properly be brought before such meeting.

         SECTION 2. Special  Meetings.  Special  Meetings of the Shareholders of
the Corporation may be held at any time in the interval between Annual Meetings.
Special  Meetings  may be called  only by the Board of  Directors  pursuant to a

         SECTION  3.  Place of  Meetings.  Annual and  Special  Meetings  of the
Shareholders  of the  Corporation  shall be held at the principal  office of the

         SECTION 4. Notice of  Meetings.  Written or printed  notice of the time
and place and purpose or purposes of all meetings of the  Shareholders  shall be
given  personally,  or by mail,  not less than ten (10) days nor more than fifty
(50) days before the day fixed for the meeting, to each Shareholder  entitled to
vote at said  meeting,  and such notice must indicate that it is being issued by
or at the  direction of the person or persons  calling the meeting.  Such notice
must also be given to any  Shareholder  who, by reason of any action proposed at
such meeting, would be entitled to have his stock appraised, if such action were
taken,  and such notice must specify the proposed action and state the fact that
if the action is taken, the dissenting  Shareholder shall have appraisal rights.
Such notice shall be given to the Shareholder by leaving the same with him or at
his residence or usual place of business or by mailing it,  postage  prepaid and

every Annual or Special Meeting shall state the place,  day, hour and purpose or
purposes of such meeting; and, in case of any Special Meeting, no business shall

notices,  as provided for in this  Section,  are not required to be given to any
Shareholder  who  submits  a signed  waiver  of  notice,  in person or by proxy,
whether  before or after the meeting.  The  attendance of any  Shareholder  at a
meeting,  in person or by proxy,  without  protesting prior to the conclusion of
the meeting the lack of notice of such  meeting,  shall  constitute  a waiver of
notice by him. No notice of an adjourned  meeting of Shareholders need be given,

date. For the purpose of determining Shareholders entitled to express consent to
or dissent from any proposal without a meeting, or for determining  Shareholders
entitled to receive payment of a dividend or the allotment of any rights, or for
any other  action,  the Board of Directors  may fix a date of record which shall
not be more than fifty (50) days prior to such action.

         SECTION 6. Quorum. At all Meetings of Shareholders, except as otherwise

meeting from time to time,  but not for a period of over thirty (30) days at any
one time,  without  notice other than by  announcement  at the meeting,  until a

proceedings of the Board of Directors or the committee.

                               SHARE CERTIFICATES

         SECTION 1. Form and Signatures. The interest of each Shareholder of the
Corporation  shall be  evidenced  by  certificates  for  shares in such form not
inconsistent  with law or the Certificate of  Incorporation,  and any amendments
thereof,  as the Board of Directors may from time to time  prescribe.  The share
certificates  shall be signed by the Chief Executive  Officer,  a President or a
Vice  President and by the Secretary or an Assistant  Secretary or the Treasurer
or an  Assistant  Treasurer,  sealed  with  the  seal  of the  Corporation,  and
countersigned  and registered in such manner,  if any, as the Board of Directors
may by resolution  prescribe.  Where any share certificate is countersigned by a
transfer agent or registered by a registrar,  other than the Corporation  itself
or its employee, the signatures of any such Chief Executive Officer,  President,
Vice  President,   Secretary,  Assistant  Secretary,   Treasurer,  or  Assistant
Treasurer and such  corporate  seal, may be facsimiles  engraved or printed.  In
case any officer  who has signed or whose  facsimile  signature  has been placed
upon such  certificate  shall have  ceased to be such  officer  before the share
certificate is issued,  such  certificate may be issued by the Corporation  with
the same effect as if such person had not ceased to be such officer.

         SECTION 2. Transfer of Shares.  The shares of the Corporation  shall be
transferred on the books of the Corporation by the registered holder thereof, in
person or by his attorney,  upon surrender for  cancellation of certificates for

endorsed thereon or attached thereto, duly signed by the person appearing by the
certificate to be the owner of the shares represented  thereby,  with such proof
of the  authenticity  of the signature as the  Corporation,  or its agents,  may
reasonably  require.  Such  certificate  shall have  affixed  thereto  all stock
transfer  stamps  required by law. The Board of  Directors  shall have power and
authority to make all such other rules and  regulations as it may deem expedient
concerning the issue,  transfer and  registration of certificates  for shares of
the Corporation.
<PAGE>

         SECTION 3.  Mutilated,  Lost,  Stolen or  Destroyed  Certificates.  The
holder  of  any  certificate   representing  shares  of  the  Corporation  shall
immediately notify the Corporation of any mutilation, loss, theft or destruction
thereof,  and the Board of Directors may, in its  discretion,  cause one or more
new  certificates,  for the same number of shares in aggregate,  to be issued to
such holder upon  satisfactory  proof of such loss, theft or destruction and the
deposit of  indemnity  by way of bond or  otherwise  in such form and amount and
with such  sureties  or  securities  as the Board of  Directors  may  require to
indemnify the Corporation and transfer agent and registrar, if any, against loss
or liability by reason of the issuance of such new  certificates;  but the Board
of Directors may, in its discretion,  refuse to issue such new certificates save
upon the order of some court having jurisdiction in such matters.

