     amendments.

     Underlined bold text indicates text to be added upon effectiveness of
     amendments.

     The following Sections of the Articles of Association shall be amended and
restated in their entirety to read as set forth below:

6. (b) Notwithstanding Article 6(a) of these Articles, the Company shall not
issue any shares in a manner that the Board of Directors of the Company believes
would cause, by reason of such issuance, the total Controlled Shares of any
Person to equal or exceed 10% of a class of the Company's shares; provided,
however, that this provision shall not apply to (i) the issuance of shares to
                                                -----------------------------
Pacific Life Insurance Company in such amount so that Pacific Life Insurance
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Company's Controlled Shares do not exceed 24.9% of a class of the Company's
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
shares and (ii) any issuance of shares to a person acting as an underwriter in
---------------
the ordinary course of its business, purchasing such shares pursuant to a
purchase agreement to which the company is a party, for resale.

9. (b) Except with respect to transfers of the Company's shares executed on the
NASDAQ National Market, the Directors shall decline to register a transfer of
shares if the Directors have reason to believe that the effect of such transfer
would be to increase the number of total Controlled Shares of any Person to ten
percent (10%) or any higher percentage of a class of the Company's shares on an
Unadjusted Basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pacific Life Insurance Company,
                  --------------------------------------------------------------
Pacific Mutual Holding Company, Pacific LifeCorp and/or any direct or indirect
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company (each, a "Pacific Life
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entity", provided however, that any Pacific Life Entity shall cease to be a
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pacific Life Entity in the event it is no longer a 100% direct or indirect
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company), shall each be permitted to
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
transfer shares of the Company to another Pacific Life Entity, provided that the
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities in the aggregate do not exceed
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
24.9% of a class of the Company's shares.
-----------------------------------------

47. (a) Subject to Article 6, every Member of record present in person or by
proxy shall have one vote for each issued and outstanding Ordinary Share
registered in his name in the register; PROVIDED THAT, subject to the following
provisions of this Article 47, if and for so long as the number of Controlled
Shares of any Person other than a Pacific Life Entity would constitute 10% or
                     --------------------------------
more of the total combined voting rights attaching to the issued shares of the
                                                                        ------
Company (calculated after giving effect to any prior reductions in voting rights
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
attaching to Controlled Shares of other persons as provided in this Article
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
47), or the total number of Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
would constitute 25% or more of the total combined voting rights attaching to
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
the issued shares of the Company (calculated after giving effect to any prior
-----------------
reductions in voting rights attaching to Controlled Shares of other persons as
provided in this Article 47), each such issued controlled Share, regardless of
the identity of the registered holder thereof, shall confer only a fraction of a
vote as determined by the following formula (the "Formula"):

     (T-C)/([9.1]XxC)
                 -

Where:    "T" is the aggregate number of votes conferred by all the issued
          shares immediately prior to that application of the Formula adjusted
          to take into account any prior reduction taken with respect to any
          other Member pursuant to Article 47(d) as at the same date;

          "C" is the number of issued Controlled Shares attributable to such
          Person; and

          "X" is (i) 9.1 if such Person is any Person other than a Pacific Life
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
          Entity or (ii) 3.016 if the Formula is being applied to determine the
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
          reduction in total combined voting rights attributable to the total
          -------------------------------------------------------------------
          number of Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities.
          ---------------------------------------------------------

                                       7
<PAGE>

47. (d) The Formula shall be applied successively as many times as may be
necessary to ensure that no Person other than a Pacific Life Entity shall be a
                                   --------------------------------
10% Shareholder at any time, and that the total combined voting rights attached
                             --------------------------------------------------
to the Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities shall not exceed 24.9% at
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
any time. For the purposes of determining the votes exercisable by Members as at
--------
any date, the Formula shall be applied first to the votes of Controlled Shares
attributable to the Person to whom the greatest number of Controlled Shares are
attributed and successively to the Controlled Shares attributable to them, in
each case calculations being made on the basis of the aggregate number of votes
conferred by the issued shares as at such date as reduced by the application of
the Formula to any larger number of Controlled Shares as at such date.

47. (e) Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles 47(a) and (d) above, having
applied the provisions thereof as best as they consider reasonably practicable,
the Directors may make such final adjustments to the aggregate number of votes
attaching to the shares of any Member that they consider fair and reasonable in
all the circumstances to ensure that no Person other than a Pacific Life Entity
                                               --------------------------------
shall be a 10% Shareholder at any time, and that the voting rights attached to
                                        --------------------------------------
the Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities shall not exceed 24.9 % at
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
any time.
--------

89. (b) If the Company redeems or purchases shares or directs the sale and
transfer of such shares pursuant to this Article 89, it shall do so only in a
manner the Board believes would not result, upon consummation of such redemption
or purchase, in the total number of Controlled Shares of any Person other than
                    -----                                           ----------
a Pacific Life Entity, increasing to ten percent (10%) or any higher percentage
---------------------
of a class of the Company's shares on an Unadjusted Basis or the total number of
                                                          ----------------------
Controlled Shares of the Pacific Life Entities increasing to twenty-five percent
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(25%) or any higher percentage of a class of the Company's shares on a
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unadjusted Basis.
