1. PROPOSAL TO AUTHORIZE A CLASS
OF PREFERRED STOCK.
ICC's Board of Directors, by resolution at the meeting of the Board of
Directors held November 21, 2000, recommends that the Articles of Incorporation
of ICC be amended to authorize a class of preferred stock (the "Series Preferred
Stock"). The Series Preferred Stock would have the characteristics identified
below and as may be further defined by the Board. This proposal would maintain
the total authorized capital stock of ICC at 60,000,000 shares. Currently,
Article 4 of ICC's Articles of Incorporation provides for a total authorized
shares of 60,000,000, with 50,000,000 being designated Common Stock, 5,000,000
being designated Class A Common Stock and 5,000,000 being designated Preferred
Stock. This proposal would amend ICC's Articles of Incorporation to further
define the terms and treatment of the Preferred Stock by replacing Article 4
with an Article FOURTH containing the following language:
FOURTH:
A. Authorized Capital Stock. The aggregate number of shares of all classes of
stock which the Corporation shall be authorized to issue shall be Sixty
Million (60,000,000). Fifty Million (50,000,000) of said shares shall be of
a par value of $0.001 per share and shall be designated Common Stock, Five
Million (5,000,000) of said shares shall be of a par value of $0.001 per
share and be designated Class A Common Stock and Five Million (5,000,000)
shares of which shall be of the par value $0.001 per share and shall be
designated Series Preferred Stock.
B. Series Preferred Stock. The Series Preferred Stock may be issued from time
to time by the board of directors as herein provided in one or more series.
The designations, relative rights, preferences and limitations with respect
to the shares of each series thereof, many, to the extent permitted by law,
be similar to or may differ from those of any other series. The board of
directors of the Corporation is hereby expressly granted authority, subject
to the provisions of this Article FOURTH, to issue from time to time Series
Preferred Stock in one or more series, and to fix from time to time before
issuance thereof, by filing a certificate pursuant to the Business
Corporation Law of the State of Nevada, the number of shares in each such
series, and all designations, relative rights (including the right, to the
extent permitted by law, to convert into shares of any class or into shares
of any series), preferences and limitations of the shares in each such
series, provided, however, that the series preferred stock shall have the
characteristics identified in this Article FOURTH.

<PAGE>
C. Voting.
1. The holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each
share so held with respect to all matters submitted to the vote of the
shareholders of the Corporation.
2. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the certificate filed
pursuant to law with respect to any series of Series Preferred Stock or as
otherwise provided by law, the Series Preferred Stock shall not have any
right to vote on any matter submitted to the shareholders of ICC,
including, without limitation, the election of directors. In all instances
in which voting rights are granted to Series Preferred Stock or any series
thereof, such Series Preferred Stock or series shall vote as provided in
the certificate filed pursuant to law with respect to any series of Series
Preferred Stock or otherwise provided by law.
D. Dividends. The holders of Common Stock shall have the right to dividends
and distributions of the Corporation when and as declared by the board of
directors out of funds legally available therefor. Dividends on the
outstanding Series Preferred Stock of each series shall be declared and
paid or set apart for payment before any dividends shall be declared or
paid or set apart for payment on account of the Common Stock with respect
to the same dividend period. Dividends on any shares of Series Preferred
Stock shall be cumulative only if and to the extent set forth in a
certificate filed pursuant to law. After dividends on all shares of Series
Preferred Stock (including cumulative dividends if and to the extent any
such shares shall be entitled thereto) shall have been declared or paid or
set apart for payment with respect to any dividend period, then and not
otherwise as long as any share of Series Preferred Stock shall remain
outstanding, dividends may be declared and paid or set apart for payment
with respect to the same dividend period on account of the Common Stock out
of the assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefor.
The Board of Directors has proposed this change to the Articles of
Incorporation of ICC in order to enable the Corporation to raise additional
capital.
REQUIRED VOTE
Adoption of this proposal requires an affirmative vote of at least a
majority of the votes entitled to be cast by all shareholders entitled to vote
at the Special Meeting. The Board of Directors recommends a vote for this
proposal.
