not determined a date and time, the annual meeting in that year shall be held on

          SECTION 2.2. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the stockholders of
the corporation may be called by the president or by the board of directors and
shall be called promptly by or at the direction of the secretary at the request
in writing of the holders of outstanding shares of stock of the corporation
having not less than 60% of the voting power of all of the outstanding shares of
stock of the corporation (considered as a single class) entitled to vote at
elections of directors, provided that such request shall state the purpose or
purposes of the proposed meeting, or as otherwise required by the certificate of
incorporation.

          SECTION 2.3. PLACE OF MEETINGS. The board of directors may designate
any place, either within or without the State of Delaware, as the place of
meeting for any annual meeting or for any special meeting called by the board of
directors, but if no designation is made, or if a special meeting be otherwise
called, the place of meeting shall be the principal business office of the
corporation; provided, however, that for any meeting of the stockholders for
which a waiver of notice designating a place is signed by all of the
stockholders, then that shall be the place for the holding of such meeting.

          SECTION 2.4. NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written or printed notice stating the
place, date and hour of the meeting of the stockholders and, in the case of a
special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall
be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting, not less
than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, or in the case of
a meeting called for the purpose of acting upon a merger or consolidation not
less than 20 nor more than 60 days before the meeting. Such notice shall be
given by or at the direction of the secretary. If mailed, such notice shall be
deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail addressed to the
stockholder at his or her address as it appears on the records of the
corporation, with postage thereon prepaid. If delivered (rather than mailed) to
such address, such notice shall be deemed to be given when so delivered.

          When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not
be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at
the meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless the adjournment is for
more than 30 days or unless a new record date is fixed for the adjourned
meeting.

          SECTION 2.5. WAIVER OF NOTICE. A waiver of notice in writing signed by
a stockholder entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated
therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice. Attendance of
a stockholder in person or by proxy at a meeting of stockholders shall
constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the stockholder or his
or her proxy attends the 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 2.6. MEETING OF ALL STOCKHOLDERS. If all of the stockholders
shall meet at any time and place, either within or without the State of
Delaware, and shall, in writing signed by all of the stockholders, waive notice
of, and consent to the holding of, a meeting at such time and place, such
meeting shall be valid without call or notice, and at such meeting any corporate
action may be taken.

          SECTION 2.7. RECORD DATES.

          (a)  In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any
adjournment thereof, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record
date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date
is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall not be more
than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no 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 day 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. A determination of stockholders
of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 3

<PAGE>



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.

          (b)  In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board
of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date
upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of
directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon
which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of
directors. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors, the
record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action
in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is
required by this chapter, shall be the first date on which a signed written
consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to
the corporation at its registered office in the State of Delaware or at its
principal place of business. If no record date has been fixed by the board of
directors and prior action by the board of directors is required by this
chapter, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to
corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business
on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such
prior action.

          (c)  In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment
of any rights or the stockholders 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 a record date, which record date
shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is
adopted, and which record date shall not be more than sixty days prior to such
action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders
for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the
board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 4

<PAGE>



          (d)  Only those who shall be stockholders of record on the record date
so fixed as aforesaid shall be entitled to such notice of, and to vote at, such
meeting and any adjournment thereof, or to consent to such corporate action in
writing, or to receive payment of such dividend or other distribution, or to
receive such allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights, as the case may
be, notwithstanding the transfer of any stock on the books of the corporation
after the applicable record date.

          SECTION 2.8. LISTS OF STOCKHOLDERS. The officer who has charge of the
stock ledger of the corporation shall prepare and make, at least 10 days before
each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to
vote thereat, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of and the
number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be
open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the
meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days prior
to the meeting, either at a place within the municipality 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 said meeting is to be held, and the list
shall be produced and kept at the time and place of meeting during the whole
time thereof, for inspection by any stockholder who may be present.

          SECTION 2.9. QUORUM AND VOTE REQUIRED FOR ACTION. Except as otherwise
provided in the certificate of incorporation of the corporation, the holders of
stock of the corporation having a majority of the total votes which all of the
outstanding stock of the corporation would be entitled to cast at the meeting,
when present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of
the stockholders; provided, however, that where a separate vote by a class or
classes is required, the holders of stock of such class or classes having a
majority of the total votes which all of the outstanding stock of such class or
classes would be entitled to cast at the meeting, when present in person or by
proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to the
vote on that


