3. Liquidation: Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, and after the holders of the

respective rights and interests, to the exclusion of the holders of the Series
Preferred Stock.

4. Preemptive Rights: No holder of Common Stock of the corporation shall
be entitled, as such, as a matter of right, to subscribe for or purchase any
part of any new or additional issue of stock of any class or series whatsoever,
any rights or options to purchase stock of any class or series whatsoever, or
any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or carrying rights or options
to purchase stock of any class or series whatsoever, whether now or hereafter
authorized, and whether issued for cash or other consideration, or by way of
dividend or other distribution.

(b) Series Preferred Stock

1. Board Authority: 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 of the Series
Preferred Stock, and particularly of the shares of each series thereof, may, 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 III, 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 Banking Law,
the number of shares in each such series of such class 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 of any class), preferences
and limitations of the shares in each such series, including, buy without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following:

(i) The number of shares to constitute such series (which
number may at any time, or from time to time, be increased or
decreased by the Board of Directors, notwithstanding that shares of
the series may be outstanding at the time of such increase or
decrease, unless the Board of Directors shall have otherwise provided
in creating such series) and the distinctive designation thereof;

(ii) The dividend rate on the shares of such series, whether
or not dividends on the shares of such series shall be cumulative, and
the date or dates, if any, from which dividends thereon shall be
cumulative;

(iii) Whether or not the share of such series shall be
redeemable, and, if redeemable, the date or dates upon or after which
they shall be redeemable, the amount or amounts per share (which shall
be, in the case of each share, not less than its preference upon
involuntary liquidation, plus an amount equal to all dividends thereon

<PAGE>

accrued and unpaid, whether or not earned or declared) payable thereon
in the case of the redemption thereof, which amount may vary at
different redemption dates or otherwise as permitted by law;

(iv) The right, if any, of holders of shares of such series to
convert the same into, or exchange the same for, Common Stock or other
stock as permitted by law, and the terms and conditions of such
conversion or exchange, as well as provisions for adjustment of the
conversion rate in such events as the Board of Directors shall
determine;

(v) The amount per share payable on the shares of such
series upon the voluntary and involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the corporation;

(vi) Whether the holders of shares of such series shall have
voting power, full or limited, in addition to the voting powers
provided by law and, in case additional voting powers are accorded, to
fix the extent thereof; and

(vii) Generally to fix the other rights and privileges and
any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such rights and
privileges of such series, provided, however, that no such rights,
privileges, qualifications, limitations or restrictions shall be in
conflict with the organization certificate of the corporation or with
the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors
providing for the issue of any series of which there are shares
outstanding.

All shares of Series Preferred Stock of the same series shall be
identical in all respects, except that shares of any one series issued at
different times may differ as to dates, if any, from which dividends thereon may
accumulate. All shares of Series Preferred Stock of all series shall be of
equal rank and shall be identical in all respects except that to the extent not
otherwise limited in this Article III any series may differ from any other
series with respect to any one or more of the designations, relative rights,
preferences and limitations described or referred to in subparagraphs (I) to
(vii) inclusive above.

2. Dividends: 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 and paid or set apart for payment on the Common
Stock with respect to the same quarterly 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 extend
any such shares shall be entitled thereto) shall have been declared and paid or
set apart for payment with respect to any quarterly dividend period, then and
not otherwise so long as any shares of Series Preferred Stock shall remain
outstanding, dividends may be declared and paid or set apart for payment with
respect to the same quarterly dividend period on the Common Stock out the assets
or funds of the corporation legally available therefor.

All Shares of Series Preferred Stock of all series shall be of equal
rank, preference and priority as to dividends irrespective of whether or not the
rates of dividends to which the same shall be entitled shall be the same and
when the stated dividends are not paid in full, the shares of all series of the
Series Preferred Stock shall share ratably in the payment thereof in accordance
with the sums which would by payable on such shares if all dividends were paid
in full, provided, however, that nay two or more series of the Series Preferred
Stock may differ from each other as to the existence and extent of the right to
cumulative dividends, as aforesaid.

3. Voting Rights: Except as otherwise specifically provided in
the certificate filed pursuant to law with respect to any series of the Series
Preferred Stock, or as otherwise provided by law, the Series Preferred Stock
shall not have any right to vote for the election of directors or

<PAGE>

for any other purpose and the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to
vote for the election of directors and for all other purposes.

4. Liquidation: In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, each series of
Series Preferred Stock shall have preference and priority over the Common Stock
for payment of the amount to which each outstanding series of Series Preferred
Stock shall be entitled in accordance with the provisions thereof and each
holder of Series Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid in full such
amount, or have a sum sufficient for the payment in full set aside, before any
payments shall be made to the holders of the Common Stock. If, upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the corporation, the assets of the corporation or
proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the shares of all series of
the Series Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential
amount aforesaid, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be
distributed among such holders ratably in accordance with the respective amounts
which would be payable if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. After
the payment to the holders of Series Preferred Stock of all such amounts to
which they are entitled, as above provided, the remaining assets and funds of
the corporation shall be divided and paid to the holders of the Common Stock.

5. Redemption: In the event that the Series Preferred Stock of any
series shall be made redeemable as provided in clause (iii) of paragraph 1 of
section (b) of this Article III, the corporation, at the option of the Board of
Directors, may redeem at any time or times, and from time to time, all or any
part of any one or more series of Series Preferred Stock outstanding by paying
for each share the then applicable redemption price fixed by the Board of
Directors as provided herein, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid
dividends to the date fixed for redemption, upon such notice and terms as may be
specifically provided in the certificate filed pursuant to law with respect to
the series.

6. Preemptive Rights: No holder of Series Preferred Stock of the
corporation shall be entitled, as such, as a matter or right, to subscribe for
or purchase any part of any new or additional issue of stock of any class or
series whatsoever, any rights or options to purchase stock of any class or
series whatsoever, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or
carrying rights or options to purchase stock of any class or series whatsoever,
whether now or hereafter authorized, and whether issued for cash or other
consideration, or by way of dividend.

(c) Provisions relating to Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred
Stock, Series A. (Liquidation value $1,000,000 per share.)

1. Designation: The distinctive designation of the series
established hereby shall be "Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock,
Series A" (hereinafter called "Series A Preferred Stock").

2. Number: The number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall
initially be 250 shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed, purchased
or otherwise acquired by the corporation shall be cancelled and shall revert to
authorized but unissued Series Preferred Stock undesignated as to series.

3. Dividends:

(a) Dividend Payments Dates. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to receive non-cumulative cash dividends when, as and if
declared by the Board of Directors of the corporation, out of funds legally
available therefor, from the date of original issuance of such shares (the
"Issue Date") and such dividends will be payable on March 28, June 28, September
28 and December 28 of each year (:Dividend Payment Date") commencing September
28, 1990, at a rate per annum as determined in paragraph 3(b) below. The period
beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the day preceding the firs Dividend
Payment Date and
<PAGE>

each successive period beginning on a Dividend Payment Date and ending on the
date preceding the next succeeding Dividend Payment Date is herein called a
"Dividend Period". If any Dividend payment Date shall be, in The City of New
York, a Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions are
authorized by law to close, then payment will be postponed to the next
succeeding business day with the same force and effect as if made on the
Dividend Payment Date, and no interest shall accrue for such Dividend Period
after such Dividend Payment Date.

(b) Dividend Rate. The dividend rare from time to time payable in
respect of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Dividend Rate") shall be determined on
the basis of the following provisions:

(i) On the Dividend Determination Date, LIBOR will be determined on
the basis of the offered rates for deposits in U.S. dollars having a maturity of
three months commencing on the second London Business Day immediately following
such Dividend Determination Date, as such rates appear on the Reuters Screen
LIBO Page as of 11:00 A.M. London time, on such Dividend Determination Date. If
at least two such offered rates appear on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page, LIBOR in
respect of such Dividend Determination Dates will be the arithmetic mean
(rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a percent, with five one-thousandths of
a percent rounded upwards) of such offered rates. If fewer than those offered
rates appear, LIBOR in respect of such Dividend Determination Date will be
determined as described in paragraph (ii) below.

(ii) On any Dividend Determination Date on which fewer than those offered
rates for the applicable maturity appear on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page as
specified in paragraph (I) above, LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the
rates at which deposits in U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months
commending on the second London Business Day immediately following such Dividend
Determination Date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 that is
representative of a single transaction in such market at such time are offered
by three major banks in the London interbank market selected by the corporation
at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such Dividend Determination Date to
prime banks in the London market. The corporation will request the principal
London office of each of such banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at
least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR in respect of such Dividend
Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded to the nearest one-
hundredth of a percent, with five one-thousandths of a percent rounded upwards)
of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR in respect
of such Dividend Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded to the
nearest one-hundredth of a percent, with five one-thousandths of a percent
rounded upwards) of the rates quoted by three major banks in New York City
selected by the corporation at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on
such Dividend Determination Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European
banks having a maturity of three months commencing on the second London Business
Day immediately following such Dividend Determination Date and in a principal
amount of not less than $1,000,000 that is representative of a single
transaction in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks
selected as aforesaid by the corporation are not quoting as aforementioned in
this sentence, then, with respect to such Dividend Period, LIBOR for the
preceding Dividend Period will be continued as LIBOR for such Dividend Period.

(ii) The Dividend Rate for any Dividend Period shall be equal to the
lower of 18% of 50 basis points above LIBOR for such Dividend Period as LIBOR is
determined by sections (I) or (ii) above.

As used above, the term "Dividend Determination Date" shall mean, with resect to
any Dividend Period, the second London Business Day prior to the commencement of
such Dividend Period; and the term "London Business Day" shall mean any day that
is not a Saturday or Sunday and that, in New York City, is not a day on which
banking institutions generally are authorized or required by law or executive
order to close and that is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars
are transacted in the London interbank market.
<PAGE>

4. Voting Rights: The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall have the voting power and rights set forth in this paragraph 4 and shall
have no other voting power or rights except as otherwise may from time to time
be required by law.

So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding,
the corporation shall not, without the affirmative vote or consent of the
holders of at least a majority of the votes of the Series Preferred Stock
entitled to vote outstanding at the time, given in person or by proxy, either in
writing or by resolution adopted at a meeting at which the holders of Series A
Preferred Stock (alone or together with the holders of one or more other series
of Series Preferred Stock at the time outstanding and entitled to vote) vote
separately as a class, alter the provisions of the Series Preferred Stock so as
to materially adversely affect its rights; provided, however, that in the event
any such materially adverse alteration affects the rights of only the Series A
Preferred Stock, then the alteration may be effected with the vote or consent of
at least a majority of the votes of the Series A Preferred Stock; provided,
further, that an increase in the amount of the authorized Series Preferred Stock
and/or the creation and/or issuance of other series of Series Preferred Stock in
accordance with the organization certificate shall not be, nor be deemed to be,
materially adverse alterations. In connection with the exercise of the voting
rights contained in the preceding sentence, holders of all series of Series
Preferred Stock which are granted such voting rights (of which the Series A
Preferred Stock is the initial series) shall vote as a class (except as
specifically provided otherwise) and each holder of Series A Preferred Stock
shall have one vote for each share of stock held and each other series shall
have such number of votes, if any, for each share of stock held as may be
granted to them.

The foregoing voting provisions will not apply if, in connection with
the matters specified, provision is made for the redemption or retirement of all
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.

5. Liquidation: Subject to the provisions of section (b) of this Article
III, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the corporation, whether
voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have
preference and priority over the Common Stock for payment out of the assets of
the corporation or proceeds thereof, whether from capital or surplus, of
$1,000,000 per share (the "liquidation value") together with the amount of all
dividends accrued and unpaid thereon, and after such payment the holders of
Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to no other payments.

6. Redemption: Subject to the provisions of section (b) of this
Article III, Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed, at the option of the
corporation in whole or part, at any time or from time to time at a redemption
price of $1,000,000 per share, in each case plus accrued and unpaid dividends to
the date of redemption.

At the option of the corporation, shares of Series A Preferred Stock
redeemed or otherwise acquired may be restored to the status of authorized but
unissued shares of Series Preferred Stock.

In the case of any redemption, the corporation shall give notice of
such redemption to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed in
the following manner: a notice specifying the shares to be redeemed and the time
and place or redemption (and, if less than the total outstanding shares are to
be redeemed, specifying the certificate numbers and number of shares to be
redeemed) shall be mailed by first class mail, addressed to the holders of
record of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective
addressees as the same shall appear upon the books of the corporation, not more
than sixty (60) days and not less than thirty (30) days previous to the date
fixed for redemption. In the event such notice is not given to any shareholder
such failure to give notice shall not affect the notice given to other
shareholders. If less than the whole amount of outstanding Series A Preferred
Stock is to be redeemed, the shares to be
<PAGE>

redeemed shall be selected by lot or pro rata in any manner determined by
resolution of the Board of Directors to b fair and proper. From and after the
date fixed in any such notice as the date of redemption (unless default shall be
made by the corporation in providing moneys at the time and place of redemption
for the payment of the redemption price) all dividends upon the Series A
Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and all rights
of the holders of said Series A Preferred Stock as stockholders in the
corporation, except the right to receive the redemption price (without interest)
upon surrender of the certificate representing the Series A Preferred Stock so
called for redemption, duly endorsed for transfer, if required, shall cease and
terminate. The corporation's obligation to provide moneys in accordance with the
preceding sentence shall be deemed fulfilled if, on or before the redemption
date, the corporation shall deposit with a bank or trust company (which may e an
affiliate of the corporation) having an office in the Borough of Manhattan, City
of New York, having a capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000 funds necessary
for such redemption, in trust with irrevocable instructions that such funds be
applied to the redemption of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock so called
for redemption. Any interest accrued on such funds shall be paid to the
corporation from time to time. Any funds so deposited and unclaimed at the end
of two (2) years from such redemption date shall be released or repaid to the
corporation, after which the holders of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock
so called for redemption shall look only to the corporation for payment of the
redemption price.

properly come before the meeting shall be held on the third Tuesday in April of
each year, if not a legal holiday, and if a legal holiday then on the next
succeeding business day, at such hour as shall be designated by the Board of
Directors. If no other hour shall be so designated such meeting shall be held at
3 P.M.

SECTION 1.02 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the shareholders, except
those regulated otherwise by statute, may be called at any time by the Board of
Directors, or by any person or committee expressly so authorized by the Board of
Directors and by no other person or persons.

SECTION 1.03 Place of Meetings. Meetings of shareholders shall be held at such
place within or without the State of New York as shall be determined from time
to time by the Board of Directors or, in the case of special meetings, by such
person or persons as may be authorized to call a meeting. The place in which
each meeting is to be held shall be specified in the notice of such meeting.

SECTION 1.04 Notice of Meetings. A copy of the written notice of the place,
date and hour of each meeting of shareholders shall be given personally or by
mail, not less than ten nor more than fifty days before the date of the meeting,
to each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting. Notice of a special
meeting shall indicate that it is being issued by or at the direction of the
person or persons calling the meeting and shall also state the purpose or
purposes for which the meeting is called. Notice of any meeting at which is
proposed to take action which would entitle shareholders to receive payment for
their shares pursuant to statutory provisions must include a statement of that
purpose and to that effect. If mailed, such notices of the annual and each
special meeting are given when deposited in the United States mail, postage
prepaid, directed to the shareholder at his address as it appears in the record
of shareholders unless he shall have filed with the Secretary of the corporation
a written request that notices intended for him shall be mailed to some other
address, in which case it shall be directed to him at such other address.

SECTION 1.05 Record Date. For the purpose of determining the shareholders
entitled to notice of or to vote any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment
thereof, or to express consent to or dissent from any proposal without a
meeting, or for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to receive
payment of any dividend or the allotment of any rights, or for the purpose of
any other action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a date as the
record date for any such determination of shareholders. Such date shall not be
more than fifty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more
than fifty days prior to any other action.

SECTION 1.06 Quorum. The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a
majority of the shares entitled to vote thereat shall constitute a quorum at a
meeting of shareholders for the transaction of business, except as otherwise
provided by statute, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by the By-Laws.
<PAGE>

The shareholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at any
meeting, despite the absence of a quorum, shall have power to adjourn the
meeting from time to time, to a designated time and place, without notice other
than by announcement at the meeting, and at any adjourned meeting any business
may be transacted that might have been transacted on the original date of the
meeting. However, if after the adjournment the Board of Directors fixes a new
record date for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall
be given to each shareholder of record on the new record date entitled to
notice.

SECTION 1.07 Notice of Shareholder Business at Annual Meeting. At an annual
meeting of shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have
been brought before the meeting (a) by or at the direction of the Board of
Directors or (b) by any shareholder of the corporation who complies with the
notice procedures set forth in this Section 1.07. For business to be properly
brought before an annual meeting by a shareholder, the shareholder must have
given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation. To
be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at
the principal executive offices of the corporation not less than thirty days nor
more than fifty days prior to the meeting; provided, however, that in the event
that less than forty days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date of the
meeting is given or made to shareholders, notice by the shareholder to be timely
must be received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following
the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or
such public disclosure was made. A shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall
set forth as to each matter the shareholder proposes to bring before the annual
meeting (a) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the
annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual
meeting, (b) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation's books, of
the shareholder proposing such business, (c) the class and number of shares of
the corporation which are beneficially owned by the shareholder and (d) any
material interest of the shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything
in these By-Laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at an annual
meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 1.07
and Section 2.03. The Chairman 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 1.07 and Section 2.03, and 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.

ARTICLE II

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

SECTION 2.01 Number and Qualifications. The business of the corporation shall
be managed by its Board of Directors. The number of directors constituting the
entire Board of Directors shall be not less than seven nor more than fifteen, as
shall be fixed from time to time by vote of a majority of the entire Board of
Directors. Each director shall be at least 21 years of age. Directors need not
be shareholders. No Officer-Director who shall have attained age 65, or earlier
relinquishes his responsibilities and title, shall be eligible to serve as a

be elected by a plurality of the votes to hold office until the next annual

of holders of any class or series of stock having a preference over the Common
Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation, nominations for the election of
directors may be made by the Board of Directors or to any committee appointed by
the Board of Directors or by any shareholder entitled to vote in the election of
directors generally. However, any shareholder entitled to vote in the election
of directors generally may nominate one or more persons for election as
directors at a meeting only if written notice of such shareholder's intent to
make such nomination or nominations has been given, either by personal delivery
or by United States
<PAGE>

mail, postage prepaid, to the Secretary of the corporation not later than (i)
with respect to an election to be held at an annual meeting of shareholders
ninety days in advance of such meeting, and (ii) with respect to an election to
be held at a special meeting of shareholders for the election of directors, the

meeting is first given to shareholders. Each such notice shall set forth: (a)
the name and address of the shareholder who intends to make the nomination and
of the person or persons to be nominated; (b) a representation that the
shareholder is a holder of record of stock of the corporation entitled to vote
at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to

arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and each nominee and any
other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the
nomination or nominations are to be made by the shareholder; (d) such other
information regarding each nominee proposed by such shareholder as would be
required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission, had the nominee been nominated, or
intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors; and (e) the consent of each
nominee to serve as a director of the corporation if so elected. At the request
of the Board of Directors, any person nominated by the Board of Directors for
election as a director shall furnish to the Secretary of the corporation that
information required to be set forth in a shareholder's notice of nomination
which pertains to the nominee. No person shall be eligible for election as a
director of the corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures
set forth in the By-Laws. The Chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts
warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in
accordance with the procedures prescribed by these By-Laws, and if he should so
determine, he shall so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall
be disregarded.

SECTION 2.04 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors may
be held without notice at such places and times as may be fixed from time to
time by resolution of the Board and a regular meeting for the purpose of
organization and transaction of other business shall be held each year after the
adjournment of the annual meeting of shareholders.

Officer, the President, the Senior Vice Chairman or any Vice Chairman may, and
at the request of three directors shall, call a special meeting of the Board of
Directors, two days' notice of which shall be given in person or by mail,
telegraph, radio, telephone or cable. Notice of a special meeting need not be

after the meeting, or who attends the meeting without protesting, prior thereto
or at its commencement, the lack of notice to him.

SECTION 2.06 Place of Meeting. The directors may hold their meetings, have one
or more offices, and keep the books of the corporation (except as may be

presence of one-third of the entire Board, but not less than two directors,
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Any one or more
members of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may participate in
a meeting of the Board of Directors or a committee thereof by means of a
conference telephone or similar communications equipment which allows all
persons participating in the meeting to hear each other at the same time.
Participation by such means shall constitute presence in person at such a
meeting. The vote of a majority of the directors present at the time of the
vote, if a quorum is present at such time, shall be the act of the Board of
Directors, except as may be otherwise provided by statute or the By-Laws.

SECTION 2.08 Vacancies. Newly created directorships resulting from increase in
the number of directors and vacancies in the Board of Directors, whether caused
by resignation, death, removal or otherwise, may be filled by vote of a majority
of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum exists.

Directors.

SECTION 5.01 The corporation shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section
721 of the New York Business Corporation Law, indemnify any person who is or was
made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action or proceeding, whether
civil or criminal, whether involving any actual or alleged breach of duty,
neglect or error, any accountability, or any actual or alleged misstatement,
misleading statement or other act or omission and whether brought or threatened
in any court or administrative or legislative body or agency, including an
action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
and an action by or in the right of any other corporation of any type or kind,
domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the corporation is
serving or served in any capacity at the request of the corporation by reason of
the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a director or officer of
the corporation, or is serving or served such other corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in any capacity,
against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and costs, charges and
expenses, including attorneys' fees, or any appeal therein; provided, however,
that no indemnification shall be provided to any such person if a judgment or
other final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that (i)
his acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and, in either case, were material to the cause of action so
adjudicated, or (ii) he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he was not legally entitled.
<PAGE>

SECTION 5.02 The corporation may indemnify any other person to whom the
corporation is permitted to provide indemnification or the advancement of
expenses by applicable law, whether pursuant to rights granted pursuant to, or
provided by, the New York Business Corporation Law or other rights created by
(i) a resolution of shareholders, (ii) a resolution of directors, or (iii) an
agreement providing for such indemnification, it being expressly intended that
these By-Laws authorize the creation of other rights in any such manner.

SECTION 5.03 The corporation shall, from time to time, reimburse or advance to
any person referred to in Section 5.01 the funds necessary for payment of
expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with any action or
proceeding referred to in Section 5.01, upon receipt of a written undertaking by
or on behalf of such person to repay such amount(s) if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that (i) his acts
were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and, in either case, were material to the cause of action so
adjudicated, or (ii) he personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he was not legally entitled.

SECTION 5.04 Any director or officer of the corporation serving (i) another
corporation, of which a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election
of its directors is held by the corporation, or (ii) any employee benefit plan
of the corporation or any corporation referred to in clause (i), in any capacity
shall be deemed to be doing so at the request of the corporation. In all other
cases, the provisions of this Article V will apply (i) only if the person
serving another corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise so served at the specific request of the
corporation, evidenced by a written communication signed by the Chairman of the
Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Senior Vice Chairman or
any Vice Chairman, and (ii) only if and to the extent that, after making such
efforts as the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, or the
President shall deem adequate in the circumstances, such person shall be unable
to obtain indemnification from such other enterprise or its insurer.

SECTION 5.05 Any person entitled to be indemnified or to the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses as a matter of right pursuant to this Article V may
elect to have the right to indemnification (or advancement of expenses)
interpreted on the basis of the applicable law in effect at the time of the
occurrence of the event or events giving rise to the action or proceeding, to
the extent permitted by law, or on the basis of the applicable law in effect at
the time indemnification is sought.

SECTION 5.06 The right to be indemnified or to the reimbursement or advancement
of expenses pursuant to this Article V (i) is a contract right pursuant to which
the person entitled thereto may bring suit as if the provisions hereof were set
forth in a separate written contract between the corporation and the director or
officer, (ii) is intended to be retroactive and shall be available with respect
to events occurring prior to the adoption hereof, and (iii) shall continue to
exist after the rescission or restrictive modification hereof with respect to
events occurring prior thereto.

SECTION 5.07 If a request to be indemnified or for the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses pursuant hereto is not paid in full by the corporation
within thirty days after a written claim has been received by the corporation,
the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to
recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part,
the claimant shall be entitled also to be paid the expenses of prosecuting such
claim. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of
Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a
determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of
or reimbursement or advancement of expenses to the claimant is proper in the
circumstances, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its
Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the
claimant is not entitled to indemnification or to the reimbursement or
advancement of expenses, shall be a defense to the action or create a
presumption that the claimant is not so entitled.
<PAGE>

SECTION 5.08 A person who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in
the defense of a civil or criminal action or proceeding of the character
described in Section 5.01 shall be entitled to indemnification only as provided
in Sections 5.01 and 5.03, notwithstanding any provision of the New York
Business Corporation Law to the contrary.

Secretary, and shall be sealed with the seal of the corporation or a facsimile

if the certificate is countersigned by a transfer agent or registered by a
registrar other than the corporation itself or its employees.

ARTICLE VIII
