of  the  Corporation  is  hereby  authorized  and  the   designations,   powers,
preferences and relative, participating or other rights, and the qualifications,

Restated  Certificate of Incorporation  of the Corporation,  are hereby fixed as
follows:

     (1) Number of Shares and Designation.  Three Hundred Thousand shares of the

shall have the meanings indicated:

          "Board  of  Directors"  shall  mean  the  board  of  directors  of the
     Corporation  or any  committee  authorized  by such Board of  Directors  to
     perform any of its responsibilities with respect to the Series D Stock.

          "Business  Day" shall mean any day other than a Saturday,  Sunday or a

     value $1.00 per share.

          "Current  Market  Price"  shall mean,  as of a  particular  date,  the
     closing  sale price at which  Common Stock shall have been sold regular way
     on the New York Stock Exchange.

          "Issue  Date"  shall mean the first  date on which  shares of Series D
     Stock are issued.

          "Mandatory Conversion Date" shall mean June 14, 2000.

     other  entity,  and shall include any successor (by merger or otherwise) of
     such entity.

     Section (7) hereof.

          "Transfer Agent" means First Chicago Trust Company of New York or such

     (3)  Dividends.  The  holders  of  shares  of the  Series D Stock  shall be
entitled to receive  dividends in an amount per share of Series D Stock equal to
1,000  times  the per share  amount of all cash  and/or  non-cash  dividends  or
distributions (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock and Class
B Stock) declared by the Board of Directors to be paid on shares of Common Stock
and Class B Stock as and when such  dividends  are paid on the Common  Stock and
Class B Stock;  provided,  however,  that in the event of a non-cash dividend of
property on the Common Stock and Class B Stock, the Corporation may elect to pay
the dividend on each share of Series D Stock in cash in an amount equal to 1,000
times the value of the property (as  determined  by reference to a  then-current
market price for such  property,  if  available,  otherwise as determined by the
Board of Directors)  that is distributed on each share of Common Stock and Class
B Stock.  Each such dividend shall be payable to the holders of record of shares
of Series D Stock, as they appear on the stock records of the Corporation at the
close of business  on such record  dates,  not more than 60 days  preceding  the
payment dates thereof, as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors.

     (4)  Liquidation   Preference.   (a)  In  the  event  of  any  liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,  whether voluntary or involuntary,
before any payment or  distribution  of the assets of the  Corporation  (whether
capital  or  surplus)  shall be made to or set apart for the  holders  of Common
Stock,  Class B Stock or any other  series or class or  classes  of stock of the
Corporation  ranking junior to the Series D Stock as to  distribution  of assets
upon  liquidation,  dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of Series D
Stock  shall be entitled to receive an amount per share equal to 1,000 times the
Current  Market Price of Common Stock on the Business Day  immediately  prior to
the date on which the  liquidation,  dissolution or winding up is first publicly
announced,  plus an amount equal to

                                        2

<PAGE>

all  declared  but  unpaid  dividends;  but  such  holders shall not be entitled
to any further payment.  If, upon any liquidation,  dissolution or winding up of
the  Corporation,   the  assets  of  the  Corporation,   or  proceeds   thereof,
distributable   among  the  holders  of  shares  of  Series  D  Stock  shall  be
insufficient to pay in full the  preferential  amount  aforesaid and liquidating
payments on any other shares of stock ranking, as to distribution of assets upon
liquidation,  dissolution  or winding  up, on a parity  with the Series D Stock,
then such  assets,  or the  proceeds  thereof,  shall be  distributed  among the
holders  of  shares  of  Series D Stock  and any such  other  stock  ratably  in
accordance with the respective  amounts which would be payable on such shares of
Series D Stock and any such other stock if all amounts payable thereon were paid
in full. For the purposes of this Section (4), (i) a consolidation  or merger of
the Corporation with one or more corporations, (ii) a sale or transfer of all or
substantially  all of the  Corporation's  assets  or  (iii)  a  statutory  share
exchange  shall not be deemed to be a  liquidation,  dissolution  or winding up,
voluntary or involuntary.

