shall be held during the month of May in each year at such date and time as
shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors and stated

oversight or otherwise on the date herein provided, then a substituted
annual meeting may be held on any subsequent date prior to the close of the
corporate fiscal year, and any business transacted or elections held at such
meeting shall be as valid and effective as if transacted or held at the
regular annual meeting.  A written and signed application for such
substituted annual meeting may be made by any stockholder, and notice shall
be given therefor as hereinafter provided by these By-laws.

      At each annual meeting, the stockholders entitled to vote shall elect
those directors whose terms expire at such annual meeting, in accordance
with Article Sixth of the Certificate of Incorporation, by majority vote by
ballot, and they may transact such other corporate business as may properly
be brought before the meeting.  At the annual meeting any business may be

meeting of the stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat,
present in person or by proxy, by a majority vote, shall have power to
adjourn the meeting from time to time without notice other than announcement

matter, except as otherwise required by law, the Certificate of
Incorporation, or these By-laws.

a quorum, no other business shall be transacted.

      When any such meeting is adjourned for more than thirty (30) days,
notice of such adjourned meeting shall be given as provided in these By-

of an adjournment of the business to be transacted thereat, other than by
announcement at the meeting at which such adjournment is taken.

      Section 2.5.  Right to Vote; Proxies.  Each stockholder having the
right to vote at any meeting shall be entitled to one vote for each share of
stock held by said stockholder.  Any stockholder entitled to vote at any
meeting of stockholders may vote either in person or by proxy, but no proxy
which is dated more than three years prior to the meeting at which it is
offered shall confer the right to vote thereat unless the proxy provides
that it shall be effective for a longer period.  Every proxy shall be in
writing, subscribed by a stockholder or said stockholder's duly authorized
attorney in fact, and dated, but need not be sealed, witnessed, or
acknowledged.

      Section 2.6.  Voting.  At all meetings of stockholders all questions,
except as otherwise expressly provided for by statute, the Certificate of
Incorporation or these By-laws, shall be determined by a majority vote of
the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy.  Except as
otherwise expressly provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these
By-laws or the Board of Directors, at all meetings of stockholders, the
voting shall be taken by ballot, each of which shall state the name of the
stockholder voting and the number of shares voted by said stockholder, and,
if such ballot be cast by a proxy, it shall also state the name of the
proxy.  Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or

any business, notwithstanding that notice has not been given, provided a

restrictions then in force, the shares of stock of the Corporation shall be
transferable only upon its books by the holders thereof in person or by
their duly authorized attorneys or legal representatives and upon such
transfer the old certificates shall be surrendered to the Corporation by the
delivery thereof to the person in charge of the stock and transfer books and
ledgers or to such other person as the directors may designate by whom they
shall be canceled and new certificates shall thereupon be issued.  The
Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or
shares of stock as the holder in fact thereof and accordingly shall not be
bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share
on the part of any other person whether or not it shall have express or
other notice thereof save as expressly provided by the laws of Delaware.

      Section 5.5.  Record Date.  For the purpose of determining the
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders
or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in
writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or
other distribution or the 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 (60) days nor
less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty
(60) days prior to any other action.  If no such record date is fixed by the
Board of Directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of
business on the date next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if
notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day
on which the meeting is held; the record date for determining stockholders
entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a
meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is necessary, shall
be the day on which the first written consent is expressed; and the record
date for determining 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 any 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 5.6.  Transfer Agent and Registrar.  The Board of Directors
may appoint one or more transfer agents or transfer clerks and one or more
registrars and may require all certificates of stock to bear the signature
or signatures of any of them.

      Section 5.7. Dividends.

      1.  Power to Declare.  Dividends upon the capital stock of the
      Corporation, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of
      Incorporation, if any, may be declared by the Board of Directors at
      any regular or special meeting, pursuant to law.  Dividends may be
      paid in cash, in property, or in shares of the capital stock, subject
      to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and the laws of
      Delaware.

      2.  Reserves.  Before payment of any dividend, there may be set
      aside out of the funds of the Corporation available for dividends such
      sum or sums as the 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 interest of the Corporation,
      and the Directors may modify or abolish any such reserve in the manner
      in which it was created.