         SECTION  4.  Stock  Ledgers.  The  stock  ledgers  of  the  Corporation
containing the names and addresses of the  Shareholders and the number of shares
held by them  respectively  shall be maintained  at the principal  office of the
Corporation,  or if there be a transfer  agent,  at the office of such  transfer
agent, as the Board of Directors shall determine.

         SECTION 5. Transfer Agents and Registrars. The Corporation may have one
or more transfer  agents and one or more registrars of its stock or of any class

                                    ARTICLE V

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         SECTION 1.  Indemnification  of  Directors  and  Officers.  To the full
extent  authorized  or permitted by law, the  Corporation  shall  indemnify  any
person  ("Indemnified  Person")  made,  or threatened to be made, a party to any
action  or   proceeding,   whether   civil,   at  law,   in  equity,   criminal,
administrative,  investigative  or otherwise,  including any action by or in the
right of the  Corporation,  by  reason  of the fact  that he,  his  testator  or
intestate  ("Responsible  Person"),  whether  before or after  adoption  of this
Article:  (a) is or was a director  or officer of the  Corporation,  or (b) if a
director or officer of the Corporation,  is serving or served,  in any capacity,
at the request of the Corporation,  any other  corporation,  or any partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, or (c) if not a
director or officer of the Corporation,  is serving or served,  in any capacity,
at the request of the Corporation,  any other  corporation,  or any partnership,
joint venture,  trust,  employee benefit play or other  enterprise,  against all
judgments,   fines,   penalties,   amounts  paid  in  settlement  (provided  the
Corporation shall have consented to such settlement,  which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld by it) and reasonable expenses,  including attorneys' fees
and costs of investigation,  incurred by such Indemnified Person with respect to
any such  threatened or actual  action or  proceeding,  and any appeal  therein,
provided only that the following  standard of conduct is met (x) the acts of the
Reasonable  Person which were material to the cause of action so  adjudicated or
otherwise  disposed of were not committed in bad faith or were not the result of
active  and  deliberate  dishonesty,  and (y)  the  Responsible  Person  did not
personally  gain in fact a financial  profit or other  advantage to which he was
not legally entitled.
<PAGE>

         SECTION 2. Advancement of Expenses. All expenses reasonably incurred by
an  Indemnified  Person in  connection  with a  threatened  or actual  action or
proceeding  with  respect  to  which  such  person  is or  may  be  entitled  to
indemnification  under this Article shall be advanced or promptly  reimbursed by
the  Corporation  to him in advance of the final  disposition  of such action or
proceeding,  upon receipt of an undertaking by him or on his behalf to repay the
amount of such  advances,  if any, as to which he is ultimately  found not to be
entitled to indemnification or, where  indemnification is granted, to the extent
such advances exceed the indemnification to which he is entitled.

         SECTION 3.  Procedure for Indemnification

                  (a)  Not  later  than   thirty  (30)  days   following   final
disposition of an action or proceeding with respect to which the Corporation has
received written request by an Indemnified Person for  indemnification  pursuant
to this Article,  if such  indemnification  has not been ordered by a court, the
Board of Directors  shall meet and find whether the  Responsible  Person met the
standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 of the Article, and, if it finds that
he did, or to the extent it so finds, shall authorize such indemnification.

                  (b) Such  standard of conduct  shall be found to have been met
unless (i) a judgment or other  final  adjudication  adverse to the  Indemnified
Person establishes that (A) acts of the Responsible Person were committed in bad
faith or were the result of active and  deliberate  dishonesty and were material
to the cause of action so adjudicated,  or (B) the Responsible Person personally
gained in fact a financial profit or other advantage to which he was not legally
entitled;  or (ii) if the action or  proceeding  was  disposed  of other than by
judgment or other final adjudication,  the Board finds in good faith that, if it
had been disposed of by judgment or other final  adjudication,  such judgment or
other final  adjudication  would have been adverse to the Indemnified Person and
would have established (A) or (B) above.

                  (c) If indemnification is denied, in whole or part, because of
such a  finding  by the  Board in the  absence  of a  judgment  or  other  final
adjudication,   or  because  the  Board   believes   the   expenses   for  which
indemnification is requested to be unreasonable,  such action by the Board shall
in no way  affect  the  right  of the  Indemnified  Person  to make  application
therefor  in any  court  having  jurisdiction  thereof,  and in such  action  or
proceeding the issue shall be whether the Responsible Person met the standard of
conduct set forth in Section 1, or whether the expenses were reasonable,  as the
case may be; not  whether  the  finding of the Board with  respect  thereto  was
correct;  and the  determination  of such  issue  shall not be  affected  by the
Board's finding.  If the judgment or other final  adjudication in such action or
proceeding  establishes that the Responsible  Person met the standard of conduct
set forth in Section 1, or that the disallowed  expenses were reasonable,  or to
the extent that it does,  the Board  shall then find such  standard to have been
met if it has not done so, and shall grant such indemnification,  and shall also
grant to the Indemnified Person  indemnification of the expenses incurred by him
in connection  with the action or proceeding  resulting in the judgment or other
final adjudication that such standard of conduct was met, or if pursuant to such
court  determination  such  person is  entitled  to less than the full amount of
indemnification  denied  by  the  Corporation,  the  portion  of  such  expenses
proportionate to the amount of such indemnification so awarded.
<PAGE>

