SHARE  CAPITAL  AND  VARIATION  OF  RIGHTS

16.     If  at  any  time the share capital is divided into different classes of
shares, the rights attached to any class, unless otherwise provided by the terms
of  issue  of the shares of that class, may, whether or not the Company is being
wound  up,  be  varied  by special resolution of the Company with the consent in
writing  of  the holders of three-fourths of the issued shares of that class, or
with  the  sanction of a special resolution passed at a separate general meeting
of  the  holders  of  the  shares  of the class.  To every such separate general
meeting,  the  provisions  of  these Articles relating to general meetings shall
apply mutatis mutandis, but so that the necessary quorum shall be two persons at
least  holding  or  representing  by proxy one-third of the issued shares of the
class  and  so  that  any  holder of shares of the class present in person or by
proxy  may  demand  a  poll.

17.     The rights conferred upon the holders of shares of any class issued with
preferred  or other special rights shall, unless otherwise expressly provided by
the  terms  of  issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the
creation or issue of the further shares ranking equally therewith or in priority
thereto.

18.     Except  as required by law, no person shall be recognized by the Company
as holding any share upon any trust, and the Company shall not be bound by or be
compelled  in  any  way  to  recognize,  even  when  having  notice thereof, any
equitable,  contingent,  future  or  partial  interest in any share or unit of a
share  or,  except  only  as by these Articles or by law otherwise provided, any
other  rights  in  respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety
thereof  in  the  registered  holder.

19.     The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share for all
money,  whether  presently  payable or not, called or payable at a fixed time in
respect  of  that  share,

<PAGE>
and  the  Company  shall  also  have  a  first  and paramount lien on all shares
registered in the name of a single person for all money presently payable by him
or  his  estate  to  the  Company; but the directors may at any time declare any
share  to  be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article.  The
Company  lien, if any, on a share shall extend to all dividends payable thereon.

20.     The  Company  may  sell,  in such manner as the directors think fit, any
shares on which the Company has a lien but no sale shall be made unless a sum in
respect  of which the lien exists is presently payable, nor until the expiration
of  fourteen  days  after  a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment of
such  part  of  the  amount  in respect of which the lien exists as is presently
payable,  has  been  given  to  the  registered holder for the time being of the
share,  or  the  person  entitled  thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy.

21.     To  give effect to any such sale the directors may authorize some person
to  transfer  the  shares sold to the purchaser thereof.  The purchaser shall be
registered  as  the  holder of the shares comprised in any such transfer, and he
shall  not  be  bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall
his  title  to  the  shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the
proceedings  in  reference  to  the  sale.

22.     The proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in
payment  of  such  part  of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is
presently  payable,  and  the residue, if any, shall, subject to a like lien for
sums  not  presently payable as existed upon the shares before the sale, be paid
to  the  person  entitled  to  the  shares  at  the  date  of  the  sale.

MORTGAGES  AND  CHARGES  OF  REGISTERED  SHARES

23.     Members  may  mortgage  or charge their registered shares in the Company
and  upon  satisfactory  evidence  thereof  the Company shall give effect to the
terms of any valid mortgage or charge except insofar as it may conflict with any
requirements  herein  contained  for  consent  to  the  transfer  of  shares.

24.     In  the case of the mortgage or charge of registered shares there may be
entered  in  the  share register of the Company at the request of the registered
holder  of  such  shares :
     (a)     a  statement  that  the  shares  are  mortgaged  or  charged;
     (b)     the  name  of  the  mortgagee  or  chargee;  and
     (c)     the  date  on  which  the  aforesaid particulars are entered in the
     share register.

25.     Where  particulars  of  a  mortgage  or  charge  are  registered,  such
particulars  shall  be  cancelled:
     (a)     with  the  consent  of  the  named  mortgagee  or chargee or anyone
     authorized to act on his behalf; or
     (b)     upon evidence satisfactory to the directors of the discharge of the
     liability  secured  by  the  mortgage  or  charge  and  the  issue  of such
     indemnities as the directors shall consider necessary or desirable.

