Person, (B) any sale,  lease, exchange, transfer or other

(as defined with reference to Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange
Act) of  which such individual, corporation or other entity is a
member, "beneficially  owns" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the
Exchange Act) shares of the outstanding  common stock of the
corporation which, in the aggregate, have (or, in the case  of
convertible securities, would have, if such convertible
securities were, at  the time the determination is being made,
convertible and had been converted) 20 percent or more of the
total combined power to elect directors of the  corporation.

     (iii)  For the purposes of subparagraph (b)(iii) of this
Section 10, the term "other consideration to be received" shall
include, without limitation,  common stock of the corporation
retained by its existing stockholders in the  event of a Business
Combination in which the corporation is the surviving
corporation.

     (iv)  The term "Continuing Director" shall mean a director
who is unaffiliated with the Related Person and who was a member

Directors then in office to have been paid at any time by the
Related Person for  any share or shares of that class of capital
stock.  If there is more than one  class of capital stock of the
corporation issued and outstanding, the Highest  Equivalent Price

equivalent to the highest per share price that can be determined
to have been paid at any time by the Related Person for any share
or shares of  any class of capital stock of the corporation.  In
determining the Highest Per  Share Price and Highest Equivalent
Price, all purchases by the Related Person  shall be taken into

good faith, to be Continuing  Directors) shall have the power and
duty to determine, for the purposes of this  Section 10, on the
basis of information then known to them, whether any  individual,
corporation or other entity is a Related Person.  Any such
determination made in good faith shall be conclusive and binding
for all  purposes of this Section 10.

shall not apply to  any amendment or repeal of any provision of
this Section 10 that is recommended  to the stockholders by a
resolution adopted by (A) a majority of the Board of  Directors,
and (B) not less than 80 percent of the Continuing Directors then
in  office, in which case any such amendment or repeal shall
require only the  affirmative vote of a majority of the Voting
Stock.

     11.  ORGANIZATIONS.  The Chairman of the Board or, in his or
her absence, the President of the corporation or, in the absence
of both, such person as may be designated by the Board of

                       BOARD OF DIRECTORS

     15.  POWERS.  The business and affairs of the corporation
shall be managed by or under the direction of its Board of
Directors.

     16.  NUMBER, CLASSIFICATION AND TERM OF OFFICE.  The number
of directors of the corporation who shall constitute the whole
board shall be eight but may be increased or decreased from time
to time either by a resolution or bylaw duly adopted by the Board
of Directors.  The Board of Directors shall be and is divided
into three classes:  Class I, Class II and Class III, which shall
be as nearly equal in number as possible.  Each director shall
serve for a term ending  on the date of the third annual meeting
of stockholders following the annual meeting at which the
director was elected; provided, however, that each initial
director in Class I shall hold office until the annual meeting of
stockholders  in 1988; each initial director in Class II shall
hold office until the annual  meeting of stockholders in 1989;
and each initial director in Class III shall  hold office until
the annual meeting of stockholders in 1990.  Notwithstanding  the
foregoing, each director shall serve until his successor is duly
elected and  qualified or until his death, resignation or
removal.

     17.  REMOVAL.  Any director may be removed from office, only
with cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled
to vote in an election of  directors.

     18.  RESIGNATIONS.  A director may resign at any time by
giving written notice to the corporation.  Such resignation shall
be effective when given  unless the director specifies a later
time.  The resignation shall be effective  regardless of whether
it is accepted by the corporation.

     19.  NEWLY-CREATED DIRECTORSHIPS AND VACANCIES.  In the
event of any increase or decrease in the authorized number of
directors, any newly-created or  eliminated directorships
resulting from such increase or decrease shall be  apportioned by
the Board of Directors among the three classes of directors so as
to maintain such classes as nearly equal in number as possible.
No decrease in  the number of directors constituting the Board of
Directors shall shorten the  term of any incumbent director.
Newly-created directorships resulting from any  increase in the
number of directors and any vacancies on the Board of Directors
resulting from death, resignation, disqualification, removal or
other cause  shall be filled by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the remaining directors  then in office (and not by
stockholders), even though less than a quorum of the  Board of
Directors.  Any director elected in accordance with the preceding
sentence shall hold office for the remainder of the full term of
the class of  directors in which the new directorship was created
or the vacancy occurred and  until such director's successor
shall have been elected and qualified.