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 5

<PAGE>



matter; provided, further, that if a quorum is not present, then holders who are
present in person or by proxy representing a majority of the votes cast may
adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice and where a
separate vote by a class or classes is required, then holders of shares of such
class or classes who are present in person or by proxy representing a majority
of the votes of such class or classes cast may adjourn the meeting with respect
to the vote on that matter from time to time without further notice. If a quorum
is present at any meeting of the stockholders, (a) in all matters other than the
election of directors, a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by those
stockholders present in person or by proxy shall be the act of the stockholders
except where a separate vote by class or classes is required, in which case a
majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the stockholders of such class or
classes present in person or by proxy shall be the act of the stockholders of
such class or classes, and (b) each director shall be elected by a plurality of
the votes entitled to be cast by those stockholders present in person or
represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of such
director, unless, in each case, a different number of votes is required by
statute or the certificate or incorporation of the corporation. At any adjourned
meeting at which a quorum is present, any business may be transacted which might
have been transacted at the original meeting. Withdrawal of stockholders from
any meeting shall not cause failure of a duly constituted quorum at that
meeting.

          SECTION 2.10. PROXIES.

          (a)  Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of the
stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him by
proxy, but no proxy shall be valid after three years from its date unless
otherwise provided in the proxy.


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 6

<PAGE>



          (b)  Without limiting the manner in which a stockholder may authorize
another person or persons to act for him as a proxy pursuant to subsection (a)
of this Section, the following shall constitute a valid means by which a
stockholder may grant such authority.

               (1)  A stockholder may execute a writing authorizing another
person or persons to act for him as proxy. Execution may be accomplished by the
stockholder or his authorized officer, director, employee or agent signing such
writing or causing his or her signature to be affixed to such writing by any
reasonable means including, but not limited to, by facsimile signature.

               (2)  A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act
for him as proxy by transmitting or authorizing the transmission of a telegram,
cablegram, or other means of electronic transmission to the person who will be
the holder of the proxy or to a proxy solicitation firm, proxy support service
organization or like agent duly authorized by the person who will be the holder
of the proxy to receive such transmission, provided that any such telegram,
cablegram or other means of electronic transmission must either set forth or be
submitted with information from which it can be determined that the telegram,
cablegram or other electronic transmission was authorized by the stockholder. If
it is determined that such telegrams, cablegrams or other electronic
transmissions are valid, the inspectors or, if there are no inspectors, such
other persons making that determination shall specify the information upon which
they relied.

          (c)  Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable
reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to subsection (b)
of this Section may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing or
transmission for any and all purposes for which the original writing or
transmission could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication
or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original
writing or transmission.

          SECTION 2.11. VOTING OF SHARES. Each stockholder of the corporation
shall be entitled to such vote (in person or by proxy) for each share of stock
having voting power held of record by such


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 7

<PAGE>



stockholder as shall be provided in the certificate of incorporation of the
corporation or, absent provision therein fixing or denying voting rights, shall
be entitled to one vote per share.

          SECTION 2.12. VOTING BY BALLOT. Any question or any election at a
meeting of the stockholders may be decided by voice vote unless the presiding
officer shall order that voting be by ballot or unless otherwise provided in the
certificate of incorporation of the corporation or required by statute.

          SECTION 2.13. INSPECTORS. At any meeting of the stockholders the
presiding officer may, or upon the request of any stockholder shall, appoint one
or more persons as inspectors for such meeting. Such inspectors shall ascertain
and report the number of shares represented at the meeting, based upon their
determination of the validity and effect of proxies; count all votes and report
the results; and do such other acts as are proper to conduct the election and
voting with impartiality and fairness to all the stockholders. Each report of an
inspector shall be in writing and signed by him or a majority of them if there
is more than one inspector acting at such meeting. If there is more than one
inspector, the report of a majority shall be the report of the inspectors. The
report of the inspector or inspectors on the number of shares represented at the
meeting and the results of the voting shall be prima facie evidence thereof.

          SECTION 2.14. INFORMAL ACTION. Any corporate action upon which a vote
of stockholders is required or permitted may be taken without a meeting, without
prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the
action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not
less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or
take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were
present and voted and shall be delivered to the corporation at the office of its
registered agent within the State of Delaware or at its principal place of
business. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each
stockholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to
take the corporate action referred to therein unless, within sixty days of the
earliest dated consent delivered to the


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 8

<PAGE>



corporation, written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take
action are delivered to the corporation at the office of its registered agent
within the State of Delaware or at its principal place of business. Prompt
notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than
unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not so
consented in writing.

                                    ARTICLE 3
                                    DIRECTORS

          SECTION 3.1. POWERS. The business and affairs of the corporation shall
be managed under the direction of its board of directors which may do all such
lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the certificate of
incorporation of the corporation or by these by-laws directed or required to be
exercised or done by the stockholders.

          SECTION 3.2. NUMBER, ELECTION, TERM OF OFFICE AND QUALIFICATIONS. The
number of directors which shall constitute the whole board shall consist of not
less than four (4) nor more than twelve (12) persons. The exact number of
directors within the minimum and maximum limitations specified in the preceding
sentence shall be fixed from time to time by the board of directors pursuant to
a resolution adopted by two-thirds of the entire board of directors, but no
decrease in the number of directors constituting the board of directors shall
shorten the term of any incumbent director. Directors shall be elected annually
to serve for one year terms. Directors need not be stockholders.

