notice of such meeting, except when the person attends for the express purpose
of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business
because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened.
Section 5. Stockholders List. The officer having charge of the stock
---------- -----------------
ledger of the Corporation shall make, at least 10 days before every meeting of
the stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at such

and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list
shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to
the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least 10 days
prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to
be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting or, if not

series) for the transaction of such item of business.

<PAGE>
Section 8. Vote Required. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote
---------- -------------
of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the
meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the
stockholders, unless (i) by express provisions of an applicable law or of the
Certificate of Incorporation a different vote is required, in which case such
express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question, or
(ii) the subject matter is the election of Directors, in which case Section 2 of
Article III hereof shall govern and control the approval of such subject matter.
Section 9. Voting Rights. Except as otherwise provided by the General
---------- -------------
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation of
the Corporation or any amendments thereto or these Bylaws, every stockholder
shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote in person or
by proxy for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.
Section 10. Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of
----------- -------
stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for him or her
by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from
its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy
shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as
long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an
irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the
interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an
interest in the Corporation generally. Any proxy is suspended when the person
executing the proxy is present at a meeting of stockholders and elects to vote,
except that when such proxy is coupled with an interest and the fact of the
interest appears on the face of the proxy, the agent named in the proxy shall
have all voting and other rights referred to in the proxy, notwithstanding the
presence of the person executing the proxy. At each meeting of the
stockholders, and before any voting commences, all proxies filed at or before
the meeting shall be submitted to and examined by the secretary or a person
designated by the secretary, and no shares may be represented or voted under a
proxy that has been found to be invalid or irregular.

annual meeting, business must be (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any
supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (ii)
brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or
(iii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder. For
business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, the
stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of
the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or
mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation, not
less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the meeting; provided, however,
-------- -------
that in the event that less than 70 days' notice or prior public announcement of
the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the
stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than the close of
business on the 10th day following the date on which such notice of the date of
the annual meeting was mailed or such public announcement was made. A

of the stockholder proposing such business, (iii) the class and number of shares
of the Corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder and (iv) any
material interest of the stockholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything
in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual
meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this section. The
presiding officer of an annual meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine
and declare to the meeting that business was not properly brought before the
meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this section; if he should so
determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly
brought before the meeting shall not be transacted. For purposes of this
section, "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported
-------------------
by Dow Jones News Service, Associated Press or a comparable national news
service. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to affect any rights of
stockholders to request inclusion of proposals in the Corporation's proxy
statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act").

