5.2 Bonus Remuneration.

number of common shares of the Corporation

                                       6
<PAGE>

that is equal to $35,000 divided by the closing price of such shares on NASDAQ

of any applicable securities laws, be fully vested and shall not be subject to

options will be subject to the terms of the Corporation's share option plan and
will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date that such options
vest. In addition to the stock options granted to the Employee on the date
hereof, the Employee shall, in respect of each Year of Employment, receive such
stock options, if any, as the board of directors of the Corporation, in its sole
and absolute discretion may, pursuant to the terms of the Corporation's share
option plan, authorize; provided, however, that the first such grant shall be
considered after the third anniversary of the Effective Date.

5.4. Benefits. The Corporation shall provide to the Employee, in addition to
Salary and stock options, if any, the benefits (the "Benefits"') described in
Schedule 5.4, such Benefits to be provided in accordance with and subject to the
terms and conditions of the applicable plan relating thereto in effect from time
to time.

employment is terminated pursuant to section 8 or section 10 or if the Employee

pay in respect thereof, only that portion of the Salary in respect

                                       7
<PAGE>

of the Year of Employment representing the number of days the Employee actually
worked. For greater certainty, the Employee shall not be entitled to any bonus
in the event that his employment is terminated pursuant to section 8 or 10
hereof.

6. Expenses

      Subject to the terms of the Corporation's expense policy, the Corporation
shall pay, or reimburse the Employee for, all authorized and appropriate travel

performance of his duties and responsibilities, upon presentation of expense
statements or receipts or such other supporting documentation as the Corporation
may reasonably require.

7. Vacation

      The Employee shall be entitled during each Year of Employment, during the
Employment Period to vacation with pay of five weeks. Vacation shall be taken by
the Employee at such time(s) as may be acceptable to the Corporation. Except
with the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer (i) no more than
two weeks of vacation shall be taken consecutively, and (ii) the vacation
entitlement earned in a Year of Employment cannot be carried forward to a
subsequent Year of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that
the Employee's employment is terminated pursuant to section 8 or section 10, the
Employee shall not be entitled to receive any payment in lieu of any vacation to
which he was entitled and which had not already been taken by him.

8. Termination

8.1. Notice. The Employee's employment may, subject to section 10 hereof, be
terminated at any time:

                                       8
<PAGE>

8.1.1 by the Corporation without prior notice and without obligation to the
Employee for reasons of Just Cause;

8.1.2. by the Corporation for any reason other than Just Cause, including the
occurrence of Disability;

8.1.3. or by the Employee on one month's notice to the Corporation. The
Employee's employment shall be automatically terminated, without further
obligation to the Employee, in the event of his death.

8.2. Effective Date. The effective date on which the Employee's employment shall
be terminated shall be:

8.2.1. in the case of termination under section 8.1.1 or 8.1.2, the day the
Employee is deemed, under section 17, to have received notice from the
Corporation of such termination;

8.2.2 in the case of termination under section 8.1.3, on the date one month
after notice to the Corporation; and

8.2.3. in the event of the death of the Employee, on the date of his death.

9. Rights of Employee on Termination

      Where the Employee's employment under this Agreement has been terminated
by the Corporation under section 8.1.2, the Employee shall be entitled, upon
receipt by the Corporation of a release in a form acceptable to the Corporation,
to continue to receive from the Corporation, in addition to accrued but unpaid
Salary, if any, Salary and Benefits for a period of 18 months following the date
the Employee received notice of termination (the "Salary Continuance Period").
At the end of each month during the Salary Continuance Period, the Employee
agrees to provide the Corporation with a statement of all income that the
Employee earned during that

                                       9
<PAGE>

month from the Employee's employment or self-employment activities. The amount
payable to the Employee hereunder by the Corporation in the month following
receipt of such statement will be reduced by one dollar for each two dollars of
income that the Employee received in the preceding month. If, during any
consecutive 12-month period in the Salary Continuance Period, the Employee earns
an amount that is equal to or greater than the Salary that the Employee earned
while he was employed by the Corporation, the Employee will be paid a lump sum
equal to 50% of the remaining payments provided for hereunder. For greater
certainty, payments made to the Employee in respect of his prior employment with
Host Marriott Services Corporation shall not be included in any determination of
the Employee's earnings pursuant to this section 9.