     20.  REGULAR MEETINGS.  Regular meetings of the Board of
Directors shall be held at such place or places, on such date or
dates, and at such time or times  as shall have been established
by the Board of Directors and publicized among  all directors.  A
notice of each regular meeting shall not be required.

     21.  SPECIAL MEETINGS.  Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board, the
President or any two directors.

     22.  NOTICE OF MEETINGS.

     (a)  Special meetings, and regular meetings not fixed as
provided in these Bylaws, shall be held upon four days' notice by
mail or two days' notice  delivered personally or by telephone or
telegraph to each director who does not  waive such notice.  The
notice shall state the place, date and time of the  meeting.
Unless otherwise indicated in the notice, any and all business
may be  transacted at a special meeting.

     (b)  Notice of a reconvened meeting need not be given if the
place, date and time of the reconvened meeting are announced at
the meeting at which the  adjournment is taken and the
adjournment is not for more than 24 hours.  If a  meeting is
adjourned for more than 24 hours, notice of the reconvened
meeting  shall be given prior to the time of that reconvened
meeting to the directors who  were not present at the time of the
adjournment.

     23.  ACTION WITHOUT MEETING.  Except as required by law, any
action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the
Board of Directors or  any committee thereof may be taken without
a meeting if all members of the Board  of Directors or any
committee thereof, as the case may be, consent thereto in
writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes
of the Board of  Directors or committee.

     24.  MEETING BY TELEPHONE.  Except as required by law,
members of the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may
participate in the meeting of the  Board of Directors or
committee by means of conference telephone or similar
communications equipment if all persons who participate in the
meeting can hear  each other.  Such participation in a meeting
shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

     25.  QUORUM AND MANNER OF ACTING.  At any meeting of the
Board of Directors, a majority of the directors then in office
shall constitute a quorum  for all purposes.  A meeting at which
a quorum is initially present may continue  to transact business
notwithstanding the withdrawal of directors.  If a quorum  shall
fail to attend any meeting, a majority of those present may
adjourn the  meeting to another place, date or time, without
further notice or waiver  thereof.  Except as provided herein,
the act of the majority of the directors  present at any meeting
at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the  Board of
Directors.

     26.  COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.  The Board of
Directors by a vote of a majority of the whole Board, may from
time to time designate  committees of the Board, with such
lawfully delegable powers and duties as it  thereby confers, to
serve at the pleasure of the Board and shall for those
committees and any others provided for herein, elect a director
or directors to  serve as the member or members, designating, if
it desires, other directors as  alternate members who may replace
any absent or disqualified member at any  meeting of the
committee.  Any committee so designated may exercise the power
and authority of the Board of Directors to declare a dividend or
to authorize  the issuance of stock if the resolution which
designates the committee or a  supplemental resolution of the
Board of Directors shall so provide.  The  principles set forth
in Sections 15  through 25 of these Bylaws shall apply to
committees of the Board of Directors and to actions taken by such
committees.  All members of any Audit Committee of  this Company
designated by the Board of Directors shall be directors who are
not  also employees of the corporation.

     27.  COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS.  Unless otherwise restricted
by the Certificate of 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  or a
committee thereof, and may receive fixed fees and other
compensation for  their services as directors.  No such payment
shall preclude any director from  serving the corporation in any
other capacity and receiving compensation for  such service.

