude, for the avoidance of doubt, shares of Class A Common Stock that are issued upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock).

“Sponsor” means BioPlus Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company, and its successors or assigns.

“Trust Account” means the trust account established by this corporation upon the consummation of the IPO and into which a certain amount of the net proceeds of the IPO, together with a certain amount of the proceeds of a private placement of units simultaneously with the closing date of the IPO, were deposited.

2.

F. Class B Common Stock Conversion

1. The rights attaching to the Common Stock shall rank pari passu in all respects, and the Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters (subject to paragraph D of Article V below) with the exception that the holder of a Class B Common Stock shall have the conversion rights referred to herein.

2. Shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”): (a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holders thereof; or (b) automatically on the day of the consummation of a Business Combination.

3. Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock or any other Equity-linked Securities, are issued, or deemed issued, by this corporation in connection with the initial Business Combination, all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the consummation of such Business Combination at a ratio for which shares of Class B Common Stock shall convert into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to, on an as-converted basis, in the aggregate, 20 percent of the sum of all shares of Common Stock outstanding upon completion of the IPO plus all shares of Class A Common Stock and Equity-linked Securities issued or deemed issued in connection with such Business Combination, excluding any shares or Equity-linked Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in such Business Combination and any private placement units issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates, a director or an officer upon conversion of loans by the Sponsor or working capital loans, in each case, made to this corporation.

4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of the holders of a majority of the shares Class B Common Stock then outstanding.

5. The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share subdivision, exchange, capitalization, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the Class A Common Stock then outstanding into a greater or lesser number of shares occurring after the original filing of this certificate of incorporation without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the Class B Common Stock then outstanding.

6. Each share of Class B Common Stock shall convert into its pro rata number of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this Article. The pro rata share for each holder of shares of Class B Common Stock will be determined as follows: each share of Class B Common Stock shall convert into such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock into which all of the shares Class B Common Stock then outstanding shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock then outstanding at the time of conversion.

7. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any share of Class B Common Stock convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at a ratio that is less than one-for-one.

3.

G. Winding Up

In the event that this corporation does not consummate a Business Combination within 18 months from the consummation of the IPO, or such later time as the stockholders of this corporation may approve in accordance with this certificate of incorporation, the corporation shall:

1. cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up;

2. as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to this corporation to pay tax obligations, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay winding up and dissolution expenses), divided by the number of Public Shares then outstanding, which redemption will completely extinguish the holders of such Public Shares rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and

3. as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of this corporation’s remaining stockholders and the directors, liquidate and dissolve,

subject in each case to its obligation under applicable law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

V.

A. The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of this corporation shall be vested in its Board. The number of directors that shall constitute the Board shall be fixed exclusively by resolutions adopted by a majority of the authorized number of directors constituting the Board.

B. Subject to the rights of the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. Each class shall consist, as nearly as practicable, of a number of directors equal to one third of the number of members of the Board authorized as provided in Section A of Article V. The Board is authorized to assign members of the Board already in office to such classes at the time the classification becomes effective. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the filing of this certificate of incorporation (the “Filing Date”), the initial term of office of the Class I directors shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of stockholders following the Filing Date, the initial term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the Filing Date, the initial term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at such annual meeting.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each director shall serve until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board shall remove or shorten the term of any incumbent director. An annual meeting of stockholders for the purpose of election of directors and for such other business as may properly come before the meeting, shall be held on such date, time and place, if any, as may be determined from time to time by the Board.

4.

C. No person entitled to vote at an election for directors may cumulate votes to which such person is entitled unless required by applicable law at the time of such election.

D. Subject to the rights of the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock to remove directors elected by such series of Preferred Stock, any individual director or the entire Board may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause, and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of this corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of directors, voting together as a single class.

E. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law and subject to the rights of the holders of any one or more series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors or fill vacancies in respect of such directors, any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, shall be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected to fill a newly created directorship or vacancy in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders held to elect the class of directors to which such director is elected and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified or such director’s earlier death, resignation or removal.

F. The Board is expressly authorized and empowered to adopt, amend, or repeal the bylaws of this corporation (as amended from time to time) without the assent or vote of the stockholders in any manner not inconsistent with laws of the State of Delaware or this certificate of incorporation. Any adoption, amendment or repeal of the bylaws of this corporation by the Board shall require the approval of a majority of the authorized number of directors. The stockholders shall also have power to adopt, amend, or repeal the bylaws of this corporation; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of this corporation required by applicable law or by this certificate of incorporation, such action by stockholders shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of this corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

G. Unless and except to the extent that the bylaws of this corporation shall so require, the election of directors of this corporation need not be by written ballot.

