EXHIBIT 2.4(c)

                       RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION



         NOXSO CORPORATION, a corporation organized and existing under the laws
of the State of Virginia, hereby certifies as follows:

         1. The name of the Corporation is NOXSO CORPORATION.

         2. These Restated Articles of Incorporation were duly adopted by the
Corporation's Board of Directors on December 11, 2003.

         3. These Restated Articles of Incorporation were proposed by the Board
of Directors and submitted to the Shareholders at the meeting of Shareholders
held on ______ (following proper notice given to the shareholders in accordance
with the provision of Section 13.1-658 of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act),
at which meeting the holders of ______ shares (more than two-thirds) of the
_______ total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation
entitled to vote thereon, voted in favor of adoption of these Restated Articles
of Incorporation, which amount was sufficient for the adoption thereof.

         4. Pursuant to Sections 13.1-710 and 13.1-711 of the Virginia Stock
Corporation Act, these Restated Articles of Incorporation restate and integrate
and further amend the provisions of the original Articles of Incorporation and
all amendments thereto and the Articles of Incorporation are hereby amended to
read in their entirety as follows:

         FIRST: The name of the Corporation (which is herein sometimes called
the Corporation) is: NOXSO CORPORATION.

         SECOND. The nature of the business, and the objects and purposes to be
transacted, promoted, or carried on, are as follows:

         To purchase or otherwise acquire and to sell or otherwise dispose of
         real and personal property of any kind; To render services of all
         kinds; and to engage in any lawful act or activity for which
         corporations may be organized under the general corporate law of the
         Commonwealth of Virginia and to do everything necessary, suitable, or
         proper for the accomplishment of any of these purposes or of any object
         incidental to or connected with any of these purposes.

         This Corporation shall be authorized to exercise and enjoy all other
powers, rights and privileges granted by the Virginia Stock Corporation Act, to
corporations organized thereunder, and all the powers conferred by all acts
heretofore or hereafter amendatory of or supplemental to that Act, and the
enumeration of certain powers, rights or privileges granted or conferred by that
Act now or hereafter in force; provided, however, that nothing herein contained
shall be deemed to authorize or permit this Corporation to carry on any
business, to exercise any power, or to do any act which a corporation formed
under that Act may not at the time lawfully carry on or do.

         THIRD: The total number of shares of all classes which the Corporation
is authorized to have outstanding is One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares of
which stock Eighty Million (80,000,000) shares in the par value of $.01 each,
amounting in the aggregate to Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000.00) shall
be voting common stock ("Common Stock") and of which Twenty Million (20,000,000)
shares in the par value of $.01 each, amounting in the aggregate to Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00), shall be preferred stock.

<PAGE>

                  (a) Designation. Of the authorized preferred stock, (a) Two
         Million Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand (2,750,000) shares, $.01 par value
         per share, shall be of the class designated as "Series A Preferred
         Stock" (the "Series A Preferred") and (b) One Million Five Hundred
         Thousand (1,500,000) shares, $.01 par value per share, shall be of the
         class designated as "Series B Preferred Stock" (the "Series B
         Preferred"). The Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred are
         sometimes jointly referred to hereafter at the "Preferred Shares").

                  (b) Rights, Preferences and Restrictions of Stock. The rights,
         preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to and imposed upon
         the Series A Preferred, the Series B Preferred and the Common Stock are
         set forth below.

                  (c) Dividends.

                           (i) Dividends on the Series A Preferred. The holders
                  of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to receive dividends
                  at the rate of three percent (3%) per share per annum payable
                  semi-annually, when, if and as declared by the Board of
                  Directors out of any assets legally available therefor. The
                  right to such dividends on the Series A Preferred shall be
                  cumulative. No dividend shall be declared and paid on the
                  Common Stock or Series B Preferred of the Corporation unless
                  all current and accrued dividends have been paid on the Series
                  A Preferred. At the option of the Corporation, dividends are
                  payable in cash or Series A Preferred stock. The Board of
                  Directors shall value any Series A Preferred stock distributed
                  as a dividend.

                           (ii) Dividends on the Series B Preferred. Each holder
                  of Series B Preferred shall be entitled to receive dividends
                  when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of
                  funds legally available therefor, at a rate equal to 1.35
                  times the rate of dividend declared per share on Common Stock;
                  provided, however, that no dividend shall be declared or paid
                  on the Common Stock unless the per share dividend as described
                  herein is first declared or paid, as the case may be, on the
                  Series B Preferred.

