                  265 Sunrise Avenue
                  Suite 204

                           ARTICLE XI. INDEMNIFICATION

The Corporation shall indemnify its Officers, Directors, Employees and Agents in
accordance with the following:.

         (a) The  Corporation  shall indemnify any person who was or is a party,
or is threatened  to be made a party,  to any  threatened,  pending or completed
action,  suit  or  proceeding,   whether  civil,  criminal,   administrative  or
investigative  (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation),  by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer,  employee or agent of
the  Corporation,  or  is or  was  otherwise  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  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, has no reasonable cause to believe
his conduct to be unlawful.  The termination of any action,  suit or proceeding,
by judgment, order, settlement, conviction upon a plea of nolo contendere or its
equivalent, shall not of itself create a presumption that the person did not act
in good faith 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 reasonable cause to believe the action was unlawful.

         (b) The  Corporation  shall indemnify any person who was or is a party,
or is threatened  to be made a party,  to any  threatened,  pending or completed
action or suit by or in the right of the  Corporation,  to procure a judgment in
its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director,  officer, employee
or  agent  of the  Corporation,  or is 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  expenses
(including  attorneys'  fees),  actually  and  reasonably  incurred  by  him  in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit, 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,  except that no indemnification  shall be
made in respect of any claim,  issue or matter as to whether  such person  shall
have been adjudged to be liable for

negligence  or  misconduct in the  performance  of his duty to the  Corporation,
unless,  and only to the extent that, the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall  determine upon  application  that,  despite the  adjudication  of
liability,  but in view of all  circumstances of the case, such person is fairly
and reasonably  entitled to  indemnification  for such expenses which such court
deems proper.

         (c) To the extent  that a director,  officer,  employee or agent of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action,  suit or proceeding referred to in Sections (a) and (b) of this Article,
or in defense of any claim,  issue or matter  therein,  he shall be  indemnified
against expenses (including attorney's fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith.

         (d)  Any  indemnification  under  Section  (a) or (b) of  this  Article
(unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation  only as authorized
in the specific case upon a determination  that  indemnification of the officer,
director,  employee or agent is proper under the  circumstances,  because he has
met the  applicable  standard of conduct set forth in Section (a) or (b) of this
Article.  Such  determination  shall be made (i) by the Board of  Directors by a
majority  vote of a quorum  consisting of directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable or, even if
obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, or (iii) by the affirmative vote of the holders of
a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote and  represented at a meeting
called for that purpose.

         (e) Expenses (including  attorneys' fees) incurred in defending a civil
or criminal action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance
of the final  disposition of such action,  suit or proceeding,  as authorized in
Section (d) of this Article, upon receipt of an understanding by or on behalf of
the director,  officer,  employee or agent to repay such amount, unless it shall
ultimately  be  determined  that  he  is  entitled  to  be  indemnified  by  the
Corporation as authorized in this Article.

         (f) The Board of  Directors  may exercise  the  Corporation's  power to
purchase  and  maintain  insurance  on  behalf  of  any  person  who is or was a
director,  officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation,  or is 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 and  incurred by him in any such
capacity,  or arising out of his status as such,  whether or not the Corporation
would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under this Article.

         (g) The  indemnification  provided by this Article  shall not be deemed
exclusive  of any other  rights to which those  seeking  indemnification  may be
entitled under these Amended Articles of Incorporation,  the Bylaws, agreements,
vote of the shareholders or disinterested  directors,  or otherwise,  both as to
action in his  official  capacity  and as to action in  another  capacity  while
holding  such  office and shall  continue  as to a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs
and personal representatives of such a person.

           ARTICLE XII. LAW APPLICABLE TO CONTROL-SHARE VOTING RIGHTS.

         The provisions set forth in Fl. Stat. 607.0902 do not apply to control-
share acquisitions of shares of the Corporation.

IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the undersigned has hereunto set his hand and seal on this
3rd day of February, 1999.

                                     /s/ Donald F.  Mintmire
