         SIXTH: Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the
Corporation and its creditors and any class of them and/or between the
Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable
jurisdiction within the state of Delaware may, on the application in a summary
way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof or on the
application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under
Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in
dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation under
Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or
class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the
Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as said court
directs. If a majority in number representing three fourths in value of the

have power to indemnify under said Section from and against any and all of the
expenses (including, without limitation, attorney's fees and expenses),
liabilities or other matters referred to in and covered by said Section, and the
indemnification provided for therein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any by-law, agreement,
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action,
in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding the position giving rise to the entitlement to indemnification, 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, estate, executors and
administrators of any such person.

         NINTH: The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall have the power
to adopt, amend or repeal the by-laws of the Corporation.