      Except as provided above in this section and subject to section 10, where
the Employee's employment has been terminated by the Employee or by the
Corporation for any reason, the Employee shall not be entitled to receive any
payment as severance pay, in lieu of notice, or as damages.

10. Change of Control

10.1. Termination of Employment by the Corporation for Just Cause. Following a
Change of Control, the Corporation may terminate the Employee's employment at
any time without notice or further obligations to the Employee under this
Agreement for reasons of Just Cause. Following a Change of Control the Employee
shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Just Cause unless and until
there has been delivered to the Employee a copy of a resolution duly adopted by
the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the entire membership of
the board of directors of the Corporation (excluding the Employee if the
Employee is at the time a director of the Corporation) at a meeting of the board
called and held for the purpose (after reasonable notice to the Employee),
finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board the

                                       10
<PAGE>

Employee's conduct constituted Just Cause and specifying the particulars
thereof. The date on which such resolution is given to the Employee shall be the
effective date of any termination pursuant to this section 10.1.

10.2. Termination by the Employee Without Good Reason. Notwithstanding the
provisions of section 8 hereof, if at any time within six months following a
Change of Control the Employment of the Employee is voluntarily terminated by
the Employee for any reason other than (i) Good Reason, Disability, death, or
Retirement; or (ii) by the Corporation for Just Cause, the Employee shall be
entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay to the Employee immediately
following termination, a cash amount equal to the Employee's annual Salary, less
applicable deductions and withholdings.

10.3. Termination of Employment Without Just Cause or for Good Reason.
Notwithstanding the provisions of section 8 and section 10.2 hereof, if at any
time within 24 months following a Change of Control, the Employee's employment
is terminated, (i) by the Corporation other than for Just Cause; or (ii) by the
Employee for Good Reason, the following provisions shall apply:

10.3.1. the Employee shall be entitled to receive, and the Corporation shall pay
to the Employee immediately following termination, a cash amount equal to two
times the Employee's annual Salary, less applicable deductions and withholdings;

10.3.2. if at the date of termination of the Employee's employment, the Employee
holds options for the purchase of shares under a share option plan, all options
so held shall, notwithstanding the terms of the Corporation's share option plan,
(i) immediately vest to the extent they have not already vested at such date;
and (ii) (A) continue to be held on the same terms and conditions as if the
Employee continued to be employed by the Corporation or (B) if the Employee so
elects in

                                       11
<PAGE>

writing within 90 days after the date of termination, be purchased by the
Corporation at a cash purchase price equal to the amount by which the aggregate
"fair market value" of the shares subject to such options exceeds the aggregate
option price for such shares, provided that for this purpose, "fair market
value" means the higher of: (i) the average of the closing prices for the shares
of the same class of the Corporation on NASDAQ for each of the last 10 days
prior to the date that the Employee's employment was terminated; and (ii) if the
Change of Control involved the purchase and sale of such shares, the average
value of the cash consideration paid to the shareholders of the Corporation in
connection with the transactions resulting in the Change of Control.

      For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee's employment shall be deemed
to have been terminated following a Change of Control by the Corporation without
Just Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason, if (i) the Employee's
employment is terminated by the Corporation without Just Cause prior to a Change
of Control and such termination was at the request or direction of a Person who
has entered into an agreement with the Corporation or any shareholder of the
Corporation, the consummation of which would constitute a Change of Control;
(ii) the Employee terminates his employment with Good Reason prior to a Change
of Control and the circumstance or event which constitutes Good Reason occurs at
the request or direction of a Person who has entered into an agreement with the
Corporation or any shareholder of the Corporation, the consummation of which
would constitute a Change of Control; or (iii) the Employee's employment is
terminated by the Corporation without Just Cause prior to a Change of Control
and the Employee reasonably demonstrates that such termination is otherwise in
connection with or in anticipation of a Change of Control which actually occurs.

