			 Summary Compensation Table

      The following table includes the Chief Executive Officers and  the
four  other most highly compensated executive officers in office  as  of
December  31,  1999  at  Entergy Corporation,  Entergy  Arkansas,  Inc.,
Entergy Gulf States, Inc., Entergy Louisiana, Inc., Entergy Mississippi,
Inc.,  Entergy New Orleans, Inc., System Energy Resources, Inc., Entergy
Services,  Inc., System Fuels, Inc., Entergy Operations,  Inc.,  Entergy
Enterprises, Inc., Entergy Global Power Operations Corporation,  Entergy

Inc., Entergy Technology Holding Company, Entergy International Ltd LLC,
Entergy  Power International Holdings Corporation, Varibus  Corporation,
Prudential Oil and Gas, Inc., Southern Gulf Railway Company, and  GSG&T,
Inc. (collectively, the "Named Executive Officers").  This determination
was  based  on  total annual base salary and bonuses  from  all  Entergy
sources  earned  during  the year 1999.  See Item  6.  Part  I,  "Names,
Addresses,  and Positions Held", above for information on the  principal
positions of the Named Executive Officers in the table below.

      As  shown  in  Item 6. Part I, most Named Executive  Officers  are
employed   by   several  Entergy  companies.   Because   it   would   be
impracticable  to  allocate such officers' salaries  among  the  various
companies, the table below includes aggregate compensation paid  by  all
Entergy companies.

     Plan.  At December 31, 1999, the number and value of the aggregate
     restricted stock holdings were as follows:  Mr. Bemis 5,223 shares,
     $134,492; Mr. Clary 12,945 shares, $333,334; Mr. Cordaro 1,626 shares,
     $41,870; Mr. Cushman 4,500 shares, $115,875; Mr. Domino 3,002 shares,
     $77,302; Mr. Folks 6,750 shares, $173,813; Mr. Gallaher 7,497 shares,

     $695,405; Mr. Jackson 27,000 shares, $695,250; Mr. Keith 1,992 shares,
     $51,294; Mr. Kenney 4,500 shares, $115,875; Mr. Keuter 1,754 shares,
     $45,166; Mr. Langston 3,380 shares, $87,035; Mr. Leonard 75,080 shares,
     $1,933,310; Mr. Ludwig 6,750 shares, $173,813; Mr. Maulden 8,993
     shares, $231,570; Mr. McGaha 4,500 shares, $115,875; Mr. Meiners
     2,243 shares, $57,757; Mr. Packer 4,500 shares, $115,875; Mr. Rider
     2,243 shares, $57,757; Mr. Roberts 56,554 shares, $1,456,266; Ms. Shanks
     2,382 shares, $61,337; Mr. Stoner 6,560 shares, $168,920; Mr. Thompson
     14,834 shares, $381,976; Mr. Wilder 39,111 shares, $1,007,108;
     Mr. Wright 4,500 shares, $115,875; and Mr. Yelverton 11,505 shares,
     $296,254.  Accumulated dividends are paid on restricted stock when
     vested.  No restrictions were lifted in 1999, 1998, and 1997 under the
     Equity Ownership Plan.  The value of restricted stock holdings as of
     December 31, 1999 is determined  by multiplying the total number of
     shares held by the closing market price of Entergy Corporation
     common stock on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions
     on December 31, 1999 ($25.75 per share).

(c)  In addition to the restricted shares granted under the Equity Ownership
     Plan, in 1999 Mr. Roberts was granted 40,000 additional restricted shares.
     Restricted shares awarded will vest incrementally over a five-year period,
     beginning in 2000, based on continued service with Entergy Corporation.
     Restrictions will be lifted annually.  The value Mr. Roberts may realize
     is dependent upon both the number of shares that vest and the future
     market price of Entergy Corporation common stock.  Accumulated
     dividends will be paid on Mr. Roberts' shares when vested.

(d)  In  addition  to  the restricted shares granted  under  the  Equity
     Ownership Plan, in 1998 Mr. Leonard, Mr. Malik, Mr. Wilder and  Mr.
     Thompson  were granted 30,000, 20,000, 26,000 and 2,000  additional
     restricted  shares, respectively.  Restricted shares  awarded  will
     vest  incrementally  over a three-year period, beginning  in  1999,
     based  on continued service with Entergy Corporation.  Restrictions
     will  be  lifted  annually.   Mr. Malik  vested  in  6,666  of  the
     restricted shares in 1999 and forfeited the remainder.   The  value
     Mr.  Leonard, Mr. Wilder and Mr. Thompson may realize is  dependent
     upon  both  the  number of shares that vest and the  future  market
     price  of  Entergy Corporation common stock.  Accumulated dividends
     will  not be paid on Mr. Leonard's 30,000 shares and 21,000  shares
     of   Mr.   Wilder's  restricted  stock  when  vested.   Accumulated
     dividends  will be paid on 5,000 shares of Mr. Wilder's  restricted
     stock and all of Mr. Thompson's restricted stock when vested.

      All  of  the Named Executive Officers participate in a  Retirement
Income  Plan,  a  defined  benefit plan, that  provides  a  benefit  for
employees at retirement from Entergy based upon (1) generally all  years
of  service  beginning at age 21 through termination, with a  forty-year
maximum,  multiplied by (2) 1.5%, multiplied by (3)  the  final  average
compensation.   Final  average compensation  is  based  on  the  highest
consecutive 60 months of covered compensation in the last 120 months  of
service.  The normal form of benefit for a single employee is a lifetime
annuity  and for a married employee is a 50% joint and survivor annuity.
Other  actuarially  equivalent options are available  to  each  retiree.
Retirement benefits are not subject to any deduction for Social Security
or  other  offset  amounts. The amount of the Named Executive  Officers'
annual  compensation  covered by the plan as of December  31,  1999,  is
represented  by  the  salary  column in the Summary  Compensation  Table
above.

      The  credited  years  of  service under  the  Entergy  Corporation
Retirement Income Plan, as of December 31, 1999, for the Named Executive
Officers is as follows: Mr. Brown 4, Mr. Castleberry 15, Mr. Davidson 2,
Mr. Domino 29, Mr. Folks 5, Mr. Fuqua 1, Mr. Gallaher 30, Mr. Hamric  6,
Mr.  Henderson  1,  Mr.  Langston  28,  Mr.  Leonard  1,  Mr.  Malik  2,
Mr.  Maulden 34, Mr. McGaha 21, Mr. McNeal 17, Mr. Packer 17, Ms. Shanks
16,  Mr.  Stoner 1, Mr. Wright 30, and Mr. Yelverton 20.   The  credited
years  of  service under the respective Retirement Income  Plan,  as  of
December  31,  1999, for the following Named Executive  Officers,  as  a
result  of  entering  into  supplemental retirement  agreements,  is  as
follows:   Mr. Bemis 27, Mr. Clary   26, Mr. Cushman 21, Mr.  Hintz  28,
Mr.  Jackson 20, Mr. Kenney 21, Mr. Keuter 14, Mr. Ludwig 7, Mr.  Nugent
16,  Mr.  Roberts 14, Mr. Thompson 23, and Mr. Wilder 16.  Mr.  Cordaro,
Mr. Keith, Mr. Meiners and Mr. Rider retired during 1999 with 40, 33, 39
and 26 credited years of service, respectively.

