Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         Section  145  of  the  Delaware   General   Corporation   Law  ("DGCL")
authorizes,  inter  alia,  a  corporation  generally  to  indemnify  any  person
("indemnitee")  who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened,  pending or  completed  action,  suit or  proceeding  (other than an
action  by or in the right of the  corporation)  by reason of the fact that such
person is or was a director,  officer, employee or agent of the corporation,  or
is or was serving at the request of the corporation,  in a similar position with
another  corporation or entity,  against expenses  (including  attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in  connection  with such action,  suit or proceeding if he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests  of the  corporation  and,  with  respect  to any  criminal  action or
proceeding,  had no reasonable  cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  With
respect to actions or suits by or in the right of the corporation;  however,  an
indemnitee who acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably  believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation is generally  limited
to attorneys' fees and other expenses,  and no indemnification  shall be made if
such person is adjudged liable to the corporation  unless and only to the extent
that a court  of  competent  jurisdiction  determines  that  indemnification  is
appropriate. Section 145 further provides that any indemnification shall be made
by the corporation only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination
by the (i) stockholders, (ii) board of directors by a majority voted of a quorum
consisting of directors who were not parties to such action,  suit or proceeding
or (iii) independent counsel if a quorum of disinterested  directors so directs,
that  indemnification  of the  indemnitee  is  proper  because  he has  met  the
applicable  standard  of  conduct.  Section 145  provides  that  indemnification
pursuant to its  provisions is not exclusive of other rights of  indemnification
to  which  a  person  may be  entitled  under  any  bylaw,  agreement,  vote  of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

         Article IX of the InteliData  Technologies  Corporation  ("InteliData")
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that InteliData shall
indemnify any and all persons permitted to be indemnified by Section 145 of DGCL
to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

         Section 7.02 of the InteliData  Bylaws,  provides,  in substance,  that
directors,  officers,  employees and agents shall be  indemnified to the fullest
extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL.

         InteliData  intends  to  enter  into  indemnification  agreements  with
certain of its directors  providing for  indemnification  to the fullest  extent
permitted by the laws of the State of  Delaware.  These  agreements  provide for
specific  procedures to better assure the directors' rights to  indemnification,
including  procedures  for  directors to submit  claims,  for  determination  of
directors'  entitlement  to  indemnification  (including  the  allocation of the
burden of proof and  selection  of a  reviewing  party) and for  enforcement  of
directors' indemnification rights.

Item 9.  Undertakings

         (a)   The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
               1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are made,
a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                         (i)       To  include  any   prospectus   required  by
                                   Section  10(a)(3) of the  Securities  Act of
                                   1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");

                         (ii)      To  reflect in the  prospectus  any facts or
                                   events  arising after the effective  date of
                                   the  registration  statement  (or  the  most
                                   recent  post-effective   amendment  thereof)
                                   which,  individually  or in  the  aggregate,
                                   represent a fundamental change in the
                                   information set forth in the registration
                                   statement;

                         (iii)     To include  any  material  information  with
                                   respect  to the  plan  of  distribution  not
                                   previously  disclosed  in  the  registration
                                   statement  or any  material  change  in such
                                   information in the registration statement;

provided,  however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
information  required  to be  included in a  post-effective  amendment  by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant  pursuant to
Section  13 or  Section  15(d) of the  Exchange  Act that  are  incorporated  by
reference in the registration statement.

<PAGE>

               2.  That,  for the purpose of determining  any liability  under
the Securities Act, each such  post-effective  amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration  statement relating to the securities offered therein,  and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

               3.  To remove from registration  by means of a  post-effective
amendment any of the  securities  being  registered  which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

         (b) The undersigned  registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining  any  liability  under  the  Securities  Act,  each  filing  of  the
registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act, and,  where  applicable,  each filing of an employee  benefit plan's annual
report  pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, that is  incorporated  by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities  offered therein,  and the offering of such
securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial  bona fide  offering
thereof.