      Section 5.8.  Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates.  No certificates
for shares of stock of the Corporation shall be issued in place of any
certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed except upon
production of such evidence of the loss, theft or destruction and upon
indemnification of the Corporation and its agents to such extent and in such
manner as the Board of Directors may from time to time prescribe.

      Section 5.9.  Inspection of Books.  The stockholders of the
Corporation by a majority vote at any meeting of stockholders duly called,
or in case the stockholders shall fail to act, the Board of Directors shall
have power from time to time to determine whether and to what extent and at
what times and places and under what conditions and regulations the accounts
and books of the Corporation (other than the stock ledger) or any of them,
shall be open to inspection by stockholders; and no stockholder shall have
any right to inspect any account or book or document of the Corporation
except as conferred by statute or authorized by the Board of Directors or by
a resolution of the stockholders.

                                 Article VI

                     Miscellaneous Management Provisions

      Section 6.1.  Checks, Drafts and Notes.  All checks, drafts or orders
for the payment of money, and all notes and acceptances of the Corporation
shall be signed by such officer or officers, agent or agents as the Board of
Directors may designate.

      Section 6.2.  Notices.

      1.  Notices to Directors may, and notices to stockholders shall
      be in writing and delivered personally or mailed to the Directors or
      stockholders at their addresses appearing on the books of the
      Corporation.  Notice by mail shall be deemed to be given at the time
      when the same shall be mailed.  Notice to Directors may also be given
      by telegram or orally, by telephone or in person.

      2.  Whenever any notice is required to be given under the
      provisions of the statutes or of the Certificate of Incorporation or
      of these By-laws, a written waiver of notice, signed by the person or
      persons entitled to said notice, whether before or after the time
      stated herein, 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 is not lawfully called
      or convened.

      Section 6.3.  Authorization and Execution of Contracts.  The Board of
Directors, except as otherwise provided in the By-laws, may authorize any
officer or officers, agent or agents to enter into any contract or execute
any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation, and such
authority may be general or confined in specific instances.

      Section 6.4.  Conflict of Interest.  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 or committee
thereof which authorized the contract or transaction, or solely because his
or her votes are counted for such purpose, provided that the material facts
as to his or her relationship or interest as to the contract or transaction
are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee and
the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction
by the affirmative vote of a majority of the disinterested Directors, even
though the disinterested Directors be less than a quorum or provided that
the contract or transaction is otherwise authorized in accordance with the
laws of Delaware.  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.

      Section 6.5.  Voting of Securities Owned by this Corporation.  Subject
always to the specific directions of the Board of Directors, (a) any shares
or other securities issued by any other corporation and owned or controlled
by the Corporation may be voted in person at any meeting of security holders
of such other corporation by the President of the Corporation if he is
present at such meeting, or in his absence by the Treasurer of the
Corporation if he is present at such meeting, and (b) whenever, in the
judgment of the President, it is desirable for the Corporation to execute a
proxy or written consent in respect to any shares or other securities issued
by any other corporation and owned by the Corporation, such proxy or consent
shall be executed in the name of the Corporation by the President, without
necessity of any authorization by the Board of Directors, affixation of
corporate seal or countersignature or attestation by another officer,
provided that if the President is unable to execute such proxy or consent by
reason of sickness, absence from the United States or other similar cause,
the Treasurer may execute such proxy or consent.  Any person or persons
designated in the manner above stated as the proxy or proxies of the
Corporation shall have full right, power and authority to vote the shares or
other securities issued by such other corporation and owned by the
Corporation the same as such shares or other securities might be voted by
the Corporation.

           attainment of age 65 and prior to the first Annual Meeting after
           attainment of age 67 will thereupon be appointed to the status

           Board.

laws, the By-laws of the Corporation may be altered, amended or repealed at

stockholders by the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the stock
issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at such meeting, in accordance
with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and of the laws of
Delaware, provided notice of the proposed amendment, alteration or repeal is
mailed to each such holder at least ten days prior to such meeting.