      The maximum benefit under the Retirement Income Plan is limited by
Sections  401 and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as  amended;
however,  certain companies have elected to participate in  the  Pension
Equalization  Plan sponsored by Entergy Corporation.  Under  this  plan,
certain  executives,  including  the  Named  Executive  Officers,  would
receive  an additional amount equal to the benefit that would have  been
payable  under the Retirement Income Plan, except for the  Sections  401
and 415 limitations discussed above.

      In addition to the Retirement Income Plan discussed above, certain
companies  participate in the Supplemental Retirement  Plan  of  Entergy
Corporation  and  Subsidiaries (SRP) and  the  Post-Retirement  Plan  of
Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries (PRP). Participation is limited  to
one  of  these  two  plans and is at the invitation of  a  participating
employer.   The  participant may receive from  the  appropriate  Entergy
company a monthly benefit payment not in excess of .025 (under the  SRP)
or  .0333  (under the PRP) times the participant's average  base  annual
salary  (as  defined  in  the  plans)  for  a  maximum  of  120  months.
Mr.  Hintz, Mr. McGaha, Mr. Packer, and Mr. Yelverton entered  into  SRP
participation  contracts.   Mr. Bemis, Mr. Cordaro,  Mr.  Gallaher,  Mr.
Jackson,  Mr.  Keith,  Mr. Maulden, Mr. Meiners,  and  Mr.  Wright  have
entered  into  PRP participation contracts.  Current estimates  indicate
that the annual payments to each Named Executive Officer under the above
plans  would be less than the payments to that officer under the  System
Executive Retirement Plan discussed below.

(1)Covered  pay  includes  the average of the  highest  three  years  of
   annual  base pay and incentive awards earned by the executive  during
   the  ten years immediately preceding his retirement.  Benefits  shown
   are based on a target replacement ratio of 50% based on the years  of
   service  and  covered compensation shown.  The benefits for  10,  15,
   and  20  or  more  years of service at the 45%  and  55%  replacement
   levels  would decrease (in the case of 45%) or increase (in the  case
   of  55%)  by  the  following  percentages:   3.0%,  4.5%,  and  5.0%,
   respectively.

       In   1993,  Entergy  Corporation  adopted  the  System  Executive
Retirement Plan (SERP).  This plan was amended in 1998.  Certain of  the
companies  are  participating employers in the SERP.   The  SERP  is  an
unfunded  defined benefit plan offered at retirement to  certain  senior
executives,  which  would  currently include  all  the  Named  Executive
Officers  (except  for  Mr. Brown, Mr. Castleberry,  Mr.  Davidson,  Mr.
Folks,  Mr. Hamric, Mr. Keuter, Mr. Leonard, Mr. Malik, Mr. McNeal,  Mr.
Moore, and Mr. Nugent).  Participating executives choose, at retirement,
between  the  retirement benefits paid under provisions of the  SERP  or
those  payable  under  the SRP or PRP discussed  above.   The  plan  was
amended  in  1998  to  provide that covered pay is the  average  of  the
highest three years annual base pay and incentive awards earned  by  the
executive  during  the ten years immediately preceding  his  retirement.
Benefits  paid under the SERP are calculated by multiplying the  covered
pay times target pay replacement ratios (45%, 50%, or 55%, dependent  on
job  rating at retirement) that are attained, according to plan  design,
at  20 years of credited service.  The target ratios are increased by 1%
for  each year of service over 20 years, up to a maximum of 30 years  of
service.   In  accordance with the SERP formula, the target  ratios  are
reduced for each year of service below 20 years.  The credited years  of
service  under this plan are identical to the years of service for  most
of  the Named Executive Officers disclosed above in the section entitled
"Pension Plan Tables-Retirement Income Plan Table".  The credited  years
of  service  under  the SERP are different from the  credited  years  of
service  under  the  Retirement  Income Plan  discussed  above  for  the
following Named Executive Officers:  Mr. Cushman 6 years, Mr. Jackson 26
years,  Mr. Kenney 9 years, Mr. Ludwig 3 years, Mr. Rider 30 years,  Mr.
Roberts  1  year,  Mr. Thompson 18 years, Mr. Wilder  1  year,  and  Mr.
Yelverton  30.   Mr. Keith had 16 years of credited service  under  this
plan  when  he retired.  Mr. Maulden's retirement benefits are discussed
below.   His benefits will be calculated based on his final annual  base
pay  and  incentive  awards, with no reduction on the  surviving  spouse
annuity,  the  provisions in effect prior to the 1998 amendment  to  the
plan.

     The  amended  plan  provides  that a  single  employee  receives  a
lifetime  annuity  and a married employee receives the  reduced  benefit
with  a  50%  surviving  spouse annuity.  Other  actuarially  equivalent
options are available to each retiree.  SERP benefits are offset by  any
and  all defined benefit plan payments from Entergy.  SERP benefits  are
not subject to Social Security offsets.

      Eligibility for and receipt of benefits under any of the executive
plans  described  above  are  contingent  upon  several  factors.    The
participant  must  agree, without the specific consent  of  the  Entergy
company  for  which  such participant was last  employed,  not  to  take
employment after retirement with any entity that is in competition with,
or  similar in nature to, any Entergy company. Eligibility for  benefits
is  forfeitable for various reasons, including violation of an agreement
with  a  participating employer, certain resignations of employment,  or
certain terminations of employment without company permission.

      In addition to the Retirement Income Plan discussed above, Entergy
Gulf  States  provides, among other benefits to officers,  an  Executive
Income  Security Plan for key managerial personnel.  The  plan  provides
participants  with  certain  retirement,  disability,  termination,  and
survivors' benefits.  To the extent that such benefits are not funded by
the  employee benefit plans of Entergy Gulf States or by vested benefits
payable  by the participants' former employers, Entergy Gulf  States  is
obligated  to  make  supplemental  payments  to  participants  or  their
survivors.   The  plan provides that upon the death or disability  of  a
participant  during his employment, he or his designated survivors  will
receive  (i) during the first year following his death or disability  an
amount not to exceed his annual base salary, and (ii) thereafter  for  a
number of years until the participant attains or would have attained age
65,  but  not less than nine years, an amount equal to one-half  of  the
participant's  annual base salary.  The plan also provides  supplemental
retirement  benefits for life for participants retiring  after  reaching
age  65  equal  to  1/2 of the participant's average final  compensation
rate,  with 1/2 of such benefit upon the death of the participant  being
payable to a surviving spouse for life.

      Entergy Gulf States amended and restated the plan effective  March
1,  1991,  to  provide  such  benefits  for  life  upon  termination  of
employment of a participating officer or key managerial employee without
cause  (as  defined  in the plan) or if the participant  separates  from
employment  for good reason (as defined in the plan), with 1/2  of  such
benefits  to  be payable to a surviving spouse for life.   Further,  the
plan  was amended to provide medical benefits for a participant and  his
family  when  the  participant separates from  service.   These  medical
benefits generally continue until the participant is eligible to receive
medical  benefits  from a subsequent employer; but  in  the  case  of  a
participant  who  is  over  50  at  the  time  of  separation  and   was
participating  in  the plan on March 1, 1991, medical benefits  continue
for life.  By virtue of the 1991 amendment and restatement, benefits for
a participant cannot be modified once he becomes eligible to participate
in the plan.  Mr. Domino is a participant in this plan.