<PAGE>
26.     Whilst  particulars  of a mortgage or charge are registered, no transfer
of  any share comprised therein shall be effected without the written consent of
the named mortgagee or chargee or anyone authorized to act on his behalf.

CALLS  ON  SHARES

27.     The  directors  may from time to time, in respect of shares having a par
value,  make  calls  upon  the  members  in respect of any money unpaid on their
shares,  whether  on  account  of  the  nominal value of the shares or by way of
premium,  and  not  by the conditions of allotment thereof made payable at fixed
times  and  each  member  shall,  subject  to  receiving at least 30 days notice
specifying the time or times and place of payment, pay to the corporation at the
time  or  times  and place so specified the amount called on his shares.  A call
may  be  revoked  or  postponed  as  the  directors  may  determine.

28.     A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution
of  the directors authorizing the call was passed and may be required to be paid
by  installments.

29.     The  joint  holders  of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to
pay  all  calls  in  respect  thereof.

30.     If  a  sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day
appointed  for  payment  thereof,  the person from whom the sum is due shall pay
interest  on  the  sum from the day appointed for payment thereof to the time of
actual  payment  at  such rate as the directors may determine, but the directors
shall  be  at  liberty  to  waive  payment  of  that interest wholly or in part.

31.     Any  sum  which  by  the  terms  of  issue of a share becomes payable on
allotment  or  at any fixed date, whether on account of the nominal value of the
share  or  by way of premium, shall for the purposes of these Articles be deemed
to  be  a  call duly made and payable on the date on which by the terms of issue
the  same  becomes payable, and in case on non-payment of interest and expenses,
forfeiture  or  otherwise shall apply as if the sum had become payable by virtue
of  a  call  duly  made  and  notified.

32.     The  directors  may,  on  the issue of shares, differentiate between the
holders  as  to  the  amount  of  calls  to  be  paid  and the times of payment.

33.     The directors may, if they think fit, receive from any member willing to
advance  the  same  all  or  any  part of the money uncalled and unpaid upon any
shares held by him, and upon all or any part of the money so advanced may, until
the same would, but for the advance become payable, pay interest at such rate as
may  be  agreed  upon  between  the  directors  and the member paying the sum in
advance.

TRANSFER  OF  SHARES

34.     Subject  to  these  Articles  any  member may transfer all or any of his
shares by instrument in writing in any usual or common form or in any other form
which  the

<PAGE>
directors may approve.  The instrument shall be executed by or on behalf of both
the transferor and the transferee; and the transferor shall remain the holder of
the  shares  transferred  until  the  transfer is registered and the name of the
transferee  is  entered  in  the  register  of  members  in  respect  thereof.

35.     The  instrument  of  transfer  must  be  lodged  for registration by the
Company together with the certificate of the shares to which it relates and such
other  evidence as the directors may reasonably require to show the right of the
transferor  to make the transfer, and thereupon the Company shall subject to the
powers  vested  in  the directors by these Articles register the transferee as a
shareholder  and  retain  the  instrument  of  transfer.

36.     The  directors  may  decline  to  register  any  transfer  of  shares.

TRANSMISSION  OF  SHARES

37.     In  case  of  the  death of a member the survivor or survivors where the
deceased  was  a  joint  holder,  and  the legal personal representatives of the
deceased where he was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognized by the
Company  as  having  any title to his interest in the shares; but nothing herein
contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability
in  respect  of any share which had been jointly held by him with other persons.

38.     Any  person  becoming  entitled  to a share in consequence of the death,
bankruptcy  or  insolvency of a member may, upon such evidence being produced as
may  from  time  to  time  properly  be required by the directors and subject as
hereinafter  provided,  elect  either  to be registered himself as holder of the
share  or  to  have  some  person  nominated by him registered as the transferee
thereof, but the directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline
or  suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the
share  by  that  member  before  his  death,  bankruptcy  or  insolvency.

39.     If  the  person  so becoming entitled elects to be registered himself he
shall  deliver  or send to the Company a notice in writing signed by him stating
that  he  so  elects.  If  he  elects to have another person registered he shall
testify  his  election  by  executing  to  that  person a transfer of the share.