                            OFFICERS

     28.  TITLES.  The officers of the corporation shall be
chosen by the Board of Directors and shall include a Chairman of
the Board or a President or both, a  Secretary and a Treasurer.

shall be elected annually by the Board of Directors at its
regular meeting following the annual  meeting of the
stockholders,  and each officer shall hold office until the next
annual election of officers and until the officer's successor is
elected and qualified, or until the  officer's death, resignation
or removal.  Any officer may be removed at any  time, with or
without cause, by the Board of Directors.  Any vacancy occurring
in any office may be filled by the Board of Directors.

     30.  RESIGNATION.  Any officer may resign at any time upon
notice to the corporation without prejudice to the rights, if
any, of the corporation under  any contract to which the officer
is a party.  The resignation of an officer  shall be effective
when given unless the officer specifies a later time.  The
resignation shall be effective regardless of whether it is
accepted by the  corporation.

     31.  CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER.  The Board of Directors shall
designate either the Chairman of the Board or the President as
the chief executive officer  and may prescribe the duties and
powers of the chief executive officer.  In the  absence of such a
designation, the Chairman of the Board shall be the chief
executive officer.  If there is no Chairman of the Board, the
President shall be  the chief executive officer.  Subject to the
provisions of these Bylaws and to  the direction of the Board of
Directors, the chief executive officer shall have  the
responsibility for the general management and control of the
business and  affairs of the corporation and shall perform all

time to time prescribe.  At the request of the Secretary, or in
the  Secretary's absence or disability, any Assistant Secretary
shall perform any of  the duties of the Secretary and when so
acting shall have all the powers of, and  be subject to all the
restrictions upon, the Secretary.

     33.  TREASURER AND ASSISTANT TREASURERS.  Unless the Board
of Directors designates another chief financial officer, the
Treasurer shall be the chief  financial officer of the
corporation.  Unless otherwise determined by the Board  of
Directors or the chief executive officer, the Treasurer shall
have custody of  the corporate funds and securities, shall keep
adequate and correct accounts of  the corporation's properties
and business transactions, shall disburse such  funds of the

prescribe.

     35.  COMPENSATION.  The Board of Directors shall fix the
compensation of the chief executive officer and may fix the
compensation of other employees of  the corporation, including
the other officers.  If the Board does not fix the  compensation
of the other officers, the chief executive officer shall fix such
compensation.

     36.  ACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF OTHER
CORPORATIONS.  Unless otherwise directed by the Board of
Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the  President or any
officer of the corporation authorized by the Chairman of the
Board or the President, shall have power to vote and otherwise
act on behalf of  the corporation, in person or by proxy, at any
meeting of stockholders of, or  with respect to any action of
stockholders of, any other corporation in which  the corporation
may hold securities and otherwise shall have power to exercise
any and all rights and powers which the corporation may possess
by reason of its  ownership of securities in such other
corporation.

                       STOCK AND DIVIDENDS

     38.  TRANSFERS OF STOCK.  Transfers of stock shall be made
only upon the transfer books of the corporation kept at an office
of the corporation or by  transfer agents designated to transfer
shares of the stock of the corporation.   Except where a

this Section, an outstanding certificate for the number of shares
involved shall  be surrendered for cancellation before a new
certificate is issued therefor.  In  the event of the loss, theft
or destruction of any certificate of stock, another  may be
issued in its place pursuant to such regulations as the Board of
Directors may establish concerning proof of such loss, theft or
destruction and  concerning the giving of a satisfactory bond or
bonds of indemnity.

other regulations as the Board  of Directors may establish.


                           RECORD DATE

     40.  RECORD DATE.  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, or
entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other 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, which shall not be more than
60 nor less than  ten days before the date of such meeting, nor
more than 60 days prior to any  other action.  If no record date
is fixed, the record date (1) 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; and (2) 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

Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the  reconvened
meeting.


                        WAIVER OF NOTICE

     41.  WAIVER OF NOTICE.  Whenever notice is required to be
given by law or these Bylaws, a 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