         (c)  Insofar  as  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising  under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons
of the registrant  pursuant to the provisions  described  under Item 6 above, or
otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission
such  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in the  Securities
Act,  and  is,  therefore,   unenforceable.  In  the  event  that  a  claim  for
indemnification  against  such  liabilities  (other  than  the  payment  by  the
registrant of expenses  incurred or paid by a director,  officer or  controlling
person of the  registrant  in the  successful  defense  of any  action,  suit or
proceeding)  is  asserted by such  director,  officer or  controlling  person in
connection with the securities being registered,  the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit  to a  court  of  appropriate  jurisdiction  the  question  whether  such
indemnification  by it is against  public policy as expressed in the  Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                    Amendment to Certificate of Incorporation

                Series A Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock


Section 1.        Designation and Amount.

         The shares of such series shall be designated as Series A Participating
Cumulative  Preferred  Stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Series A Preferred
Stock"), and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 100,000 (one
hundred thousand).


Section 2.        Dividends and Distributions.


         (a) The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in preference to
the  holders  of shares of Common  Stock,  par  value  $.001 per  share,  of the
Corporation  (the  "Common  Stock")  and  of  any  other  junior  stock  of  the
Corporation that may be outstanding,  shall be entitled to receive, when, as and
if declared by the Board of Directors  out of funds  legally  available  for the
purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the tenth day of January, April,
July and  October in each year (each  such date  being  referred  to herein as a
"Quarterly  Dividend Payment Date"),  commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend
Payment  Date  after the first  issuance  of a share or  fraction  of a share of
Series A Preferred  Stock,  in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent)
equal to the greater of (i) $.25 per share ($1.00 per annum), or (ii) subject to
the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 1000 times the aggregate per
share  amount of all cash  dividends,  and 1000  times the  aggregate  per share
amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other
than a  dividend  payable in shares of Common  Stock,  or a  subdivision  of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise),  declared
on the Common Stock since the immediately  preceding  Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly  Dividend  Payment Date,  since the
first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred  Stock.
In the event that the corporation  shall at any time declare or pay any dividend
on Common Stock  payable in shares of Common Stock,  or effect a subdivision  or
combination  or  consolidation  of the  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock (by
reclassification  or  otherwise)  into a greater  or lesser  number of shares of
Common  Stock,  then and in each such  event,  the amount to which the holder of
each share of Series A Preferred  Stock was entitled  immediately  prior to such
event  under  clause  (ii)  of the  preceding  sentence  shall  be  adjusted  by
multiplying  such amount by a fraction,  the numerator of which is the number of
shares of  Common  Stock  outstanding  immediately  after  such  event,  and the
denominator  of  which is the  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  that  were
outstanding immediately prior to such event.


         (b) The  Corporation  shall declare a dividend or  distribution  on the
Series  A  Preferred  Stock as  provided  in  paragraph  (a) of this  Section  2
immediately  after it declares a dividend or  distribution  on the Common  Stock
(other than a dividend  payable in shares of Common Stock);  provided,  however,
that in the event no dividend or  distribution  shall have been  declared on the
Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly  Dividend  Payment Date and
the next  subsequent  Quarterly  Dividend  Payment Date, a dividend of $.25 per
share ($1.00 per annum) on the Series A Preferred Stock shall  nevertheless be
payable on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.

<PAGE>
         (c) Dividends  shall begin to accrue and be  cumulative on  outstanding
shares of Series A Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next
preceding the date of issue of such shares of Series A Preferred  Stock,  unless
the date of issue of such  shares  is  prior to the  record  date for the  first
Quarterly  Dividend  Payment Date, in which case  dividends on such shares shall
begin to accrue  from the date of issue of such  shares,  or unless  the date of
issue is a Quarterly  Dividend  Payment  Date or is a date after the record date
for the  determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled
to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date,
in either of which cases such dividends  shall begin to accrue and be cumulative
from such Quarterly  Dividend  Payment Date.  Accrued but unpaid dividends shall
cumulate but shall not bear  interest.  Dividends paid on the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the
time  accrued  and  payable  on such  shares  shall be  allocated  pro rata on a
share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of
Directors  may fix a record date for the  determination  of holders of shares of
Series  A  Preferred  Stock  entitled  to  receive  payment  of  a  dividend  or
distribution declared thereon,  which record date shall be not more than 60 days
prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.