     All the limitations, restrictions and provisions of these Articles relating
to  the  right  to transfer and the registration of transfers of shares shall be
applicable  to  any  such  notice  or  transfer  as  aforesaid  as  if the death
insolvency  or  bankruptcy  of  the  member  had  not occurred and the notice of
transfer  were  a  transfer  signed  by  that  member.

40.     Where  the  registered  holder of any shares dies or becomes bankrupt or
insolvent his personal representative or the assignee of his estate, as the case
may  be, shall, upon the production of such evidence as may from time to time be
properly  required  by  the  directors  in  that behalf, be entitled to the same
dividends  and  other  advantages, and to the same rights whether in relation to
meetings  of  the  corporation,  or  to  voting  or  otherwise,

<PAGE>
as  the  registered  holder  would  have  been entitled to if he had not died or
become bankrupt or insolvent; and where two or more persons are jointly entitled
to  any  share  in  consequence  of the death or insolvency or bankruptcy of the
registered holder they shall, for the purpose of these Articles, be deemed to be
joint  holders  of  the  share.

FORFEITURE  OF  SHARES

41.     If  a  member  fails to pay any call or installment of a call on the day
appointed  for payment thereof, the directors may, at any time thereafter during
such  time as any part of the call or installment remains unpaid, serve a notice
on  him  requiring  payment  of so much of the call or installment as is unpaid,
together  with  any  interest  which  may  have  accrued.

42.     The  notice shall name a further day, not earlier than the expiration of
30  days  from the date of service of the notice, on or before which the payment
required  by  the  notice  is  to  be made, and shall state that in the event of
non-payment  at  or before the time appointed the shares in respect of which the
call  was  made  will  be  liable  to  be  forfeited.

43.     If  the  requirements  of  any such notice as aforesaid are not complied
with,  any  share  in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time
thereafter,  before  the  payment  required  by  the  notice  has  been made, be
forfeited  by  a  resolution  of  the directors to that effect.  Such forfeiture
shall  include all dividends declared in respect of the forfeited shares and not
actually  paid  before  the  forfeiture.

44.     A forfeited share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and
in  such  manner  as  the  directors  think fit and at any time before a sale or
disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the directors think
fit.

45.     A  person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in
respect  of the forfeited shares, but shall notwithstanding remain liable to pay
to the Company all money which, at the date of forfeiture, was payable by him to
the  Company  in  respect of the shares, together with interest from the date of
forfeiture  on the money for the time being unpaid if the directors think fit to
enforce  payment  of  interest, but his liability shall cease to the extent that
the  Company  receives  payment  of  money  in  respect  of  the  shares.

46.     A  declaration  in  writing  that  the  declarant  is  a director or the
secretary  of  the  Company,  and  that  a  share  in  the Company has been duly
forfeited  on  a date stated in the declaration, shall be conclusive evidence of
the  facts  therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the
share.

47.     The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for a forfeited
share on any sale or disposition thereof and may execute a transfer of the share
in  favour  of  the person to whom the share is sold or disposed of and he shall
thereupon  be  registered  as the holder of the share, and shall not be bound to
see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the
share  be  affected  by  any  irregularity  or  invalidity in the proceedings in
reference  to  the  forfeiture,  sale  or  disposal  of  the  share.

<PAGE>
48.     The  provisions  of  these  Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the
case  of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes
payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value of the share or
by  way of premium as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made
and  notified.

49.     A company shall not be liable to account to the person whose shares have
been  forfeited as aforesaid for any consideration received by it on the sale or
other  disposition  of  the  forfeited shares in excess of the liability of that
person  to  the  Company  and  the  Company shall be entitled to retain any such
excess for its own use and benefit but the directors may resolve to pay any such
excess  over  to  the  person  whose  shares  were  forfeited or to his personal
representative  or  assigns.

ALTERATION  OF  CAPITAL

50.  The  Company  may  from  time  to  time  by  special  resolution:
     (a)  increase  the  share  capital  by  such  sum to be divided into shares
     of such amount, or may increase the number of its shares of no par value to
     such number, as the resolution shall prescribe; and
     (b)  increase  its  share  capital  constituted  by  shares of no par value
     by  transferring reserves or profits to the stated capital, with or without
     a  distribution  of  shares.  Any  new  shares shall be subject to the same
     provisions  as to transfer, transmission and otherwise as the shares in the
     original capital.