			  Compensation of Directors

      Directors  who  are Entergy officers do not receive  any  fee  for
service   as   a  director.   Each  non-employee  director  of   Entergy
Corporation  receives a fee of $1,500 for attendance at Board  meetings,
$1,000  for  attendance at committee meetings scheduled  in  conjunction
with Board meetings, and $2,000 for attendance at committee meetings not
scheduled  in conjunction with a Board meeting.  Directors also  receive
$1,000  for participation in any inspection trip or conference not  held
in  conjunction  with  a  Board  or  Committee  meeting.   In  addition,
committee   chairpersons  are  paid  an  additional   $5,000   annually.
Directors  receive only one-half the fees set forth above for  telephone
attendance  at Board or committee meetings.  All non-employee  directors
receive on a quarterly basis 150 shares of Common Stock and one-half the
value of the 150 shares in cash.  Mr. Luft is paid $200,000 annually  to
serve as Chairman of the Board.

     All  non-employee directors are credited with 800 "phantom"  shares
of Common Stock for each year of service on the Board up to a maximum of
ten  years.  The "phantom" shares are credited to a specific account for
each  director that is maintained solely for accounting purposes.  After
separation from Board service, these directors receive an amount in cash
equal to the value of their accumulated "phantom" shares.  Payments  are
made  in  at  least  five  but no more than 15  annual  payments.   Each
"phantom"  share is assigned a value on its payment date  equal  to  the
value of a share of Common Stock on that date.  Dividends are earned  on
each "phantom" share from the date of original crediting.

      The  remaining  Entergy companies currently have  no  non-employee
directors, and none of the current directors are compensated  for  their
responsibilities as directors.

       Retired  non-employee  directors  of  Entergy  Arkansas,  Entergy
Louisiana, Entergy Mississippi, and Entergy New Orleans with  a  minimum
of  five years of service on the respective Boards of Directors are paid
$200 a month for a term of years corresponding to the number of years of
active  service as directors.  Retired non-employee directors with  over
ten  years of service receive a lifetime benefit of $200 a month.  Years
of  service  as  an  advisory director are included in calculating  this
benefit.  System Energy has no retired non-employee directors.

      Retired  non-employee  directors of Entergy  Gulf  States  receive
retirement  benefits  under a plan in which  all  directors  who  served
continuously  for a period of years will receive a percentage  of  their
retainer  fee in effect at the time of their retirement for  life.   The
retirement benefit is 30 percent of the retainer fee for service of  not
less  than five nor more than nine years, 40 percent for service of  not
less  than ten nor more than fourteen years, and 50 percent for  fifteen
or  more years of service.  For those directors who retired prior to the
retirement  age,  their benefits are reduced.  The  plan  also  provides
disability retirement and optional hospital and medical coverage if  the
director  has  served at least five years prior to the disability.   The
retired  director  pays  one-third of  the  premium  for  such  optional
hospital and medical coverage and Entergy Gulf States pays the remaining
two-thirds.   Years of service as an advisory director are  included  in
calculating this benefit.

     Before Entergy Gulf States, Inc. became a subsidiary of Entergy, it
established  a  deferred compensation plan for  its  officers  and  non-
employee  directors.  A director could defer a maximum of  100%  of  his
salary, and an officer could defer up to a maximum of 50% of his salary.
Both  Dr.  Murrill, as an officer, and Mr. Steinhagen,  as  a  director,
deferred  their salaries.  The directors' right to receive this deferred
compensation  is  an  unsecured obligation  of  the  Corporation,  which
accrues  simple interest compounded annually at the rate set by  Entergy
Gulf  States, Inc. in 1985.  In addition to payments received  prior  to
1997,  on  January  1, 2000, Dr. Murrill began to receive  his  deferred
compensation plus interest in equal installments annually for 15  years.
Beginning  on  the  January 1 after Mr. Steinhagen  turns  70,  he  will
receive  his  deferred compensation plus interest in equal  installments
annually for 10 years.

     On   certain   occasions,   the   Corporation   provides   personal
transportation  services  for  the benefit  of  non-employee  directors.
During  1999,  the  value of such transportation  services  provided  by
Entergy Corporation to all directors was approximately $8,376.


   Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Agreements, Retirement
		Agreements and Change-in-Control Arrangements

      In connection with Mr. Bemis' continued relationship with Entergy,
Mr.  Bemis  entered into an agreement with the company  in  April  1998.
Under  the terms of this agreement, Mr. Bemis became a Special  Projects
Coordinator on March 6, 1999, for which Entergy will continue to pay him
the  base  salary  (excluding  any and all incentive  payments)  he  was
earning  on that date until he becomes eligible for early retirement  on
March  24, 2002.  Until this time Mr. Bemis will be eligible to continue
his  participation in all of the employee benefit plans to which  he  is
entitled, under the terms and conditions of these plans.  Upon  reaching
age  55,  on  March  24,  2002, Mr. Bemis will  retire  with  retirement
benefits, subject to the terms and conditions of these plans.

      Pursuant to a March 1994 employment agreement, Mr. Folks  received
five  additional  years of credited service in the  Entergy  Corporation
Retirement  Income  Plan  for having completed five  years  of  service.
Under  the terms of a written continuing employment agreement  dated  in
June of 1999, Mr. Folks was allowed to participate in certain management
incentive  programs  during  the term of  his  employment.   Mr.  Folks'
employment  ended  on  February  15, 2000.   Pursuant  to  his  employee
separation agreement, Mr. Folks received a separation package  equal  to
12  months  base salary plus one week's pay for every year of employment
(five years).

     In connection with Mr. Fuqua's employment, the Company entered into
an agreement with him that provided for an annual salary of $200,000 and
a  potential annual incentive payout of 60%.  Mr. Fuqua also received  a
signing  bonus of $100,000.  Mr. Fuqua's employment ended  on  July  31,
1999 and he did not receive any separation benefits.

      Mr.  Davidson received a written retention agreement from  Entergy
Enterprises,  Inc. in 1999.  Under the terms of the agreement,  he  will
receive a retention bonus of 25% of his annual base salary if he remains
a full time employee through June 30, 2000.

     When Mr. Leonard became Chief Executive Officer on January 1, 1999,
certain  elements  of  compensation set forth  in  his  1998  employment
agreement with the Corporation were increased by the Board of Directors.
Mr.  Leonard's 1999 compensation in salary, incentive bonus,  restricted
stock  and  stock  options  are as shown in the  Executive  Compensation
Table.  Pursuant to the 1998 Employment Agreement, Entergy continues  to
provide  Mr.  Leonard,  in lieu of participation  in  Entergy  Executive
Retirement  Plans,  with  a retirement benefit  comparable  to  the  one
provided  by his previous employer.  This benefit will be calculated  on
the  basis  of  60% of his highest three year average  base  salary  and
annual  incentive  payments, and will be offset by Mr. Leonard's  vested
retirement  benefit  from  his  previous  employment.   This  retirement
benefit can begin at age 55.  If Mr. Leonard should resign prior to  age
55  without  permission,  he will forfeit this replacement  benefit  and
receive  only  regular accrued pension benefits.  If  he  should  resign
prior  to age 55 with the Corporation's permission, he will receive  the
replacement  benefit, but discounted at the rate of 6.5% for  each  year
before  age  55.  This benefit would not be payable until age  62.   Mr.
Leonard's  agreement  contains  a "change  of  control"  provision  that
provides for an immediate vesting of the 60% replacement pension benefit
plus a lump sum payment of 2.99 times his average three years base pay.

