be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting (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 is a stockholder of
record at the time of giving of the notice provided for in this Bylaw, who shall

set forth in this Bylaw.

        For business to be properly brought before any meeting by a stockholder

facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business was not
properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the procedures
prescribed by this Section 12, and if he should so determine, he shall so
declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought before the
meeting shall not be transacted. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Section 12, a stockholder shall also comply with all applicable
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules
and regulations thereunder with respect to the matters set forth in this Section
12.

least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the shares represented and
voting at a duly held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting
affirmatively also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum).

        Any amendment of these bylaws changing the maximum or minimum number of

until his death, resignation or removal. Directors need not be stockholders of
the corporation.

        Section 3. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate of
incorporation, any vacancies and new created directorships resulting from any
increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority of
the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining
director, and the directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual
election at which the term of the class to which he has been elected expires and

the direction of its board of directors which may exercise all such powers of
the corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or

stockholders to fix the time or place of such first meeting of the newly elected
Board of Directors, or in the event such meeting is not held at the time and
place so fixed by the stockholders, the meeting may be held at such time and

written request of two directors unless the board consists of only one director,
in which case special meetings shall be called by the president or secretary in
like manner and on like notice on the written request of the sole director.

        Section 9. At all meetings of the board a majority of the directors
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a

quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, the
directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without
notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

        Section 10. Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of

incorporation or these bylaws, 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 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 the meeting.

                             COMMITTEES OF DIRECTORS

        Section 12. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a

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, 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

incorporation or these bylaws, the Board of Directors shall have the authority
to fix the compensation of directors. The directors may be paid their expenses,
if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid
a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated
salary as director. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the
corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor. Members
of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for attending
committee meetings.

        Section 1. Whenever, under the provisions of the statutes or of the
certificate of incorporation or of these bylaws, notice is required to be given

notice, but such notice may be given in writing, by mail, addressed to such
director or stockholder, at his address as it appears on the records of the
corporation, with postage thereon prepaid, and such notice shall be deemed to be
given at the time when the same shall be deposited in the United States mail.

said notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed
equivalent thereto. The written waiver need not specify 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. 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.

                                    ARTICLE V

owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his
legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall require
and/or to give the corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity
against any claim that may be made against the corporation with respect to the
certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

                                TRANSFER OF STOCK

        Section 4. Upon surrender to the corporation or the transfer agent of

distribution or 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,

date of such meeting, nor more than sixty (60) 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,

express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of
Delaware.

as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or for equalizing dividends, or

purposes as the directors shall think conducive to the interest of the
corporation, and the directors may modify or abolish any such reserve in the
manner in which it was created.

                                     CHECKS

        Section 3. All checks or demands for money and notes of the corporation

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

        Section 6. The corporation shall, to the fullest extent authorized under
the laws of the State of Delaware, as those laws may be amended and supplemented
from time to time, indemnify each of its agents made, or threatened to be made,
a party to an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or
investigative, by reason of being an agent of the corporation or a predecessor
corporation or, at the corporation's request, a director or officer of another
corporation, provided, however, that the corporation shall indemnify any such
agent in connection with a proceeding initiated by such agent only if such
proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation. The
indemnification provided for in this Section 6 shall: (i) not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under
any bylaw, agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise, both as to action in their official capacities and as to action in
another capacity while holding such office, (ii) continue as to a person who has
ceased to be an agent, and (iii) inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors
and administrators of such a person. The corporation's obligation to provide
indemnification under this Section 6 shall be offset to the extent of any other
source of indemnification or any otherwise applicable insurance coverage under a
policy maintained by the corporation or any other person.

        Expenses incurred by an agent of the corporation in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or was an
agent of the corporation (or was serving at the corporation's request as a
director or officer of another corporation) shall 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 such director to repay such amount if it
shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation as authorized by relevant sections of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation shall not be required
to advance such expenses to an agent who is a party to an action, suit or
proceeding brought by the corporation and approved by a majority of the Board of
Directors of the corporation which alleges willful misappropriation of corporate
assets by such agent, disclosure of confidential information in violation of
such agent's fiduciary or contractual obligations to the corporation or any
other willful and deliberate breach in bad faith of such agent's duty to the
corporation or its stockholders.

        The foregoing provisions of this Section 6 shall be deemed to be a
contract between the corporation and each agent who serves in such capacity at
any time while this bylaw is in effect, and any repeal or modification thereof
shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any
state of facts then or theretofore existing or any action, suit or proceeding
theretofore or thereafter brought based in whole or in part upon any such state
of facts.



                                       9

        The Board of Directors in its discretion shall have power on behalf of
the corporation to indemnify any person, other than a director, made a party to
any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he, his testator or
intestate, is or was an officer or employee of the corporation.

        To assure indemnification under this Section 6 of all directors,
officers and employees who are determined by the corporation or otherwise to be
or to have been "fiduciaries" of any employee benefit plan of the corporation
which may exist from time to time, Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of
Delaware shall, for the purposes of this Section 6, be interpreted as follows:
an "other enterprise" shall be deemed to include such an employee benefit plan,
including without limitation, any plan of the corporation which is governed by
the Act of Congress entitled "Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,"
as amended from time to time; the corporation shall be deemed to have requested
a person to serve an employee benefit plan where the performance by such person
of his duties to the corporation also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves
services by, such person to the plan or participants or beneficiaries of the
plan; excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan
pursuant to such Act of Congress shall be deemed "fines."

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                                   AMENDMENTS

        Section 1. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of
Incorporation, these bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed or new bylaws
may be adopted by the stockholders or a majority of the Board of Directors, when
such power is conferred upon the Board of Directors by the certificate of
incorporation, at any regular meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of
Directors or at any special meeting of the stockholders or of the Board of
Directors if notice of such alteration, amendment, repeal or adoption of new
bylaws be contained in the notice of such special meeting. The provisions set
forth in Article II, Sections 6 through 12; Article III, Section 1 and 2 and
Article VIII may not be altered, amended or repealed unless such repeal or
amendment is approved the affirmative vote of the holders of sixty-six and
two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the outstanding stock of the corporation
entitled to vote thereon or at least two-thirds of the "Continuing Directors."
Continuing Directors shall include (i) those Directors who were members of the
Board of Directors on the date of the merger of the corporation's California
predecessor with and into the corporation; and (ii) those Directors who were
nominated or appointed by a Board of Directors of which a majority of the
members were Continuing Directors.
