of Preferred Stock, special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by

adopted by a majority of the total number of directors which the Corporation
would have if there were no vacancies (the "Whole Board").

     SECTION 2.3. PLACE OF MEETING. The Board of Directors or the Chairman of
the Board, as the case may be, may designate the place of meeting for any annual

personally or by mail, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such
meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be delivered when deposited
in the United States mail with postage thereon prepaid, addressed to the
stockholder at his address as it appears on the stock transfer books of the
Corporation. Such further notice shall be given as may be required by law. Only
such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall

quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. The
Chairman of the meeting or a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn
the meeting from time to time, whether or not there is such a quorum. No notice
of the time and place of adjourned meetings need be given except as required by
law. The stockholders present at a duly called meeting at which a quorum is
present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the
withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

     SECTION 2.6. PROXIES. At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may

     SECTION 2.7. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDER BUSINESS AND NOMINATIONS.

     (A) ANNUAL MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS. (1) Nominations of persons for
election to the Board of Directors of the Corporation and the proposal of
business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting
of stockholders (a) pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting, (b) by or
at the direction of the Board of Directors or (c) by any stockholder of the
Corporation who was a stockholder of record at the time of giving of the
stockholder's notice provided for in this By-Law, who is entitled to vote at the
meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this By-Law.

          (2) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an
annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (c) of paragraph (A)(1) of
this By-Law, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to
the Secretary of the Corporation and such other business must otherwise be a
proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall
be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the
Corporation not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier
than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the first anniversary of
the preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that
the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than 60 days
after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so
delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such
annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th
day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which
public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the
Corporation. In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment of an
annual meeting commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder's
notice as described above. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (a) as to
each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection
as a director all information relating to such person that is required to be
disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election
contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and Rule
14a-11 thereunder (including such person's written consent to being named in the
proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (b) as to
any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a
brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the
reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in
such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose
behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and
the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made
(i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the
Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner and (ii) the class and number
of shares of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such
stockholder and such beneficial owner.

          (3) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph
(A)(2) of this By-Law to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors
to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Corporation is increased and
there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming all of the nominees
for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least
100 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding

year's annual meeting, a stockholder's notice required by this By-Law shall also
be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions
created by such increase, if it shall be delivered to the Secretary at the
principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of
business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is
first made by the Corporation.

     (B) SPECIAL MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS. Only such business shall be conducted
at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the
meeting pursuant to the Corporation's notice of meeting. Nominations of persons
for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of
stockholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to the Corporation's
notice of meeting (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (b)
provided that the Board of Directors has determined that directors shall be
elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a
stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided for in this
By-Law, who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the
notice procedures set forth in this By-Law. In the event the Corporation calls a
special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more
directors to the Board of Directors, any such stockholder may nominate a person
or persons (as the case may be), for election to such position(s) as specified
in the Corporation's notice of meeting, if the stockholder's notice required by
paragraph (A)(2) of this By-Law shall be delivered to the Secretary at the
principal executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the close of
business on the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the
close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or
the 10th day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the
date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of
Directors to be elected at such meeting. In no event shall the public
announcement of an adjournment of a special meeting commence a new time period
for the giving of a stockholder's notice as described above.

     (C) GENERAL. (1) Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the
procedures set forth in this By-Law shall be eligible to serve as directors and
only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of stockholders as shall have
been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in
this By-Law. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of
Incorporation or these By-Laws, the Chairman of the meeting shall have the power
and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be
brought before the meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this By-Law and, if any proposed
nomination or business is not in compliance with this By-Law, to declare that
such defective proposal or nomination shall be disregarded.

          (2) For purposes of this By-Law, "public announcement" shall mean
disclosure in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Service, Associated
Press or comparable national news service or in a document publicly filed by the
Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13,
14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act.

          (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this By-Law, a
stockholder shall also comply with all applicable requirements of the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set
forth in this By-Law. Nothing in this By-Law shall be deemed to affect any
rights (i) of stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the
Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or
(ii) of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under
specified circumstances.

     SECTION 2.8. PROCEDURE FOR ELECTION OF DIRECTORS; REQUIRED VOTE. Election
of directors at all meetings of the stockholders at which directors are to be
elected shall be by ballot, and, subject to the rights of the holders of any
series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, a
plurality of the votes cast thereat shall elect directors. Except as otherwise
provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these By-Laws, in all
matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of a majority
of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and
entitled to vote on the matter shall be the act of the stockholders.