     (b)  Subject to the rights of the  holders of shares of any series or class
or  classes of stock  ranking on a parity  with or prior to Series D Stock as to
distribution  of assets upon  liquidation,  dissolution  or winding up, upon any
liquidation,  dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,  after payment shall
have been made in full to the  holders of Series D Stock,  as  provided  in this
Section  (4), any other  series or class or classes of stock  ranking  junior to
Series D Stock as to  distribution  of assets upon  liquidation,  dissolution or
winding  up shall,  subject  to the  respective  terms and  provisions  (if any)
applying thereto, be entitled to receive any and all assets remaining to be paid
or distributed, and the holders of Series D Stock shall not be entitled to share
therein.

     (5)  Shares  to be  Retired.  All  shares of  Series D Stock  purchased  or
exchanged  by the  Corporation  or  converted  shall be retired and canceled and
shall be restored to the status of authorized  but unissued  shares of preferred
stock, without designation as to series.

     (6) Adjustments to Series D Stock. (a) Whenever the Corporation shall after
the Issue Date (i) pay a dividend or make a distribution  on its Common Stock in
shares of its Common Stock,  (ii) subdivide its outstanding  Common Stock into a
greater  number of shares,  (iii)  combine its  outstanding  Common Stock into a
smaller  number  of  shares  or (iv)  issue  any  shares  of  capital  stock  by
reclassification  of its Common Stock,  the Corporation  shall also take similar
action at the same time with respect to the Series D Stock so that the holder of
any share of Series D Stock thereafter shall be entitled to receive an amount in
dividends  per share of Series D Stock which such holder would have  received or
have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described
above had such share been converted into Common Stock  immediately  prior to the
happening of such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier.

     (b) In case the  Corporation  shall  take any other  action  affecting  the
Common Stock (including,  without limitation,  (i) issuing rights or warrants to
holders of Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock
at a price per  share  less than the  Current  Market  Price per share of Common
Stock, (ii) issuing securities exchangeable or convertible into shares of Common
Stock at a price  per  share  less than the  Current  Market  Price per share of
Common Stock,  or (iii) effecting a pro rata repurchase of Common Stock pursuant
to an offer subject to Section 13(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended,  or pursuant to any other offer available to substantially  all holders
of

                                        3
<PAGE>

Common  Stock, other  than  such  purchases  made in open market  transactions),
which in the  opinion  of the Board of  Directors  would  adversely  affect  the
dividend or other rights of the holders of the shares of Series D Stock,  action
affecting the Series D Stock shall be taken, to the extent  permitted by law, in
such manner,  if any, and at such time, as the Board of Directors  determines to
be equitable in the circumstances to mitigate such adverse effect.

     (7)  Conversion.  (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of
this Section (7), a holder of shares of Series D Stock shall have the right,  at
his or her  option,  at any time  prior to the  Mandatory  Conversion  Date,  to
convert  each share of Series D Stock into  1,000  fully paid and  nonassessable
shares of Common Stock (any such conversion being  hereinafter  referred to as a
"voluntary conversion").  On the Mandatory Conversion Date, each share of Series
D Stock then outstanding shall  automatically  convert into 1,000 fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock (such conversion being hereinafter referred
to as a "mandatory conversion").

     (b) In order to exercise the voluntary conversion right, the holder of each
share  of  Series  D Stock  to be  converted  shall  surrender  the  certificate
representing  such share,  duly  endorsed or assigned to the  Corporation  or in
blank, at the office of the Transfer Agent in the Borough of Manhattan,  City of
New York,  accompanied  by  written  notice to the  Corporation  that the holder
thereof elects to convert Series D Stock or a specified portion thereof.  Unless
the shares issuable on voluntary conversion are to be issued in the same name as
the name in which  such  share of  Series  D Stock  is  registered,  each  share
surrendered  for voluntary  conversion  shall be  accompanied  by instruments of
transfer,  in form satisfactory to the Corporation,  duly executed by the holder
or such holder's duly  authorized  attorney and an amount  sufficient to pay any
transfer or similar tax (or evidence reasonably  satisfactory to the Corporation
demonstrating that such taxes have been paid).

     Each voluntary conversion shall be deemed to have been effected immediately
prior  to  the  close  of  business  on  the  date  on  which  the  certificates
representing  shares of Series D Stock  shall  have  been  surrendered  and such
notice  received by the  Corporation as aforesaid,  and the person or persons in
whose name or names any certificate or  certificates  for shares of Common Stock
shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder
or  holders  of record of the  shares  represented  thereby at such time on such
date, unless the stock transfer books of the Corporation shall be closed on that
date,  in which event such person or persons shall be deemed to have become such
holder or holders of record at the close of business on the next  succeeding day
on which such stock transfer books are open.

