                                  ARTICLE VI

                   INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     Section 1.  Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be
made a party to or is involved in or called as a witness in any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and any
appeal therefrom (hereinafter, collectively a "proceeding"), by reason of the
fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative,
is, was or had agreed to become a director of the Corporation or is, was or had
agreed to become an officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to employee benefit plans, shall be indemnified
and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted under the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), as the same now
exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only
to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader
indemnification rights than the DGCL permitted the Corporation to provide prior
to such amendment), against all expenses, liabilities and losses (including
attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties pursuant to the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and amounts paid or
to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in
<PAGE>

                                     -15-

connection therewith; provided, that except as explicitly provided herein, prior
to a Change in Control, as defined herein, a person seeking indemnity in
connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person against
the Corporation or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation
shall not be entitled thereto unless the Corporation has joined in or consented
to such proceeding (or part thereof).  For purposes of this Article, a "Change
in Control of the Corporation" shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) any
"Person" (as is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended) is or becomes (except in a transaction approved in advance
by the Board of Directors of the Corporation) the beneficial owner (as defined
in Rule 13d-3 under such Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Corporation representing 20% or more of the combined voting power of the
Corporation's then outstanding securities or (ii) during any period of two
consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute
the Board of Directors of the Corporation cease for any reason to constitute at
least a majority thereof unless the election of each director who was not a
director at the beginning of the period was approved by a vote of at least two-
thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning
of the period.

     Any indemnification under this Section 1 (unless ordered by a court) shall
be paid by the Corporation unless within 60 days of such request for
indemnification a determination is made (i) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such
proceeding, (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable, or even if obtainable a
quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel (who
may be the regular counsel of the Corporation) in a written opinion or (iii) by
the stockholders, that indemnification of such person is not proper under the
circumstances because such person has not met the necessary standard of conduct
under Delaware law; provided, however, that following a Change in Control of the
Corporation, with respect to all matters thereafter arising out of acts,
omissions or events prior to the Change in Control of the Corporation concerning
the rights of any person seeking indemnification under this Section 1, such
determination shall be made by special independent counsel selected by such
person and approved by the Corporation (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld), which counsel has not otherwise performed services (other than in
connection with similar matters) within the five years preceding its engagement
to render such opinion for such person or for the Corporation or any affiliates
(as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended) of the Corporation (whether or not they were affiliates when services
were so performed) ("Independent Counsel").  Unless such person has theretofore
selected Independent Counsel pursuant to this Section 1 and such Independent
Counsel has been approved by
<PAGE>

                                     -16-

the Corporation, legal counsel approved by a resolution or resolutions of the
Board of Directors prior to a Change in Control of the Corporation shall be
deemed to have been approved by the Corporation as required. Such Independent
Counsel shall determine as promptly as practicable whether and to what extent
such person would be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law and shall
render its written opinion to the Corporation and such person to such effect.
The Corporation agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel
referred to above and to fully indemnify such Independent Counsel against any
and all expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to
this Article or its engagement pursuant hereto.

     Section 2.  Expenses.  Expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by a
                 --------
person referred to in Section 1 of this Article in defending or otherwise being
involved in a proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the
final disposition of such proceeding, including any appeal therefrom, upon
receipt of an undertaking (the "Undertaking") by or on behalf of such person to
repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not
entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation.

     Section 3.  Right of Claimant to Bring Suit.  If a claim under Section 1
                 -------------------------------
hereof is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written
claim has been received by the Corporation or if expenses pursuant to Section 2
hereof have not been advanced within 10 days after a written request for such
advancement accompanied by the Undertaking has been received by the Corporation,
the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to
recover the unpaid amount of the claim or the advancement of expenses.  (If the
claimant is successful, in whole or in part, in such suit or any other suit to
enforce a right for expenses or indemnification against the Corporation or any
other party under any other agreement, such claimant shall also be entitled to
be paid the reasonable expense of prosecuting such claim.)  It shall be a
defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for
expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition where the required Undertaking has been tendered to the Corporation)
that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make it permissible
under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount
claimed. After a Change in Control, the burden of proving such defense shall be
on the Corporation, and any determination by the Corporation (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the
claimant had not met the applicable standard of conduct required under the DGCL
shall not be a defense to the action nor create a presumption that claimant had
not met such applicable standard of conduct.

         Section 4. Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any
                    -------------------------
person by this Article shall not be exclusive of any other right which such
person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation, By-Law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise. The Board of Directors shall have the
authority, by resolution, to provide for such other indemnification of
directors, officers, employees or agents as it shall deem appropriate.

         Section 5. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
                    ---------
insurance to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any expenses, liabilities or losses, whether or not the
Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses,
liabilities or losses under the DGCL.

         Section 6. Enforceability. The provisions of this Article shall be
                    --------------
applicable to all proceedings commenced after its adoption, whether such arise
out of events, acts, omissions or circumstances which occurred or existed prior
or subsequent to such adoption, 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 person. This Article shall be deemed to
grant each person who, at any time that this Article is in effect, serves or
agrees to serve in any capacity which entitles him to indemnification hereunder
rights against the Corporation to enforce the provisions of this Article, and
any repeal or other modification of this Article or any repeal or modification
of the DGCL or any other applicable law shall not limit any rights of
indemnification then existing or arising out of events, acts, omissions,
circumstances occurring or existing prior to such repeal or modification,
including, without limitation, the right to indemnification for proceedings
commenced after such repeal or modification to enforce this Article with regard
to acts, omissions, events or circumstances occurring or existing prior to such
repeal or modification.

         Section 7. Severability. If this Article or any portion hereof shall be
                    ------------
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the
Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each director and officer of the
Corporation as to costs, charges and expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement with respect to any proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including an action by
or in the right of the Corporation, to the full extent permitted by any
applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated and to
the full extent permitted by applicable law.

may be approved from time to time by the Board of Directors. The seal may be
used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or affixed or in any
other manner reproduced.

         Section 3. Waiver of Notice. Whenever any notice is required to be
                    ----------------
given under law or the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or these
By-Laws, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or persons entitled
to said notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed
equivalent to notice.

                                  AMENDMENTS

         These By-Laws may be altered, amended or repealed or new By-Laws may be
adopted by the Board of Directors. The fact that the power to amend, alter,
repeal or adopt the By-Laws has been conferred upon the Board of Directors shall
not divest the stockholders of the same powers.
