JPMorgan  Chase Bank (herein  called the Bank),  shall be held in the Borough of
Manhattan,  City of New York, State of New York, within the first four months of
each  calendar  year,  on such  date and at such  time and place as the Board of
Directors  (herein  called  the  Board),  may  determine,  for the  election  of
directors and the transaction of such other business as may properly come before
the meeting. Notice of such meeting, stating the purpose or purposes thereof and
the time when and the place where it is to be held and signed by the Chairman of
the Board  (herein  called  the  Chairman),  the Chief  Executive  Officer,  the
President,  a Vice  Chairman  of the  Board  or the  Secretary  or an  Assistant
Corporate  Secretary of the Bank, shall be served by personal delivery upon each

than 50 days before said meeting.

          Section 1.02. Special Meetings.  A special meeting of the stockholders
may be called  at any time by the  Board,  the  Chairman,  the  Chief  Executive
Officer, the President,  or a Vice Chairman of the Board, or upon the request in
writing of the holders of record of not less than 40% of the outstanding capital
stock.  Notice of any special  meeting,  stating the time,  place and purpose or
purposes thereof, shall be given by personal delivery to the stockholders in the
manner  provided in Section 1.01 for the giving of notice of annual  meetings of
stockholders.  In the case of any  meeting of  stockholders,  annual or special,
called for a purpose  requiring  other or further  notice,  such notice shall be
given as required by law.

          Section  1.03.  Quorum.  A majority of the  outstanding  common stock,
represented in person or by proxy,  shall  constitute a quorum at any meeting of

                                   ARTICLE II

                               Board of Directors

          Section  2.01.  Number.  The business and affairs of the Bank shall be
managed by or under the direction of a Board of Directors, of such number as may
be fixed from time to time by resolution  adopted by the Board,  but in no event
less than 7 or more than 25,  selected,  organized  and  continued in accordance
with the provisions of the New York Banking Law. Each director hereafter elected
shall hold office until the next annual  meeting of the  stockholders  and until
his

successor  is elected  and has  qualified,  or until his death or until he shall
resign or shall have been removed.

          Section  2.02.  Vacancies.  In case of any  increase  in the number of
directors,  the additional director or directors,  and in case of any vacancy in

entire Board, shall be elected by a majority of the directors then in office.

          Section 2.03. Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of the directors shall

Board. At such meeting, the directors shall, after qualifying,  elect from their
own number a Chairman of the Board, a Chief Executive  Officer,  a President and
one or more Vice  Chairmen of the Board,  and shall elect or appoint  such other
officers authorized by these By-laws as they may deem desirable, and appoint the
Committees  specified  in Article III hereof.  The  directors  may also elect to
serve at the pleasure of the Board, one or more Honorary Directors,  not members
of the Board. Honorary Directors of the Board shall be paid such compensation or
such fees for  attendance  at  meetings  of the  Board,  and  meetings  of other
committees of the Board, as the Board shall determine from time to time.

          Section 2.04. Regular Meetings. The Board shall hold a regular meeting
without notice at the principal  office of the Bank on the third Tuesday in each
month, with such exceptions as shall be determined by the Board, at such time as
shall be  determined  by the  Board,  unless  another  time or place,  within or
without the State,  shall be fixed by  resolution  of the Board.  Should the day
appointed for a regular  meeting fall on a legal  holiday,  the meeting shall be
held at the same time on the preceding day or on such other day as the Board may
order.

          Section 2.05. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board shall be
held  whenever  called  by  the  Chairman,  the  Chief  Executive  Officer,  the
President,  a Vice  Chairman of the Board,  the  Secretary  or a majority of the
directors at the time in office.  A notice shall be given as hereinafter in this
Section provided of each such special meeting, in which shall be stated the time
and place of such meeting, but, except as otherwise expressly provided by law or
by these By-laws, the purposes thereof need not be stated in such notice. Except
as otherwise  provided by law,  notice of each such  meeting  shall be mailed to
each director,  addressed to him at his residence or usual place of business, at
least two (2) days before the day on which such meeting is to be held,  or shall
be sent  addressed to him at such place by telegraph,  cable,  wireless or other
form of recorded  communication  or be delivered  personally or by telephone not
later than noon of the  calendar  day before the day on which such meeting is to
be held.  At any  regular or special  meeting  of the  Board,  or any  committee
thereof,  one or more Board or committee members may participate in such meeting
by means of a conference telephone or similar communications  equipment allowing
all  persons  participating  in the meeting to hear each other at the same time.
This type of participation  shall constitute  presence in person at the meeting.
Notice of any meeting of the Board shall not,  however,  be required to be given
to any director who submits a signed  waiver of notice  whether  before or after
the meeting,  or if he shall be present at such meeting;  and any meeting of the
Board shall be a legal meeting  without any notice  thereof having been given if
all the directors of the Bank then in office shall be present thereat.