         (d)  Dividends  in full shall not be  declared or paid or set apart for
payment on the  Series A for a  dividend  period  terminating  on the  Quarterly
Dividend Payment Date unless dividends in full have been declared or paid or set
apart for payment on the  Preferred  Stock of all series (other than series with
respect to which dividends are not cumulative from a date prior to such dividend
date) for the respective dividend periods terminating on such dividend date.


Section 3.        Voting Rights.

        The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the
following voting rights:


         (a) Each share of Series A  Preferred  Stock  shall  entitle the holder
thereof  to 1000  votes  (and  each one  one-thousandth  of a share of  Series A
Preferred  Stock shall  entitle  the holder  thereof to one vote) on all matters
submitted to a vote of the  stockholders of the  Corporation.  In the event that
the  Corporation  shall at any time  declare or pay any dividend on Common Stock
payable in shares of Common  Stock or effect a  subdivision  or  combination  or
consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by  reclassification or
otherwise  than by  payment  of a  dividend  in shares of Common  Stock)  into a
greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event,
the number of votes per share to which  holders of shares of Series A  Preferred
Stock  were  entitled  immediately  prior to such  event  shall be  adjusted  by
multiplying  such number by a fraction,  the numerator of which is the number of
shares of  Common  Stock  outstanding  immediately  after  such  event,  and the
denominator  of  which is the  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  that  were
outstanding immediately prior to such event.


         (b)  Except  as   otherwise   provided  in  the  Amended  and  Restated
Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, Bylaws or herein or by law, the
holders  of shares  of Series A  Preferred  Stock and the  holders  of shares of
Common Stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote
of stockholders of the Corporation.


         (c) In  addition,  the  holders of shares of Series A  Preferred  Stock
shall have the following special voting rights:
<PAGE>
          (i) In the  event  that at any time or from time to time  while any
     shares  Series A Preferred  Stock are  outstanding,  dividends  on Series A
     Preferred Stock, whenever accrued and whether or not consecutive, shall not
     have been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment thereof set
     aside, in an amount equivalent to six quarterly  dividends on all shares of
     Series A  Preferred  Stock at the time  outstanding,  then and in each such
     event,  the  holders of shares of Series A  Preferred  Stock and each other
     series of preferred  stock now or  hereafter  issued that shall be accorded
     such class voting  right by the Board of Directors  and that shall have the
     right to elect at least one  director  (or,  in the  event  any such  other
     series  is  entitled  to a  greater  number of  directors,  such  number of
     directors,  which  shall  be  cumulative  with and not in  addition  to the
     director provided for herein,  such director or directors being hereinafter
     referred to as "Special  Directors") as the result of a prior or subsequent
     default in payment of  dividends  on such  series  (each such other  series
     being  hereinafter  called  "Other  Series  of  Preferred  Stock"),  voting
     separately as a class without regard to series,  shall be entitled to elect
     the  Special  Director at the next annual  meeting of  stockholders  of the
     Corporation,  in addition to the  directors to be elected by the holders of
     all  shares  of the  Corporation  entitled  to  vote  for the  election  of
     directors,  and the holders of all shares (including the Series A Preferred
     Stock)  otherwise  entitled to vote for directors,  voting  separately as a
     class,  shall be  entitled to elect the  remaining  members of the Board of
     Directors, provided that the Series A Preferred Stock and each Other Series
     of Preferred  Stock,  voting as a class,  shall not have the right to elect
     more than one Special  Director  (in  addition  to any Special  Director to
     which  the  holders  of any  Other  Series  of  Preferred  Stock  are  then
     entitled).  Such special  voting right of the holders of shares of Series A
     Preferred  Stock may be  exercised  until all  dividends  in default on the
     Series A Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full or declared and funds
     sufficient  therefor  set aside,  and when so paid or  provided  for,  such
     special  voting right of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred  Stock
     shall cease,  but subject always to the same  provisions for the vesting of
     such special voting rights in the event of any such future dividend default
     or defaults.