51.  The  Company  may,  by  special  resolution:
     (a)  consolidate  and  divide  all  or any of its share capital into shares
     of  larger  amount  than its existing shares, or consolidate and reduce the
     number of the issued shares of no par value;
     (b)  increase  the  number  of  its  issued  no par value shares without an
     increase of its stated capital;
     (c)  subdivide  its  existing  shares   or  any  of  them  into  shares  of
     smaller amount than is fixed by its memorandum; provided always that in the
     subdivision the proportion between the amount if any unpaid on each reduced
     share  shall  be the same as it was in the case of the share from which the
     redeemed share is derived;
     (d)  convert  all  of  its  fully  paid  up  ordinary  or  preference share
     capital  consisting  of  shares  having  a  par  value  into stated capital
     constituted by shares of no par value;
     (e)  convert  its  stated   capital   constituted  either  by  ordinary  or
     preference  shares  of no par value into share capital consisting of shares
     having a par value;
     (f)  cancel  any  shares  which,  at   the  date  of  the  passing  of  the
     resolution,  have  not  been  taken  by  any person, or which no person has
     agreed to take;
     (g)  reduce  its  share  capital,  stated  capital,  any capital redemption
     fund  or  any share premium account in any manner and with, and subject to,
     any incident authorization, conditions and consent required, by law;
     (h)  convert  its  issued  preference  shares  into  shares  which  can  be
     redeemed.

time  and  place  as  the  directors  may  determine.

56.     The  Chairman,  if  any,  of  the  board  of  directors shall preside as

present  shall  elect  one  of  their  number  to  be  Chairman  of the meeting.

57.     The  Chairman  may, with the consent of any meeting at which a quorum is
present,  and shall if so directed by the meeting, adjourn the meeting from time
to  time  and  from  place  to place, but no business shall be transacted at any
adjourned  meeting  other  than the business left unfinished at the meeting from
which  the  adjournment  took place.  When a meeting is adjourned for 30 days or

representative  or  by proxy.  Unless a poll is so demanded a declaration by the
Chairman  that  a  resolution  has  on  a  show of hands been carried or carried
unanimously,  or  by a particular majority, or lost, and an entry to that effect
in  the  book containing the minutes of the proceedings of the Company, shall be
conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of the number or proportion of the
votes  recorded  in  favour of or against the resolution.  The demand for a poll
may  be  withdrawn.

59.     If  a  poll is duly demanded it shall be taken in such manner and either
at  once  or  after  an  interval  or  adjournment  or otherwise as the Chairman
directs,  and  the  result of the poll shall be the resolution of the meeting at
which the poll was demanded but a poll demanded on the election of a Chairman or
on  a  question  of  adjournment  shall  be  taken  forthwith.

60.     In  the  case  of  an equality of votes, whether on a show of hands or a
poll,  the  Chairman of the meeting at which the show of hands takes place or at
which  the  poll  is  demanded  shall  have  a  second  or  casting  vote.

61.     Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any
class  or  classes  of shares, at meetings of members or classes of members each
member  entitled  to vote may vote in person or be represented and vote by proxy
or  by  attorney  and on a show of hands every person present who is a member or
representative  of  a  member  shall  have  one vote, and on a poll every member
present  in  person  or  by representative shall have one vote for each share he
holds.

62.     In  the case of joint holders the vote of the senior who tenders a vote,
whether  in  person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes
of  the  other joint holders; and for this purpose seniority shall be determined
by  the  order  in  which  the  names  stand  in  the  register  of  members.

63.     A  member  who is of unsound mind or whose person or estate is liable to
be  dealt  with in any way under the law relating to mentally disordered persons
may  be represented by and vote, whether on a show of hands or on a poll, by his
committee  or  by  his  trustee  or  by  such  other  person as properly has the
management  of  his  estate, and any such committee, trustee or other person may
vote  by  representative  or  proxy.