      In  connection with his early retirement, Mr. Maulden entered into
an  agreement  with  Entergy.   Effective April  1,  1999,  Mr.  Maulden
continued to serve as Vice Chairman, and continued to receive  his  base
salary,  incentive  pay and all other benefits but  will  no  longer  be
responsible  for  any  organizational responsibilities.   Commencing  on
December  31,1999,  his  retirement  date,  Mr.  Maulden  will   receive
retirement  benefits as though he had continued as  an  active  employee
until  age  65  without the application of 2% per year early  retirement
discount  factor.  In addition, the Company has agreed to fund  a  named
chair to honor Mr. Maulden at the University of Arkansas at Little  Rock
for  $1,000,000.   The funding will be made in four  equal  installments
paid  directly to the University, the first paid on April 1,  1999,  and
thereafter on April 1, 2000, 2001, 2002.

      Upon  his employment on July 6, 1998, Mr. Wilder entered  into  an
employment agreement with the Corporation pursuant to which he  receives
an  annual salary of $400,000 and the potential maximum annual incentive
payout  of  90%.   Mr. Wilder is eligible for a pro-rata  share  of  the
performance award for the period 1998-2000.  The Corporation granted Mr.
Wilder  a  signing  bonus of $300,000, and 21,000 shares  of  restricted
stock,  upon  which restrictions have been or will be  lifted  on  7,000
shares  each  year  beginning on his first employment  anniversary.   On
December  4,  1998,  Mr. Wilder was granted 5,000 restricted  shares  of
Entergy  stock.   Restrictions were lifted on one-third of  these  5,000
shares  on  December  4, 1999 and will be lifted on one-third  of  these
shares  on  the second and third anniversary dates of this  grant.   Mr.
Wilder  was  offered  participation in the System  Executive  Retirement
Plan.   Mr.  Wilder  was  credited with 15 years of  service  under  the
Retirement  Income  Plan  as a result of entering  into  a  supplemental
retirement  agreement.   If Entergy terminates Mr.  Wilder's  employment
within  two years other than for just cause, he will receive his  annual
base  salary and continuation of his health benefits for two  years  and
all  of  his remaining earned but unvested stock options and performance
shares  would immediately vest.  Upon a change of control, if Mr. Wilder
resigns   for   "good  reason"  his  executive  pension  benefits   will
immediately  vest and he will receive a lump sum payment of  2.99  times
his average three years base pay.

     In connection with Mr. Hintz's employment, the Company entered into
an  agreement with him effective July 29, 1999.  The agreement  provides
for an annual base salary of $550,000 and 200,000 stock options with  an
exercise price of $30.44.  On February 1, 2000 40,000 options vested and
an additional 40,000 options will vest every succeeding February 1 until
and  including  February 1, 2004.  The exercise period for  these  stock
options  expires July 29, 2009.  In addition, Entergy agreed to  provide
Supplemental  System Executive Retirement Plan benefits,  by  which  Mr.
Hintz  will  receive  retirement benefits,  survivor  benefits  or  pre-
retirement death benefits that would have been due to him from both  the
Entergy  System  Executive  Retirement Plan ("SERP")  and  from  a  1997
agreement  between  Mr.  Hintz and Entergy Operations,  Inc.,  with  the
benefits  calculated as if the terms of the SERP in  effect  immediately
prior  to  March  25, 1998 were still in effect.  Mr. Hintz's  agreement
contains a "change of control" provision that provides a payment of 2.99
times  the sum of his final base salary plus his target bonus under  the
Executive  Annual Incentive Plan and immediate vesting  of  the  200,000
stock options and Supplemental SERP benefits.

      As  a result of the Entergy Corporation/Entergy Gulf States,  Inc.
merger,  Entergy  Gulf  States is obligated to pay  benefits  under  the
Executive Income Security Plan to those persons who were participants at
the  time of the Merger and who later terminated their employment  under
circumstances described in the plan.  For additional description of  the
benefits under the Executive Income Security Plan, see the "Pension Plan
Tables-System Executive Retirement Plan Table" section noted above.

million)  under the project financing are supported by a  letter
of  credit  issued  through a credit facility of  Entergy  Power
Development Corporation. As noted below, Entergy Corporation has
issued  a  $170  million guaranty of Entergy  Power  Development
Corporation's  credit facility.  Entergy's aggregate  investment

owned  subsidiary  of  Entergy  Power  Development  Corporation,

of  Saltend  Cogeneration Company Limited.  Saltend Cogeneration
Company Limited is developing a 1200-megawatt power plant in the
United  Kingdom.  Non-recourse project financing for the project
has  been obtained and construction of the power plant commenced
in December 1997. Saltend Cogeneration Company Limited is a FUCO
under the Energy Act.  Entergy's equity contribution obligations
(BPS 48 million) under the project financing are supported by  a
letter  of  credit issued through a credit facility  of  Entergy
Power   Development   Corporation.  As  noted   below,   Entergy
Corporation has issued a $170 million guaranty of Entergy  Power
Development Corporation's credit facility.  Entergy's  aggregate
investment  in  Saltend  Cogeneration  Company  Limited   totals
approximately $78 million.

     Entergy  Corporation owns 100% of the  outstanding  capital
stock of Entergy Power Generation Corporation ("EPGC"), which is
an  EWG  formed  under  the  Entergy Act  to  develop  and  hold
Entergy's interests in certain domestic EWG projects including a
proposed  1,000 MW gas-fired power project in Fairfield,  Texas.
Entergy's   aggregate  investment  in  EPGC   is   approximately
($616,000).

the  amount of $170 million to its wholly-owned FUCO subsidiary,
Entergy  Power Development Corporation, in respect of  a  credit

<PAGE>
		       THE ARKLAHOMA CORPORATION
		   NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
		      NOVEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998


1.   OPERATIONS:

The  Arklahoma  Corporation's (the "Company") utility  plant  consists
principally of transmission facilities which are being leased  to  its
three  stockholder companies from year to year.  Pursuant to the terms
of  the  lease agreement, the lessees have agreed to pay all operating
costs,  including maintenance, repairs, insurance and  taxes  assessed
upon the properties.  Such amounts totaled approximately $689,000  and
$730,000 in fiscal years 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Under  the  terms of the current lease agreement, annual rentals  have
been  discontinued  but can be reinstated upon the  agreement  of  the
Company and the lessees.


2.   CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

For  purposes of these financial statements, the Company considers all
highly  liquid  debt instruments purchased with a  maturity  of  three
months  or less to be cash equivalents.  These investments are carried
at cost, which approximates market.

3.   UTILITY PLANT:

Through  fiscal year 1980, depreciation was provided using a straight-
line  rate  based on the electric plant's estimated composite  service
life  of  33  years  with a salvage value of 10%.  The  utility  plant
became  fully depreciated for financial reporting purposes  in  fiscal
year 1980, and no depreciation was provided in fiscal years 1981, 1982
or 1983.  In 1984, the Company acquired additional property, which was
depreciated  over  the remaining term of the lease.   For  income  tax
reporting  purposes, depreciation was calculated using a straight-line
rate  with  no  estimated salvage value and an estimated  useful  life
extended to December 1988.  All property was fully depreciated  as  of
December 31, 1988.

4.   INCOME TAXES:

Income  taxes  are  accounted  for in  accordance  with  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS")  No.  109,  "Accounting  for
Income  Taxes."   This  statement requires  the  liability  method  of
accounting for income taxes.  Under the liability method, the deferred
tax liability, or asset, is determined based on the difference between
the  tax  reporting  and  financial  reporting  bases  of  assets  and
liabilities.   The effect on deferred taxes of a change in  tax  rates
will  be  recognized in income in the period of the enactment  of  the
rate change.

Deferred income taxes resulted from temporary differences in financial
versus  tax bases of fixed assets.  The net tax liability is reflected
as a deferred income tax liability in the accompanying balance sheets.