H. No action shall be taken by the stockholders except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with the bylaws and no action of this corporation shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent or electronic transmission.

I. Subject to any rights of the holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, special meetings of stockholders of this corporation may be called only by the chairperson of the Board or the Board, but a special meeting may not be called by any other person or persons and any power of stockholders to call a special meeting of stockholders is specifically denied. Only such business shall be considered at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been stated in the notice for such meeting.

J. Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of the stockholders of this corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the bylaws of this corporation.

5.

K. Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, this Article V may only be amended by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of this corporation (which shall include the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock).

VI.

A. The liability of the directors and officers for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. If applicable law is amended after the effectiveness of this Article VI to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer to this corporation will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as so amended. Solely for purposes of this paragraph A of this Article VI, “officer” shall have the meaning provided in Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL as amended from time to time.

B. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) directors, officers and agents of this corporation (and any other persons to which applicable law permits this corporation to provide indemnification) through the bylaws of this corporation, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by such applicable law.

C. Any repeal or modification of this Article VI is only prospective and does not affect the rights or protections or increase the liability of any officer or director under this Article VI in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or indemnification.

VII.

A. Unless this corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if and only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any state court located within the State of Delaware or, if and only if all such state courts lack subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) and any appellate court therefrom shall be the sole and exclusive forum for the following claims or causes of action under Delaware statutory or common law: (i) any derivative claim or cause of action brought on behalf of this corporation; (ii) any claim or cause of action for breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer or other employee or stockholder of this corporation, to this corporation or this corporation’s stockholders; (iii) any claim or cause of action against this corporation or any current or former director, officer or other employee of this corporation, arising out of or pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, this certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of this corporation (as each may be amended from time to time); (iv) any claim or cause of action seeking to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of this certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of this corporation (as each may be amended from time to time, including any right, obligation, or remedy thereunder); (v) any claim or cause of action as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; and (vi) any claim or cause of action against this corporation or any current or former director, officer or other employee of this corporation, governed by the internal-affairs doctrine or otherwise relate to this corporation’s internal affairs, in all cases to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants. This Section A of Article VII shall not apply to claims or causes of action brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

6.

B. Unless this corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the 1933 Act, including all causes of action asserted against any defendant named in such complaint. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision is intended to benefit and may be enforced by this corporation, its officers and directors, the underwriters for any offering giving rise to such complaint, and any other professional entity whose profession gives authority to a statement made by that person or entity and who has prepared or certified any part of the documents underlying the offering.

C. Any person or entity holding, owning or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of this corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this certificate of incorporation.

VIII.

A. This corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal, at any time and from time to time, any provision contained in this certificate of incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute, except as provided in paragraph B of this Article VIII, and all rights, preferences and privileges of whatsoever nature conferred upon the stockholders, directors or any other persons whomsoever herein are granted subject to this reservation.

B. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this certificate of incorporation or any provision of applicable law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any affirmative vote of the holders of any particular class or series of capital stock of this corporation required by applicable law or by this certificate of incorporation or any certificate of designation filed with respect to a series of Preferred Stock that may be designated from time to time, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of this corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend or repeal (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), or adopt any provision inconsistent with Articles V, VI, VII and VIII.

The corporation may postpone, reschedule or cancel any annual meeting of stockholders previously scheduled by the Board of Directors. Nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation and the proposal of business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders: (i) pursuant to the corporation’s notice of meeting of stockholders (with respect to business other than nominations); (ii) brought specifically by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof; or (iii) by any stockholder of the corporation who was a stockholder of record (and, with respect to any beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf such business is proposed or such nomination or nominations are made, only if such beneficial owner was the beneficial owner of shares of the corporation) at the time of giving the stockholder’s notice provided for in Section

1.

5(b) below, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complied with the notice procedures set forth in Section 5. For the avoidance of doubt, clause (iii) above shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations and submit other business (other than matters properly included in the corporation’s notice of meeting of stockholders and proxy statement under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “1934 Act”)) before an annual meeting of stockholders.