                           (iii) Dividends on the Common Stock. Each holder of
                  Common Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends when, as
                  and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
                  available therefor; provided, however, (a) no dividend shall
                  be declared or paid on the Common Stock unless the per share
                  dividend as declared or paid, as the case may be, has first
                  been declared or paid, as the case may be, on the Series B
                  Preferred.

                  (d) Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of
         any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, either
         voluntary or involuntary, distributions to the shareholders of the
         Corporation shall be made in the following manner:

                           (i) Each holder of Preferred Shares shall receive,
                  prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the
                  assets of the Corporation to the holders of Common Stock by
                  reason of their ownership of Common Stock, an amount equal to
                  the sum of (i) $10.00 per Preferred Shares (which amount shall
                  be subject to equitable adjustment whenever a stock split,
                  combination, reclassification or other similar event involving
                  the Preferred Shares shall occur) held by such holder plus
                  (ii) all declared but unpaid dividends on the Preferred

<PAGE>

                  Shares, if any, to and including the date full payment of such
                  preferential amount shall be tendered with respect to such
                  shares to the holder of such shares in connection with such
                  liquidation, dissolution or winding up. If the assets of the
                  Corporation legally available for distribution shall be
                  insufficient to permit the payment in full to all such holders
                  of Preferred Shares of the full aforesaid preferential
                  amounts, then the entire assets of the Corporation legally
                  available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among
                  the holders of Preferred Shares in accordance with the
                  aggregate liquidation preference of the shares of Series A
                  Preferred and Series B Preferred held by each of them.

                           (ii) If payment has been made to each holder of
                  Preferred Shares of the full amount to which such holder is
                  entitled pursuant to paragraph (d)(i) of this Article Third,
                  the holders of Common Stock shall then be entitled to share
                  ratably in the Corporation's remaining assets.

                  (e) Treatment of Reorganizations, Consolidations, Mergers, and
         Sales of Assets. Each of (a) a consolidation or merger of the
         Corporation with or into any other corporation or entity in which the
         shareholders of the Corporation do not own more than 50% of the
         outstanding voting power of the surviving corporation or entity
         immediately after such consolidation or merger and (b) a sale of 50% or
         more of the assets of the Corporation, shall be regarded as a
         liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the
         Corporation within the meaning of Section (d) of this Article Third
         unless the holders of a majority of the shares of the Preferred Shares
         then outstanding, voting as a single class, elect not to treat any such
         event as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up by giving written
         notice thereof to the Corporation.

                  (f) Distribution Other Than Cash. Whenever the distribution
         provided for in this Article Third shall be payable in property other
         than cash, the value of such distribution shall be the fair market
         value of such property as determined in good faith by the Board of
         Directors; provided, however, that if the holders of a majority of the
         then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred or a majority of the then
         outstanding shares of Series B Preferred (the "Contesting Holders")
         notify the Board of Directors within five business days after receiving
         written notification of such determination of fair market value that
         they disagree with such determination, then the Board of Directors and
         the Contesting Holders shall have 30 days to agree upon a fair market
         value of the relevant property. If, by the end of such 30-day period,
         they are unable to agree on a fair market value, the fair market value
         shall be determined by an appraisal to be paid for by the Corporation.
         All appraisals shall be undertaken by two appraisers, one selected by
         the Corporation and one selected by the Contesting Holders, which
         selections must be made within 10 days after the expiration of the
         30-day period described above. If one selecting party fails to timely
         select its appraiser, the other selecting party shall select both
         appraisers. The fair market value shall be the fair market value
         arrived at by those appraisers within 60 days following the appointment
         of the last appraiser to be appointed. In the event that the two
         appraisers cannot agree on such fair market value within such a period
         of time, (a) if the appraisers' valuations are within 10% of each
         other, the fair market value shall be the average of the two
         valuations, and (b) if the differences in the valuations are greater,
         the appraisers shall elect a third appraiser who will calculate fair
         market value independently, and, except as provided in the next
         sentence, the fair market value of the property shall in each case be
         the average of the two fair market values arrived at by the appraisers
         who are closest in amount. If one appraiser's valuation is the average
         of the other two valuations, the average valuation shall be the fair
         market value. In the event that the two original appraisers cannot
         agree upon a third appraiser within 30 days following the end of the
         60-day period referred to above, the third appraiser shall be appointed
         by the American Arbitration Association.

                  (g) Voting Power.

