present at any such meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the
Board. In the absence of a quorum, a majority of the directors present may
adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present. Notice

SECTION 8. Vacancies and Newly Created Directorships. Any vacancy
that shall occur in the Board of Directors by reason of death, resignation,

or any special meeting called for the purpose, and, except as otherwise
provided by the Certificate of Incorporation with respect to newly created
directorships filled by the Board of Directors, each director so chosen shall

who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the
committee. Any such committee, to the extent provided by the Board, shall have
and may exercise the powers of the Board of Directors in the management of the
business and affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the
Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it; provided,
however, that in the absence or disqualification of any member of such
committee or committees, the member or members thereof present at any meeting
and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum,

when required.

not receive any stated salary for their services, but may be paid for their
services such amounts as may be fixed from time to time by resolution of the
Board. Expenses of attendance, if any, may be paid for attendance at each
regular or special meeting of the Board. No such payments shall preclude
any director from serving the Corporation in any other capacity and
receiving compensation therefor. Members of special or standing committees
may be allowed like compensation for attending committee meetings.

ARTICLE V
Indemnification and Insurance
-----------------------------
SECTION 1. General Indemnification. Subject to the provisions of
SECTION 3 of this ARTICLE V, the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Corporation,
or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any
action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
SECTION 2. Indemnification in Actions by or in the Right of the
Corporation. Subject to the provisions of SECTION 3 of this ARTICLE V, the
Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to
be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in
the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Corporation and except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect to any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable (i) for any breach of
his duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which he derived an improper personal
benefit unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other
court shall deem proper.
SECTION 3. Determination of Standard of Conduct. Any
indemnification under SECTIONS 1 and 2 of this ARTICLE V (unless
8
<PAGE>
ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director or
officer is proper in the circumstances because he had met the applicable
standard of conduct set forth in said SECTIONS 1 and 2. Such determination shall
be made (1) by the Board of Directors, by a majority vote of a quorum consisting
of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2)
if such quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable and a quorum of
disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel (who may be
counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders.
SECTION 4. Successful Defense. If a director or officer of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise as a party to any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in SECTIONS 1 and 2 of this ARTICLE V, or
with respect to any claim, issue or matter therein (to the extent that a portion
of his expenses can be reasonably allocated thereto), he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith.
SECTION 5. Expenses During Proceeding. Expenses incurred
in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or
proceeding, or threat thereof, may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized by the Board
of Directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of the director or officer to whom or on whose behalf any such amount is paid to
repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be determined that he is entitled
to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this ARTICLE V.
SECTION 6. Exclusivity. The indemnification provided by this
ARTICLE V shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person
indemnified may be entitled under any other By-Law, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in
his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or
officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person.
SECTION 7. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his
status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify
him against such liability under the provisions of this ARTICLE V or of Section
145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
SECTION 8. Definitions. For the purposes of this ARTICLE V,
references to "the Corporation" include all constituent corporations absorbed in
a consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving corporation so
that any person who is or was a director or officer of such a constituent
corporation or is or was
9
<PAGE>
serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director or officer
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this ARTICLE V with
respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would if he had served
the resulting or surviving corporation in the same capacity. For purposes of
this ARTICLE V, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee benefit
plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person
with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at the
request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director, officer,
employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves
services by, such director, officer, employee, or agent with respect to an
employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest
of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be
deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation" as referred to in this ARTICLE V.
ARTICLE VI
Shares of Capital Stock and Their Transfer