(b) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as is a proper matter for stockholder action under Delaware law, the Certificate of Incorporation and these Bylaws of the corporation, as the same may be amended or restated from time to time (the “Bylaws”), and only such nominations shall be made and such business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures below.

(i) For nominations for the election to the Board of Directors to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 5(a) of these Bylaws, the stockholder must deliver written notice to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation on a timely basis as set forth in Section 5(b)(iii) and must update and supplement such written notice on a timely basis as set forth in Section 5(c). Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth: (A) as to each nominee such stockholder proposes to nominate at the meeting: (1) the name, age, business address and residence address of such nominee, (2) the principal occupation or employment of such nominee, (3) the class or series and number of shares of each class or series of capital stock of the corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by such nominee, (4) the date or dates on which such shares were acquired and the investment intent of such acquisition, and (5) such other information concerning such nominee as would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such nominee as a director in an election contest (even if an election contest is not involved and whether or not proxies are being or will be solicited), or that is otherwise required to be disclosed pursuant to Section 14 of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including such person’s written consent to being named as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and (B) all of the information required by Section 5(b)(iv). The corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent director of the corporation (as such term is used in any applicable stock exchange listing requirements or applicable law) or on any committee or sub-committee of the Board of Directors under any applicable stock exchange listing requirements or applicable law, or that could be material to a reasonable stockholder’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such proposed nominee.

(ii) Other than proposals sought to be included in the corporation’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act, for business other than nominations for the election to the Board of Directors to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (iii) of Section 5(a) of these Bylaws, the stockholder must deliver written notice to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation on a timely basis as set forth in Section 5(b)(iii), and must update and supplement such written notice on a timely basis as set forth in Section 5(c). Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth: (A) as to each matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business

2.

desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the Bylaws, the language of the proposed amendment, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting, and any material interest (including any anticipated benefit of such business to any Proponent (as defined below) other than solely as a result of its ownership of the corporation’s capital stock, that is material to any Proponent individually, or to the Proponents in the aggregate) in such business of any Proponent; and (B) the information required by Section 5(b)(iv).

(h) Notwithstanding anything in Section 5(b)(iii) to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors in an Expiring Class is increased and there is no public announcement of the appointment of a director to such class, or, if no appointment was made, of the vacancy in such class, made by the corporation at least ten (10) days before the last day a stockholder may deliver a notice of nomination in accordance with Section 5(b)(iii), a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 5 and which complies with the requirements in Section 5(b)(i), other than the timing requirements in Section 5(b)(iii), shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions in such Expiring Class created by such increase, if it shall be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the corporation. For purposes of this section, an “Expiring Class” shall mean a class of directors whose term shall expire at the next annual meeting of stockholders.

(i) A person shall not be eligible for election or re-election as a director at an annual meeting, unless the person is nominated in accordance with either clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 5(a) and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5(b), Section 5(g), and Section 5(h), as applicable. Only such business shall be conducted at any annual meeting of the stockholders of the corporation as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of Section 5(a) and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5(b) and Section 5(g), as applicable. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the chairperson of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made, or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with these Bylaws, or the Proponent does not act in accordance with the representations in Sections 5(b)(iv)(D) and 5(b)(iv)(E), to declare that such proposal or nomination shall not be presented for stockholder action at the meeting and shall be disregarded, or that such business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nominations or such business may have been solicited or received.

(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, in order to include information with respect to a stockholder proposal in the proxy statement and form of proxy for a stockholders’ meeting, a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Nothing in these Bylaws shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to proposals and/or nominations to be considered pursuant to Section 5(a)(iii) of these Bylaws. Nothing in these Bylaws shall be deemed to affect any rights of holders of any class or series of preferred stock to nominate and elect directors pursuant to and to the extent provided in any applicable provision of the Certificate of Incorporation.

The corporation may postpone, reschedule or cancel any special meeting of stockholders previously scheduled by the Board of Directors.

(b) The Board of Directors shall determine the time and place, if any, of such special meeting. Upon determination of the time and place, if any, of the meeting, the Secretary shall cause a notice of meeting to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of these Bylaws.

In the event the corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder of record may nominate a person or persons (as the case may be), for election to such position(s) as specified in the corporation’s notice of meeting, if written notice setting forth the information required by Section 5(b)(i) and Section 5(b)(iv) of these Bylaws shall be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation not earlier than 120 days prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90^th) day prior to such meeting or the tenth (10^th) day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting.

6.

