number other committees and may by vote delegate to any such committee or
committees some or all of the power of the directors except those which by law,
by the Articles of Organization or by these Bylaws they are prohibited from
delegating. Except as the directors may otherwise determine, any such committee

telephone at least twenty-four hours before the meeting. Notice of a meeting
need not be given to any director if a written waiver of notice, executed by
such director before or after the meeting, is filed with the records of the
meeting, or to any director who attends the meeting without protesting prior
thereto or at its commencement the lack of such notice. Neither notice of a
meeting nor a waiver of a notice need specify the purposes of the meeting.

     3.8 Presence through Communications Equipment. Unless otherwise provided by
law or the Articles of Organization, members of the board of directors or any
committee designated thereby may participate in a meeting of such board or
committee by means of a conference telephone or similar communications equipment
by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other
at the same time and participation by such means shall constitute presence in
person at a meeting.

     3.9 Quorum. At any meeting of the directors, six directors shall constitute
a quorum, except when the number of directors then in office shall be less than
twelve, in which case a majority of the directors then in office shall
constitute a quorum. Any meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a
majority of the votes cast upon the question, whether or not a quorum is
present, and the meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice.

     3.10 Action by Vote. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a majority of
the directors present may take any action, except when a larger vote is required
by law, by the Articles of Organization or by these Bylaws.

     3.11 Action by Writing. Unless the Articles of Organization otherwise
provide, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the
directors may be taken without a meeting if all the directors consent to the
action in writing and the written consents are filed with the records of the
meetings of the directors. Such consents shall be treated for all purposes as a
vote taken at a meeting.

stating the number and the class and the designation of the series, if any, of
the shares held by such stockholder, in such form as shall, in conformity to
law, be prescribed from time to time by the directors. Such certificate shall be
signed by the president or a vice president and by the treasurer or an assistant
treasurer. Such signatures may be facsimiles if the certificate is signed by a
transfer agent, or by a registrar, other than a director, officer or employee of
the corporation. In case any officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature
has been placed on such certificate shall have ceased to be such officer before
such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the corporation with the same

<PAGE>

to the corporation or its transfer agent of the certificate therefor properly
endorsed or accompanied by a written assignment and power of attorney properly
executed, with necessary transfer stamps affixed, and with such proof of the
authenticity of signature as the directors or the transfer agent of the
corporation may reasonably require. Except as may be otherwise required by law,
by the Articles of Organization or by these Bylaws, the corporation shall be
entitled to treat the record holder of stock as shown on its books as the owner
of such stock for all purposes, including the payment of dividends and the right
to receive notice and to vote with respect thereto, regardless of any transfer,
pledge or other disposition of such stock, until the shares have been
transferred on the books of the corporation in accordance with the requirements
of these Bylaws.

     It shall be the duty of each stockholder to notify the corporation of his
or her post office address.

     8.2 Record Date and Closing Transfer Books. The directors may fix in
advance a time, which shall not be more than sixty days before the date of any
meeting of stockholders or the date for the payment of any dividend or making of
any distribution to stockholders or the last day on which the consent or dissent
of stockholders may be effectively expressed for any purpose, as the record date
for determining the stockholders having the right to notice of and to vote at
such meeting and any adjournment thereof or the right to receive such dividend
or distribution or the right to give such consent or dissent, and in such case
only stockholders of record on such record date shall have such right,
notwithstanding any transfer of stock on the books of the corporation after the
record date; or without fixing such record date the directors may for any of
such purposes close the transfer books for all or any part of such period. If no
record date is fixed and the transfer books are not closed:

          (1) The record date for determining stockholders having the right to
     notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of
     business on the date next preceding the day on which notice is given.

          (2) The record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose
     shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of
     directors acts with respect thereto.


              Section 9. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     The corporation shall, to the extent legally permissible, indemnify each of
its directors and officers (including persons who serve at its request as
directors, officers or trustees of another organization in which it has any
interest, as a shareholder, creditor or otherwise) against all liabilities and
expenses, including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or
as fines and penalties, and counsel fees, reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other
proceeding, whether civil or criminal, in which such person may be involved or
with which such person may be threatened, while in office or thereafter, by
reason of such person's being or having been such a director, officer or
trustee, except with respect to any matter as to which such person shall have
been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best interests of the
corporation, and any person serving another organization in one or more of the
indicated capacities at the request of this corporation who shall have acted in
good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was



                                      -8-
<PAGE>

in the best interests of such other organization will be deemed to have acted in
the best interests of this corporation; provided, however, that as to any matter
disposed of by a compromise payment by such director or officer, pursuant to a
consent decree or otherwise, no indemnification either for said payment or for
any other expenses shall be provided unless such compromise shall be approved as
in the best interests of the corporation, after notice that it involved such
indemnification: (a) by a disinterested majority of the directors then in
office; (b) by a majority of the disinterested directors then in office,
provided that there has been obtained an opinion in writing of independent legal
counsel to the effect that such director or officer appears to have acted in
good faith in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in the best
interests of the corporation; or (c) by the holders of a majority of the
outstanding stock at the time entitled to vote for directors, voting as a single
class, exclusive of any stock owned by any interested director or officer. Each
director and officer of the corporation shall, in the performance of his or her
duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the books of account of
the corporation, reports made to the corporation by any of its officers or
employees or by counsel, accountants, appraisers or other experts or consultants
selected with reasonable care by the directors, or upon other records of the
corporation. Expenses, including counsel fees, reasonably incurred by any
director or officer in connection with the defense or disposition of any such
action, suit or other proceeding may be paid from time to time by the
corporation in advance of the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an
undertaking by such director or officer to repay the amounts so paid by the
corporation if it is ultimately determined that indemnification for such
expenses is not authorized under this section. The right of indemnification
hereby provided shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which
any director or officer may be entitled. As used in this section, the terms
"director" and "officer" include their respective heirs, executors and
administrators, and an "interested" director or officer is one against whom in
such capacity the proceedings in question or another proceeding on the same or