                                       12
<PAGE>

For greater certainty, this section 10(3) does not apply in the event of the
termination of the employment of the Employee as a result of death, Disability
or Retirement or by the Corporation for Just Cause or, subject to section 10.2,
by the Employee without Good Reason.

10.4 Limitation on Payments Following a Change in Control

      Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any payment to
or for the benefit of the Employee under this Agreement either alone or together
with other payments to or for the benefit of the Employee would constitute a
"parachute payment" (as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code")), the payments under this Agreement shall be
reduced to the largest amount that will eliminate both the imposition of the
excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code and the disallowance of
deductions to the Company under Section 280G of the Code for any such payments.
The amount and method of any reduction in the payments under this Agreement
pursuant to this Section 10.4 shall be as reasonably determined by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

10.5 No Obligation to Mitigate

      The Employee shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment
or Benefits provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or
otherwise, nor (except as specifically provided herein), shall the amount of any
payment provided for in this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by
the Employee as a result of employment by another employer after termination or
otherwise.

11. Relocation

      The Employee understands the importance to the Corporation of his
relocating with his family to the metropolitan area where the Corporation's
principal offices are located and will use

                                       13
<PAGE>

good judgment and discretion, taking into account all relevant factors, toward
completion of such a move after June 30, 2002. Prior to the date that the
Employee relocates, the Corporation will provide the Employee with an apartment
and a per diem. The Employee agrees to spend an average of three business days a
week in the Corporation's offices in the Greater Toronto Area. The parties
acknowledge that prior to relocating, the Employee's principal office will be
located in Bethesda Maryland. The Corporation will reimburse the Executive for
all relocation and out of pocket moving expenses to a maximum of $50,000.

refractive laser corrective surgery business or which competes or competed
directly or indirectly with the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, in
Canada and the United States, during the Employment Period or at the end
thereof, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall
prevent the Employee from owning not more than 5% of the issued shares of a
corporation, the shares of which are listed on a recognized stock exchange or
traded in the over the counter market in

                                       14
<PAGE>

Canada or the United States, which carries on a business which is the same as or
substantially similar to or which competes with or would compete with the
business of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.

13. No Solicitation of Patients, Customers or Suppliers

      The Employee shall not, during (i) the Employment Period; (ii) the
Restricted Period; and (iii) for a period of 1 year following the Restricted
Period, directly or indirectly, contact or solicit any patients, customers or
suppliers of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries for the purpose of
selling to those patients or customers or buying from any suppliers any products
or services which are the same as or substantially similar to, or in any way
competitive with, the refractive laser corrective surgery products or services
sold by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries during the Employment Period
or at the end thereof, as the case may be. For the purpose of this section, a
designated patient or customer means a Person who was a patient or customer of
the Corporation or of any of its Subsidiaries during some part of the Employment
Period.

14. No Solicitation of Employees

      The Employee shall not, during (i) the Employment Period; (ii) the

or attempt to induce, any such person to leave his/her employment.

15. Confidentiality

      The Employee shall not, either during the Employment Period or at any time
thereafter, directly or indirectly, use or disclose to any Person any
Confidential Information; provided,

                                       15
<PAGE>

Common Stock shall, except as otherwise provided in this Section B, be identical
in all respects and shall have equal rights and privileges.

          1.  Voting Rights.
              -------------

              (a) General Voting Rights.  Holders of Series A Common Stock

                  Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate and except as
     may otherwise be required by the DGCL or, with respect to any series of
     Series Preferred Stock, in any resolution or resolutions providing for the

     Directors by this Certificate, the holders of shares of Series A Common

     shall vote as one class with respect to the election of directors and with
     respect to all other matters to be voted on by stockholders of the
     Corporation (including, without limitation, any proposed amendment to this
     Certificate that would increase the number of authorized shares of Series A
     Common Stock, of Series B Common Stock or of any other class or series of
     stock or decrease the number of authorized shares of any such class or
     series of stock (but not below the number of shares thereof then
     outstanding)), and no separate vote or consent of the holders of shares of
     Series A Common Stock, the holders of shares of Series B Common Stock or
     the holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock shall be required
     for the approval of any such matter.