64.     No  member  shall  be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless all
calls or other sums presently payable by him in respect of shares in the Company
have  been  paid.

65.     No  objection  shall be raised to the qualification of any voters except
at  the  meeting  or adjourned meeting at which the vote objected to is given or
tendered,  and  every vote not disallowed at such meeting shall be valid for all
purposes.  Any such objection made in due time shall be referred to the Chairman
of  the  meeting,  whose  decision  shall  be  final  and  conclusive.

<PAGE>
66.     The  instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing, in the common or
usual  form,  under the hand of the appointer or of his attorney duly authorized
in writing or, if the appointer is a company, under Seal or under the hand of an
officer  or  attorney  duly authorized.  A proxy may but need not be a member of
the  Company.  The  instrument  appointing  a  proxy  shall  be deemed to confer
authority  to  demand  or  join  in  demanding  a  poll.

67.     Where  it  is  desired to afford members an opportunity of voting for or
against a resolution the instrument appointing a proxy shall be in the following
form  or  a  form  as  near  thereto  as  circumstances  admit:

the  powers  of the appointer in his place.  An alternate or substitute director

appointee  from  office.  Any appointment or removal under this Article shall be
effected  by  notice  in writing under the hand of the director making the same.

89.     The  quorum  necessary  for  the  transaction  of  the  business  of the
directors  may  be  fixed  by  the directors; but until so fixed it shall be two
except  where there is only one director appointed when the quorum shall be one.

90.     The  directors  may  act  notwithstanding  any  vacancy in their body or
failure  to  appoint  the  total  number  of  directors  fixed by or under these
Articles but, if and so long as their number is less than the number fixed by or
under these Articles as the necessary quorum of directors a director may act for
the purpose of increasing the number of directors to that number or of summoning
a  general  meeting  of  the  Company,  but  for  no  other  purposes.

91.     The  directors  may  elect a Chairman of their meeting and determine the
period for which he is to hold office, but if no such Chairman is elected, or if
at any meeting the Chairman is not present within fifteen minutes after the time
appointed for holding the meeting, the directors present may choose one of their
number  to  be  Chairman  of  the  meeting.

92.     The  directors may delegate any of their powers to committees consisting
of  such  member  or  members  of their body as they think fit; any committee so

regulations  that  may  be  imposed  on  it  by  the  directors.

93.     A committee may elect a Chairman of its meetings; if no such Chairman is

present,  and  in  the  case  of  an equality of votes the Chairman shall have a
second  or  casting  vote.

95.     All  acts  done  by  any  meeting  of the directors or of a committee of
directors  or  by any person acting as a director shall, notwithstanding that it
is discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any such director
or  person acting as aforesaid, or that they or any of them were disqualified or
had  never  been  qualified,  be  as valid as if every such person had been duly
appointed  and  was  qualified  to  be  a  director.

<PAGE>
96.     A  resolution in writing, signed by all the directors for the time being
entitled  to receive notice of a meeting of the directors, shall be as valid and
effectual  as  if it had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly convened
and  held.  Any  such  resolution may consist of several documents in like form,
each  signed  by  one  or  more  directors.

OFFICERS

97.     The  Company  may  by  resolution  of  directors appoint officers of the
Company  at  such  times  as  shall  be considered necessary or expedient.  Such
officers may consist of a Chairman of the Board of Directors, a Vice Chairman of
the Board of Directors, a President and one or more Vice Presidents, Secretaries
and  Treasurers  and  such  other  officers  as  may from time to time be deemed
desirable.  Any  number  of  offices  may  be  held  by  the  same  person.

98.     The  officers  shall  perform  such duties as shall be prescribed at the
time  of  their appointment subject to any modification in such duties as may be
prescribed  thereafter  by resolution of directors or resolution of members, but
in  the  absence  of  any  specific  allocation  of  duties  it  shall  be  the
responsibility  of the Chairman of the Board of Directors to preside at meetings
of  directors  and  members,  the  Vice  Chairman  to  act in the absence of the
Chairman,  the  President  to  manage the day to day affairs of the Company, the
Vice Presidents to act in order of seniority in the absence of the President but
otherwise  to  perform such duties as may be delegated to them by the President,
the  Secretaries to maintain the share register, minute books and records (other
than  financial  records)  of  the  Company  and  to  ensure compliance with all
procedural  requirements  imposed  on  the  Company  by  applicable law, and the
Treasurer  to  be  responsible  for  the  financial  affairs  of  the  Company.