further notice.

          Section 2.07.  Rules and  Regulations.  The Board may adopt such rules
and  regulations  for the  conduct of its  meetings  and the  management  of the
affairs of the Bank as it may deem proper, not inconsistent with the laws of the
State of New York or these By-laws.

          Section  2.08.  Compensation.  Directors  shall be entitled to receive
from the Bank  such  fees for  attendance  at  meetings  of the  Board or of any
committee,  or both, as the Board from time to time shall  determine.  The Board
may also likewise  provide that the Bank shall  reimburse  each such director or
member  of  such  committee  for any  expenses  paid  by him on  account  of his
attendance  at any such  meeting.  Nothing in this  Section  contained  shall be
construed to preclude any director  from serving the Bank in any other  capacity
and receiving compensation therefor.

                                   ARTICLE III

                                   Committees

a majority of the entire Board, shall appoint an Executive Committee which, when
the Board is not in session,  shall have and may  exercise all the powers of the
Board that lawfully may be delegated  including,  without limitation,  the power
and authority to declare  dividends.  The Executive  Committee  shall consist of
such number of directors as the Board shall from time to time determine, but not
less  than five and one of whom  shall be  designated  by the Board as  Chairman
thereof, as follows: (a) the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer,
the  President,  the Vice Chairmen of the Board;  and (b) such other  directors,
none of whom shall be an officer of the Bank,  as shall be appointed to serve at
the pleasure of the Board. The Board, by resolution adopted by a majority of the
entire Board,  may designate one or more  directors as alternate  members of the
Executive  Committee and the manner and  circumstances  in which such  alternate
members shall replace or act in the place of absent or  disqualified  members of
the  Executive  Committee.  The  attendance  of  one-third of the members of the
Committee or their  substitutes,  or the next highest  integer in the event of a
fraction, at any meeting shall constitute a quorum, and the act of a majority of
those present at a meeting thereof at which a quorum is present shall be the act
of the Committee.  All acts done and powers conferred by the Committee from time
to time shall be deemed to be, and may be  certified  as being done or conferred
under  authority  of the  Board.  The  Committee  shall  fix its own  rules  and
procedures,  and the minutes of the meetings of the Committee shall be submitted
at the next  regular  meeting of the Board at which a quorum is  present,  or if
impracticable  at the next such  subsequent  meeting.  The Committee  shall hold
meetings  "On Call" and such  meetings  may be  called  by the  Chairman  of the
Executive Committee, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the
President,  a Vice Chairman of the Board, or the Secretary.  Notice of each such
meeting of the Committee shall be given by mail,  telegraph,  cable, wireless or
other form of recorded  communication or be delivered personally or by telephone
to each member of the  Committee  not later than the day before the day on which
such meeting is to be held.  Notice of any such meeting need not be given to any
member of the Committee who submits a signed waiver of notice  whether


                                     - 3 -

before or after the meeting, or if he shall be present at such meeting;  and any
meeting of the  Committee  shall be a legal meeting  without any notice  thereof
having been given, if all the members of the Committee shall be present thereat.
In the case of any  meeting,  in the absence of the  Chairman  of the  Executive
Committee,  such member as shall be  designated by the Chairman of the Executive
Committee or the Executive Committee shall act as Chairman of the meeting.