              (b) Election of Series Common Stock Directors.
                  -----------------------------------------

                  (i)    So long as there are not fewer than 10,000,000 shares
       of Series B Common Stock outstanding, the holders of Series B Common
       Stock, voting as a single series, shall have the exclusive right, acting
       by written consent given in accordance with paragraph 1(b)(vi) below or
       by vote at a meeting called for that purpose, to elect the smallest
       number of directors which constitutes a majority of the entire Board of
       Directors (such directors elected by the holders of the Series B Common
       Stock are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Series B
       Directors").

                         In the event that the holders of Series B Common Stock
       are entitled to elect any Series B Common Stock Director(s), then so long
       as there are any shares of Series A Common Stock outstanding, the holders
       of Series A Common Stock, voting as a single series, shall have the
       right, acting by written consent given in accordance with paragraph
       1(b)(vi) below or by vote at a meeting called for that purpose, to elect
       two directors, each of whom must qualify as an Outside Director (such
       directors elected by the holders of the Series A Common Stock are
       hereinafter

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

       referred to as the "Series A Directors," and together with the Series B
       Directors, the "Series Common Stock Directors").

                 (ii)    Each Series Common Stock Director shall hold such
       position until the earliest of the next meeting or written consent of
       stockholders entitled to vote on the election of said director, his
       resignation or his removal.

                 (iii)   At any meeting of stockholders having as a purpose the
       election of directors by holders of the Series A Common Stock and/or
       holders of the Series B Common Stock, as the case may be, the presence,
       in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the voting power
       of the Series A Common Stock then outstanding shall be required and be
       sufficient to constitute a quorum for the election of the Series A
       Directors, and the presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a
       majority of the voting power of the Series B Common Stock then
       outstanding shall be required and be sufficient to constitute a quorum
       for the election of the Series B Directors.  Each Series A Director to be
       elected at such meeting shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of
       the shares of the holders of Series A Common Stock present in person or
       represented by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote in the election
       of Series A Directors or by written consent of the holders of such shares
       given in accordance with paragraph 1(b)(vi) below.  Each Series B
       Director to be elected at such meeting shall be elected by a plurality of
       the votes of the shares of holders of Series B Common Stock present in
       person or represented by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote in
       the election of Series B Directors or by written consent of the holders
       of such shares given in accordance with paragraph 1(b)(vi) below.

                         At any such meeting or adjournment thereof, (i) the
       absence of a quorum of such holders of shares of the Series A Common
       Stock or the Series B Common Stock, as the case may be, shall not prevent
       the election of the directors to be elected by the holders of shares
       other than the series of Common Stock the holders of which do not
       constitute a quorum for such election at such meeting, and the absence of
       a quorum of holders of shares other than the Series A Common Stock or the
       Series B Common Stock shall not prevent the election of the directors to
       be elected by the holders of the Series A Common Stock or the Series B
       Common Stock, as the case may be, and (ii) in the absence of a quorum of
       holders of (x) shares of the Series A Common Stock or Series B Common
       Stock, (y) shares other than the Series A Common Stock or Series B Common
       Stock, or (z) shares of all such classes and series, holders of a
       majority of the shares, present in person or by proxy, of each class or
       series of stock which lack a quorum shall have power to adjourn the
       meeting for the election of directors which such class or series is
       entitled to elect, from time to time, without notice (subject to
       applicable law) other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum
       shall be present.

                 (iv)    Except as provided in paragraph 1(b)(v) below, any
       vacancy in the office of a Series Common Stock Director occurring during
       the effectiveness of the applicable provisions of paragraph 1(b)(i) above
       shall be filled solely by the holders of the series of Common Stock
       entitled to vote for such Series Common Stock Director by vote of such
       holders as provided in paragraph 1(b)(iii)

                                      -7-
<PAGE>

       above at a meeting called for such purpose or by written consent of such
       holders given in accordance with paragraph 1(b)(vi) below.