99.     The  emoluments  of  all  officers  shall  be  fixed  by  resolution  of
directors.

100.     The  officers  of  the Company shall hold office until their successors
are  duly  elected  and  qualified,  but any officer elected or appointed by the
directors  may  be  removed at any time, with or without cause, by resolution of
directors.  Any  vacancy occurring in any office of the Company may be filled by
resolution  of  directors.

CONFLICT  OF  INTERESTS

101.     No  agreement or transaction between the Company and one or more of its
directors  or  any  person  in which any director has a financial interest or to
whom  any  director is related, including as a director of that other person, is
void  or  voidable  for  this reason only or by reason only that the director is
present  at  the  meeting  of  directors  or  at the meeting of the committee of
directors that approves the agreement or transaction or that the vote or consent
of  the  director  is  counted  for  that  purpose  if the material facts of the
interest of each director in the agreement or transaction and his interest in or
relationship to any other party to the agreement or transaction are disclosed in
good  faith  or  are  known  by  the  other  directors.

<PAGE>
102.     A  director  who  has  an  interest  in  any  particular business to be
considered  at  a meeting of directors or members may be counted for purposes of
determining  whether  the  meeting  is  duly  constituted.

SEAL

103.     The  directors  shall  provide  for the safe custody of the Seal, which
shall  be  used  only by the authority of the directors or of a committee of the
directors  authorized  by  the directors in that behalf, and every instrument to
which  the  Seal  is affixed shall be signed by or on behalf of a director or by
some  other  person  appointed  by  the  directors  for  the  purpose.

ACCOUNTS  AND  AUDIT

104.     The  Company  may  by  resolution  of members call for the directors to
prepare  periodically a profit and loss account and a balance sheet.  The profit
and  loss account and balance sheet shall be drawn up so as to give respectively
a  true  and  fair  view  of the profit or loss of the Company for the financial
period and a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company as at the
end  of  the  financial  period.

105.     The  Company  may  by resolution of members call for the accounts to be
examined  by  auditors.

106.     The  first  auditors  shall  be  appointed  by resolution of directors,
subsequent  auditors  shall  be  appointed  by  a resolution of members, or by a
resolution  of  directors.

107.     The  auditors  may  be  members of the Company but no director or other
officer shall be eligible to be an auditor of the Company during his continuance
in  office.

108.     The  remuneration  of  the  auditors  of  the  Company:
     (a)  in  the  case  of  auditors  appointed  by the directors, may be fixed
     by resolution of directors;
     (b)  subject  to  the  foregoing,  shall  be fixed by resolution of members
     or in such manner as the Company may by resolution of members determine.

109.     The  auditors  shall  examine  each profit and loss account and balance
sheet  required  to  be  served  on every member of the Company or laid before a
meeting  of  the  members  of  the  Company  and shall state in a written report
whether  or  not  :
     (a)  in  their  opinion  the  profit  and  loss  account  and balance sheet
     give a true and fair view respectively of the profit or loss for the period
     covered  by the accounts, and of the state of affairs of the Company at the
     end of that period; and
     (b)  all  the  information  and  explanations required by the auditors have
     been obtained.

110.     The  report  of the auditors shall be annexed to the accounts and shall
be  read  at  the  meeting  of members at which the accounts are laid before the
Company  or  shall  be

<PAGE>
served  on  the  members.

111.     Every  auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times
to  the  books  of account and vouchers of the Company, and shall be entitled to
require  from  the  directors  and  officers of the Company such information and
explanations  as  he  thinks  necessary for the performance of the duties of the
auditors.

