The corporation's capital stock may be issued and sold from time to time for
such consideration as may be fixed by the Board of Directors, provided that the
consideration so fixed is not less than par value.

     FIFTH. The Board of Directors of this corporation shall be, and hereby is,

director's duty of loyalty to this corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which such director derived
any improper personal benefit. In the event that the Delaware General
Corporation Law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or
limiting the personal liability of directors of this corporation, then the
liability of each director of this corporation shall be eliminated or limited to
the fullest and most complete extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as so amended.

     Any repeal or modification of this article by the stockholders of this
corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of any director
of this corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

Certificate of Incorporation, and other provisions authorized by the laws of the

the manner now or hereafter prescribed by law; and all rights, preferences and

such firm is so interested shall be disclosed or shall have been known to the
Board of Directors of this corporation, or a majority thereof; and any director
of this corporation who is also a director or officer of such other corporation,
or who is so interested, may be counted in determining the existence of a quorum
at any meeting of the Board of Directors of this corporation that shall
authorize such contract or transaction, and may vote thereat to authorize such
contract or transaction, with like force and effect as if he were not such
director or officer of such other corporation or not so interested.
