Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty
nor less than ten, or in the case of a merger or consolidation, not less than
twenty, days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior to
any other action. 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.

or special meeting, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and
without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken,
shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the
minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action
at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and

<PAGE>


voted. Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by

have not consented in writing.

                                   ARTICLE III

than five (5) nor more than nine (9), as determined by the Board of Directors
from time to time. The directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of the
stockholders and each director shall hold office until his successor is elected
and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation or removal. Directors
need not be stockholders.

         SECTION 2. RESIGNATIONS. Any director, member of a committee or other
officer may resign at any time. Such resignation shall be made in writing, and
shall take effect at the time specified therein, or if no time is specified, at
the time of its receipt by the Board of Directors. The acceptance of a
resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

         SECTION 3. VACANCIES. Vacancies occurring on the Board of Directors or
on any committee of the Board, or new directorships to be filed by reason of an
increase in the number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors
then in office, or by a sole remaining director. Each director so chosen shall
hold office for the unexpired term and until his successor shall be duly chosen.

         SECTION 4. REMOVAL. Except as hereinafter provided, any director or the
entire Board of Directors may be removed either with or without cause at any
time by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of all the shares of
stock outstanding and entitled to vote at an election of directors, at a special
meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose, and the vacancies thus
created may be filled, at the meeting held for the purpose of removal, by the
affirmative vote of a majority in interest of the stockholders entitled to vote.

         If the holders of any class or series are entitled to elect one or more
directors by the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, these
provisions shall apply, in respect to the removal without cause of a director or
directors so elected, to the vote of the holders of the outstanding shares of
that class or series and not to the vote of the outstanding shares as a whole.

         SECTION 5. POWERS. The Board of Directors shall exercise all of the
powers of the corporation except such as are by law, or by the Certificate of
Incorporation of the corporation or by these By-Laws conferred upon or reserved
to the stockholders.

         SECTION 6. COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors may, by resolution or
resolutions passed by a majority of the whole board, designate one or more
committees, each committee to consist of two or more of the directors of the
corporation. The board may designate one or more directors as alternate members
of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any
meeting of the committee. 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, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act
at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

         Any such committee, to the extent provided in the resolution of the
Board of Directors, or in these By-Laws, shall have and may exercise all the
powers and authority 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; but no such committee shall have
the power or authority in reference to amending the Certificate of
Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to
the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the
corporation's property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a
dissolution of the corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or amending the
By-Laws of the corporation; and, unless the resolution, these By-Laws, or the
Certificate of Incorporation expressly so provide, no such committee shall have
the power or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of
stock.

         SECTION 7. MEETINGS. An annual meeting of directors for the purpose of
electing officers and for the transaction of such other business as may properly
come before the meeting, shall be held if a quorum is present, immediately after
and at the same place as the annual meeting of the stockholders, without notice
other than this by-law; or the time and place of such meeting may be fixed by
consent in writing of all the directors.

         Regular meetings of the directors may be held without notice at such
places and times as shall be determined from time to time by resolution of the
directors without further notice than said resolution.

         Special meetings of the board may be called by the Chairman of the
Board, the President or the Secretary on the written request of any director on
at least two days' notice to each director and shall be held at such place or
places as may be determined by the directors, or as shall be stated in the call
of the meeting.

         SECTION 8. COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT. Unless otherwise restricted by the
Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, members of the Board of
Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may
participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee, by means
of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which
all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. Such participation
in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

<PAGE>


         SECTION 9. QUORUM. A majority of the incumbent directors shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If at any meeting of the
board there shall be less than a quorum present, a majority of those present may
adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum is obtained, and no further
notice thereof need be given other than by announcement at the meeting which
shall be so adjourned. The vote of a majority of the directors present at a
meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors
unless the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws shall require the vote
of a greater number.

         SECTION 10. COMPENSATION. Directors shall not receive any stated salary
for their services as directors or as members of committees, but by resolution
of the board a fixed fee and expenses of attendance may be allowed for
attendance at each meeting. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to
preclude any director from serving the corporation in any other capacity as an
officer, agent or otherwise, and receiving compensation therefor.

