succeeding business day, at such hour as shall be designated by the Board of
Directors. If no other hour shall be so designated such meeting shall be held at

SECTION 1.02 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders, except

and hour of each meeting of shareholders shall be given personally or by mail,
not less than ten nor more than fifty days before the date of the meeting, to
each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting. Notice of a special meeting

that effect. If mailed, such notices of the annual and each special meeting are
given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the
shareholder at his address as it appears in the record of shareholders unless he
shall have filed with the Secretary of the corporation a written request that
notices intended for him shall be mailed to some other address, in which case it
shall be directed to him at such other address.


                                                                               1

SECTION 1.05 Record Date. For the purpose of determining the shareholders
entitled to notice of or to vote any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment
thereof, or to express consent to or dissent from any proposal without a
meeting, or for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to receive
payment of any dividend or the allotment of any rights, or for the purpose of
any other action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the
record date for any such determination of shareholders. Such date shall not be
more than fifty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more
than fifty days prior to any other action.

SECTION 1.06 Quorum. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a
majority of the shares entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum at a
meeting of shareholders for the transaction of business, except as otherwise
provided by statute, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by the By-Laws. The
shareholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at any meeting,
despite the absence of a quorum, shall have power to adjourn the meeting from
time to time, to a designated time and place, without notice other than by
announcement at the meeting, and at any adjourned meeting any business may be

meeting of shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have
been brought before the meeting (a) by or at the direction of the Board of
Directors or (b) by any shareholder of the corporation who complies with the
notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.07. For business to be properly
brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have
given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation. To
be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at
the principal executive offices of the corporation not less than thirty days nor
more than fifty days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event
that less than forty days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the
meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely
must be received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following
the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or
such public disclosure was made. A shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall
set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual
meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the
annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual
meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation's books, of
the shareholder proposing such business, (c) the class and number of shares of
the corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder and (d) any
material interest of the shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything
in these By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual
meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.07
and Section 2.03. The Chairman of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant,
determine and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought
before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.07
and Section 2.03, and if he should so determine, he shall so declare to the
meeting and any such business not properly brought before the meeting shall not
be transacted.

directors may be made by the Board of Directors or to any committee appointed by
the Board of Directors or by any shareholder entitled to vote in the election of
directors generally. However, any shareholder entitled to vote in the election
of directors generally may nominate one or more persons for election as
directors at a meeting only if written notice of such shareholder's intent to
make such nomination or nominations has been given, either by personal delivery
or by United States mail, postage prepaid, to the Secretary of the corporation
not later than (i) with respect to an election to be held at an annual meeting
of shareholders ninety days in advance of such meeting, and (ii) with respect to

each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons)

pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, had the
nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors;
and (e) the consent of each nominee to serve as a director of the corporation if
so elected. At the request of the Board


                                                                               3

of Directors, any person nominated by the Board of Directors for election as a

required to be set forth in a shareholder's notice of nomination which pertains
to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a director of the
corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
By-Laws. The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and

procedures prescribed by these By-Laws, and if he should so determine, he shall
so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be disregarded.

Officer, the President, the Senior Vice Chairman or any Vice Chairman may, and

telegraph, radio, telephone or cable. Notice of a special meeting need not be

or at its commencement, the lack of notice to him.

SECTION 2.06 Place of Meeting. The directors may hold their meetings, have one
or more offices, and keep the books of the corporation (except as may be
provided by law) at any place, either within or without the State of New York,
as they may from time to time determine.

SECTION 2.07 Quorum and Vote. At all meetings of the Board of Directors the
presence of one-third of the entire Board, but not less than two directors,
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Any one or more
members of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may participate in
a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee thereof by means of a
conference telephone or similar communications equipment which allows all
persons participating in the meeting to hear each other at the same time.
Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at such a
meeting. The vote of a majority of the directors present at the time of the
vote, if a quorum is present at such time, shall be the act of the Board of
Directors, except as may be otherwise provided by statute or the By-Laws.

SECTION 2.08 Vacancies. Newly created directorships resulting from increase in
the number of directors and vacancies in the Board of Directors, whether caused
by resignation, death, removal or otherwise, may be filled by vote of a majority
of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum exists.

                INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND OTHERS

SECTION 5.01 The corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section
721 of the New York Business Corporation Law, indemnify any person who is or was
made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or proceeding, whether
civil or criminal, whether involving any actual or alleged breach of duty,
neglect or error, any accountability, or any actual or alleged misstatement,
misleading statement or other act or omission and whether brought or threatened
in any court or administrative or legislative body or agency, including an
action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
and an action by or in the right of any other corporation of any type or kind,
domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the corporation is
serving or served in any capacity at the request of the corporation by reason of
the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of
the corporation, or is serving or served such other corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity,
against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and costs, charges and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, or any appeal therein; provided, however,
that no indemnification shall be provided to any such person if a judgment or
other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that (i)
his acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and, in either case, were material to the cause of action so
adjudicated, or (ii) he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he was not legally entitled.

SECTION 5.02 The corporation may indemnify any other person to whom the
corporation is permitted to provide indemnification or the advancement of
expenses by applicable law, whether pursuant to rights granted pursuant to, or
provided by, the New York Business Corporation Law or other rights created by
(i) a resolution of shareholders, (ii) a resolution of directors, or (iii) an
agreement providing for such indemnification, it being expressly intended that
these By-Laws authorize the creation of other rights in any such manner.

SECTION 5.03 The corporation shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to
any person referred to in Section 5.01 the funds necessary for payment of
expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with any action or
proceeding referred to in Section 5.01, upon receipt of a written undertaking by
or on behalf of such person to repay such amount(s) if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that (i) his acts
were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and, in either case, were material to the cause of action so
adjudicated, or (ii) he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he was not legally entitled.

SECTION 5.04 Any director or officer of the corporation serving (i) another
corporation, of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election
of its directors


                                                                               7
<PAGE>

is held by the corporation, or (ii) any employee benefit plan of the corporation
or any corporation referred to in clause (i), in any capacity shall be deemed to
be doing so at the request of the corporation. In all other cases, the
provisions of this Article V will apply (i) only if the person serving another
corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise so served at the specific request of the corporation, evidenced
by a written communication signed by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief
Executive Officer, the President, the Senior Vice Chairman or any Vice Chairman,
and (ii) only if and to the extent that, after making such efforts as the
Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, or the President shall deem
adequate in the circumstances, such person shall be unable to obtain
indemnification from such other enterprise or its insurer.

SECTION 5.05 Any person entitled to be indemnified or to the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses as a matter of right pursuant to this Article V may
elect to have the right to indemnification (or advancement of expenses)
interpreted on the basis of the applicable law in effect at the time of the
occurrence of the event or events giving rise to the action or proceeding, to
the extent permitted by law, or on the basis of the applicable law in effect at
the time indemnification is sought.

SECTION 5.06 The right to be indemnified or to the reimbursement or advancement
of expenses pursuant to this Article V (i) is a contract right pursuant to which
the person entitled thereto may bring suit as if the provisions hereof were set
forth in a separate written contract between the corporation and the director or
officer, (ii) is intended to be retroactive and shall be available with respect
to events occurring prior to the adoption hereof, and (iii) shall continue to
exist after the rescission or restrictive modification hereof with respect to
events occurring prior thereto.

SECTION 5.07 If a request to be indemnified or for the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses pursuant hereto is not paid in full by the corporation
within thirty days after a written claim has been received by the corporation,
the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to
recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part,
the claimant shall be entitled also to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such
claim. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors,
independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination
prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of or
reimbursement or advancement of expenses to the claimant is proper in the
circumstances, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the
claimant is not entitled to indemnification or to the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses, shall be a defense to the action or create a
presumption that the claimant is not so entitled.

SECTION 5.08 A person who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in
the defense of a civil or criminal action or proceeding of the character
described in Section 5.01 shall be entitled to indemnification only as provided
in Sections 5.01 and 5.03, notwithstanding any provision of the New York
Business Corporation Law to the contrary.


                                                                               8

registrar other than the corporation itself or its employees.

to by vote of the holders of the shares at the time entitled to vote in the
election of any directors. The Board of Directors may also amend, repeal or add
to the By-Laws, but any By-Laws adopted by the Board of Directors may be amended

meeting of shareholders for the election of directors the


                                                                               9