112.     The auditors of the Company shall be entitled to receive notice of, and
to  attend  any meetings of members of the Company at which the Company's profit

DIVIDENDS  AND  RESERVES

113.     The  directors  may  declare  dividends.

114.     The  directors  may  from  time to time pay to the members such interim
dividends  as  appear  to  the  directors  to be justified by the profits of the
Company.

115.     No  dividends  shall  be  paid  otherwise  than  out  of profits and an
unrealized capital surplus arising on the revaluation of unrealized fixed assets
shall  not  be  treated  as  a  profit for this purpose.  No dividend shall bear
interest  against  the  Company.

116.     The  directors may, before declaring any dividend, set aside out of the
profits  of  the Company such sums as they think proper as reserves which shall,
at  the  discretion of the directors, be applicable for any purpose to which the
profits of the Company may be properly applied, and pending any such application
may,  at  the like discretion, either be employed in the business of the Company
or  be invested in such investments as the directors may from time to time think
fit.  The  directors  may also without placing the same to reserve carry forward
any  profits  which  they  may  think  prudent  not  to  divide.

117.     Subject  to  the  rights  of  persons,  if any, entitled to shares with
special  rights  as  to  dividend,  all  dividends  shall  be  declared and paid
according  to  the  amounts  paid  or  credited as paid on the shares in respect
whereof  the dividend is paid, but no amount paid or credited as paid on a share
in advance of calls shall be treated for the purposes of this article as paid on
the  share.  All  dividends shall be apportioned and paid proportionately to the
amounts paid or credited as paid on the shares during any portion or portions of
the  period in respect of which the dividend is paid; but if any share is issued
on  terms  providing  that  it shall rank for dividend as from a particular date
that  share  shall  rank  for  dividend  accordingly.

118.     The  directors  may  deduct from any dividend payable to any member all
sums  of  money,  if  any, presently payable by him to the Company on account of
calls  or  otherwise  in  relation  to  the  shares  of  the  Company.

119.     Any  dividend  may  be  paid  wholly  or  partly by the distribution of
specific  assets  and  in  particular of paid-up shares, debentures or debenture
stock  of  the  Company  or  of

<PAGE>
any  other  company or in any one or more of such ways and, where any difficulty
arises in regard to such distribution, the directors may settle the same as they
think  expedient, and fix the value for distribution of such specified assets or
any  part  thereof  and  may  determine  that cash payments shall be made to any
members  upon the footing of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of
all  parties,  and  may  vest  any  such specific assets in trustees as may seem
expedient  to  the  directors.

120.     Any  dividend,  interest  or  other money payable in cash in respect of
registered  shares  may  be paid by cheque sent through the post directed to the
registered  address  of  the  holder  or,  in  the case of joint holders, to the
registered  address  of  that one of the joint holders who is first named on the
register of members or to such person and to such address as the holder or joint
holders  may  in writing direct.  Every such cheque shall be made payable to the
order  of  the person to whom it is sent. Any one or more joint holders may give
effectual  receipts for any dividends, bonuses or other money payable in respect
of  the  shares  held  by  them  as  joint  holders.

121.     All  dividends unclaimed for three years after having been declared may
be  forfeited  by  resolution  of  the directors for the benefit of the Company.

PURCHASE  OF  OWN  SHARES

122.     The  Company  may by authority of a special resolution purchase its own
shares  in  any  manner  permitted  by  the  Act.

CAPITALIZATION  OF  PROFITS

123.     The  directors  may resolve that it is desirable to capitalize any part
of  the amount for the time being standing to the credit of any of the Company's
reserve  accounts  or  to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise
available  for  distribution,  and  accordingly  that  such  sum be set free for
distribution,  amongst  the  members  who  would  have  been entitled thereto if
distributed by way of dividend and in the same proportion, on condition that the
same  be  not  paid  in  cash  but be applied either in or towards paying up any
amounts  for  the  time  being  unpaid  on  any  shares  held  by  such  members
respectively  or  paying up in full unissued shares or debentures of the Company
to  be  allotted  and  distributed credited as fully paid up to and amongst such
members  in  the proportion aforesaid or partly in the one way and partly in the
other.

124.     Whenever  such  a  resolution  as  aforesaid shall have been passed the
directors  shall  make  all  appropriations  and  applications  of the undivided
profits  resolved  to  be  capitalized thereby, and all allotments and issues of
fully  paid  shares  or  debentures,  if any and generally shall do all acts and
things required to give effect thereto, with full power to the directors to make
such  provision  by  the  issue of fractional certificates by payment in cash or
otherwise  as  they  think  fit  for  the  case of shares or debentures becoming
distributable  in fractions, and also to authorize any person to enter on behalf
of all the members entitled thereto into an agreement with the Company providing
for  the  allotment  to  them  respectively,  credited  as fully paid up, of any
further  shares  or

<PAGE>
debentures  to  which  they  may be entitled upon such capitalization, or as the
case  may  require,  for  the  payment up by the Company on their behalf, by the
application  thereto  of their respective proportions of the profits resolved to
be  capitalized,  of  the amounts or any part of the amounts remaining unpaid on
their  existing  shares,  and  any  agreement made under such authority shall be
effective  and  binding  on  all  such  members.

NOTICES

125.     A notice may be given by the Company to any member either personally or
by  sending  it by post to him at his registered address. Where a notice is sent
by  post,  service  of  the  notice  shall  be deemed to be effected by properly
addressing,  prepaying  and  posting,  by  airmail  if  appropriate,  a  letter
containing the notice and to have been effected seven days after the date of its
posting.

126.     A notice may be given by the Company to the joint holders of a share by
giving  the notice to the joint holder first named in the register of members in
respect  of  the  share.

127.     A notice may be given by the Company to the persons entitled to a share
in  consequence of the death, bankruptcy or insolvency of a member by sending it
through  the  post  in  a prepaid letter, by airmail if appropriate addressed to
them  by  name or by the title of representatives of the deceased or assignee or
trustee of the bankrupt or insolvent or by a like description at the address, if
any,  supplied  for  the  purpose by the persons claiming to be so entitled, or,
until  such  an address has been so supplied, by giving the notice in any manner
in  which  the same might have been given if the death, bankruptcy or insolvency
had  not  occurred.

128.     (1)  Notice  of  every  general  meeting  shall  be given in any manner
hereinbefore  authorized  to:
     (a)  every  member,  except  those  members  who  have  not supplied to the
     Company an address for the giving of notices to them;
     (b)  every  person  entitled  to  a  share,  in  consequence  of the death,
     bankruptcy  or insolvency of a member, who but for his death, bankruptcy or
     insolvency would be entitled to receive notice of the meeting; and
     (c) the auditor (if any) for the time being of the Company.

(2)     Subject  to  any  specific provisions in these Articles, no other person
shall  be  entitled  to  receive  notices  of  general  meetings.

WINDING  UP

129.     If  the  Company  is  wound  up  the  liquidator may divide amongst the
members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company, whether they
consist  of  property of the same kind or not, and may for that purpose set such
value  as  he  deems  fair  upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may
determine  how  the  division  shall  be  carried  out as between the members or
different  classes of members.  The liquidator may vest the whole or any part of
any  such  assets  in  trustees  upon  such  trusts  for  the  benefit  of

<PAGE>
the  contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no member shall be
compelled  to  accept  any  shares  or  other  securities  whereon  there is any
liability.

AMENDMENT  OF  ARTICLES

130.     The  Company  may  amend its Articles of Association by a resolution of
members  or  by  a  resolution  of  directors.

INDEMNITY

131.     Every  director, managing director, agent, auditor, secretary and other
officer for the time being of the Company shall be indemnified out of the assets
of  the  Company  against  any  liability  incurred  by  him  in  defending  any
proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in his favour
or  in which he is acquitted or in connection with any application under the Act
in  which  relief  is granted to him by the Court or Registrar in respect of any
negligence,  default,  breach  of  duty  or  breach  of  trust.

CONTINUATION

132.     The  Company  may  by  special resolution of members or by a resolution
passed  unanimously  by  all  directors  of  the  Company  continue as a company
incorporated  under  the  laws  of  a  jurisdiction  outside Samoa in the manner
provided  under  those  laws.