     Each  mandatory  conversion  shall be  deemed  to have  been  automatically
effected  immediately prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion
Date,  without any action on the part of the Corporation or the holder of Series
D Stock subject to mandatory  conversion.  On and after the Mandatory Conversion
Date, each certificate  representing shares of Series D Stock shall be deemed to
represent  1,000  shares  of  Common  Stock  for  every  share of Series D Stock
represented by such certificate and the person or persons in whose name or names
such  certificate  is registered  shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as
and  entitled to all the rights of, a holder or holders of said number of shares
of
                                       4

<PAGE>

Common  Stock.  On  and  after  the  Mandatory  Conversion  Date,  each Series D
Stock  certificate  shall  be  surrendered  to the  Corporation,  whereupon  the
Corporation  shall  issue a  certificate  or  certificates  representing  in the
aggregate  1,000  shares  of  Common  Stock  for each  share  of  Series D Stock
represented by the certificate so surrendered;  provided,  however, that failure
to so surrender such Series D Stock  certificate  shall not affect the status of
the holder or holders thereof, on and after the Mandatory  Conversion Date, as a
holder or holders of 1,000  shares of Common  Stock for every  share of Series D
Stock represented by such certificate as provided aforesaid.

     Holders of shares of Series D Stock at the close of  business on a dividend
payment  record date shall be entitled to receive the  dividend  payable on such
shares on the corresponding dividend payment date notwithstanding the conversion
thereof, whether voluntary or mandatory,  following such dividend payment record
date and prior to such dividend payment date.

     As promptly as practicable after the surrender of certificates representing
shares of Series D Stock as  aforesaid,  the  Corporation  shall issue and shall
deliver  at such  office  to such  holder,  or on his or her  written  order,  a
certificate  or  certificates  for the  number of full  shares  of Common  Stock
issuable upon the conversion of such shares, whether voluntary or mandatory,  in
accordance with the provisions of this Section (7).

     All  shares of Common  Stock  delivered  upon  conversions  of the Series D
Stock,  whether  voluntary or mandatory,  will upon delivery be duly and validly
issued and fully paid and nonassessable.

     (c) In case the Corporation shall be a party to any transaction  (including
without limitation a merger, consolidation,  sale of all or substantially all of
the Corporation's  assets or  recapitalization of the Common Stock and excluding
any  transaction as to which  paragraph (a) of Section (6) applies) (each of the
foregoing  being  referred to as a  "Transaction"),  in each case as a result of
which shares of Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive stock,
securities or other property (including cash or any combination  thereof),  each
share of Series D Stock which is not converted  into the right to receive stock,
securities  or  other  property  in  connection  with  such  Transaction   shall
thereafter be convertible  into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other
securities and property  receivable  (including  cash) upon the  consummation of
such  Transaction by a holder of 1,000 shares of Common Stock.  The  Corporation
shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are
consistent with the provisions of this paragraph (c) and it shall not consent or
agree to the occurrence of any  Transaction  until the  Corporation  has entered
into an agreement with the successor or purchasing  entity,  as the case may be,
for the  benefit  of the  holders  of the  Series  D Stock  which  will  contain
provisions  enabling the holders of the Series D Stock which remains outstanding
after  such  Transaction  to  convert  each  share of  Series  D Stock  into the
consideration  received by holders of 1,000 shares of Common Stock in connection
with the Transaction. The provisions of this paragraph (c) shall similarly apply
to successive Transactions.

     (d) The  Corporation  covenants  that it will at all times reserve and keep
available,  free from preemptive  rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized
but unissued shares of Common Stock or its issued shares of Common Stock held in
its treasury,  or both, for the
                                       5

<PAGE>

purpose  of  effecting  conversion  of  the  Series D Stock,  the full number of
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares
of Series D Stock not theretofore converted. For purposes of this paragraph (d),
the  number of  shares  of Common  Stock  which  shall be  deliverable  upon the
conversion of all  outstanding  shares of Series D Stock shall be computed as if
at the time of  computation  all such  outstanding  shares were held by a single
holder.