                  (d) A finding by the Board  pursuant to this  Section that the
standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 has been met shall mean a finding (i)
by a quorum  consisting  of  directors  who are not  parties  to such  action or
proceeding or, (ii) if such a quorum is not obtainable or, if obtainable, such a
quorum is unable to make such a finding  and so  directs:  (A) by the Board upon
the written opinion of independent legal counsel that  indemnification is proper
in the circumstances because the applicable standard of conduct has been met, or
(B) by the  shareholders  upon a finding that such  standard has been met,  such
action by the Board or shareholders to be taken as promptly as is practicable.


         SECTION  4.  Contractual  Article.  This  Article  shall be  deemed  to
constitute  a  contract  between  the  Corporation  and  person  who serves as a
Responsible  Person at any time  while this  Article is in effect.  No repeal or
amendment   to  this   Article,   insofar  as  it  reduces  the  extent  of  the
indemnification of any person who could be a Responsible  Person shall,  without
his written  consent,  be effective as to such person with respect to any event,
act or omission occurring or allegedly  occurring prior to: (a) the date of such
repeal or  amendment  if on that date he is not serving in any capacity in which
he is serving on the date of such repeal or amendment,  other than as a director
or officer of the Corporation,  for which he could be a Responsible  Person,  or
(b) the  later of the  thirtieth  (30th)  day  following  the end of the term of
office  (for  whatever  reason) if he is serving as  director  or officer of the
Corporation  on the date of such repeal or  amendment,  with  respect to being a
Responsible  Person in that capacity.  No amendment of the Business  Corporation
Law  shall,  insofar  as it  reduces  the  permissible  extent  of the  right of
indemnification of a Responsible  Person under this Article,  be effective as to
such person with  respect to any event,  act or omission  occurring or allegedly
occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment.

         SECTION 5.  Insurance.  The  Corporation  may,  but need not,  maintain
insurance insuring the corporation or Responsible  Persons for any obligation of
the Corporation for  indemnification  of Responsible  Persons or for liabilities
against which  Responsible  Persons are entitled to  indemnification  under this
Article or insuring  Responsible  Persons for liabilities against which they are
not entitled to indemnification under this Article.

         SECTION  6.  Non-Exclusivity.  The  indemnification  provided  by  this
Article shall not be deemed  exclusive of any other rights to which  director or
officer of the  Corporation or other  corporate  personnel may be entitled under
law other than pursuant to this Article. If the standard of conduct set forth in
Section 1 of this Article is met, the  Corporation is authorized to provide such
persons rights to  indemnification or advancement of expenses in addition to the
provisions  therefor  in this  Article,  to the full  extent  permitted  by law,
pursuant to (a) a resolution of shareholders,  (b) a resolution of directors, or
(c) an agreement providing for such indemnification.

                                    FINANCES

         SECTION  1.  Dividends.  Subject  to law and to the  provisions  of the
Certificate of Incorporation, and any amendments thereof, the Board of Directors
may declare  dividends on the stock of the Corporation,  payable upon such dates
as the Board of Directors may designate.

         SECTION 2. Reserves.  Before payment of any dividend,  there may be set
aside out of any funds of the  Corporation  available for dividends such sums or
sums, as the Board of Directors  from time to time, in its absolute  discretion,
deems proper as a reserve or reserves to meet  contingencies,  or for equalizing
dividends,  or for repairing or maintaining any property of the Corporation,  or
for such other  purpose as the Board of  Directors  shall deem  conducive to the
interest of the  Corporation,  and the Board of Directors  may modify or abolish
any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

         SECTION 3. Bills, Notes, Etc. All checks or demands for money and notes
or other instruments  evidencing  indebtedness or obligations of the Corporation
shall be made in the name of the Corporation and shall be signed by such officer
or officers or such other person or persons as the Board of  Directors  may from
time to time designate.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                   AMENDMENTS

         SECTION 1. Power to Amend.  The Board of Directors shall have the power
to adopt,  amend or repeal the By-Laws of the  Corporation by a majority vote of
the entire Board of Directors at any meeting. Any By-Law adopted by the Board of
Directors  may be amended  or  repealed  at any  meeting  of  Shareholders  by a
majority of the votes cast at such meeting by the holders of shares  entitled to
vote thereon.  However,  the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3%
of the voting power of all of the shares of the Corporation entitled to vote for
the election of Directors  shall be required to amend or repeal Article 8 of the
Restated Certificate of Incorporation,  the related amendments to these By-Laws,
or to adopt any provision inconsistent therewith.

         SECTION 2. Notice of Amendment Affecting Election of Directors.  If any
By-Law  regulating  an impending  election of  Directors is adopted,  amended or
repealed by the Board of  Directors,  there shall be set forth in the Notice for
the next Meeting of  Shareholders  for the  election of Directors  the By-Law so
adopted,  amended or repealed,  together with a concise statement of the changes
made.
