shall be entitled to have a certificate, signed by, or in the name of the
Corporation by, the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, or the
President or a Vice President and the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer, or
the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation, certifying the
number of shares owned by such stockholder in the Corporation.

         Certificates may be issued for partly paid shares and in such case upon
the face or back of the certificates issued to represent any such partly paid
shares, the total amount of the consideration to be paid therefor, and the
amount paid thereon shall be specified.

         If the Corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class of
stock or more than one series of any class, the powers, designations,
preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of
each class of stock or series thereof and the qualification, 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, except as
otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware, in
lieu of the

                                       17
<PAGE>

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 powers, 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.

         6.2 FACSIMILE SIGNATURES. Any or all of the signatures on the
certificate may be facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar
who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate
shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such

certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or
certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person
claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When
authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Board of
Directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance
thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or
certificates, or such owner's legal representative, to advertise the same in
such manner as it shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond in such
sum as it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the
Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed.

transfer agent of the Corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or

transaction upon its books.

         6.5 FIXING RECORD DATE. In order that the Corporation may determine the
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or

without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other
distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in
respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any
other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date,
which shall not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the
date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) days prior to any other action.
The record date for determining stockholders entitled to give consent to
corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board
of Directors is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written consent
is given. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to
vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting;
provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the
adjourned meeting.

         6.6 REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS. The Corporation shall be entitled to
recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the owner
of shares to receive dividends and to vote as such owner, and to hold liable for
calls and assessments a person registered on its books as the owner of shares
and shall not be bound to

                                       19
<PAGE>

recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares
on the part of any person, whether or not it shall have express or other
notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of Delaware.

         7.1 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 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.

         7.2 RESERVES. Before payments 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
purposes 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.

         7.3 CHECKS. All checks or demands for money and notes of the
Corporation shall be signed by such officer or officers or such other person or
persons as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate.

         7.5 SEAL. The Board of Directors may adopt a corporate seal having
inscribed thereon the name of the Corporation and the year of its organization.
The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or

         7.6 INDEMNIFICATION. The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent
permitted by, and in the manner permissible under, the laws of the State of
Delaware any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or
proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason
of the fact that such person, his testator or intestate is or was a director of
the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation or served any other
enterprise as a director or officer at the request of the Corporation or any
predecessor of the Corporation. Expenses incurred by a director of the
Corporation in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding by
reason of the fact that such director is or was a director of the Corporation
(or was serving at the Corporation's request as a director or officer of another
corporation) shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by
or on behalf of such director to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be
determined that such director is not entitled to be indemnified by the
Corporation as authorized by relevant sections of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware.

         The foregoing provisions of this Article VII shall be deemed to be a
contract between the Corporation and each director who serves in such capacity
at any time while this Bylaw is in effect, and any repeal or modification
thereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to
any state of facts then or theretofore

                                       21
<PAGE>

existing or any action, suit or proceeding theretofore or thereafter brought
based in whole or in part upon any such state of facts.

         The Board of Directors in its discretion shall have power on behalf of
the Corporation to indemnify any person, other than a director, made a party to
any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, his
testator or intestate, is or was an officer or employee of the Corporation.

         The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive
of any other right to which any director may be entitled apart from the
provisions of this Article VII.

         7.7 BOOKS AND RECORDS. Any stockholder or any director shall have the
right to inspect the books and records of the Corporation to the full extent
permitted by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the General
Corporation Law of Delaware.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                                   AMENDMENTS

         8.1 These Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed or new bylaws may
be adopted by the stockholders or by the Board of Directors, when such power is
conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation at any
regular meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors or at any
special meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of Directors if notice of
such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new bylaws be contained in the
notice of such special meeting. If the power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws is
conferred upon the Board of Directors by the Certificate of Incorporation it
shall not divest or limit the power of the stockholders to

                                       22
<PAGE>

adopt, amend or repeal bylaws. Notwithstanding any provision in these Bylaws
to the contrary, in no event so long as the Governance Agreement shall be in
effect shall any provision of these Bylaws be altered, amended or repealed or
new bylaws adopted by the stockholders or by the Board of Directors in a
manner that would be inconsistent with the terms and conditions of the
Governance Agreement.
