          -----------------
place within or without the State of Delaware as may be designated from time to

Corporation (the "Board of Directors") or the President or, if not so
designated, at the registered office of the Corporation.

     1.2  Annual Meeting.  The annual meeting of stockholders for the election
          --------------
of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be
brought before the meeting shall be held on a date to be fixed by the Chairman

be a legal holiday in the place where the meeting is to be held) at the time and
place to be fixed by the Chairman of the Board, the Board of Directors or the
President and stated in the notice of the meeting.

     1.3  Special Meetings.  Special meetings of stockholders may be called at
          ----------------
any time by the Chairman of the Board (if any), a majority of the Board of
Directors or the President and shall be held at such place, on such date and at
such time as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors or the person calling the
meeting. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be
limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of
meeting.

     1.4  Notice of Meetings.  Except as otherwise provided by law, written
          ------------------
notice of each meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, shall be
given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to
each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. The notices of all meetings
shall state the place, date and hour of the meeting. The notice of a special
meeting shall state, in addition, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting
is called. If mailed, notice is given when deposited in the United States mail,
postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at his or her address as it appears
on the records of the Corporation.

     1.5  Voting List.  The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the
          -----------
Corporation shall prepare, at least 10 days before every meeting of
stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the
meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each
stockholder 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 city where the
meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the
meeting, or if not so specified, at
<PAGE>

                                      -2-

the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and
kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time of the meeting,
and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. This list shall
presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the
meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

     1.6  Quorum.  Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of
          ------
Incorporation or these By-Laws, the holders of a majority of the shares of the
capital stock of the Corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at
the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a
quorum for the transaction of business. Shares held by brokers which such
brokers are prohibited from voting (pursuant to their discretionary authority on
behalf of beneficial owners of such shares who have not submitted a proxy with
respect to such shares) on some or all of the matters before the stockholders,
but which shares would otherwise be entitled to vote at the meeting ("Broker
Non-Votes") shall be counted, for the purpose of determining the presence or
absence of a quorum, both (a) toward the total voting power of the shares of
capital stock of the Corporation and (b) as being represented by proxy. If a
quorum has been established for the purpose of conducting the meeting, a quorum
shall be deemed to be present for the purpose of all votes to be conducted at
such meeting, provided that where a separate vote by a class or classes, or
series thereof, is required, a majority of the voting power of the shares of
such class or classes, or series, present in person or represented by proxy
shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on
that matter. If a quorum shall fail to attend any meeting, the chairman of the
meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock
entitled to vote who are present, in person or by proxy, may adjourn the meeting
to another place, date, or time.

     1.7  Adjournments.  Any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned to any
          ------------
other time and to any other place at which a meeting of stockholders may be held
under these By-Laws by the stockholders present or represented at the meeting
and entitled to vote, although less than a quorum, or, if no stockholder is
present, by any officer entitled to preside at or to act as Secretary of such
meeting. It shall not be necessary to notify any stockholder of any adjournment
of less than 30 days if the time and place of the adjourned meeting are
announced at the meeting at which adjournment is taken, unless after the
adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting. At the
adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have
been transacted at the original meeting.

     1.8  Voting and Proxies.  At any meeting of the stockholders, each
          ------------------
stockholder shall have one vote for each share of stock entitled to vote at such
meeting held of record by such stockholder and a proportionate vote for each
fractional share so held, unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of
Incorporation. Each stockholder of record entitled to vote at a meeting of
stockholders, or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting (to the extent not otherwise prohibited by the Certificate of
Incorporation or these By-laws), may vote or express such consent or dissent in
person or may authorize another person or persons to vote or act for such
stockholder by written proxy executed by such stockholder or his or her
authorized agent or by a transmission permitted by law and delivered to the
Secretary of the Corporation. No such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after
three years from the date of its execution, unless the proxy expressly provides
for a longer period. Any copy, facsimile telecommunication or other reliable
reproduction of the writing or transmission created pursuant to this Section 1.8
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,
<PAGE>

                                      -3-

provided that such copy, facsimile telecommunication or reproduction shall be a
complete reproduction of the entire original writing or transmission.

     In the election of directors, voting shall be by written ballot, and for
any other action, voting need not be by ballot.

     The Corporation may, and to the extent required by law or the Certificate
of Incorporation, shall, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one
or more inspectors to act at such meeting and make a written report thereof. The
Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace
any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a
meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at such meeting may, and to the
extent required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, shall, appoint one
or more inspectors to act at such meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon
the discharge of his duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute
the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of
his or her ability.

     1.9  Action at Meeting.  When a quorum is present at any meeting of
          -----------------
stockholders, the holders of a majority of the stock present or represented and
voting on a matter (or if there are two or more classes of stock entitled to
vote as separate classes, then in the case of each such class, the holders of a
majority of the stock of that class present or represented and voting on such
matter) shall decide any matter to be voted upon by the stockholders at such
meeting (other than the election of directors), except when a different vote is
required by express provision of law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these
By-Laws. Any election of directors by the stockholders shall be determined by a
plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote at such
election, except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation. For
the purposes of this paragraph, Broker Non-Votes represented at the meeting but
not permitted to vote on a particular matter shall not be counted, with respect
to the vote on such matter, in the number of (a) votes cast, (b) votes cast
affirmatively, or (c) votes cast negatively.