certificate or certificates to be issued in place of any certificate or
certificates previously issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost,
stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person
claiming the certificate of stock to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When
authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates, the Corporation
may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof,
require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates,
or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to
indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the
Corporation on account of the loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate
or the issuance of such new certificate.
Section 3. Fixing a Record Date for Stockholder Meetings. In order that
---------- ---------------------------------------------
the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote
at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of
Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date
upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of
Directors, and which record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days
before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of
Directors, the record date for determining
-11-
<PAGE>
stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall
be the close of business on the next day preceding the day on which notice is
first given. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or
to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the
meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record
-------- -------
date for the adjourned meeting.
Section 4. Fixing a Record Date for Other Purposes. In order that the
---------- ---------------------------------------
Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any
dividend or other distribution or allotment or any rights or the stockholders
entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange
of stock, or for the purposes of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors
may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which
the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be
not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the
record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the
close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the
resolution relating thereto.
Section 5. Registered Stockholders. Prior to the surrender to the
---------- -----------------------
Corporation of the certificate or certificates for a share or shares of stock
with a request to record the transfer of such share or shares, the Corporation
may treat the registered owner as the person entitled to receive dividends, to
vote, to receive notifications and otherwise to exercise all the rights and
powers of an owner. The Corporation shall not be bound to recognize any
equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of
any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof.
Section 6. Subscriptions for Stock. Unless otherwise provided for in the
---------- -----------------------
subscription agreement, subscriptions for shares shall be paid in full at such
time, or in such installments and at such times, as shall be determined by the
Board of Directors. Any call made by the Board of Directors for payment on
subscriptions shall be uniform as to all shares of the same class or as to all
shares of the same series. In case of default in the payment of any installment
or call when such payment is due, the Corporation may proceed to collect the
amount due in the same manner as any debt due the Corporation.
ARTICLE VI
----------
INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND OTHERS
-------------------------------------------------
Section 1. Nature of Indemnity. Each person who was or is made a party or
---------- -------------------
is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he, or a person of whom
he is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer, of the
corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of another corporation or of a
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be indemnified
-12-
<PAGE>
and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent which it is empowered
to do so unless prohibited from doing so by the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the
case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted
the corporation to provide prior to such amendment) against all expense,
liability and loss (including attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection with such proceeding) and such indemnification
shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators; provided,
however, that, except as provided in Section 2 of this Article VI, the
corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in
connection with a proceeding initiated by such person only if such proceeding
was authorized by the board of directors of the corporation. The right to
indemnification conferred in this Article VI shall be a contract right and,
subject to Sections 2 and 5 of this Article VI, shall include the right to be
paid by the corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding
in advance of its final disposition. The corporation may, by action of its board
of directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the corporation
with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and
officers.
Section 2. Procedure for Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Any
---------- -------------------------------------------------------
indemnification of a director or officer of the corporation under Section 1 of
this Article VI or advance of expenses under Section 5 of this Article VI shall
be made promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days, upon the written
request of the director or officer. If a determination by the corporation that
the director or officer is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article
VI is required, and the corporation fails to respond within sixty (60) days to a
written request for indemnity, the corporation shall be deemed to have approved
the request. If the corporation denies a written request for indemnification or
advancing of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment in full pursuant to
such request is not made within thirty (30) days, the right to indemnification
or advances as granted by this Article VI shall be enforceable by the director
or officer in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such person's costs and
expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his right to
indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be
indemnified by the corporation. It shall be a defense to any such action (other
than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any
proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking,
if any, has been tendered to the corporation) that the claimant has not met the
standards of conduct which make it permissible under the General Corporation Law
of the State of Delaware for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the
amount claimed, but the burden of such defense shall be on the corporation.
Neither the failure of the corporation (including its board of directors,
independent legal counsel or it stockholders) to have made a determination prior
to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is
proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, nor
an actual determination by the corporation (including its board of directors,
independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met
such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create
a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
-13-
<PAGE>
Section 3. Article Not Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and the
---------- ---------------------
payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final
disposition conferred in this Article VI shall not be exclusive of any other
right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute,
provision of the certificate of incorporation, bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Section 4. Insurance. The corporation may purchase and maintain insurance
---------- ---------
on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer,
employee, fiduciary or agent of the corporation or was serving at the request of
the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any
liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such
capacity, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such
person against such liability under this Article VI.
Section 5. Expenses. Expenses incurred by any person described in Section
---------- --------
1 of this Article VI in defending a proceeding shall be paid by the corporation
in advance of such proceeding's final disposition unless otherwise determined by
the board of directors in the specific case upon receipt of an undertaking by or
on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately
be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation. Such expenses incurred by other employees and agents may be so
paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the board of directors deems
appropriate.
Section 6. Employees and Agents. Persons who are not covered by the
---------- --------------------
foregoing provisions of this Article VI and who are or were employees or agents
of the corporation, or who are or were serving at the request of the corporation
as employees or agents of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, may be indemnified to the extent authorized at any time or
from time to time by the board of directors.
Section 7. Contract Rights. The provisions of this Article VI shall be
---------- ---------------
deemed to be a contract right between the corporation and each director or
officer who serves in any such capacity at any time while this Article VI and
the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
or other applicable law are in effect, and any repeal or modification of this
Article VI or any such law shall not affect any rights or obligations then
existing with respect to any state of facts or proceeding then existing.
Section 8. Merger or Consolidation. For purposes of this Article VI,
---------- -----------------------
references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to the resulting
corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a
constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate
existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its
directors, officers and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or
was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this Article
VI with respect
-14-
<PAGE>
to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect
to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
ARTICLE VII

benefit the Corporation. The loan, guaranty or other assistance may be with or
without interest, and may be unsecured, or secured in such manner as the Board