The  Company  has  an Oklahoma state net operating loss  carryforwards
available  to reduce future Oklahoma state income taxes payable.   The
carryforwards  as of November 30, 1999, is $16,833 for  book  purposes
and $22,263 for tax return purposes, and begins to expire in 2002.

     The principal office of the Corporation in the State  of
Delaware  shall be located at 1209 Orange Street in the  City
of Wilmington, County of New Castle. The Corporation may also
have offices at such other places both within and without the
State of Delaware as the Board of Directors may from time  to
time determine or as the business of the Corporation may from
time to time require.

                         ARTICLE II.

                  MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

     Section  1.  Place  of  Meetings. All  meetings  of  the
stockholders for the election of directors shall be  held  at
the  office  of the Corporation in the City of  New  Orleans,
Parish of Orleans, State of Louisiana or at such other  place
within  or without such City as may be fixed by the Board  of
Directors.  A  change  in the time or  place  at  which  such
meetings  are to be held shall not be made within sixty  (60)
days next before the day on which an election of directors is
to be held, and a notice of any such change shall be given to
each  stockholder  twenty (20) days before  the  election  is
held.  Meetings of stockholders for any other purpose may  be
held  at such time and place, within or without the State  of
Delaware, as shall be stated in the notice of the meeting  or
in a duly executed waiver of notice thereof.

     Section  2.  Annual  Meetings. Annual  meetings  of  the
stockholders, commencing with the year 1964, shall be held at
a  time  fixed by the Board of Directors, on the third Friday
in  May if not a legal holiday, and, if a legal holiday, then
on  the  next  business day which is not a legal holiday.  At
each such meeting the stockholders shall elect by a plurality
vote  by ballot a Board of Directors, and transact such other
business as may come before the meeting.

     Written notice of each annual meeting shall be given  to
each  stockholder entitled to vote thereat at least ten  (10)
days before the date of such meeting.

     The  officer who has charge of the stock ledger  of  the
Corporation  shall prepare and make, at least ten  (10)  days
before  every election of directors, a complete list  of  the
stockholders entitled to vote at said election,  arranged  in
alphabetical   order,  and  showing  the  address   of   each
stockholder and the number of shares registered in  the  name
of   each  stockholder.  Such  list  shall  be  open  to  the
examination  of  any  stockholder  during  ordinary  business
hours,  for a period of at least ten (10) days prior  to  the
election, either at a place within the city, town or  village
where  the  election is to be held and which place  shall  be
specified  in  the  notice of the  meeting,  or,  if  not  so
specified, at the place where said meeting is to be held, and
the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place  of
election  during the whole time thereof, and subject  to  the
inspection of any stockholder who may be present.

     Section  3.  Special Meetings. Special meetings  of  the
stockholders,  for any purpose or purposes, unless  otherwise
prescribed by law or by the Certificate of Incorporation, may
be called by the Board of Directors or by the Chairman of the
Board,   the   President  or  any  Vice  President   of   the
Corporation, and shall be called by the Chairman of the Board
or  the  President or any Vice President or the Secretary  at
the  request  in  writing  of a  majority  of  the  Board  of
Directors,  or  at  the  request in writing  of  stockholders
owning  a  majority  in amount of the  entire  stock  of  the
Corporation  issued, outstanding and entitled to  vote.  Such
request  shall state the purpose or purposes of the  proposed
meeting.

     Written  notice of any special meeting of  stockholders,
stating  the time, place and general purposes thereof,  shall
be  given  to  each stockholder entitled to vote thereat,  at
least five (5) days before the date fixed for such meeting.

     Section  4.  Quorum. The holders of a  majority  of  the
stock of the Corporation issued, outstanding and entitled  to
vote,  present  in  person  or represented  by  proxy,  shall
constitute  a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders  for
the  transaction of business except as otherwise provided  by
law or by the Certificate of Incorporation. If, however, such
quorum shall not be present or represented at any meeting  of
the  stockholders, the stockholders entitled to vote thereat,
present  in person or represented by proxy, shall have  power
to  adjourn  the  meeting from time to time,  without  notice
other  than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall
be present or represented. At such adjourned meeting at which
a quorum shall be present or represented, any business may be
transacted  which might have been transacted at the  original
meeting.

     When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the
holders  of  a  majority  of the stock  having  voting  power
present  in  person or represented by proxy shall decide  any
question brought before such meeting, unless the question  is
one upon which by express provision of any applicable statute
or  of the Certificate of Incorporation, a different vote  is
required,  in which case such express provision shall  govern
and control the decision of such question.

     Section  5.  Voting.  Each stockholder  shall  at  every
meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote in person
or  by  proxy  for each share of the stock of the Corporation
having  voting power held by such stockholder, but  no  proxy
shall be voted on after three (3) years from its date, unless
the  proxy  provides for a longer period.  Except  where  the
transfer books of the Corporation have been closed or a  date
has  been fixed as a record date for the determination of its
stockholders  entitled to vote, no share of  stock  shall  be
voted  on  at  any  election  for directors  which  has  been
transferred  on  the books of the Corporation  within  twenty
(20) days next preceding such election of directors.

     Whenever  the vote of stockholders at a meeting  thereof
is  required or permitted to be taken in connection with  any
corporate action by any provisions of the applicable statutes
or  of  the  Certificate of Incorporation or  otherwise,  the
meeting  and vote of stockholders may be dispensed  with,  if
all  the  stockholders who would have been entitled  to  vote
upon  the action if such meeting were held, shall consent  in
writing to such corporate action being taken.

     Section  6.  Order of Business. At all meetings  of  the
stockholders  the order of business shall be as follows:  (a)
call  to order; (b) appointment of a Secretary, if necessary;
(c)  presentation of proof of the due calling of the meeting;
(d)    presentation   and   examination   of   proxies,   and
determination of the number of shares present in person or by
proxy and entitled to vote; (e) reading and settlement of the
minutes of the previous meeting; (f) reports of officers  and
committees,  if  any; (g) the election of  directors  if  the
meeting  is  an annual meeting or a meeting called  for  that
purpose; (h) unfinished business; (i) new business;  and  (j)
adjournment.

                        ARTICLE III.

                          DIRECTORS

     Section 1. General Powers. All the property and business
of   the  Corporation  shall  be  managed  by  its  Board  of
Directors,  which  may  exercise  all  such  powers  of   the
Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not
by  law  or  by the Certificate of Incorporation directed  or
required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

     Section  2. Number of Directors. The number of directors
which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall  be
not  more  than  ten (10) nor less than three (3),  with  the
exact   number  at  any  given  time  to  be  fixed  by   the
stockholders of the Corporation or by the Board of  Directors
at  any  regular or special meeting without the necessity  of
prior  notice  that  the  matter  of  fixing  the  number  of
directors  shall  be  a  matter  for  consideration  at  such
meeting.  The  directors  shall be  elected  at  each  annual
meeting of the stockholders, except as provided in Section  3
of  this  Article III, and each director elected  shall  hold
office  for  one year and until his successor is elected  and
qualified,  unless sooner displaced. Directors  need  not  be
stockholders.

     Section   3.  Vacancies.  Vacancies  and  newly  created
directorships  resulting from any increase in the  authorized
number  of  directors  may be filled by  a  majority  of  the
directors then in office, though less than a quorum, and  the
directors  so chosen shall hold office until the next  annual
election   and  until  their  successors  are   elected   and
qualified, unless sooner displaced.