                 (v)     A Series Common Stock Director may be removed without
       cause by the vote or by written consent of the holders of a majority of
       the outstanding shares of Series A Common Stock or Series B Common Stock,
       as the case may be, which elected such Series Common Stock Director. Any
       vacancy in the office of a Series Common Stock Director shall be filled
       by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding
       shares of the applicable series of Common Stock entitled to elect the
       Series Common Stock Director so removed at a meeting, which may be the
       same meeting at which the removal of such Series Common Stock Director
       was voted upon, or by written consent of the holders of such series of
       Common Stock given in accordance with paragraph 1(b)(vi) below; provided,
                                                                       --------
       however, that if there is a vacancy in the office of one of the two
       -------
       Series A Directors, the remaining Series A Director shall have the power
       to fill the vacancy. Any director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve
       the same remaining term as that of his or her predecessor and until his
       or her successor has been chosen and has qualified.

                 (vi)    With respect to actions by the holders of the Series A
       Common Stock or Series B Common Stock upon those matters on which such
       holders are each entitled to vote separately as a separate series, such
       actions may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without
       a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so
       taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares of Series A
       Common Stock or Series B Common Stock, as the case may be, having not
       less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to
       authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares of such
       series of Series A Common Stock or Series B Common Stock entitled to vote
       thereon were present and voted, and shall be delivered to the Corporation
       as provided in the DGCL.  Notice shall be given in accordance with the
       applicable provisions of the DGCL of the taking of corporate action
       without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent.

                 (vii)   The right of the holders of any series of Common Stock
       to elect Series Common Stock Directors shall be in addition to their
       right to vote, together as a single class with the holders of the Series
       A Common Stock, Series B Common Stock and any series of Preferred Stock
       so entitled to vote, acting by written consent or by vote at a meeting
       called for the purpose of election of directors, in the election of all
       Additional Directors.

         2.  Conversion Rights.
             -----------------

             (a) General; Mechanics of Conversion.  Each share of Series B
                 --------------------------------
     Common Stock shall be convertible at any time, at the option of the holder
     thereof, into one share of Series A Common Stock.

                 (i)     Any such conversion of Series B Common Stock may be
       effected by any holder of shares of Series B Common Stock by surrendering
       such holder's certificate or certificates for the shares of such stock,
       duly endorsed, at the

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

       office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for the Series B Common
       Stock, together with a written notice to the Corporation at such office
       that such holder elects to convert all or a specified number of shares of
       such Series B Common Stock represented by such certificate and stating
       the name or names in which such holder desires the certificate or
       certificates for Series A Common Stock to be issued.

                    (ii)      If so required by the Corporation, any
       certificate for shares surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied
       by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation,
       duly executed by the holder of such shares or the duly authorized
       representative of such holder. Promptly thereafter, the Corporation shall
       issue and deliver to such holder or such holder's nominee or nominees, a
       certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Series A Common
       Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as herein provided (provided
       that the Corporation will use commercially reasonable efforts to make
       such delivery within two Business Days after receipt of the certificate
       or certificates, notice, and if required, instruments of transfer
       referred to above). Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made at
       the close of business on the date of receipt by the Corporation or any
       such transfer agent of the certificate or certificates, notice and, if
       required, instruments of transfer referred to above, and the Person or
       Persons entitled to receive the Series A Common Stock issuable on such
       conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or
       holders of such Series A Common Stock on that date; provided, however,
                                                           --------  -------
       that the conversion may, at the option of any holder surrendering Series
       B Common Stock for conversion, be conditioned upon notice by such holder
       to the Corporation of the occurrence of any specified event.

               (b)  Reservation of Shares.  A number of shares of Series A
                    ---------------------
Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Series A Common Stock that would
be outstanding upon conversion of all shares of Series B Common Stock
outstanding from time to time, shall be set aside and reserved for issuance upon
conversion of shares of Series B Common Stock.

               (c)  No Reissuance.  Shares of Series B Common Stock that have
                    -------------
     been converted hereunder shall be retired and shall not be reissued.
     Shares of Series A Common Stock shall not be convertible into shares of any
     other series or class.

