                                   ARTICLE VII

                                    Indemnity

      Section 1. 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 (including any action
by or in the right of the Corporation), by reason of the fact that such person
is or was a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be indemnified by
the Corporation against expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in 


                                       11

settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, to the maximum extent permitted by, and in the
manner provided by, the Georgia Business Corporation Code.

      Section 2. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized on behalf of the
Corporation to enter indemnity agreements between the Corporation and any
director or officer of the Corporation, or any person serving at the request of
the Corporation as a director, officer, trustee, agent or fiduciary of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust or
enterprise, in form and content acceptable to the Board and substantially in the
form of agreement submitted to and approved by the shareholders of the
Corporation. Such agreements may provide that the Corporation shall indemnify
such persons and provide for procedural rights intended to assure that
appropriate indemnification is available against expenses (including reasonable
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding. No indemnification may be made for liability (i) for any
appropriation, in violation of a director's duties, of any business opportunity
of the Corporation, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or constituting
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for the types of
liability set forth in Section 14-2-832 of the Georgia Business Corporation
Code, or (iv) for any transaction from which the person derived an improper
personal benefit.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                              Amendment of By-laws

      The Board of Directors shall have the power to alter, amend or repeal the
By-laws or adopt new by-laws, but any by-laws adopted by the Board of Directors
may be altered, amended or repealed and new by-laws adopted by the shareholders.
The shareholders may prescribe that any by-law or by-laws adopted by them,
including, without limitation, a by-law establishing the number of Directors,
shall not be altered, amended or repealed by the Board of Directors. Action by
the Board of Directors with respect to the By-laws shall be taken by an
affirmative vote of a majority of all of the Directors then in office. Action by
the shareholders with respect to the By-laws shall be taken by an affirmative
vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at an election of Directors.

      Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least 75% of the voting power of all shares of the Corporation
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a
single class, shall be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision
inconsistent with, Section 2 or l3 of Article II of these By-laws, or this
sentence.