           (ii) At any time after such special voting rights shall have so
     vested in the holders of shares of Series A Preferred  Stock, the President
     or the Secretary of the  Corporation  may, and upon the written  request of
     the  holders  of record of 10% or more in number of the  shares of Series A
     Preferred Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock then  outstanding
     addressed  to  the  Secretary  at the  principal  executive  office  of the
     Corporation  shall,  call a special  meeting  of the  holders  of shares of
     Preferred  Stock so  entitled  to vote,  for the  election  of the  Special
     Directors  to be elected by them as herein  provided,  to be held within 60
     days after such call and at the place and upon the notice  provided  by law
     and in the Bylaws for the holding of meetings  of  stockholders;  provided,
     however,  that the President or the Secretary shall not be required to call
     such special meeting in the case of any such request  received less than 60
     days before the date fixed for any annual meeting of  stockholders,  and if
     in such case such  special  meeting is not called or held,  the  holders of
     shares of Preferred Stock so entitled to vote shall be entitled to exercise
     the  special  voting  rights  provided  in this  paragraph  at such  annual
     meeting.  If any  such  special  meeting  required  to be  called  as above
     provided  shall not be called by the President or the  Secretary  within 30
     days after receipt of any such  request,  then the holders of record of 10%
     or more in number of the shares of Series A Preferred  Stock and each Other
     Series of Preferred Stock then  outstanding may designate in writing one of
     their number to call such meeting, and the person so designated may,
     at the  expense  of the  Corporation,  call such  Meeting to be held at the
     place and upon the notice given by such  person,  and for that sole purpose
     shall have access to the stock books of the  Corporation.  No such  special
     meeting and no  adjournment  thereof  shall be held on a date later than 60
     days  before the  annual  meeting of  stockholders.  If, at any  meeting so
<PAGE>
     called or at any annual  meeting held while the holders of shares of Series
     A  Preferred  Stock have the special  voting  rights  provided  for in this
     paragraph,  the holders of not less than 40% of the aggregate  voting power
     of Series A Preferred  Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock then
     outstanding are present in person or by proxy,  which  percentage  shall be
     sufficient to constitute a quorum for the election of additional  directors
     as  herein  provided,  the  then  authorized  number  of  directors  of the
     Corporation  shall be  increased  by the number of Special  Directors to be
     elected,  as of the time of such  special  meeting or the time of the first
     such annual  meeting held while such holders have special voting rights and
     such  quorum is  present,  and the  holders of shares of Series A Preferred
     Stock and each Other Series of Preferred Stock, voting as a class, shall be
     entitled to elect the Special Director or Directors so provided for. If the
     directors of the Corporation are then divided into classes under provisions
     of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation
     or the Bylaws, the Special Director or Directors shall belong to each class
     of directors in which a vacancy is created as a result of such  increase in
     the authorized number of directors.  If the foregoing expansion of the size
     of the Board of Directors shall not be valid under applicable law, then the
     holders of shares of Series A Preferred  Stock and of each Other  Series of
     Preferred  Stock,  voting as a class,  shall be entitled,at  the meeting of
     stockholders  at which they would  otherwise have voted, to elect a Special
     Director or Directors to fill any then  existing  vacancies on the Board of
     Directors,  and shall  additionally  be entitled,  at such meeting and each
     subsequent meeting of stockholders at which directors are elected, to elect
     all of the  directors  then  being  elected  until by such  class  vote the
     appropriate number of Special Directors has been so elected.