         SECTION 11. ACTION WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action required or permitted
to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee
thereof, may be taken without a meeting, if a written consent thereto is signed
by all members of the board, or of such committee as the case may be, and such
written consent is filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the board or
committee.

corporation shall be a President, a Treasurer, and a Secretary. In addition, the
Board of Directors may elect a Chairman, a Vice Chairman, and any number of Vice
Presidents, Assistant Secretaries and Assistant Treasurers, as they may deem
proper. None of the officers of the corporation need be directors. The officers
shall be elected annually by the Board of Directors at the first meeting of the
Board of Directors held after each annual meeting of stockholders. Each officer
shall hold office until his successor is elected and qualified or until his
earlier death, resignation or removal. Any officer may resign any time upon
written notice to the corporation. Vacancies may be filled or new offices
created and filled by the Board of Directors. Any number of offices may be held
by the same person.

         SECTION 2. OTHER OFFICERS AND AGENTS. The Board of Directors may
appoint such other officers and agents as it may deem advisable, who shall hold
their offices for such terms and shall exercise such powers and perform such
duties as shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors.

         SECTION 3. REMOVAL. Any officer elected or appointed by the Board of
Directors may be removed by the Board whenever, in its judgment, the best
interests of the

corporation would be served thereby, but such removal shall be without prejudice
to the contract rights, if any, of the person so removed.

affairs and policies of the Corporation, including the day-to-day business of
the Corporation, and shall have the general powers and duties of supervision and
management usually vested in the office of Chief Executive Officer of a
corporation. In the absence of the Chairman of the Board of Directors, or if a
Chairman of the Board of Directors is not elected, the Chief Executive Officer
shall preside at all meetings of the shareholders and the Board of Directors.
Unless the Board of Directors shall otherwise authorize, the Chief Executive
Officer shall execute bonds, mortgages and other contracts on behalf of the
Corporation.

         SECTION 6. VICE PRESIDENT. The Vice Presidents shall assist the
President in the discharge of his duties as the President may direct and shall
perform such other duties as may be assigned to them by the President or by the
Board of Directors. In the absence of the President, the Vice Presidents shall
perform the duties of the President, and when so acting shall have all the
powers of and be subject to all the restrictions upon the President.

         SECTION 7. TREASURER. The Treasurer shall have the custody of the
corporate funds and securities and shall keep full and accurate account of
receipts and disbursements in books belonging to the corporation. He shall
deposit all moneys and other valuables in the name and to the credit of the
corporation in such depositaries as may be designated by the Board of Directors.

         The Treasurer shall disburse the funds of the corporation as may be
ordered by the Board of Directors, or the President, taking proper vouchers for
such disbursements. He shall render to the President and Board of Directors at
the regular meetings of the Board of Directors, or whenever they may request it,
an account of all his transactions as Treasurer and of the financial condition
of the corporation. If required by the Board of Directors, he shall give the
corporation a bond for the faithful discharge of his duties in such amount and
with such surety as the Board shall prescribe.

         SECTION 8. SECRETARY. The Secretary shall give, or cause to be given,
notice of all meetings of stockholders and directors, and all other notices
required by law or by these By-Laws, and in case of his absence or refusal or
neglect so to do, any such notice may be given by any person thereunto directed
by the President, or by the directors, or stockholders, upon whose request the
meeting is called as provided in these By-Laws. He

<PAGE>


shall record all the proceedings of the meetings of the stockholders and of the
directors in a book to be kept for that purpose, and shall perform such other
duties as may be assigned to him by the directors or the President. He shall
have the custody of the seal of the corporation and shall affix the same to all
instruments requiring it, when authorized by the directors or the President, and
attest the same.

         SECTION 9. ASSISTANT TREASURERS AND ASSISTANT SECRETARIES. Assistant
Treasurers and Assistant Secretaries, if any, shall assist the Treasurer and the

stockholder certifying the number and class of shares owned by him in the
corporation. Any or all of the signatures may be facsimiles.