A person shall not be eligible for election or re-election as a director at the special meeting unless the person is nominated either in accordance with clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section 6(c). Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the chairperson of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Bylaws and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with the Bylaws, or if the Proponent does not act in accordance with the representations in Sections 5(b)(iv)(D) and 5(b)(iv)(E), to declare that such nomination shall not be presented for stockholder action at the meeting and shall be disregarded, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such nomination may have been solicited or received.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, a stockholder must also comply with all applicable requirements of the 1934 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to matters set forth in this Section 6. Nothing in these Bylaws shall be deemed to affect any rights of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the corporation’s proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Act; provided, however, that any references in these Bylaws to the 1934 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to nominations for the election to the Board of Directors to be considered pursuant to Section 6(c) of these Bylaws.

Section 7. Notice Of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, notice, given in writing or by electronic transmission, of each meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, such notice to specify the place, if any, date and hour, in the case of special meetings, the purpose or purposes of the meeting, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such records date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at any such meeting. Such notice may be given by personal delivery, mail, or with the consent of the stockholder entitled to receive notice by facsimile or electronic transmission. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the corporation. If sent via electronic transmission, notice is given when directed to such stockholder’s electronic mail address appearing in the records of the corporation. Notice of the time, place, if any, and purpose of any meeting of stockholders may be waived in writing, signed by the person entitled to notice thereof, or by electronic transmission by such person, either before or after such meeting, and will be waived by any stockholder by his or her attendance thereat in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy, except when the stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Any stockholder so waiving notice of such meeting shall be bound by the proceedings of any such meeting in all respects as if due notice thereof had been given.

7.

Section 8. Quorum. At all meetings of stockholders, except where otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation, or by these Bylaws, the presence, in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by proxy duly authorized, of the holders of a at least thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned, from time to time, either by the chairperson of the meeting or by vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares represented thereat and entitled to vote thereon, but no other business shall be transacted at such meeting. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by statute or by applicable stock exchange rules, or by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) on such matter shall be the act of the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, directors shall be elected by a majority of the votes of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote generally on the election of directors. Where a separate vote by a class or classes or series is required, except where otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws or any applicable stock exchange rules, a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or classes or series, present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy duly authorized, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter. Except where otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws or any applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of shares of such class or classes or series present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively (excluding abstention and broker non-votes) on such matter shall be the act of such class or classes or series.

Section 9. Adjournment And Notice Of Adjourned Meetings. Any meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time either by the chairperson of the meeting or by the vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, if any, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed present in person and may vote at such meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record as of the record date so fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 10. Voting Rights. For the purpose of determining those stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders or adjournment thereof, except as otherwise provided by applicable law, only persons in whose names shares stand on the stock records of the corporation on the record date, as provided in Section 12 of these Bylaws, shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders. Every person entitled to vote shall have the right to do so either in person, by remote communication, if applicable, or by an agent or agents authorized by a proxy granted in accordance with Delaware law. An agent so appointed need not be a stockholder. No proxy shall be voted after three (3) years from its date of creation unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy that is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the Secretary of the corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.

Section 11. Joint Owners Of Stock. If shares or other securities having voting power stand of record in the names of two (2) or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, tenants by the entirety, or otherwise, or if two (2) or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the Secretary is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the following effect: (a) if only one (1) votes, his or her act binds all; (b) if more than one (1) votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all; (c) if more than one (1) votes, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionally, or may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery for relief as provided in the DGCL, Section 217(b). If the instrument filed with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, a majority or even-split for the purpose of subsection (c) shall be a majority or even-split in interest.

Section 12. List Of Stockholders. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number and class of shares registered in the name of each stockholder; provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect all of the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the corporation. In the event that the corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the corporation. The list shall be open to examination of any stockholder during the time of the meeting as provided by applicable law.

Section 13. Action Without Meeting. No action shall be taken by the stockholders except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders duly called in accordance with these Bylaws, and no action shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent or by electronic transmission.

(a) participate in a meeting of stockholders; and

(b) be deemed present in person and vote at a meeting of stockholders whether such meeting is to be held at a designated place or solely by means of remote communication, provided that (i) the corporation shall implement reasonable measures to verify that each person deemed present and permitted to vote at the meeting by means of remote communication is a stockholder or proxyholder, (ii) the corporation shall implement reasonable measures to provide such stockholders and proxyholders a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters submitted to the stockholders, including an opportunity to read or hear the proceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with such proceedings, and (iii) if any stockholder or proxyholder votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of remote communication, a record of such vote or other action shall be maintained by the corporation.