          (iii) Upon the  election at such meeting by the holders of shares of
     Series A Preferred Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock,  voting
     as a class,  of the Special  Director or Directors  they are entitled so to
     elect,  the  persons  so  elected,  together  with such  persons  as may be
     directors  or as may have been  elected as  directors by the holders of all
     shares (including Series A Preferred Stock) otherwise  entitled to vote for
     directors,  shall constitute the duly elected directors of the Corporation.
     Each Special Director so elected by holders of shares of Series A Preferred
     Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock,  voting as a class,  shall
     serve until the next annual  meeting or until their  respective  successors
     shall be elected and qualified, or if any such Special Director is a member
     of a class of  directors  under  provisions  dividing  the  directors  into
     classes, each such Special Director shall serve until the annual meeting at
     which the term of office of such Special  Director's  class shall expire or
     until such Special Director's successor shall be elected and shall qualify,
     and at each subsequent meeting of stockholders at which the directorship of
     any Special  Director is up for election,  said special class voting rights
     shall apply in the  reelection of such Special  Director or in the election
     of such Special Director's successor;  provided, however, that whenever the
     holders  of shares of Series A  Preferred  Stock and each  Other  Series of
     Preferred  Stock shall be  divested  of the special  rights to elect one or
     more  Special  Directors  as above  provided,  the  terms of  office of all
     persons  elected as  Special  Directors,  or elected to fill any  vacancies
     resulting  from the death,  resignation,  or  removal of Special  Directors
     shall  forthwith  terminate  (and the number of directors  shall be reduced
     accordingly).


          (iv) If, at any time after a special  meeting of  stockholders or an
     annual meeting of  stockholders  at which the holders of shares of Series A
     Preferred  Stock and each  Other  Series of  Preferred  Stock,  voting as a
     class,  have elected one or more Special  Directors as provided above,  and
     while the  holders  of shares of Series A  Preferred  Stock and each  Other
     Series of Preferred Stock shall be entitled so to elect one or more Special
     Directors, the number of Special Directors

<PAGE>
     who have been so elected (or who by reason of one or more resignations,
     deaths or removals have  succeeded any Special  Directors so elected) shall
     by reason of  resignation,  death or removal be reduced  the vacancy in the
     Special  Directors  may be  filled  by any  one or more  remaining  Special
     Director or Special  Directors.  In the event that such election  shall not
     occur within 30 days after such vacancy arises,  or in the event that there
     shall not be incumbent at least one Special Director,  the President or the
     Secretary  of the  Corporation  may,  and upon the  written  request of the
     holders  of  record  of 10% or more in  number  of the  shares  of Series A
     Preferred Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock then  outstanding
     addressed  to the  Secretary  at the  principal  office of the  Corporation
     shall,  call a  special  meeting  of the  holders  of  shares  of  Series A
     Preferred  Stock and each Other  Series of  Preferred  Stock so entitled to
     vote, for an election to fill such vacancy or vacancies,  to be held within
     60 days after such call and at the place and upon the  notice  provided  by
     law  and in the  Bylaws  for  the  holding  of  meetings  of  stockholders;
     provided,  however,  that  the  President  or the  Secretary  shall  not be
     required  to call  such  special  meeting  in the case of any such  request
     received less than 90 days before the date fixed for any annual  meeting of
     stockholders,  and if in such case such special meeting is not called,  the
     holders of shares of Preferred  Stock so entitled to vote shall be entitled
     to fill such  vacancy or  vacancies  at such  annual  meeting.  If any such
     special meeting required to be called as above provided shall not be called
     by the President or the Secretary  within 30 days after receipt of any such
     request,  then the holders of record of 10% or more in number of the shares
     of Series A Preferred  Stock and each Other Series of Preferred  Stock then
     outstanding  may  designate  in  writing  one of their  number to call such
     meeting,  and  the  person  so  designated  may,  at  the  expense  of  the
     Corporation,  call such meeting to be held at the place and upon the notice
     above  provided,  and for that purpose shall have access to the stock books
     of the  Corporation;  no such special  meeting and no  adjournment  thereof
     shall be held on a date  later than 60 days  before  the annual  meeting of
     stockholders.

         (d) Nothing  herein shall  prevent the directors or  stockholders  from
taking  any  action to  increase  the  number of  authorized  shares of Series A
Preferred  Stock,  or increasing  the number of  authorized  shares of Preferred
Stock  of the same  class  as the  Series A  Preferred  Stock or the  number  of
authorized shares of Common Stock, or changing the par value of the Common Stock
or Preferred Stock, or issuing options, warrants or rights to any class of stock
of the  Corporation  as  authorized by the Amended and Restated  Certificate  of
Incorporation of the Corporation, as it may hereafter be amended.