     1.10 Introduction of Business at Meetings.

          A.   Annual Meetings of Stockholders.
               -------------------------------

               (1)  Nominations of persons for election to the Board of
       Directors and the proposal of business to be considered by the
       stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders (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

       paragraph (A)(1) of this Section 1.10, the stockholder must have given
       timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and
       such other business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder
       action. To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the
       Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later
       than the close of business on the one hundred

       hundred fiftieth (150th) day prior to the first anniversary of the date
       of the proxy statement delivered to stockholders in connection with the
       preceding year's annual meeting; provided, however, that if either (i)
       the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or
       more than sixty (60) days after such an anniversary date or (ii) no proxy
       statement was delivered to stockholders in connection with the preceding
       year's annual meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so
       delivered not earlier than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th)
       day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business
       on the later of the sixtieth (60th) day prior to such annual meeting or
       the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which
       public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the
       Corporation. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (a) as to each
       person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or
       reelection as a director, all information relating to such person that is
       required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of
       directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation
       14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
       Act") (including such person's written consent to being named in the
       proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected);
       (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring
       before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be
       brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at
       the meeting and any material interest in such business of such
       stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the
       proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the
       beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is
       made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the
       Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner and (ii) the class and
       number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned
       beneficially and held of record by such stockholder and such beneficial
       owner.

               (3)  Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph
       (A)(2) of this Section 1.10 to the contrary, in the event that the number
       of directors to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Corporation
       is increased and there is no public announcement by the Corporation
       naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the
       increased Board of Directors at least seventy (70) days prior to the
       first anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting (or, if the
       annual meeting is held more than thirty (30) days before or sixty (60)
       days after such anniversary date, at least seventy (70) days prior to
       such annual meeting), a stockholder's notice required by this Section
       1.10 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees
       for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be delivered
       to the Secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation not
       later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the
       day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.

          B.   Special Meetings of Stockholders.  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 (a) by or at the
       direction of the Board of Directors or (b) provided that the Board of
       Directors has determined that directors shall be
<PAGE>

                                      -5-

       elected at such meeting, by any stockholder of the Corporation who is a
       stockholder of record at the time of giving of notice of the special
       meeting, who shall be entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies
       with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.10. If 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's notice required by paragraph (A)(2) of this
       Section 1.10 shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal
       executive offices of the Corporation not earlier than the ninetieth
       (90th) day prior to such special meeting nor later than the later of (x)
       the close of business on the sixtieth (60th) day prior to such special
       meeting or (y) the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following
       the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of such
       special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to
       be elected at such meeting.

     C.   General.
          -------

               (1)  Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the
       procedures set forth in this Section 1.10 shall be eligible to serve as
       directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of
       stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance
       with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.10. Except as otherwise
       provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, the
       chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine
       whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the
       meeting was made or proposed, as the case may be, in accordance with the
       procedures set forth in this Section 1.10 and, if any proposed nomination
       or business is not in compliance herewith, to declare that such defective
       proposal or nomination shall be disregarded.

               (2)  For purposes of this Section 1.10, "public announcement"

       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.

               (3)  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
       1.10, 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 herein. Nothing in this Section 1.10 shall be
       deemed to affect any rights (i) of stockholders to request inclusion of
       proposals in the Corporation's proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8
       under the Exchange Act or (ii) of the holders of any series of Preferred
       Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances.

provision of law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, and

affirmative vote of the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the
votes which all
<PAGE>

the stockholders would be entitled to cast at any annual election of directors
or class of directors shall be required to amend or repeal, or to adopt any
provision inconsistent with, this Section 1.11.

                          ---------------------------

     7.1  Actions Other Than by or in the Right of the Corporation.  The
          --------------------------------------------------------

who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise
involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action
by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person,
or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or
<PAGE>

                                      -16-

was a director, trustee, partner, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation,
or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise or non-profit entity, against all liability, losses, expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action,
suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the
Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of
any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or
upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that such person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the
Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

     7.2  Actions by or in the Right of the Corporation.  The Corporation shall
          ---------------------------------------------
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or
she is or was a director, trustee, partner, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise or non-profit entity against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person
acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation; except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for negligence or
misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Corporation unless and only to
the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in
which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that
despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of
the case, such person fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such other
court shall deem proper.

     7.3  Success on the Merits.  To the extent that any person referred to in
          ---------------------
Sections 7.1 or 7.2 has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of
any action, suit or proceeding referred to therein, or in defense of any claim,
issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection therewith.

     7.4. Authorization.  Any indemnification under Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3
          -------------
(unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized
in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director,
trustee, partner, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances
because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 7.1
and 7.2. Such determination shall be made: (a) by the Board of Directors, by a
majority vote of directors who are not parties to such action, suit or
proceeding (whether or not a quorum), or (b) if there are no disinterested
directors or if a majority of disinterested directors so directs, by independent
legal counsel (who may be regular legal counsel to the corporation) in a written
opinion, or (c) by the stockholders.

     7.5  Expense Advance.  Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an
          ---------------
officer or director of the Corporation in defending any pending or threatened
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may
be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding as authorized by the Board of Directors in the manner
provided in Section 7.4 of this Article upon receipt of an undertaking by or on
behalf of such officer or director to repay such amount, if it shall ultimately
be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as
authorized in this Article. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred
by other employees or agents of the Corporation may be so paid upon such terms
and conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

     7.6  Nonexclusivity.  The indemnification and advancement of expenses
          --------------
provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other Sections of this Article shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any statute,
by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise,
both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has

as a director, trustee, partner, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or non-profit
entity against any liability asserted against and incurred by such person in any
such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the
Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability
under the provisions of this Article or Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law.

     7.8  "The Corporation".  For the purposes of this Article, references to
          -----------------
"the Corporation" shall include the resulting corporation and, to the extent
that the Board of Directors of the resulting corporation so decides, all
constituent corporations (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed
