sooner displaced. If there are no directors in office, then an election of
directors may be held in the manner provided by statute. If, at the time of
filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in
office shall constitute less than a majority of the whole board (as constituted
immediately prior to any such increase), the Court of Chancery may, upon
application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at least ten percent of

vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by
the directors then in office.

        Section 3.  The business of the corporation shall be managed by or under
the direction of its board of directors which may exercise all such powers of 
the corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or

be exercised or done by the stockholders.

                            CERTIFICATES FOR SHARES

        Section 1.  The shares of the corporation shall be represented by a

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.

        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 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

                                     -20-

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.

        Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of
uncertificated stock, the corporation shall send to the registered owner thereof
a written notice containing the information required to be set forth or stated
on certificates pursuant to Sections 151, 156, 202(a) or 218(a) or 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.

        Section 2.  Any of or all the signatures on a 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 is
issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if he were
such officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

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 or
uncertificated shares, 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 his 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 OF STOCK

        Section 4.  Upon surrender to the corporation or the transfer agent of 
the corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by 
proper evidence of succession, assignation or authority to transfer, it shall be
the duty of the corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled 
thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books. 
Upon receipt of proper transfer instructions from the registered owner of 
uncertificated shares such uncer-

                                     -22-

<PAGE>
 
tificated shares shall be cancelled and issuance of new equivalent 
uncertificated shares or certificated shares shall be made to the person 
entitled thereto and the transaction shall be recorded upon the books of the 
corporation.

                              FIXING RECORD DATE

        Section 5.  In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders

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 nor less than ten days before the date of

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.