          Section 3.02. Examining Committee. The Board, by resolution adopted by
a majority of the entire Board, shall appoint an Examining Committee composed of
not less than  three of its  members,  none of whom  shall be an  officer of the
Bank,  to hold office at its pleasure and one of whom shall be designated by the
Board as chairman  thereof.  The Committee shall make such  examination into the
affairs of the Bank and its loans and discounts and make such reports in writing
thereof as may be directed by the Board or  required  by the  Banking  Law.  The
attendance  of  one-third of the members of the  Committee,  or the next highest
integer in the event of a fraction,  at any meeting  shall  constitute a quorum,
and the act of a  majority  of those  present  at a meeting  thereof  at which a
quorum is present shall be the act of the Committee.

          Section 3.03. Other Committees.  The Board, by resolution adopted by a
majority  of the  entire  Board,  may  appoint,  from time to time,  such  other
committees  composed of not less than three of its members for such purposes and
with such  duties  and  powers as the Board may  determine.  The  attendance  of
one-third of the members of such other  committees,  or the next highest integer
in the event of a fraction,  at any meeting shall  constitute a quorum,  and the
act of a majority  of those  present  at a meeting  thereof at which a quorum is
present shall be the act of such other committees.

extent  permitted by applicable law as then in effect  indemnify any person (the

limitation,  as a party or a witness),  or is threatened to be made so involved,
in any threatened,  pending or completed  investigation,  claim, action, suit or
proceeding,  whether civil, administrative or investigative (including,  without
limitation,  any action,  suit or  proceeding  by or in the right of the Bank to
procure a judgment in its favor) (a  "Proceeding") by reason of the fact that he
is or was a  director,  officer,  employee  or agent of the  Bank,  or is or was

of another corporation,  partnership,  joint venture,  trust or other enterprise

such  Proceeding.  Such  indemnification  shall be a  contract  right  and shall
include the right to receive payment in advance of any expenses  incurred by the
Indemnitee in connection with such Proceeding, consistent with the provisions of
applicable law as then in effect.

with respect to an employee benefit plan, its  participants,  or  beneficiaries;

stockholders or disinterested  directors or otherwise,  both as to action in his

not in limitation,  of the foregoing  provisions,  the following  procedures and
remedies  shall apply with respect to  advancement  of expenses and the right to
indemnification under this Article VII:

          (a) Advancement of Expenses. All reasonable expenses incurred by or on
behalf of the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding  shall be advanced to
the Indemnitee by the Bank within twenty (20) days after the receipt by the Bank
of a statement or  statements  from the  Indemnitee  requesting  such advance or
advances from time to time,  whether prior to or after final disposition of such
Proceeding.  Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the expenses
incurred by the Indemnitee  and, if required by law at the time of such advance,
shall  include  or be  accompanied  by an  undertaking  by or on  behalf  of the
Indemnitee  to repay the  amounts  advanced  if,  and to the  extent,  it should
ultimately be determined  that the  Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified
against such expenses.

          (b) Written  Request for  Indemnification.  To obtain  indemnification
under this Article VII, an Indemnitee  shall submit to the Secretary of the Bank
a written request, including such documentation and information as is reasonably
available to the Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to determine whether and to
what  extent the  Indemnitee  is entitled to  indemnification  (the  "Supporting
Documentation").   The   determination  of  the   Indemnitee's   entitlement  to
indemnification shall be made within a reasonable time after receipt by the Bank
of  the  written  request  for  indemnification  together  with  the  Supporting
Documentation.  The Secretary of the Bank shall, promptly upon receipt of such a
request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that the Indemnitee has
requested indemnification.

          (c) Procedure  for  Determination.  The  Indemnitee's  entitlement  to
indemnification under this Article VII shall be determined (i) by the Board by a
majority vote of a quorum (as defined in Article II of these By-laws) consisting
of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) if
such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested
directors so directs,  by  independent  legal counsel in a written  opinion,  or
(iii)  by  the  stockholders,  but  only  if a  majority  of  the  disinterested
directors,  if they  constitute  a quorum of the


                                      -8-

<PAGE>

Board,  presents the issue of entitlement to indemnification to the stockholders
for their determination.

meeting of the Board by vote of a majority of the entire  Board,  provided  that
written notice of any such proposed action shall be given to each director prior

repeal shall have been given at the preceding meeting of the Board.