Section 15. Organization.

(a) At every meeting of stockholders, the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, or, if a Chairperson has not been appointed, is absent, or refuses to act, the Chief Executive Officer, or if no Chief Executive Officer is then serving or the Chief Executive Officer is absent or refuses to act, the President, or, if the President is absent or refuses to act, a chairperson of the meeting designated by the Board of Directors, or, if the Board of Directors does not designate such chairperson, a chairperson of the meeting chosen by a majority of the voting power of the stockholders entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall act as chairperson of the meeting of stockholders. The Chairperson of the Board of Directors may appoint the Chief Executive Officer as chairperson of the meeting. The Secretary, or, in his or her absence, an Assistant Secretary directed to do so by the President, shall act as secretary of the meeting.

(b) The Board of Directors of the corporation shall be entitled to make such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and regulations of the Board of Directors, if any, the chairperson of the meeting shall have the right and authority to convene and (for any or no reason) to recess and/or adjourn the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairperson, are necessary, appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including, without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting, rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present, limitations on participation in such meeting

Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the chairperson of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.

ARTICLE IV

DIRECTORS

Section 16. Number And Term Of Office. The authorized number of directors of the corporation shall be fixed in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation. Directors need not be stockholders unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation. If for any cause, the directors shall not have been elected at an annual meeting, they may be elected as soon thereafter as convenient at a special meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose in the manner provided in these Bylaws.

Section 17. Powers. The business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation.

Section 18. Classes Of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the directors shall be divided into three classes designated as Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. The Board of Directors is authorized to assign members of the Board of Directors already in office to such classes at the time the classification becomes effective. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the initial classification of the Board of Directors, the term of office of the Class I directors shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the second annual meeting of stockholders following such initial classification, the term of office of the Class II directors shall expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At the third annual meeting of stockholders following such initial classification, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, each director shall serve until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. No decrease in the number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

Section 19. Vacancies.

(a) Unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, and subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by stockholders, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the Board of Directors, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders, provided, however, that whenever the holders of any class or classes of stock or series thereof are entitled to elect one or more directors by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, vacancies and newly created directorships of such class or classes or series shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by stockholders, be filled by a majority of the directors elected by such class or classes or series thereof then in office, or by a sole remaining director so elected, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and until such director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified. A vacancy in the Board of Directors shall be deemed to exist under this Bylaw in the case of the death, removal or resignation of any director.

Section 20. Resignation. Any director may resign at any time by delivering his or her notice in writing or by electronic transmission to the Board of Directors or the Secretary, such resignation to specify whether it will be effective at a particular time. If no such specification is made, it shall be deemed effective at the time of delivery to the Secretary. Acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective. When one or more directors shall resign from the Board of Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become effective, and each director so chosen shall hold office for the unexpired portion of the term of the director whose place shall be vacated and until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

Section 21. Removal.

(a) Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, neither the Board of Directors nor any individual director may be removed without cause.

(b) Subject to any limitation imposed by law, any individual director or directors may be removed with cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of directors.

(e) Waiver of Notice. The transaction of all business at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee thereof, however called or noticed, or wherever held, shall be as valid as though it had been transacted at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the directors not present who did not receive notice shall sign a written waiver of notice or shall waive notice by electronic transmission. All such waivers shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee, and, in addition, in the absence or disqualification of any member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such members or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

(d) Meetings. Unless the Board of Directors shall otherwise provide, regular meetings of the Executive Committee or any other committee appointed pursuant to this Section 26 shall be held at such times and places as are determined by the Board of Directors, or by any such committee, and when notice thereof has been given to each member of such committee, no further notice of such regular meetings need be given thereafter. Special meetings of any such committee may be held at any place which has been determined from time to time by such committee, and may be called by any director who is a member of such committee, upon notice to the members of such committee of the time and place of such special meeting given in the manner provided for the giving of notice to members of the Board of Directors of the time and place of special meetings of the Board of Directors. Notice of any meeting of any committee may be waived in writing or by electronic transmission at any time before or after the meeting and will be waived by any director by attendance thereat, except when the director attends such meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Unless otherwise provided by the Board of Directors in the resolutions authorizing the creation of the committee, a majority of the authorized number of members of any such committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a majority of those present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of such committee.
