     corporation shall be signed by, or in the name of, the corporation by the
     Chairperson or Vice-Chairperson of the Board of Directors, if any, or by
     the President or a Vice-President and by the Treasurer or an Assistant
     Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the corporation.
     Any or all the signatures on any such certificate my be a facsimile. In
     case any officer, transfer agent, or registrar who has signed or whose
     facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to
     be such officer, transfer agent, or registrar before such certificate is
     issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if such
     person were such officer, transfer agent, or registrar at the date of
     issue.

     Whenever the corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class
     of stock or more than one series of any class of stock, and whenever the
     corporation shall issue any shares of its stock as partly paid stock, the
     certificates representing shares of any such class or series or of any such
     partly paid stock shall set forth thereon the statements prescribed by the
     General Corporation Law. Any restrictions on the transfer or registration
     of transfer of any shares of stock of any class or series shall be noted
     conspicuously on the certificate representing such shares.

     The corporation may issue a new certificate of stock or uncertificated
     shares in place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to
     have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, and the Board of Directors may
     require the owner of the lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate, or such
     owner's legal representative, to give the corporation a bond sufficient to
     indemnify the corporation against any claim that may be made against it on
     account of the alleged loss, theft, or destruction of any such certificate
     or the issuance of any such new certificate or uncertificated shares.

2.   UNCERTIFICATED SHARES. Subject to any conditions imposed by the General
     Corporation Law, the Board of Directors of the corporation may provide by
     resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series
     of the stock of the corporation shall be uncertificated shares. Within a
     reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of any uncertificated
     shares, the corporation shall send to the registered owner thereof any
     written notice prescribed by the General Corporation Law.

3.   FRACTIONAL SHARE INTERESTS. The corporation may, but shall not be required
     to, issue fractions of a share. If the corporation does not issue fractions
     of a share, it shall (1) arrange for the disposition of fractional
     interests by those entitled thereto, (2) pay in cash the fair value of
     fractions of a share as of the time when those entitled to receive such
     fractions are determined, or (3) issue scrip or warrants in registered form
     (either represented by a certificate or uncertificated) or bearer form
     (represented by a certificate) which shall entitle the holder to receive a
     full share upon the surrender of such scrip or warrants aggregating a full
     share. A certificate for a fractional share or an uncertificated fractional
     share shall, but scrip or warrants shall not unless otherwise provided
     therein, entitle the holder to exercise voting rights, to receive dividends
     thereon, and to participate in any of the assets of the corporation in the
     event of liquidation. The Board of Directors may cause scrip or warrants to
     be issued subject to the conditions that they shall become void if not
     exchanged for certificates representing the full shares or uncertificated
     full shares before a specified date, or subject to the conditions that the
     shares for which scrip or warrants are exchangeable may be sold by the
     corporation and the proceeds thereof distributed to the holders of scrip or
     warrants, or subject to any other conditions which the Board of Directors
     may impose.

4.   STOCK TRANSFERS. Upon compliance with provisions restricting the transfer
     or registration of transfer of shares of stock, if any, transfers or
     registration of transfers of shares of stock of the corporation shall be
     made only on the stock ledger of the corporation by the registered holder
     thereof, or by the registered holder's attorney thereunto authorized by
     power of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary of the
     corporation or with a transfer agent or a registrar, if any, in the case of

     certificates for such shares of stock properly endorsed and the payment of
     all taxes due thereon.

     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 stockholders shall apply
     to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of
     Directors may fix a new date for the adjourned meeting. 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 a
     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
     determining the stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in

                                       2

     proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the
     corporation's registered office shall be by hand or by certified or
     registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed
     by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is
     required by the General Corporation Law, 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. 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 be not more that 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.

     certificate of incorporation confers such rights where there are two or
     more classes or series of shares of stock or upon which or upon whom the
     General Corporation Law confers such rights notwithstanding that the
     certificate of incorporation may provide for more than one class or series
     of shares of stock, one or more of which are limited or denied such rights
     thereunder; provided, however, that no such right shall vest in the event
     of an increase or a decrease in the authorized number of shares of stock of
     any class or series which is otherwise denied voting rights under the
     provisions of the certificate of incorporation, except as any provision of
     law my otherwise require.

     meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not

     dissent without a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the stockholder or
     by such stockholder's attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted or acted
     upon after three years from its date unless such proxy provides for a
     longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that
     it is irrevocable and, if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an
     interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be
     made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is
     coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the
     corporation generally.

     INSPECTORS. The directors, in advance of the meeting, may, but need not,
     appoint one or more inspectors of election to act at the meeting or any
     adjournment thereof. If an inspector or inspectors are not appointed, the
     person presiding at the meeting may, but need not, appoint one or more
     inspectors. In any case person who may be appointed as an inspector fails

     and according to the best of such inspector's ability. The inspectors, if
     any, shall determine the number of shares of stock outstanding and the
     voting power of each, the shares of stock represented at the meeting, the
     existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall
     receive votes, ballots, or consents, hear and determine all challenges and
     questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count and tabulate

     are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all
     stockholders. On request of the person presiding at the meeting, the
     inspector or inspectors, if any, shall make a report in writing of any
     challenge, question, or matter determined by such inspector or inspectors
     and execute a certificate of any fact found by such inspector or
     inspectors. Except as may otherwise be required by subsection (e) of
     Section 231 of the General Corporation Law, the provisions of that Section
     shall not apply to the corporation.

     QUORUM. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock shall
     constitute a quorum at a meeting of the stockholders for the transaction of
     any business. The stockholders present may adjourn the meeting despite the
     absence of a quorum.

     Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares
     present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to
     vote on the election of directors. Any other action shall be authorized by
     a majority of the votes cast except where the General Corporation Law
     prescribes a different percentage of votes and/or a different exercise of
     voting power, and except as may be otherwise prescribed by the provisions
     of the certificate of incorporation and these Bylaws. In the election of
     directors, and for any other action, voting need not be by ballot.

8.   STOCKHOLDER ACTION WITHOUT MEETINGS. Except as any provision of the General
     Corporation Law may otherwise require, any action required by the General
     Corporation Law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of
     stockholders, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special
     meeting of stockholders, 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. 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 consented in writing.