          3.   Dividends. Dividends shall be payable only if, as and when
               ---------
  declared by the Board of Directors out of the assets of the Corporation
  legally available therefor. Subject to paragraph 4 of this Section B, whenever
  a dividend is paid to the holders of one series of Common Stock, the
  Corporation shall also pay to the holders of all other series of Common Stock
  a dividend per share equal to the dividend per share paid to the holders of
  such first series of Common Stock.

          4.   Share Distributions.
               -------------------

               (a)  General.  The Corporation may declare and pay a distribution
                    -------
     consisting of shares of Common Stock or any other securities of the
     Corporation or any other Person (hereinafter sometimes called a "share
     distribution") to holders of the

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

     Common Stock only in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph 4 of
     this Section B of this Article IV.

               (b)  Distributions.  If at any time a share distribution is to be
                    -------------
     made with respect to the Series A Common Stock or Series B Common Stock,
     such share distribution may be declared and paid only as follows:

                    (i)  a share distribution consisting of shares of Series A
       Common Stock (or any securities of the Corporation that are convertible
       into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, or evidence the right to
       purchase shares of Series A Common Stock) to holders of Series A Common
       Stock and Series B Common Stock, on an equal per share basis; or
       consisting of shares of Series A Common Stock (or securities of the
       Corporation that are convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable
       for, or evidence the right to purchase shares of Series A Common Stock)
       to holders of Series A Common Stock and, on an equal per share basis,
       shares of Series B Common Stock (or securities of the Corporation that
       are convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, or evidence the
       right to purchase shares of Series B Common Stock) to holders of Series B
       Common Stock; or

                   (ii)  a share distribution consisting of any class or series
       of securities of the Corporation or any other Person other than as
       described in paragraph 4(b)(i) above, on the basis of a distribution of
       identical securities, on an equal per share basis, to holders of Series A
       Common Stock and Series B Common Stock or on the basis of a distribution
       of different classes or series of securities to holders of Series A
       Common Stock and Series B Common Stock; provided, however, that (x) the
                                               --------  -------
       securities so distributed (and, if applicable, the securities into which
       the distributed securities are convertible, or for which they are
       exercisable or exchangeable, or which the distributed securities evidence
       the right to purchase) do not differ in any respect other than their
       relative voting rights and related differences in designation, conversion
       and share distribution provisions, (y) such rights and provisions shall
       not differ to a greater extent than the corresponding differences in
       voting rights, designation, conversion and share distribution provisions
       among the Series A Common Stock and the Series B Common Stock and (z) in
       each case such distribution is otherwise made on an equal per share
       basis.

               (c)  Reclassifications.  The Corporation shall not reclassify,
                    ------------------
     subdivide or combine any series of Common Stock without reclassifying,
     subdividing or combining all other series of Common Stock, on an equal per
     share basis.

          5.   Liquidation and Dissolution.  In the event of a liquidation,
               ---------------------------
  dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or
  involuntary, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other
  liabilities of the Corporation and subject to the prior payment in full of the
  preferential amounts (including any accumulated and unpaid dividends) to which
  any series of Preferred Stock is entitled, the holders of Series A Common
  Stock, the holders of Series B Common Stock and the holders of any class or
  series of Preferred Stock entitled to participate in such distribution shall
  share equally, on a share for share basis (on an as converted into Common
  Stock basis with respect to any shares of Preferred Stock which are
  convertible into Common Stock, unless the designations,

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such
Preferred Stock provide otherwise), in the assets of the Corporation remaining
for distribution to holders of Common Stock. Neither the consolidation or merger
of the Corporation with or into any other Person or Persons nor the sale,
transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation
shall itself be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Corporation within the meaning of this paragraph 5 of Section B of Article IV.

     6.   Limitation on Issuance of Series B Common Stock.  Except (i) for
          -----------------------------------------------
the shares of Series B Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the March 28 Equity
Arrangements and (ii) as approved by the stockholders of the Corporation
entitled to vote as described in paragraph 1(a) of Section B of this Article IV,
no shares of Series B Common Stock shall be issued except pursuant to paragraph
4 of Section B of this Article IV.