     Section 4. Resignation. Any director may resign  at  any
time by giving written notice to the Board of Directors,  the
Chairman  of  the Board or the President of the  Corporation.

immediately following the annual meeting of the stockholders,
or at such other time and place as shall be fixed by the vote
of stockholders at said annual meeting, and no notice of such
meeting shall be necessary to the newly elected directors  in
order  legally to constitute the meeting, provided  a  quorum
shall be present. In the event that such first meeting of the
newly elected Board of Directors is not held at the time  and
place authorized by the foregoing provision, the meeting  may
be  held  at such time and place as shall be specified  in  a
notice given as hereinafter provided for special meetings  of

by  the Chairman of the Board or the President or by any Vice
President  or  by  any two directors of the  Corporation,  on
three (3) days' notice to each director, either personally or
by  mail or by telegram; special meetings shall be called  by

on the request of any two directors.

Directors  a one-third of the total number of directors  then
in office, but in no event less than two, shall constitute  a
quorum  for  the transaction of business, and the  act  of  a
majority  of  the directors present at any meeting  at  which
there  is  a quorum present shall be the act of the Board  of
Directors,  except as may be otherwise specifically  provided
by  law,  by  the Certificate of Incorporation  or  by  these
By-Laws.  If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting  of
the  Board  of  Directors, the director or directors  present
thereat  may  adjourn the meeting from time to  time  without
notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum
shall be present.

     Section   8.   Action  by  Consent.   Unless   otherwise
restricted  by the Certificate of Incorporation or  by  these
By-Laws, any action required or permitted to be taken at  any
meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof
may  be  taken without a meeting, if prior to such  action  a
written consent thereto is signed by all members of the Board
of  Directors or of such committee as the case  may  be,  and
such written consent is filed with the minutes of proceedings
of  the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may
be.

     Section  9.  Removal.  Subject  to  the  terms  of   any
outstanding employment agreement in writing and authorized by

and  constituted meeting of stockholders by  the  vote  of  a
majority of the shares represented at such meeting in  person
or  by  proxy which are entitled to vote for the election  of
directors.

Directors  shall designate one of its members as Chairman  of
the  Board.  The position of Chairman of the Board is not  an

not be an officer of the Corporation.

of  its proceedings and all action by the Executive Committee
shall  be  reported to the Board of Directors at its  meeting

                         ARTICLE VI.

                        CAPITAL STOCK

     Section 1 Stock Certificates. Every stockholder shall be
entitled  to  have  a certificate certifying  the  number  of
shares of stock owned by him in the Corporation. Certificates
of stock shall be signed by the President or a Vice President
and  the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary
or  an  Assistant Secretary, and sealed with the seal of  the
Corporation. Such seal may be facsimile, engraved or printed.
Where  such certificate is signed (1) by a transfer agent  or
an  assistant  transfer  agent, other  than  the  Corporation
itself,  or (2) by a transfer clerk acting on behalf  of  the
Corporation  and  a  registrar, the  signature  of  any  such
President,  Vice  President, Treasurer, Secretary,  Assistant
Treasurer  or Assistant Secretary may be facsimile.  In  case
any  officer  or  officers who shall have  signed,  or  whose
facsimile signature or signatures shall have been used on any
such  certificate  or certificates shall  cease  to  be  such
officer  or  officers of the Corporation, whether because  of
death,  resignation or otherwise, before such certificate  or
certificates  shall have been delivered by  the  Corporation,
such  certificate or certificates may nevertheless be adopted
by  the Corporation and be issued and delivered as though the
person or persons who signed such certificate or certificates
or  whose  facsimile signature or signatures shall have  been
used thereon had not ceased to be such officer or officers of
the Corporation.

     Section  2. Transfer of Shares. The shares of  stock  of
the  Corporation  shall be transferred on the  books  of  the
Corporation  by  the  holder thereof  in  person  or  by  his
attorney    lawfully   constituted,   upon   surrender    for
cancellation of certificates for the same number  of  shares,
with an assignment and power of transfer endorsed thereon  or
attached  thereto, duly executed, with such proof or guaranty
of  the  authenticity of the signature as the Corporation  or
its agents may reasonably require. The Board of Directors may
appoint  one  or more transfer agents and registrars  of  the
stock  of  the Corporation. The Corporation shall be entitled
to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock
as  the  holder in fact thereof and accordingly shall not  be
bound  to  recognize  any equitable  or  other  claim  to  or
interest  in  such shares or share on the part of  any  other
person, whether or not it shall have express or other  notice
thereof, save as expressly provided by law.

     Section 3. Lost Certificates. The Board of Directors may
direct  a  new  certificate or certificates to be  issued  in
place  of any certificate or certificates theretofore  issued
by  the  Corporation alleged to have been lost or  destroyed,
and  may  require the making of an affidavit of that fact  by
the  person claiming the certificate of stock to be  lost  or
destroyed.  When authorizing such issue of a new  certificate
or   certificates,  the  Board  of  Directors  may,  in   its
discretion  and  as  a condition precedent  to  the  issuance
thereof,   require  the  owner  of  such  lost  or  destroyed
certificate or certificates, or his legal representative,  to
give  the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct  as
indemnity  against  any claim that may be  made  against  the
Corporation with respect to the certificate alleged  to  have
been lost or destroyed.

     Section  4.  Record Dates. The Board  of  Directors  may
close  the  stock  transfer books of the  Corporation  for  a
period  not exceeding fifty (50) days preceding the  date  of
any  meeting of stockholders or the date for payment  of  any
dividend or the date for the allotment of rights or the  date
when  any change or conversion or exchange of stock shall  go
into effect or for a period not exceeding fifty (50) days  in
connection with obtaining the consent of stockholders for any
purpose.  In  lieu  of closing the stock  transfer  books  as
aforesaid, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a  date,
not  exceeding  fifty (50) days preceding  the  date  of  any
meeting  of  stockholders, or the date  for  payment  of  any
dividend,  or  the date for the allotment of rights,  or  the
date when any change or conversion or exchange of stock shall
go  into effect, or a date in connection with obtaining  such
consent,  as  a  record  date for the  determination  of  the
stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, any  such
meeting, and any adjournment thereof, or entitled to  receive
payment  of  any such dividend, or to any such  allotment  of
rights,  or  to exercise the rights in respect  of  any  such
change,  conversion or exchange of stock,  or  to  give  such
consent,  and  in such case such stockholders and  only  such
stockholders shall be stockholders of record on the  date  so
fixed  shall be entitled to such notice of, and to  vote  at,
such  meeting  and  any adjournment thereof,  or  to  receive
payment  of  such dividend, or to receive such  allotment  of
rights,  or to exercise such rights, or to give such  consent
as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any stock
on  the  books of the Corporation after any such record  date
fixed as aforesaid.

                        ARTICLE VIII.

                       INDEMNIFICATION

     Section  1.  Mandatory  Indemnification  -  Third  Party
Actions. 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
("Action"),   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 or employee of the Corporation,  or  is  or
was  serving at the request of the Corporation as a director,
officer  or  employee  of  another corporation,  partnership,
joint  venture,  trust or other enterprise, against  expenses
(including  attorneys' fees), judgements, fines  and  amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such Action 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, had no reasonable cause to believe  his
conduct  was  unlawful.  The termination  of  any  Action  by
judgement, order, settlement, conviction, or 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  and in a manner which 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 that his conduct was unlawful.