                           (i) Series A Preferred. Except as otherwise expressly
                  provided in Section (g) of this Article Third or as required
                  by law, each holder of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to
                  vote on all matters and shall be entitled to one vote for
                  every five shares of Series A Preferred standing in such
                  holder's name on the books of the Corporation. In addition,
                  each holder of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to notice
                  of each shareholder's meeting in accordance with the By-Laws
                  of the Corporation, as amended and in effect from time to
                  time, as if such holder were a holder of Common Stock.

                           (ii) Series B Preferred. Except as otherwise
                  expressly provided in Section (g) of this Article Third or as
                  required by law, no holder of Series B Preferred shall be
                  entitled to vote on any matter by virtue of such holder's
                  ownership of Series B Preferred, but such holder shall be
                  entitled to notice of each shareholder's meeting in accordance
                  with the By-Laws of the Corporation, as amended and in effect
                  from time to time, as if such holder were a holder of Common
                  Stock.

                           (iii) Common Stock. Except as otherwise expressly
                  provided in Section (g) of this Article Third or as required
                  by law, each holder of Common Stock shall be entitled to vote
                  on all matters and shall be entitled to one vote for each
                  share of Common Stock standing in such holder's name on the
                  books of the Corporation.

                           (iv) Record Date; Single Class. The number of shares
                  of Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred or Common Stock, as
                  the case may be, entitled to vote on any matter shall be
                  determined in each case as of the record date for the
                  determination of shareholders entitled to vote on such matter
                  or, if no such record date is established, at the date such
                  vote is taken or any written consent of shareholders is
                  solicited. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein
                  or as required by law, the holders of Series A Preferred, the
                  holders of the Series B Preferred and the holders of the
                  Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all
                  matters.

                  (h) Redemption.

                           (i) Mandatory Redemption. The Corporation shall have
                  the right to redeem each share of Series B Preferred then
                  outstanding at a price per share equal to the sum of (a) Ten
                  Dollars ($10.00) plus (b) an amount equal to all declared but
                  unpaid dividends, if any, in respect of such share (the
                  "Redemption Price").

<PAGE>

                           (ii) Payment of Redemption Price. On the date of
                  redemption of the shares of Series B Preferred (the
                  "Redemption Date"), the Corporation will pay to each holder of
                  Series B Preferred an amount equal to the Redemption Price
                  with respect to each share of Series B Preferred held by such
                  holder and redeemed on such date. If on the Redemption Date
                  the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption
                  of shares of Series B Preferred are insufficient to redeem the
                  number of shares of Series B Preferred to be redeemed on such
                  date, those funds which are legally available will be used to
                  redeem, at the Redemption Price, the maximum possible number
                  of such shares of Series B Preferred. At any time thereafter
                  when additional funds of the Corporation become legally
                  available for the redemption of Series B Preferred, such funds
                  will immediately be used to redeem the balance of such shares
                  of Series B Preferred to be redeemed (or such portion thereof
                  for which funds are then legally available) which the
                  Corporation has not so redeemed. In addition, any redemption
                  of Series B Preferred shall be made out of any surplus or any
                  capital whether or not a reduction of capital is thereby
                  involved, and the Corporation shall take all necessary action
                  to effect a reduction of capital if such reduction is
                  necessary to provide funds legally available for any required
                  redemption of Series B Preferred.

                           (iii) Equitable Adjustment of Redemption Price. The
                  Redemption Price set forth in Section (h)(i) of this Article
                  Third shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there
                  shall occur a stock split, combination, reclassification or
                  other similar event involving the Series B Preferred.

                           (iv) Surrender of Certificates. Not more than 50 days
                  and not less than 20 days prior to the Redemption Date, the
                  Corporation shall mail written notice (the "Redemption
                  Notice"), postage prepaid, to each holder of record of Series
                  B Preferred, at such holder's address as shown on the records
                  of the Corporation; provided, however, that the Corporation's
                  failure to give any such Redemption Notice shall in no way
                  affect its obligation to redeem the Series B Preferred as
                  provided in Section (h) of this Article Third. The Redemption
                  Notice to each holder of Series B Preferred shall contain the
                  following information:

                           -- the number of shares of Series B Preferred held by
                           such holder which shall be redeemed by the
                           Corporation on the Redemption Date pursuant to the
                           provisions of Section (g) of this Article Third;

                           -- the Redemption Date; and

                           -- the address at which the holder may surrender to
                           the Corporation its certificate or certificates
                           representing shares of Series B Preferred to be
                           redeemed.