         (e) Except as set forth herein, holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock  shall  have no  special  voting  rights  and their  consent  shall not be
required  (except to the extent  they are  entitled  to vote as set forth in the
Amended and Restated  Certificate of  Incorporation of the Corporation or herein
or by law) for taking any corporate action.


Section 4.        Certain Restrictions.


         (a) Whenever any dividends or other distributions payable on the Series
A Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 hereof are in arrears, thereafter and
until all  accrued  and  unpaid  dividends  and  distributions,  whether  or not
declared, on shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid
in full, the Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly:

<PAGE>

                  (i)   declare  or  pay   dividends   on,  or  make  any  other
         distributions  with  respect  to,  any shares of stock  ranking  junior
         (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up)
         to the Series A Preferred Stock;


                  (ii)  declare  or  pay   dividends   on,  or  make  any  other
         distributions  with respect to, any shares of stock ranking on a parity
         (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up)
         with the Series A Preferred  Stock,  except  dividends  paid ratably on
         shares of the Series A  Preferred  Stock and all such  parity  stock on
         which  dividends  are payable or in arrears in  proportion to the total
         amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled;


                  (iii)   redeem  or   purchase   or   otherwise   acquire   for
         consideration  shares  of  any  stock  ranking  junior  (either  as  to
         dividends  or upon  liquidation,  dissolution  or winding  up) with the
         Series A Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time
         redeem,  purchase or otherwise  acquire shares of any such junior stock
         in exchange for shares of any stock of the  Corporation  ranking junior
         (either as to dividends or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up)
         to the Series A Preferred Stock; or


                  (iv)  purchase  or  otherwise  acquire for  consideration  any
         shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a
         parity with the Series A Preferred  Stock,  except in accordance with a
         purchase offer made in writing or by publication  (as determined by the
         Board of  Directors)  to all  holders of such shares upon such terms as
         the Board of Directors,  after  consideration of the respective  annual
         dividend  rates  and  other  relative  rights  and  preferences  of the
         respective  series  and  classes,  shall  determine  in good faith will
         result in fair and equitable  treatment among the respective  series or
         classes.


         (b) The Corporation  shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation
to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration,  directly or indirectly, any
shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph
(a) of this Section 4,  purchase or  otherwise  acquire such shares at such time
and in such manner.


Section 5.        Reacquired Shares.

cancellation  become authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock,  without
designation as to series, and may be reissued as part of any series of preferred
stock created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors  (including
Series A  Preferred  Stock),  subject  to the  conditions  and  restrictions  on
issuance set forth herein.

<PAGE>
         (a) the  holders  of  shares  of stock  ranking  junior  (either  as to
dividends  or upon  liquidation,  dissolution  or  winding  up) to the  Series A
Preferred  Stock  unless,  prior  thereto,  the  holders  of  shares of Series A
Preferred  Stock shall have  received  the greater of (i) $1.00 per share ($.001
per one  one-thousandth of a share),  plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid
dividends and  distributions  thereon,  whether or not declared,  to the date of
such payment,  or (ii) an aggregate  amount per share,  subject to the provision
for adjustment  hereinafter set forth,  equal to 1000 times the aggregate amount
to be  distributed  per  share  to  holders  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  (the
"Adjustment Number"); or


         (b) the  holders of shares of stock  ranking on a parity  (either as to
dividends  or upon  liquidation,  dissolution  or winding  up) with the Series A
Preferred  Stock,  except  distributions  made ratably on the Series A Preferred
Stock and all other such  parity  stock in  proportion  to the total  amounts to
which the  holders  of all such  shares  are  entitled  upon  such  liquidation,
dissolution or winding up.