     Section   2.   Mandatory  Indemnification  -  Derivative
Actions. The Corporation shall indemnify any person  who  was
or  is  a  party or is threatened to be made a party  to  any
Action  by  or in the right of the Corporation to  procure  a
judgement in its favor by reason of the fact that  he  is  or
was a director, officer, or employee of the Corporation or is
or  was  serving  at  the request of  the  Corporation  as  a
director,   officer  or  employee  of  another   corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against
expenses  (including  attorneys' fees  and  amounts  paid  in
settlement  not exceeding the estimated expense of litigating
the  Action to a conclusion) actually and reasonably incurred
by  him in connection with the defense or settlement of  such
Action  if  he  acted  in  good faith  and  in  a  manner  he
reasonably  believed  to be in or not  opposed  to  the  best
interest   of   the   Corporation   and   except   that    no
indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim,  issue
or matter as to which 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  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  indemnity  for
such expenses which such court shall deem proper.

     Section 3. Mandatory Indemnification - Successful Party.
To  the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of
the  Corporation, or any person who 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, has been successful on the merits
or otherwise in the defense of any such Action, or in defense
of   any  claim,  issue  or  matter  therein,  he  shall   be
indemnified  against  expenses  (including  attorneys'  fees)
actually   and  reasonably  incurred  by  him  in  connection
therewith.

     Section  4.  Permissive Indemnification. Notwithstanding
any limitations of the indemnification provided by Sections 1
and 2, the Corporation may indemnify any person who is or was
a  party or is threatened to be made a party to any Action 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 all or part of any
expenses  (including attorneys' fees), judgements, fines  and
amounts  paid in settlement actually and reasonably  incurred
by  him  in  connection  with such Action,  if  it  shall  be
determined  in accordance with the applicable procedures  set
forth  in Section 5 that such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to such indemnification.

     Section 5. Procedure. Any indemnification under Sections
1,  2  or 4 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by  the
Corporation  only  as authorized by the  Board  of  Directors
(which may so act whether or not there is a sufficient number
of  disinterested directors to constitute a  quorum)  in  the
specific  case  upon a determination that indemnification  of
the  director,  officer, employee or agent is proper  in  the
circumstances because he has met the applicable standards  of
conduct  set  forth  in Sections 1 and 2 or  is  entitled  to
indemnification under Section 4. Such determination,  in  the
case of indemnification made pursuant to Section 1 or Section
2  shall  be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority
vote   of  a  quorum,  as  defined  in  the  Certificate   of
Incorporation or the By-Laws, consisting of directors who are
not  or  were not parties to any pending or completed  Action
giving rise to the proposed indemnification, or (2) if such a
quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, a quorum  of
disinterested  directors  so directs,  by  independent  legal
counsel (who may be, but need not be, outside counsel to  the
Corporation)   in  a  written  opinion,   or   (3)   by   the
shareholders.   Such   determination,   in   the   case    of
indemnification made pursuant to Section 4, shall be made  by
the  Board  of Directors by a majority vote of a  quorum,  as
defined  in the Certificate of Incorporation or the  By-Laws,
consisting  of directors who are not or were not  parties  to
any  pending or completed Action giving rise to the  proposed
indemnification or by the shareholders.

     Section   6.   Advance  Payments.  Expenses   (including
attorneys'  fees)  incurred  or  reasonably  expected  to  be
incurred   by  a  director,  officer  or  employee   of   the
Corporation  in  defending  against  any  claim  asserted  or
threatened against him in such capacity or arising out of his
status as such shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of
the  final determination thereof, if authorized by the  Board
of  Directors  (which may so act whether or not  there  is  a
sufficient number of disinterested directors to constitute  a
quorum)  upon  receipt  by  the Corporation  of  his  written
request therefor and his written promise to repay such amount
if  it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled
to  be  indemnified  by  the  Corporation  as  authorized  or
required in this article.

     Section 7. Provisions Not Exclusive. The indemnification
provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which any person seeking indemnification  may
be  entitled  under  any  law,  by-law,  agreement,  vote  of
shareholders  or  disinterested directors or  otherwise,  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, executors and administrators of such  a
person.

     Section  8. Miscellaneous. For purposes of this Article,
and  without  any limitation whatsoever upon  the  generality
thereof:  the term "fines" as used herein shall be deemed  to
include  (i)  penalties  imposed by  the  Nuclear  Regulatory
Commission (the "NRC") pursuant to Section 206 of the  Energy
Reorganization  Act  of 1974 and Part 21 of  NRC  regulations
thereunder, as they may be amended from time to time, and any
other  penalties, whether similar or dissimilar,  imposed  by
the  NRC, and (ii) excise taxes assessed with respect  to  an
employee  benefit  plan pursuant to the  Employee  Retirement
Income  Security Act of 1974, as it may be amended from  time
to   time,   ("ERISA");  for  purposes  of  determining   the
entitlement  of  a  director,  officer  or  employee  of  the
Corporation to indemnification under this Article,  the  term
"other  enterprise"  shall be deemed to include  an  employee
benefit  plan  governed by ERISA, the  Corporation  shall  be
deemed  to have requested such person to serve as an employee
of  such a plan where such person is a trustee of the plan or
where  the  performance by such person of his duties  to  the
Corporation  also  imposes duties on, or  otherwise  involves
services by, such person to such plan or its participants  or
beneficiaries, and action taken or permitted by  such  person

At such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present

connection with any corporate action by any provisions of any
applicable statute or by the Articles of Incorporation, the

of the Corporation shall be managed by its Board of
Directors, which may exercise all powers of the Corporation
and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by law
directed or required to be exercised or done by the
stockholders.

     Section 2. Number of Directors. The number of directors
which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be
not more than ten (10) nor less than three (3), with the

necessity of prior notice that the matter of fixing the
number of directors shall be a matter for consideration at
such meeting. The initial Board of Directors of the
Corporation shall consist of six (6) members. The directors
(other than the initial directors named in the initial report
of the Corporation) shall be elected at each annual meeting
of the stockholders, except as provided in Section 3 of this
Article III, and each director elected shall hold office for
one year and until his successor is elected and qualified,
unless sooner displaced. Directors need not be stockholders.
The number of directors may at any time be increased to any
number greater than ten (10) or decreased to less than three
(3), by amendment of the By-Laws of the Corporation;
provided, that no such decrease shall have the effect of
shortening the term of any incumbent director.

     Section 3. Vacancies. Vacancies and newly created
directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized
number of directors may be filled by a majority of the
directors then in office, though less than a quorum, and the

election and until their successors are elected and
qualified, unless sooner displaced.

time by giving written notice to the Board of Directors, the

such resignation shall not be necessary to make it effective.

     Section 5. Meetings. The Board of Directors of the
Corporation may hold any of its meetings at any place either
within or without the State of Louisiana. Members of the
Board of Directors may participate at Board Meetings either
by attending in person or by means of conference telephone or
similar communications equipment, provided that all persons
participating in the meeting can hear and communicate with
each other. Participation by means of conference telephone or
similar communications equipment shall constitute presence at
such meetings, except where a person participates in a
meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the
transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is
not lawfully called or convened. The first meeting of each
newly elected Board of Directors shall be held immediately
following the annual meeting of the stockholders, or at such
other time and place as shall be fixed by the vote of the
stockholders at said annual meeting, and no notice of such
meeting shall be necessary to the newly elected directors in
order legally to constitute the meeting, provided a quorum
shall be present. In the event that such first meeting of the
newly elected Board of Directors is not held at the time and
place authorized by the foregoing provision, the meeting may
be held at such time and place as shall be specified in a
notice given as hereinafter provided for special meetings of
the Board of Directors, or as shall be specified in a written
waiver signed by all of the directors.

