         Section 2.5. QUORUM. Except as otherwise provided by law, the
Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders
the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of shares of stock having a
majority of the votes which could be cast by the holders of all outstanding

sufficient to constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the stockholders
so present may, by majority vote, adjourn the meeting from time to time in the
manner provided in Section 2.4 of these Bylaws until a quorum shall attend.
Shares of its own stock belonging to the Corporation or to another corporation,
if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of
such other corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation,
shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided,

stock, including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary
capacity.

         Section 2.6. ORGANIZATION. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided

Incorporation, or these Bylaws, any corporate action, other than the election of
Directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares entitled to vote on
that matter and represented either in person or by proxy at a meeting of
stockholders at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the stockholders
of the Corporation.

                  (b) Unless otherwise provided for in the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation, Directors will be elected by a majority of the
votes cast by the shares, present in person or by proxy, entitled to vote in the
election at a meeting at which a quorum is present and each stockholder entitled
to vote has the right to vote the number of shares owned by him or her for as
many persons as there are Directors to be elected. The Board of Directors may at
any time amend this provision to reduce the number of votes cast for the
election of a director to a plurality of the votes cast in the manner provided
immediately above.

                  (c) Except as otherwise provided by statute, the Certificate
of Incorporation, or these Bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders, each
stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote thereat, shall be entitled to
one vote for each share registered in his or her name on the books of the
Corporation.

         Section 2.8 PROXIES. Each stockholder entitled to vote or to express
consent or dissent without a meeting, may do so either in person or by proxy, so
long as such proxy is executed in writing by the stockholder himself or herself,
or by his or her attorney-in-fact thereunto duly authorized in writing. Every
proxy shall be revocable at will unless the proxy conspicuously states that it
is irrevocable and the proxy is coupled with an interest. A telegram, telex,
cablegram, or similar transmission by the stockholder, or as a photographic,
photostatic, facsimile, shall be treated as a valid proxy, and treated as a
substitution of the original proxy, so long as such transmission is a complete
reproduction executed by the stockholder. No proxy shall be valid after the

the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, any action to be taken at
any annual or special stockholders' meeting, may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote if a written consent or consents is/are
signed by the stockholders of the Corporation having not less than the minimum
number of votes necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which
all shares entitled to vote thereat were present and voted is delivered by hand
or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Corporation
to its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the Corporation
having custody of the books in which proceedings of stockholders' meetings are
recorded.

stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day
on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto. 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.

         Section 2.11. LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS ENTITLED TO VOTE. The Secretary

during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the
meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held,
which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting or, if not so
specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be
produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time
thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. The stock ledger
shall be the only evidence as to which stockholders are entitled to examine the
stock ledger, the list of stockholders or the books of the Corporation, or to

by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may
include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda
or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining

Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may
participate in a meeting thereof by means of conference telephone or similar

meetings of the Board of Directors a majority of the whole Board of Directors
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Except in cases in

given unless the meeting is adjourned for more than twenty-four hours. If the

         Section 3.12 REMOVAL. One or more or all the Directors of the
Corporation may be removed for cause at any time by the stockholders, at a
special meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose, provided however,
such Director shall not be removed if the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws

a sufficient number of shares cast against his or her removal, which if
cumulatively voted at an election of Directors would be sufficient to elect him
or her.

         Section 6.4.  TRANSFERS OF STOCK.

                  (a) Transfers of stock shall be made only upon the stock
transfer records of the Corporation, which records shall be kept at the
registered office of the Corporation or at its principal place of business, or
at the office of its transfer agent or registrar. The Board of Directors may, by
resolution, open a share register in any state of the United States, and may
employ an agent or agents to keep such register and to record transfers of
shares therein.

                  (b) Shares of certificated stock shall be transferred by
delivery of the certificates therefor, accompanied either by an assignment in
writing on the back of the certificates or an assignment separate from the
certificate, or by a written power of attorney to sell, assign and transfer the
same, signed by the holder of said certificate. No shares of certificated stock
shall be transferred on the records of the Corporation until the outstanding
certificates therefor have been surrendered to the Corporation or to its
transfer agent or registrar.

         Section 6.5. SHARES OF ANOTHER CORPORATION. Shares owned by the
Corporation in another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by such
officer, agent or proxy as the Board of Directors may determine or, in the
absence of such determination, by the President of the Corporation.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         Section 7.1. RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION. The Corporation shall indemnify
and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law as it
presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person who was or is made or
is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a
"proceeding") by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person for whom he or
she is the legal representative, 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 or of a
partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including
service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss
suffered and expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by such
person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be
required to indemnify a person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof)
initiated by such person only if the proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized
by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

         Section 7.2. PREPAYMENT OF EXPENSES. The Corporation shall pay the
expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending any proceeding in
advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that the payment of
expenses incurred by a Director or officer in advance of the final disposition
of the proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the
Director or officer to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately
determined that the Director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under
this Article VII or otherwise.

         Section 7.3. CLAIMS. If a claim for indemnification or payment of
expenses under this Article VII is not paid in full within sixty days after a
written claim therefor has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may
file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole
or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim.
In any such action the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that the
claimant was not entitled to the requested indemnification or payment of
expenses under applicable law.

         Section 7.4. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on any
person by this Article VII shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such
person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or
Directors or otherwise.

         Section 7.5. OTHER INDEMNIFICATION. The Corporation's obligation, if
any, to indemnify any person who was or is serving at its request as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be reduced by any amount such person
may collect as indemnification from such other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit enterprise.

         Section 7.6. AMENDMENT OR REPEAL. Any repeal or modification of the
foregoing provisions of this Article VII shall not adversely affect any right or
protection hereunder of any person in respect of any act or omission occurring
prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

Corporation inscribed thereon and shall be in such form as may be approved from
time to time by the Board of Directors.

         Section 8.3. WAIVER OF NOTICE OF MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS, DIRECTORS
AND COMMITTEES. Any written waiver of notice, signed by the person entitled to
notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed
equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a
waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for
the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the
transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or
convened. Neither the business to be transacted at nor the purpose of any
regular or special meeting of the stockholders, Directors or members of a
committee of Directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

         Section 8.4. INTERESTED DIRECTORS; QUORUM. No contract or transaction
between the Corporation and one or more of its Directors or officers, or between
the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other
organization in which one or more of its Directors or officers are directors or
officers, or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for
this reason, or solely because the Director or officer is present at or
participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which
authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or her or their
votes are counted for such purpose, if: (i) the material facts as to his or her
relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or
are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors
or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the
affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the
disinterested directors be less than a quorum; or (ii) the material facts as to
his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are
disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the
contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the
stockholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation
as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board of Directors,
a committee thereof, or the stockholders. Common or interested Directors may be
counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of
Directors or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

taken by the Board of Directors without a meeting and a record of all actions
taken by a committee of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Corporation

by the Board of Directors.