     SECTION 2.9. INSPECTORS OF ELECTIONS; OPENING AND CLOSING THE POLLS. The
Board of Directors by resolution shall appoint one or more inspectors, which
inspector or inspectors may include individuals who serve the Corporation in
other capacities, including, without limitation, as officers, employees, agents
or representatives, to act at the meetings of stockholders and make a written
report thereof. One or more persons may be designated as alternate inspectors to
replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate has been
appointed to act or is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the Chairman of
the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each
inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath
faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and
according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall have the
duties prescribed by law.

     The Chairman of the meeting shall fix and announce at the meeting the date
and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which
the stockholders will vote at a meeting.

     SECTION 2.10. NO STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT. Subject to the
rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock with respect to such
series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the
stockholders of the Corporation must be taken at an annual or special meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation and may not be taken by any consent in writing
by such stockholders.

                                   ARTICLE III

                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     SECTION 3.1. GENERAL POWERS. The business and affairs of the Corporation
shall be managed under the direction of the Board of Directors. In addition to
the powers and authorities by these By-Laws expressly conferred upon them, the
Board of Directors may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all
such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of
Incorporation or by these By-Laws required to be exercised or done by the
stockholders.

     SECTION 3.2. NUMBER, TENURE AND QUALIFICATIONS. Subject to the rights of
the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified
circumstances, the number of directors shall be fixed from time to time
exclusively pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board.
The directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series
of Preferred Stock under specified circumstances, shall be divided, with respect
to the time for which they severally hold office, into three classes, as nearly
equal in number as is reasonably possible, with each director to hold office
until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. At each
annual meeting of stockholders, (i) directors elected to succeed those directors
whose terms then expire shall be elected for a term of office to expire at the
third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after their election, with each
director to hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected
and qualified, and (ii) if authorized by a resolution of the Board of Directors,
directors may be elected to fill any vacancy on the Board of Directors,
regardless of how such vacancy shall have been created.

     SECTION 3.3. REGULAR MEETINGS. A regular meeting of the Board of Directors
shall be held without other notice than this By-Law immediately after, and at
the same place as, the Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Board of Directors
may, by resolution, provide the time and place for the holding of additional
regular meetings without other notice than such resolution.

     SECTION 3.4. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special Meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be called at the request of the Chairman of the Board, the President or a
majority of the Board of Directors then in office. The person or persons
authorized to call special meetings of the Board of Directors may fix the place
and time of the meetings.

     SECTION 3.5. NOTICE. Notice of any special meetings of directors shall be
given to each director at his business or residence in writing by hand delivery,
first-class or overnight mail or courier service, telegram or facsimile
transmission, or orally by telephone. If mailed by first-class mail,

such notice shall be deemed adequately delivered when deposited in the United
States mails so addressed, with postage thereon prepaid, at least five days
before such meeting. If by telegram, overnight mail or courier service, such
notice shall be deemed adequately delivered when the telegram is delivered to
the telegraph company or the notice is delivered to the overnight mail or
courier service company at least twenty-four hours before such meeting. If by
facsimile transmission, such notice shall be deemed adequately delivered when
the notice is transmitted at least twelve hours before such meeting. If by
telephone or by hand delivery, the notice shall be given at least twelve hours
prior to the time set for the meeting. Neither the business to be transacted at,
nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors
need be specified in the notice of such meeting, except for amendments to these
By-Laws, as provided under Section 8.1. A meeting may be held at any time
without notice if all the directors are present or if those not present waive
notice of the meeting in accordance with Section 6.4 of these By-Laws.

     SECTION 3.6. ACTION BY CONSENT OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS. 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 all members of the Board or
committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or
writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.

     SECTION 3.7. CONFERENCE TELEPHONE MEETINGS. Members of the Board of
Directors, or any committee thereto, may participate in a meeting of the Board
of Directors or such committee by means of conference telephone or similar
communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the
meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall
constitute presence in person at such meeting.

     SECTION 3.8. QUORUM. Subject to Section 3.9, a whole number of directors
equal to at least a majority of the Whole Board shall constitute a quorum for
the transaction of business, but if at any meeting of the Board of Directors
there shall be less than a quorum present, a majority of the directors present
may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. The act of the
majority of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present
shall be the act of the Board of Directors. The directors present at a duly
organized meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment,
notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough directors to leave less than a quorum.

