                            Authorized Capital Stock

         The total  authorized  capital stock of the  Corporation is 100,000,000
shares of Common  Stock,  with a par  value of  $0.001 (1 mil).  All stock  when
issued shall be deemed fully paid and  non-assessable.  No cumulative voting, on
any matter to which Stockholders shall be entitled to vote, shall be allowed for
any purpose.

         The authorized  stock of this  corporation  may be issued at such time,
upon  such  terms  and  conditions  and for such  consideration  as the Board of
Directors  shall,  from  time to time,  determine.  Shareholders  shall not have
pre-emptive rights to acquire unissued shares of the stock of this Corporation.

Article five which presently reads as follows:

                                  ARTICLE FIVE
                                    Directors

         The initial number of stockholders of this corporation shall be one (1)
in number.  The number of Directors of this Corporation  shall be (1) in number,
provided,  that if the number of stockholders  shall be increased to a number in
excess of one, the number of Directors shall be correspondingly  increased,  but
not in excess of nine directors, pursuant to the terms of NRS 78.155. The number
of Directors of this Corporation may from time to time be increased as set forth
herein by an amendment to the Bylaws in that regard,  and without the  necessity
of amending the Article of Incorporation.

Is hereby amended to read as follows:


                                  ARTICLE FIVE
                                    Directors


         The Directors are hereby  granted the authority to do any act on behalf
of the Corporation as may be allow by law. Any action taken in good faith, shall
be deemed  appropriate  and in each instance where the Business  Corporation Act
provides  that the Director may act in certain  instances  where the Articles of
Incorporation  so authorize,  such action by the  Directors,  shall be deemed to
exist in these  Articles and the authority  granted by said Act shall be imputed
hereto without the same specifically having been enumerated herein.

         The  Board  of  Directors  may  consist  of from  one  (1) to nine  (9)
directors,  as  determined,  from time to time,  by the then  existing  Board of
Directors.

                  THE FOLLOWING NEW ARTICLES ARE HEREBY ADOPTED

                                   ARTICLE TEN
                                COMMON DIRECTORS

         As provide by Nevada Revised  Statutes  78.140,  without  repeating the
section in full here,  the same is adopted and no contract or other  transaction
between this  Corporation and any of its officers,  agents or directors shall be
deemed void or voidable solely for that reason. The balance of the provisions of
the code section cited, as it now exists, allowing such transactions,  is hereby
incorporated  in this Article as though more fully  set-forth,  and such Article
shall  be  read  and  interpreted  to  provide  the  greatest  latitude  in  its
application..

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN
                       LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         No Director,  Officer or Agent, to include counsel, shall be personally
liable to the  Corporation or its Stockholder for monetary damage for any breach
shall be presumed that in accepting the position as an Officer,  Director, Agent
or Counsel, said individual relied upon and acted in reliance upon the terms and
protections  provided  for  by  this  Article.   Notwithstanding  the  foregoing
sentences, a person specifically covered by this Article, shall be liable to the
extent  provided  by  applicable  law,  for  acts  or  omissions  which  involve
intentional misconduct,  fraud or a knowing violation of law, or for the payment
of dividends in violation of NRS 78.300.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE
           ELECTION REGARDING NRS 78.378 - 78.3793 AND 78.411 - 78.444

         This  corporation  shall NOT be governed by nor shall the provisions of
NRS 78.378  through and including  78.3793 and NRS 78.411  through and including
78.444 in any way whatsoever  affect the management,  operation or be applied to
this  Corporation.  This  Article may only be amended by a majority  vote of not
less than 90% of the then issued and outstanding  shares of the  Corporation.  A
quorum of outstanding shares for voting on an Amendment to this article shall be
bet unless 95% or more of the issued  and  outstanding  shares are  present at a
properly  called and noticed  meeting of the  Stockholders.  The  super-majority
set-forth  in this  Article  only  applies to any  attempted  amendment  to this
Article.


<PAGE>



         The number of shares of the  corporation  outstanding  and  entitled to
voted on an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation is 465,000; that the said
change(s) and amendment  have been  consented to and approved by a majority vote
of the  stockholders  holding  at  least a  majority  of  each  class  of  stock
outstanding and entitled to vote theron.