                           Each holder of shares of Series B Preferred to be
                  redeemed shall surrender the certificate or certificates
                  representing such shares to the Corporation at the place
                  specified in the Redemption Notice on or prior to the
                  Redemption Date designated in the Redemption Notice, and
                  thereupon an amount equal to the Redemption Price shall be
                  paid to the order of the person whose name appears on such
                  certificate or certificates. Each surrendered certificate
                  shall be canceled and retired.

                           (v) Dividends After Redemption. From and after the
                  date on which the Corporation shall have paid in full the
                  Redemption Price with respect to any share of Series B
                  Preferred, such share of Series B Preferred thereby redeemed
                  shall not be entitled to any further dividends pursuant to
                  Section (c) of this Article Third.

                           (vi) No Reissuance of Series B Preferred. No share of
                  Series B Preferred acquired by the Corporation by reason of
                  redemption, purchase, conversion or otherwise shall be
                  reissued, and all such shares shall be canceled, retired and
                  eliminated from the shares which the Corporation shall be
                  authorized to issue. The Corporation may from time to time
                  take such appropriate corporate action as may be necessary to
                  reduce the authorized number of shares of Series B Preferred
                  accordingly.

                  (i) Conversion.

                           (i) Right to Convert. Each Preferred Share shall be
                  convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time
                  after the date of issuance of such share, into five shares of
                  fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock.

                           (ii) Corporation's Right for Conversion. In addition,
                  each Preferred Share may be convertible, solely at the option
                  of the Corporation, into five shares of Common Stock at any
                  time twenty-five percent (25%) of the same Series of Preferred
                  Shares issued by the Corporation shall have been converted by
                  the holders thereof into Common Stock.

                           (iii) Mechanics of Conversion. Before any shares of
                  Preferred Shares shall be converted pursuant to Section (i)(i)
                  or (i)(2) of this Article Third into shares of Common Stock,
                  the holder thereof shall surrender the certificate or
                  certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the
                  Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Preferred Shares,
                  and (a) if being converted at the election of the holder
                  pursuant to Section (i)(i) of this Article Third, such holder
                  must give written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the
                  Corporation at its principal corporate office, of the election
                  to convert the same and shall state therein the name or names
                  in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common
                  Stock are to be issued, or (b) if being converted
                  automatically pursuant to Section (i)(ii) of this Article
                  Third, the Corporation must give written notice by mail,
                  postage prepaid, to the holder at the last known address as
                  reflected on the Corporation's records of such conversion and
                  requesting the name or names in which the certificate or
                  certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The
                  Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue
                  and deliver to such holder of Preferred Shares, or to the
                  nominee or nominees of such holder if so directed, a
                  certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common
                  Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid.
                  Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately
                  before the close of business on the date of such surrender of
                  the shares of Preferred Shares to be converted, and the person
                  or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock
                  issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all
                  purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of
                  Common Stock as of such date.

                           (iv) Equitable Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The
                  conversion rate set forth in this Section (i) of this Article
                  Third shall be subject to equitable adjustment whenever there
                  shall occur a stock split, combination, reclassification or
                  other similar event involving the Preferred Shares.

                  (j) Notices of Record Date. In the event of:

                           (i) Any taking by the Corporation of a record of the

                  as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split up or
                  combination of shares), any merger or consolidation of the
                  Corporation (other than a merger or consolidation with a
                  wholly-owned subsidiary in which the Corporation is the

                  of such dividend, distribution or right and a description of
                  such dividend, distribution or right, (ii) the date on which
                  any such reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization,
                  transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or
                  winding up is expected to become effective and (iii) the time,
                  if any, that is to be fixed, as to when the holders of record
                  of Common Stock (or other securities) shall be entitled to
                  exchange their shares of Common Stock (or other securities)

                  reorganization, reclassification, recapitalization, transfer,
                  consolidation, merger, dissolution, liquidation or winding up.
                  Such notice shall be mailed at least 20 days prior to the date
                  specified in such notice on which such action is to be taken.