------------------------------------------
SECTION 1. Certificates for Stock. Every owner of stock of the
Corporation shall be entitled to a certificate or certificates, to be in such
form as the Board shall prescribe, certifying the number and class of shares of
the capital stock of the Corporation owned by him. The certificates for the
respective classes of such stock shall be numbered in the order in which they
shall be issued and shall be signed in the name of the Corporation by the
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer or any Vice President and the
Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer, or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary
of the Corporation and its seal be affixed thereto; provided, however, that,
where such certificate is signed by a transfer agent or an assistant transfer
agent or by a transfer clerk acting on behalf of the Corporation and a
registrar, if the Board shall by Resolution so authorize, the signature of
such Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Vice President,
Treasurer, Secretary, Assistant Treasurer or Assistant Secretary and the seal
of the Corporation may be facsimile. In case any officer or officers of the
Corporation who shall have signed, or whose facsimile signature or signatures
shall have been used on, any such certificate or certificates shall cease to be
such officer or officers, whether by reason of death, resignation or otherwise,
before such certificate or certificates shall have been delivered by the
Corporation, such certificate or certificates may nevertheless be adopted by
the Corporation and be issue and delivered as though the person or persons who
signed such certificate or certificates, or whose facsimile signature or
signatures shall have been affixed thereto, had not ceased to be such officer or
officers. A record shall be kept by the Secretary, transfer agent or by any
other officer, employee or agent designated by the Board of the name of the
person, firm or corporation owning the stock represented by such certificates,
the number and class of shares represented by such certificates, respectively,
and the respective dates thereof, and in case of cancellation, the respective
dates of cancellation. Every certificate surrendered to the Corporation for
exchange or transfer
10
<PAGE>
shall be cancelled, and no new certificate or certificates shall be issued in
exchange for any existing certificate until such existing certificate shall have
been so cancelled, except in cases provided for in SECTION 5 of this ARTICLE VI.
SECTION 2. Classes and Series of Classes of Stock. If the
Corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more
than one series of any class, the designations, preferences and relative,
participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or
series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such
preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face
or back of the certificate which the Corporation shall issue to represent such
class or series of stock; provided that, in lieu of the foregoing requirements,
there may be set forth on the face or back of the Certificate which the
Corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock, a statement
that the Corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so
requests the designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or
other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the
qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.
SECTION 3. Transfer of Stock. Transfers of shares of the capital
stock of the Corporation shall be made only on the books of the Corporation by
the registered holder thereof, or by his attorney thereunto authorized by power
of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation, or
with a transfer agent appointed as in SECTION 4 of this ARTICLE VI provided, and
on surrender of the certificate or certificates for such shares properly
endorsed and the payment of all taxes thereon. The person in whose name shares
of stock stand on the books of the Corporation shall be deemed the owner thereof
for all purposes as regards the Corporation; provided, however, that whenever
any transfer of shares shall be made for collateral security, and not
absolutely, such fact, if known to the Secretary of the Corporation, shall be
so expressed in the entry of transfer.
SECTION 4. Regulations. The Board may make such rules and
regulations as it may deem expedient, not inconsistent with the Certificate of
Incorporation or these By-laws, concerning the issue, transfer and registration
of certificates for shares of the stock of the Corporation. It may appoint, or
authorize any principal officer or officers to appoint, one or more Transfer
Agents and one or more Registrars, and may require all certificates of stock to
bear the signature or signatures of any of them.
SECTION 5. Lost, Destroyed or Mutilated Certificates. In case of
loss, destruction or mutilation of any certificates of stock, another
certificate or certificates may be issued in place thereof upon proof of such
loss, destruction, or mutilation and upon the giving of a bond of indemnity to
the Corporation in such form and in such sum as the Board may direct; provided,
however, that a new certificate may be issued without requiring any bond when,
in the judgment of the Board, it is proper so to do.
SECTION 6. Dividends. Dividends upon the capital stock of the
Corporation, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, if
any, may be declared by the Board of Directors at any
11
<PAGE>
regular or special meeting, pursuant to law. Dividends may be paid in cash, in
property, or in shares of the capital stock, subject to the provisions of the
Certificate of Incorporation. Before payment of any dividend, there may be set
aside out of any funds of the Corporation available for dividends such sum or
sums as the directors from time to time, in their absolute discretion, think
proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing
dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any property of the Corporation, or
for such other purpose as the directors shall think conducive to the interest of
the Corporation, and the directors may modify or abolish any such reserve in the
manner in which it was created.