     SECTION 3.9. VACANCIES. Subject to applicable law and the rights of the
holders of any series of Preferred Stock with respect to such series of
Preferred Stock, and unless the Board of Directors otherwise determines,
vacancies resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification,
removal from office or other cause, and newly created directorships resulting
from any increase in the authorized number of directors, may be filled only by
the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, though less than
a quorum of the Board of Directors, and directors so chosen shall hold office
for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders at which the term of
office of the class to which they have been elected expires and until such
director's successor shall have been duly elected and qualified. No decrease in
the number of authorized directors constituting the Whole Board shall shorten
the term of any incumbent director.

     SECTION 3.10. EXECUTIVE AND OTHER COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors may,
by resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board, designate an Executive
Committee to exercise, subject to applicable provisions of law, all the powers
of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation
when the Board is not in session, including without limitation the power to
declare dividends, to authorize the issuance of the Corporation's capital stock
and to adopt a certificate of ownership and merger pursuant to Section 253 of
the General Corporation law of the State of Delaware, and may, by resolution
similarly adopted, designate one or more other committees. The Executive
Committee and each such other committee shall consist of two or more 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. Any such committee, other than the Executive
Committee (the powers of which are expressly provided for herein), may to the
extent permitted by law exercise such powers and shall have such
responsibilities as shall be specified in the designating resolution. 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 constituting a quorum, may unanimously appoint another

member of the Board to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or
disqualified member. Each committee shall keep written minutes of its
proceedings and shall report such proceedings to the Board when required.

     A majority of any committee may determine its action and fix the time and
place of its meetings, unless the Board shall otherwise provide. Notice of such
meetings shall be given to each member of the committee in the manner provided
for in Section 3.5 of these By-Laws. The Board shall have power at any time to
fill vacancies in, to change the membership of, or to dissolve any such
committee. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Board from appointing
one or more committees consisting in whole or in part of persons who are not
directors of the Corporation; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such committee shall
have or may exercise any authority of the Board.

     SECTION 3.11. REMOVAL. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series
of Preferred Stock with respect to such series of Preferred Stock, any director,
or the entire Board of Directors, may be removed from office at any time, but
only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80%
of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of Voting Stock,
voting together as a single class.

     SECTION 3.12. RECORDS. The Board of Directors shall cause to be kept a
record containing the minutes of the proceedings of the meetings of the Board
and of the stockholders, appropriate stock books and registers and such books of
records and accounts as may be necessary for the proper conduct of the business
of the Corporation.

committee or by the Chairman of the Board or President, as the case may be.

     SECTION 4.2. ELECTION AND TERM OF OFFICE. The elected officers of the
Corporation shall be elected annually by the Board of Directors at the regular
meeting of the Board of Directors held after the annual meeting of the
stockholders. If the election of officers shall not be held at such meeting,
such election shall be held as soon thereafter as convenient. Each officer shall
hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and shall
have qualified or until his death or until he shall resign, but any officer may
be removed from office at any time by the affirmative vote of a majority of the
Whole Board or, except in the case of an officer or agent elected by the Board
of Directors, by the Chairman of the Board or President. Such removal shall be

of Directors may be removed by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Whole
Board whenever, in their judgment, the best interests of the Corporation would
be served thereby. Any officer or agent appointed by the Chairman of the Board

or her successor, his or her death, his or her resignation or his or her
removal, whichever event shall first occur, except as otherwise provided in an
employment contract or under an employee deferred compensation plan.

     SECTION 4.10. VACANCIES. A newly created elected office and a vacancy in

by his attorney, upon surrender for cancellation of certificates for at least
the same number of shares, with an assignment and power of transfer endorsed

     The certificates of stock shall be signed, countersigned and registered in
such manner as the Board of Directors may by resolution prescribe, which
resolution may permit all or any of the signatures on such certificates to be in

officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

instruments may be executed and delivered in the name and on the behalf of the
Corporation by such officer or officers of the Corporation as the Board of

the votes which the Corporation may be entitled to cast as the holder of stock
or other securities in any other corporation, any of whose stock or other
securities may be held by the Corporation, at meetings of the holders of the
stock or other securities of such other corporation, or to consent in writing,
in the name of the Corporation as such holder, to any action by such other