                  (j) Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock issued and
         outstanding shall be identical in all respects one with the other.
         Except for, and subject to, those rights expressly granted to the
         holders of the Preferred Shares, or except as may be provided by the
         laws of the State of Virginia, the holders of Common Stock shall have
         exclusively all other rights of shareholders, including, but not by way
         of limitation, (a) the right to receive dividends, when and as declared
         by the Board of Directors out of assets lawfully available therefor,
         and (b) in the event of any distribution of assets upon liquidation,
         dissolution or winding up of the Corporation or otherwise, the right to
         receive ratably and equally all the assets and funds of the Corporation
         remaining after the payment to the holders of the Preferred Shares of
         the specific amounts which they are entitled to receive upon such
         liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation as herein
         provided.

authorized, or any notes, debentures, bonds, or other securities convertible
into or carrying options or warrants to purchase shares of any class of stock of
the Corporation, issued or sold or proposed to be issued or sold or with respect

                  of dividends on shares of that series;

         (3)      Whether that series shall have voting rights, in addition to

                  such voting rights;

         (4)      Whether that series shall have conversion privileges, and, if
                  so, the terms and conditions of such conversion, including
                  provision for adjustment of the conversion rate in such events
                  as the Board of Directors shall determine;

         (5)      Whether or not the shares of that series shall be redeemable,
                  and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption,

                  any, of payment of shares of that series; and

         (8)      Any other relative rights, preferences and limitations of that
                  series.

<PAGE>

         SEVENTH: The number of directors which shall constitute the full Board
of Directors shall be such as from time to time shall be fixed by, or, in the
manner provided in the By-Laws, and in the absence of a By-Law fixing the number
of directors, the number shall be two (2).

         EIGHTH: In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers otherwise
conferred, the Board of Directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized:

              1. To exercise on behalf of the Corporation all powers held by it
except as otherwise provided herein, or by amendments hereto, or by the laws of
Virginia or by the By-Laws of the Corporation.

              2. To make, amend or repeal the By-Laws of the Corporation,
including By-Laws fixing or changing the number of directors, subject however,
to the power vested in and reserved to the shareholders having general voting
power, to modify or rescind any such action by affirmative vote or written
order, direction, or consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
stock of the Corporation having general voting power, which power of
modification and rescission is vested in and reserved to such shareholders.

         NINTH: Each director and officer (and his heirs, executors and
administrators) shall be indemnified by the Corporation against reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by him in connection with any action, suit, or proceeding
to which be may be made a party by reason of his being or having been a director
or officer of the Corporation, except in relation to any action, suits or
proceedings in which he has been adjudged liable because of negligence or
misconduct, which shall be deemed to mean willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his
office. In the absence of an adjudication which expressly absolves the director
or officer of liability to the Corporation or its shareholders for negligence
and misconduct, within the meaning thereof as used herein, or in the event of a
settlement each director and officer (and his heirs, executors and
administrators) shall be indemnified by the Corporation against payments made,
including reasonable costs and expenses, provided that such indemnity shall be
conditioned upon the prior determination by a resolution of two-thirds of those
members of the Board of Directors of the Corporation who are not involved in the
action, suit or proceeding that the director or officer has no liability by
reason of negligence or misconduct, within the meaning thereof as used herein,
and provided further that if a majority of the members of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation are involved in the action, suit or proceeding, such
determination shall have been made by a written opinion of independent counsel.
Amounts paid in settlement shall not exceed costs, fees, and expenses which
would have been reasonably incurred if the action, suit or proceeding had been
litigated to a conclusion. Such a determination by the Board of Directors or by
independent counsel, and the payments of amounts by the Corporation on the basis
thereof shall not prevent a shareholder from challenging such indemnification by
appropriate legal proceedings on the grounds that the person indemnified was
liable to the Corporation or its security holders by reason of negligence or
misconduct, within the meaning thereof as used herein. The foregoing rights and
indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights to which the officers
and directors may be entitled according to law.

this Note.

         4. Costs and Expenses of Enforcement and Collection. The Borrower will

incurred or paid by the Lender in enforcing or collecting any of the obligations
of the Borrower hereunder. The Borrower agrees that all such costs and expenses
and all other expenditures by the Lender on account hereof, other than advances
of principal, which are not reimbursed by the Borrower immediately upon demand,
all amounts due under this Note after maturity, and any amounts due hereunder if

of, or otherwise affect, any of its rights under this Note.

                  (b) No act, omission or delay by the Lender or course of
dealing between the Lender and the Borrower shall constitute a waiver of the

waiver of any other default, right or remedy or of the same default, right or
remedy on a future occasion.

                  (c) No provision hereof shall be modified, altered or limited
except by a written instrument expressly referring to this Note and to such