         In the event that the Corporation  shall at any time declare or pay any
dividend  on  Common  Stock  payable  in shares  of  Common  Stock,  or effect a
subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding  shares of Common
Stock (by  reclassification  or  otherwise)  into a greater or lesser  number of
shares of Common Stock,  then and in each such event,  the  aggregate  amount to
which  the  holder  of each  share of  Series A  Preferred  Stock  was  entitled
immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (a) of the preceding
sentence  shall be  adjusted  by  multiplying  such  amount by a  fraction,  the
numerator  of  which  is the  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock  outstanding
immediately  after such  event,  and the  denominator  of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.


Section 7.   Consolidation, Merger, etc.

         In the event that the Corporation  shall enter into any  consolidation,
merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are
exchanged for or changed into other stock or  securities,  cash and/or any other
property,  or  otherwise  changed,  then and in each such  event,  the shares of
Series A  Preferred  Stock  shall at the same  time be  similarly  exchanged  or
changed  in an  amount  per  share  (subject  to the  provision  for  adjustment
hereinafter  set  forth)  equal to 1000  times  the  aggregate  amount of stock,
securities,  cash and/or any other property  (payable in kind),  as the case may
be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or  exchanged.
In the event that the Corporation  shall at any time declare or pay any dividend
on Common Stock  payable in shares of Common Stock,  or effect a subdivision  or
combination  or  consolidation  of the  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock (by
reclassification  or  otherwise)  into a greater  or lesser  number of shares of
Common Stock, then and in each such event, the amount set forth in the preceding
sentence  with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction,  the numerator
of which is the number of shares of Common Stock  outstanding  immediately after
such event, and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.


Section 8.   Redemption.

         The  outstanding  shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed at
the option of the Board of  Directors,  at a cash  price per share  equal to (i)
100% of the  product of the  Adjustment  Number  (as set forth in Section  6(a))
times the  Average  Market  Value (as such term is  hereinafter  defined) of the

<PAGE>
Common Stock,  plus (ii) all dividends which on the redemption date have accrued
on the  shares  to be  redeemed  and have not been  paid or  declared  and a sum
sufficient  for the  payment  thereof  set  apart,  without  interest;  provided
however,  that if and whenever any quarterly  dividend shall have accrued on the
Series A that has not been paid or declared and a sum sufficient for the payment
thereof set apart,  the  Corporation  may not purchase or otherwise  acquire any
shares of Series A unless all shares of such stock at the time  outstanding  are
so purchased or otherwise acquired. The "Average Market Value" is the average of
the closing  sale prices of a share of the Common Stock during the 30 day period
immediately  preceding the date before the redemption date on the Composite Tape
for New York Stock Exchange  Listed  Stocks,  or, if such stock is not quoted on
the  Composite  Tape, on the New York Stock  Exchange,  or, if such stock is not
listed on such  Exchange,  on the principal  United States  securities  exchange
registered  on  which  such  stock  is  listed,  or,  if such  stock  is not bid
quotations  with  respect to a share of Common Stock during such 30day period on
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotations System
or any system  then in use, or if no such  quotations  are  available,  the fair
market  value  of a share of the  Common  Stock as  determined  by the  Board of
Directors in good faith.


Section 9.        Rank.

         Unless  otherwise  provided in the Amended and Restated  Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation or a Certificate of Designations  relating to a
subsequent series of preferred stock of the Corporation,  the Series A Preferred
Stock shall rank junior to all other series of the Corporation's preferred stock
as to the payment of dividends and the  distribution  of assets on  liquidation,
dissolution or winding up, and senior to the Common Stock of the Corporation.


Section 10.       Amendment.

         The  Amended  and  Restated   Certificate  of   Incorporation   of  the
Corporation  shall not be  amended  in any  manner  that  would  materially  and
adversely  alter or change the  powers,  preferences  or  special  rights of the
Series A Preferred Stock without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
a  majority  of the  outstanding  shares of  Series A  Preferred  Stock,  voting
together as a single series.


Section 11.       Fractional Shares.

         Series A Preferred  Stock may be issued in fractions of a share (in one
one-thousandths  (1/1000) of a share and integral  multiples thereof) that shall
entitle the holder thereof, in proportion to such holder's fractional shares,
to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and
have the benefit of all other rights of holders of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock.

                                                                     Exhibit 5.1