          SECTION 3.3. VACANCIES. Except as provided in the certificate of
incorporation of the corporation, vacancies occurring in the board of directors
and newly-created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized
number of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office,
although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. Any director
elected in accordance with this paragraph shall hold office until the next
annual meeting of the shareholders or


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 9

<PAGE>



until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal in a manner permitted by
statute or these by-laws.

          SECTION 3.4. REGULAR MEETINGS. A regular meeting of the board of
directors shall be held immediately following the close of, and at the same
place as, each annual meeting of stockholders. No notice of any such meeting,
other than this by-law, shall be necessary in order legally to constitute the
meeting, provided a quorum shall be present. In the event such meeting is not
held at such time and place, the meeting may be held at such time and place as
shall be specified in a notice given as hereinafter provided for special
meetings of the board of directors or as shall be specified in a written waiver
signed by all of the directors. The board of directors may provide, by
resolution, the time and place for the holding of additional regular meetings
without notice other than such resolution.

          SECTION 3.5. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the board may be
called by the president or any three directors. The person or persons calling a
special meeting of the board shall fix the time and place at which the meeting
shall be held and such time and place shall be specified in the notice of such
meeting.

          SECTION 3.6. NOTICE. Notice of any special meeting of the board of
directors shall be given at least two business days previous thereto by written
notice to each director at his or her business address or such other address as
he or she may have advised the secretary of the corporation to use for such
purpose. If delivered, such notice shall be deemed to be given when delivered to
such address or to the person to be notified. If mailed, such notice shall be
deemed to be given four business days after deposit in the United States mail so
addressed, with postage thereon prepaid. If given by telegraph, such notice
shall be deemed to be given the next business day following the day the telegram
is given to the telegraph company. Such notice may also be given by telephone or
other means not specified herein, and in each such case shall be deemed to be
given when actually received by the director to be notified. Notice of any
meeting Of the board of directors shall set forth the time


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 10

purpose of, any meeting of the board of directors (regular or special) need be
specified in the notice or waiver of notice of such meeting.

          SECTION 3.7. WAIVER OF NOTICE. A written waiver of notice, signed by a
director entitled to notice of a meeting of the board of directors or of a
committee of such board of which the director is a member, whether before or
after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such
notice to that director. Attendance of a director at a meeting of the board of
directors or of a committee of such board of which the director is a member
shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except when the director
attends the 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 3.8. QUORUM. At all meetings of the board of directors, a
majority of the number of directors which constitute the whole board shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of
the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act
of the board of directors except as may be otherwise specifically provided by
statute, the certificate of incorporation of the corporation or these by-laws.
If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the board of directors, a
majority of 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 3.9. ATTENDANCE BY CONFERENCE TELEPHONE. Members of the board
of directors or any committee designated by the board may participate in a
meeting of such board or 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 such a meeting.

<PAGE>



          SECTION 3.10. PRESUMPTION OF ASSENT. A director of the corporation who
is present at a duly convened meeting of the board of directors at which action
on any corporate matter is taken shall be conclusively presumed to have assented
to the action taken unless his or her dissent shall be entered in the minutes of
the meeting or unless he or she shall file his or her written dissent to such
action with the person acting as the secretary of the meeting before the
adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered or certified
mail to the secretary of the corporation immediately after the adjournment of
the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in
favor of such action.

          SECTION 3.11. INFORMAL ACTION. Unless otherwise restricted by statute,
the certificate of incorporation of the corporation or these by-laws, any action
required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the board of directors or of
any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if a written consent
thereto is signed by all the directors or by all the members of such committee,
as the case may be, and such written consent is filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the board of directors or of such committee.

          SECTION 3.12. COMPENSATION. The directors may be paid their expenses,
if any, of attendance at each meeting of the board of directors and at each
meeting of a committee of the board of directors of which they are members. The
board of directors, irrespective of any personal interest of any of its members,
shall have authority to fix compensation of all directors for services to the
corporation as directors, officers or otherwise.