     The  Corporation  shall, to the extent  necessary,  use its best efforts to
list the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered upon  conversion of the
Series D Stock prior to such delivery upon the New York Stock Exchange.

     Prior to the  delivery of any  securities  which the  Corporation  shall be
obligated  to deliver upon  conversion  of the Series D Stock,  the  Corporation
shall  use its best  efforts  to comply  with all  federal  and  state  laws and
regulations  thereunder  requiring the  registration of such securities with, or
any  approval  of or  consent  to the  delivery  thereof  by,  any  governmental
authority.

     (e) The  Corporation  shall pay any and all  documentary  stamp or  similar
issue or  transfer  taxes  payable in respect of the issue or delivery or deemed
issuance  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  on  conversion,  whether  voluntary  or
mandatory,  of the Series D Stock pursuant hereto;  provided,  however, that the
Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect
of any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock in a
name other than that of the holder of the Series D Stock to be converted  and no
such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such
issue or delivery has paid to the  Corporation the amount of any such tax or has
established,  to the reasonable  satisfaction of the Corporation,  that such tax
has been paid.

     (8)  Ranking.  Any class or  classes of stock of the  Corporation  shall be
deemed to rank:

     (i)  prior to the Series D Stock,  as to dividends or as to distribution of
          assets upon liquidation,  dissolution or winding up, if the holders of
          such class shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts
          distributable upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case
          may be, in preference or priority to the holders of Series D Stock;

     (ii) on a parity with the Series D Stock, as to distribution of assets upon
          liquidation, dissolution or winding up, whether or not the liquidation
          prices  per share  thereof  be  different  from  those of the Series D
          Stock,  if the  holders  of such class of stock and the Series D Stock
          shall  be  entitled  to the  receipt  of  amounts  distributable  upon
          liquidation,  dissolution  or  winding  up,  as the  case  may be,  in
          proportion to their respective amounts of liquidation prices,  without
          preference or priority one over the other;

     (iii)on a parity with the Series D Stock,  as to  dividends,  if such stock
          shall be Common Stock or Class B Stock or any other class of stock the
          holders of which shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends only as
          and when dividends are paid

                                      6

<PAGE>
          on Common Stock and Class B Stock; and

     (iv) junior to the Series D Stock,  as to the  distribution  of assets upon
          liquidation,  dissolution or winding up, if such stock shall be Common
          Stock or Class B Stock or if the  holders  of Series D Stock  shall be
          entitled  to  receipt  of  amounts   distributable  upon  liquidation,
          dissolution  or  winding  up,  as the case may be,  in  preference  or
          priority to the holders of shares of such stock.

     (9)  Voting.  Each share of Series D Stock shall be entitled to 1,000 votes
per share.  The shares of Series D Stock shall vote  together as a single  class
with all shares of Common Stock and Class B Stock.  In addition,  so long as any
shares of the Series D Stock remain  outstanding,  the consent of the holders of
at least  two-thirds  of the  shares of Series D Stock  outstanding  at the time
given in person  or by proxy,  either in  writing  or at any  special  or annual
meeting, shall be necessary to permit, effect or validate any one or more of the
following:

     (i)  The  authorization,  creation  or  issuance,  or any  increase  in the
authorized  or issued  amount,  of any class or series of stock ranking prior to
Series D Stock as to the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up, or

     (ii) The amendment,  alteration or repeal, whether by merger, consolidation
or  otherwise,  of  any  of  the  provisions  of  the  Restated  Certificate  of
Incorporation of the Corporation which would materially and adversely affect any
right,  preference or voting power of Series D Stock or of the holders  thereof;
provided, however, that any increase in the amount of authorized preferred stock
or the creation and issuance of other series of preferred stock, or any increase
in the  amount of  authorized  shares of such  series or of any other  series of
preferred stock, in each case ranking on a parity with or junior to the Series D
Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon  liquidation,  dissolution
or winding  up,  shall not be deemed to  materially  and  adversely  affect such
rights, preferences or voting powers.

     (10) Record  Holders.  The  Corporation and the Transfer Agent may deem and
treat the  record  holder of any shares of Series D Stock as the true and lawful
owner thereof for all  purposes,  and neither the  Corporation  nor the Transfer
Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
