The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation, for the

Section 4. Notice of Stockholders Business

At any annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be
conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be
properly brought before an annual meeting, the business, including any
nomination for election of directors, must be (i) specified in the notice of
meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the board
of directors, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the
direction of the board of directors, or (iii) otherwise properly brought before
the meeting by a stockholder who complies with the notice procedures set forth
in this Section 4.

For business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a
stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing
to the Secretary of the Corporation and such business must be a proper matter
for stockholder action. To be timely, such notice must be delivered to the
Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than
the close of business on the 90th day prior to the first anniversary of the
preceding years annual meeting. If the date of the annual meeting is more
than 30 days before or more than 60 days after such anniversary date, to be
timely any such notice must be so delivered 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 such meeting is first
made. 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. In the event that the number of directors is increased and
there is a public announcement of the increase or a public announcement naming
all of the nominees for director at least 100 days prior to the first
anniversary of the preceding years annual meeting, a stockholders notice
shall be considered timely if delivered within the time period described above.
If such public announcement is made later, a stockholders notice shall be
considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions
created by such increase, if it shall be delivered 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.

Any such notice by a stockholder shall set forth as to each matter the
stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting (i) a brief description of the
business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for
conducting such business at the meeting, (ii) the name and address of the
stockholder proposing such business, as they appear on the Corporations books,
and of the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made,
(iii) the class and number of shares of the capital stock of the Corporation
which are beneficially owned by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, if
any, and (iv) any material interest of such stockholder and such beneficial
owner, if any, in such business. If a stockholder proposes the nomination for
election of directors, such notice by the stockholder shall also set forth as
to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate (i) the name, age,
business address and residence address of such person, (ii) the principal
occupation or employment of such person, (iii) the class and number of shares
of the capital stock of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by such
person and

(iv) any other information relating to such person that is required to be
disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors pursuant to
Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) or
any successor regulation thereto, including without limitation such persons
written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to
serving as a director if elected and whether any person intends to seek
reimbursement from the Corporation of the expenses of any solicitation of
proxies should such person be elected a director of the Corporation. No person
shall be entitled to receive reimbursement from the Corporation of the expenses
of a solicitation of proxies for the election as a director of a person named
in such notice unless such notice states that such reimbursement will be sought
from the Corporation.

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 (i) by or at
the direction of the board of directors or (ii) by a stockholder who complies
with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 4. 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 gives timely notice thereof to the Secretary of the Corporation in
writing and setting forth the information required in the paragraph immediately
above. To be timely, any such notice must be delivered to the Secretary at the
principal executive offices of the Corporation 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.

For purposes of this Section 4, 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.

Notwithstanding anything in these bylaws to the contrary, no business
shall be conducted at any annual or special meeting except in accordance with
the procedures set forth in this Section. The chairman of the annual or special
meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that
business was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the
provisions of this Section and, if he should so determine, he shall so declare
to the meeting that any such business not properly brought before the meeting
shall not be considered or transacted.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4, 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
Section 4. Nothing in this Section 4 shall be deemed to affect any rights of
stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporations proxy
statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or the holders of any
series of preferred stock to elect directors under specified circumstances.

Section 5. Quorum

At any meeting of stockholders the presence in person or by proxy of
stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes thereat shall constitute
a quorum.

A meeting of stockholders convened on the date for which it was called may
be adjourned from time to time by vote of a majority of the shares present in
person or by proxy even if less than a quorum without further notice to a date
not more than 120 days after the original record date. At such reconvened
meeting at which a quorum shall be present, any business may be transacted
which might have been transacted at the meeting originally called. The
stockholders present at a duly organized meeting may continue to transact
business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough
stockholders to leave less than a quorum.

Section 6. Proxies

At all meetings of stockholders, a stockholder may vote the shares owned
of record by him either in person or by proxy executed in writing by the
stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Such proxy shall be
filed with the Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of the
meeting. No proxy shall be valid after eleven (11) months from the date of its
execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy.

Section 7. Voting

Each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock
held by him. At all elections of directors of the Corporation, each stockholder
shall have the right to vote, in person or by proxy, the shares owned of record
by him, for as many persons as there are directors to be elected and for whose
election he has a right to vote. A plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of
stockholders, duly called and at which a quorum is present, shall be sufficient
to elect any director. A majority of the votes cast at a meeting of
stockholders, duly called and at which a quorum is present, shall be sufficient
to take or authorize action upon any other matter which may properly come
before the meeting unless more than a majority of votes is required by law or
the Charter.

of Directors consistent with law. The Board of Directors may fill any vacancy
on a committee. Committees shall meet at the call of the Chairman of the Board
of Directors or the Chief Executive Officer or any two or more members. A
majority of the members of a committee shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business and the actions of a majority of the members present at
a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the action of the committee.
The members of any committee present at a meeting, whether or not they

Directors of any report by the committee. (as amended November 1, 2002)