                                    ARTICLE 4
                                   COMMITTEES

          SECTION 4.1. COMMITTEES. The board of directors may, by resolution
passed by a majority of the whole board, designate one or more committees, each
committee to consist of one or more of the


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 12

<PAGE>



directors of the corporation, which, to the extent provided in the resolution,
shall have and may exercise the powers of the board of directors with respect to
the management of the business 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 of the board in reference to
amending the certificate of incorporation (except that a committee may, to the
extent authorized in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of
shares of stock adopted by the board of directors, fix any of the preferences or
rights of such shares relating to dividends, redemption, dissolution, any
distribution of assets of the corporation or the conversion into, or the
exchange of such shares for, shares of any other class or classes or any other
series of the same or any other class or classes of stock of the corporation),
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 revocation of a dissolution, or amending the
by-laws of the corporation; and, unless the resolution or these by-laws
expressly so provide, no such committee shall have the power or authority to
declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock. Such committee or
committees shall have such name or names as may be determined from time to time
by resolution adopted by the board of directors, and the board may designate one
or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any
absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.

          SECTION 4.2. COMMITTEE RECORDS. Each committee shall keep regular
minutes of its meetings and report the same to the board of directors when
required.

                                    ARTICLE 5
                                    OFFICERS

          SECTION 5.1. DESIGNATION; NUMBER; ELECTION. The board of directors, at
its initial meeting and thereafter at its first regular meeting after each
annual meeting of stockholders, shall choose the


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 13

<PAGE>



officers of the corporation. Such officers shall be a president, a secretary,
and a treasurer, and such vice presidents, assistant secretaries and assistant
treasurers as the board of directors may choose. The board of directors may
appoint such other officers and agents as it shall deem necessary who shall hold
their offices for such terms and shall exercise such powers and perform such
duties as shall be determined from time to time by the board. Any two or more
offices may be held by the same person. Except as provided in Article 6,
election or appointment as an officer shall not of itself create contract
rights.

          SECTION 5.2. SALARIES. The salaries of all officers and agents of the
corporation chosen by the board of directors shall be fixed by the board of
directors, and no officer shall be prevented from receiving such salary by
reason of the fact that he is also a director of the corporation.

          SECTION 5.3. TERM OF OFFICE; REMOVAL; VACANCIES. Each officer of the
corporation chosen by the board of directors shall hold office until the next
annual appointment of officers by the board of directors and until his or her
successor is appointed and qualifies, or until his or her earlier death,
resignation or removal in the manner hereinafter provided. Any officer or agent
chosen by the board of directors may be removed at any time by the board of
directors whenever in its judgment the best interests of the corporation would
be served thereby, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract
rights, if any, of the person so removed. Any vacancy occurring in any office of
the corporation at any time or any new offices may be filled by the board of
directors for the unexpired portion of the term.

          SECTION 5.4. PRESIDENT. The president shall be the principal executive
officer of the corporation and, subject to the direction and control of the
board of directors, shall be in charge of the business of the corporation. In
general, the president shall discharge all duties incident to the principal
executive office of the corporation and such other duties as may be prescribed
by the board of directors from time to time. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the president shall see


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 14

<PAGE>

          SECTION 8.1. FORM AND EXECUTION OF CERTIFICATES. Every holder of stock
in the corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the
name of, the corporation by the president or a vice president and by the
secretary or an assistant secretary of the corporation, certifying the number of
shares owned. Such certificates shall be in such form as may be determined by
the board of directors. During the period while more than one class of stock of
the corporation is authorized there will be set forth on the face or back of the
certificates which the corporation shall issue to represent each class or series
of stock a statement that the corporation will furnish, without charge to each
stockholder who so requests, the designations, preferences and relative,
participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series
thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences
and/or rights. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar of the
corporation who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon,
any such certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or
registrar of the corporation before such certificate is issued by the
corporation, such certificate may nevertheless be issued and delivered by the
corporation with the same effect as if the officer, transfer agent or registrar
who signed, or whose facsimile signature was placed upon, such certificate had
not ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar of the corporation.

          SECTION 8.2. REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATES. The board of directors may

shares of stock of the corporation theretofore issued by the corporation alleged
to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of the
fact by the person claiming the certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed.
When authorizing such issue of a new certificate, the board of directors may, in
its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the
owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his legal


                                Ex. 3.3 - Page 19

<PAGE>



representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall require and may
require such owner 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. The
board of directors may delegate its authority to direct the issuance of
replacement stock certificates to the transfer agent or agents of the
corporation upon such conditions precedent as may be prescribed by the board.

          SECTION 8.3. TRANSFERS OF STOCK. Upon surrender to the corporation or
the transfer agent of the corporation of a certificate for shares of stock of
the corporation duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession,
assignment, or other authority to transfer, it shall be the duty of the
corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel
the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books, provided the
corporation or a transfer agent of the corporation shall not have received a
notification of adverse interest and that the conditions of Section 8-401 of
Title 6 of the Delaware Code have been met.

          SECTION 8.4. REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS. The corporation shall be
entitled to treat the holder of record (according to the books of the
corporation) of any share or shares of its stock as the holder in fact thereof
and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest

corporation shall have express or other notice thereof, except as expressly
provided by the laws of the State of Delaware.