     7.   Regulatory Matters.  If any shares of Series A Common Stock which
          ------------------
would be issuable upon conversion of shares of Series B Common Stock require
registration with or approval of any governmental authority before such shares
may be issued upon conversion, the Corporation will in good faith and as
expeditiously as possible cause such shares to be duly registered or approved,
as the case may be. Without limiting the foregoing, if the conversion of such
shares shall be subject to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of
1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "HSR
Act and Rules"), the Corporation shall promptly comply with any applicable
filing or notice requirements under the HSR Act and Rules and use its reasonable
commercial efforts to furnish the information required in connection therewith
to the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the Department of
Justice. If applicable, the Corporation shall use its reasonable commercial
efforts to list the shares of Series A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Series B Common Stock, in each case prior to delivery of such shares of
Series A Common Stock upon such conversion, on the principal national securities
exchange (including, but not limited to, the Nasdaq National Market) on which
such shares are listed at the time of such delivery.

                                   SECTION C
                            SERIES PREFERRED STOCK

     The Series Preferred Stock may be issued, from time to time, in one or
more series, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating,
optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or
restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in a resolution or
resolutions providing for the issue of such series adopted by the Board of
Directors. The Board of Directors, in such resolution or resolutions (a copy of
which shall be filed and recorded as required by law), is also expressly
authorized to fix:

     (1)  the distinctive serial designations and the division of such shares
          into series and the number of shares of a particular series, which may
          be increased or decreased, but not below the number of shares thereof
          then outstanding, by a certificate made, signed, filed and recorded as
          required by law;

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

     (2)  the dividend rate or amounts, if any, for the particular series, the
          date or dates from which dividends on all shares of such series shall
          be cumulative, if dividends on stock of the particular series shall be
          cumulative and the relative rights of priority, if any, or
          participation, if any, with respect to payment of dividends on shares
          of that series;

     (3)  the rights of the shares of each series in the event of voluntary or
          involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
          and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of shares of
          each series;

     (4)  the right, if any, of the holders of a particular series to convert
          or exchange such stock into or for other classes or series of a
          class of stock or indebtedness of the Corporation, and the terms and
          conditions of such conversion or exchange, including provision for
          the adjustment of the conversion or exchange rate in such events as
          the Board of Directors shall determine; provided, however, that no
                                                  --------  -------
          series of Series Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert into
          Series B Common Stock;

     (5)  the voting rights, if any, of the holders of a particular series;

     (6)  the terms and conditions, if any, for the Corporation to purchase or
          redeem shares of a particular series; and

     (7)  any other relative rights, powers, preferences and limitations of a
          particular series of the Series Preferred Stock.

     The Board of Directors is authorized to exercise its authority with
respect to fixing and designating various series of the Series Preferred Stock
and determining the relative rights, powers and preferences thereof to the full
extent permitted by applicable law, subject to any stockholder vote that may be
required by this Certificate.

     All shares of any one series of the Series Preferred Stock shall be alike
in every particular. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the resolution
or resolutions providing for the issue of any series of Series Preferred Stock,
the holders of shares of such series shall have no voting rights except as may
be required by the laws of the State of Delaware. Further, unless otherwise
expressly provided in the Certificate of Designation for a series of Series
Preferred Stock, no consent or vote of the holders of shares of Series Preferred
Stock or any series thereof shall be required for any amendment to this
Certificate that would increase the number of authorized shares of Series
Preferred Stock or the number of authorized shares of any series thereof or
decrease the number of authorized shares of Series Preferred Stock or the number
of authorized shares of any series thereof (but not below the number of shares
of Series Preferred Stock or of such series, as the case may be, then
outstanding).

     Except as may be provided by the Board of Directors in a Certificate of
Designation or by law, shares of any series of Series Preferred Stock that have
been redeemed (whether through the operation of a sinking fund or otherwise) or
purchased by the Corporation, or which, if convertible or exchangeable, have
been converted into or exchanged for shares of stock of any other class or
classes shall be retired and shall not be reissued.

     may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful
     in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of
     prosecuting such claim.  In any such action the Corporation shall have the

trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity shall be reduced by any amount such Person
may collect as indemnification from such other corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity.