         SECTION 2. LOST CERTIFICATES. A new certificate of stock may be issued
in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by the corporation, alleged
to have been lost or destroyed, and the directors may, in their discretion,
require the owner of the lost or destroyed certificates, or his legal
representative, to give the corporation a bond, in such sum as they may direct,
to indemnify the corporation against any claim that may be made against it on
account of the alleged loss of any such certificate, or the issuance of any such
new certificate.

         SECTION 3. TRANSFER OF SHARES. Prior to due presentment of a
certificate for shares for registration of transfer the corporation may treat
the registered owner of such shares as the person exclusively entitled to vote,
to receive notifications and otherwise to have and exercise all the rights and
power of an owner. Where a certificate for shares is presented to the
corporation with a request to register for transfer, the corporation shall not
be liable to the owner or any other person suffering loss as a result of such
registration of transfer if (a) there were on or with the certificate the
necessary endorsements, and (b) the corporation had no notice of any adverse
claims or has discharged any duty to inquire into any known adverse claims. The
corporation may require reasonable assurance that said endorsements are genuine
and effective and compliance with such other regulations as may be prescribed by
or under the authority of the Board of Directors. Where a transfer of shares is
made for collateral security, and not absolutely, it shall be so expressed in
the entry of transfer if, when the shares are presented, both the transferor and
the transferee so request.

corporation shall be signed by such officer or officers, agent or agents of the
corporation, and in such manner as shall be determined from time to time by
resolution of the Board of Directors.

         SECTION 8. NOTICE AND WAIVER OF NOTICE. Whenever any notice is required
to be given by these By-Laws, personal notice is not meant unless expressly so
stated, and any notice so required shall be deemed to be sufficient if given by
depositing the same in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the
person entitled thereto at his address as it appears on the records of the
corporation, and such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the day of
such mailing. Stockholders not entitled to vote shall not be entitled to receive

         Whenever any notice whatever is required to be given under the
provisions of any law, or under the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation of the corporation 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 thereto.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                     INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS
                              EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS



         SECTION 1. 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, 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 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. 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,
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
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 to the corporation unless and only to the extent that
the 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 the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery
or such other court shall deem proper. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
corporation shall not be required to indemnify any such person in connection
with a proceeding voluntarily initiated by such person unless the proceeding was
authorized by a majority of the entire Board of Directors.

         SECTION 3. Without limiting any right conferred by Sections 1 and 2 of
this Article, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party to any

<PAGE>


threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative of any type whatsoever, by reason of
the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, and is or was serving as a fiduciary of, or otherwise rendering
services to, any employee benefit plan of or relating to the corporation, shall
be indemnified by the corporation against expenses (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal relating
thereto, if he acted in good faith in a manner he reasonably believed to be not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to a criminal
action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful, except in the case of an action, suit or proceeding by or in the right
of the corporation, in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudicated
in such action, suit or proceeding, that such officer, director, employee or
agent is liable to the corporation and only to the extent that the judicial
determination specified in Section 2 of this Article shall be made.

         SECTION 4. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1, 2 and 3 of this Article
VII, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection therewith.

         SECTION 5. Any indemnification under Sections 1, 2 and 3 of this
Article VII, shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific
case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer,
employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1, 2 and 3. Such
determination shall be made (a) 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 (b) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable a
quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a
written opinion, or (c) by the stockholders.

         SECTION 6. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action,
suit or proceeding may 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 the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount if
it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the corporation as authorized in this Article.

         SECTION 7. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by
or granted pursuant to other Sections of this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any 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.

<PAGE>


         SECTION 8. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by,
or granted pursuant to, this Article shall, unless otherwise provided when
authorized or notified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director,
officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors or administrators of such person.

         SECTION 9. 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, 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.

         SECTION 10. For purposes of this Article, references to "the
corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any
constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in
a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would
have had the power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, employees
or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Article with
respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have with respect
to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