     Section 6. Notice of Meetings. Regular meetings of the
Board of Directors may be held without notice at such times
and at such places as shall from time to time be determined
by the Board of Directors. Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be called by the Chairman of the Board or the
Vice Chairman of the Board or the President or by any Vice
President or by any two directors of the Corporation, on one
(1) day's notice to each director, either personally or by
mail or by telegram. Special meetings shall be called by the
Chairman of the Board or the Vice Chairman of the Board or
the President or any Vice President or the Secretary in like
manner and on like notice on the request of any two
directors.  Directors present at a meeting shall be deemed to
have received, or to have waived, due notice thereof.

     Section 7. Quorum. At all meetings of the Board of
Directors one-third of the total number of directors then in
office, but in no event less than three (3), shall constitute
a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a
majority of the directors present at any meeting at which
there is a quorum present shall be the act of the Board of
Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided
by law or by these By-Laws. If a quorum shall not be present
at any meeting of the Board of Directors, the director or
directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time
to time without notice other than announcement at the
meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

     Section 8. Proxy. Any director absent from a meeting of
the Board of Directors or any committee thereof may be
represented by any other director or any stockholder, who may
cast the vote of the absent director according to the written
instructions, general or specific, of the absent director.

     Section 9. Action by Consent. Any action required or
permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of
Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a
meeting, if a written consent thereto is signed by all
members of the Board of Directors or of such committee as the
case may be, and such written consent is filed with the
minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or such
committee, as the case may be.

     Section 10. Removal. Subject to the terms of any
outstanding employment agreement in writing and authorized by
the Board of Directors, any director may be removed from his
directorship, whether cause shall be assigned for such
removal or not, and such vacancy filled, at any duly convened
and constituted meeting of stockholders by the vote of a
majority of the shares represented at such meeting in person
or by proxy which are entitled to vote for the election of
directors.

     Section 11.  Chairman of the Board.  The Board of
Directors shall designate one of its members as Chairman of
the Board.  The position of Chairman of the Board is not an
officer position; therefore, the Chairman of the Board need

between the meetings of the Board of Directors, the Executive
Committee shall possess and may exercise all the powers of

was taken. The Executive Committee shall keep regular minutes
of its proceedings and all action by the Executive Committee
shall be reported to the Board of Directors at its meeting
next following the meeting of the Executive Committee and
shall be subject to revision or alteration by the Board of
Directors; provided, that no rights of third parties shall be

shares of stock owned by him in the Corporation. Certificates

or an Assistant Secretary, and sealed with the seal of the
Corporation. Such seal may be facsimile, engraved or printed.
Where such certificate is signed by a transfer agent or by a
registrar, other than the Corporation itself or an employee
of the Corporation, the signature of any such President, Vice
President, Treasurer, Secretary, Assistant Treasurer or
Assistant Secretary may be facsimile. In case any officer or
officers who shall have signed, or whose facsimile signature
or signatures shall have been used on any such certificate or
certificates shall cease to be such officer or officers of
the Corporation, whether because of death, resignation or
otherwise, before such certificate or certificates shall have
been delivered by the Corporation, such certificate or

who signed such certificate or certificates or whose
facsimile signature or signatures shall have been used
thereon had not ceased to be such officer or officers of the
Corporation.

     Section 2. Transfer of Shares. The shares of stock of
the Corporation shall be transferred on the books of the

attached thereto, duly executed, with such proof or guaranty
of the authenticity of the signature as the Corporation or
its agents may reasonably require.   The Board of Directors
may appoint one or more transfer agents and registrars of the
stock of the Corporation. The Corporation shall be entitled
to treat the holder of record of any share or shares of stock

interest in such share or shares on the part of any other
person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice
thereof, save as expressly provided by law.

     Section 3. Lost Certificates. The Board of Directors may
direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in
place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued
by the Corporation alleged to have been lost or destroyed,
and may require the making of an affidavit of that fact by
the person claiming the certificate of stock to be lost or
destroyed.

     When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or
certificates, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion
and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require
the owner of such lost or destroyed certificate or
certificates, or his legal representative, to give the
Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct as indemnity
against any claim that may be made against the Corporation
with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost or
destroyed.

Corporation may attend any meeting of the holders of stock or
other securities of any other corporation, any of whose stock

stockholder or otherwise at such meeting, or may consent in
writing to any action by any such corporation, and may
execute on behalf of the Corporation and under its corporate
seal, or otherwise, such written proxies, consents, waivers
or other instruments as he may deem necessary or appropriate.
Any of the foregoing acts or functions may also be performed
by any one or more of such persons as shall from time to time
be authorized by the Board of Directors or by a writing
executed by the chief executive officer of the Corporation.

Corporation shall be deposited in the name of the Corporation

shall be in such form as the Board of Directors may
prescribe.

required to be given under the provisions of applicable
statutes or of the Certificate of Incorporation or of these
By-Laws, a waiver thereof in writing, signed by the person or
persons entitled to said notice, whether before or after the
time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent thereto.

     Section 9. Record Dates. For the purpose of determining
stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting,
or to receive a dividend, or to receive or exercise
subscription or other rights, or to participate in a
reclassification of stock, or in order to make a
determination of stockholders for any other proper purpose,
the Board of Directors may fix in advance a record date for
determination of stockholders for such purpose, such date to
be not more than sixty (60) days and, if fixed for the
purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of and

may provide otherwise, if no record date is fixed for the
purpose of determining stockholders (i) entitled to notice of

before the notice of the meeting is mailed, or if notice is
waived, the close of business on the day before the meeting
shall be the record date for such purpose, or (ii) for any
other purpose, the close of business on the day on which the
Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto
shall be the record date for such purpose. A determination of
stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at a meeting
shall apply to any adjournment thereof unless otherwise
provided by the Board of Directors.

                       IDEMNIFICATION

     Section 1. Mandatory Indemnification. 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 ("Action"), whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (including
any Action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason
of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee
of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
the Corporation as a director, officer or employee 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, if
he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the
Corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful. In the case of Actions by or in the right of
the Corporation, such indemnity shall be limited to expenses
(including attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement not
exceeding the estimated expense of litigating the Action to
conclusion) actually and reasonably incurred in connection
with the defense or settlement of such Action and, in such
case, no indemnification under this Section 1 shall be made
in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which the
person proposed to be indemnified 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 shall determine upon application that, despite
the adjudication of liability but in view of all
circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court shall
deem proper. The termination of any Action by judgment,
order, settlement, conviction or 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 and in
a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect
to any criminal Action had reasonable cause to believe that
his conduct was unlawful.

     Section 2. Mandatory Indemnification - Successful Party.
To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation, or any person who 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, has been successful on the merits
or otherwise in the defense of any such Action, or in defense
of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith.

     Section 3. Permissive Indemnification. Notwithstanding
any limitations of the indemnification provided by Section 1,
the Corporation may indemnify any person who is or was a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any Action 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 all or part of any
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in connection with such Action, if it shall be
determined in accordance with the applicable procedures set
forth in Section 4 below, that such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to such indemnification.

     Section 4. Procedure. Any indemnification under Sections
l or 3 (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the
Corporation only as authorized by the Board of Directors
(which may so act whether or not there is a sufficient number
of disinterested directors to constitute a quorum) in the
specific case upon determination that indemnification of the
director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the
circumstances because he has met the applicable standards of
conduct set forth in Section 1 or is entitled to
indemnification under Section 3. Such determination, in the
case of indemnification made pursuant to Section l, shall be
made (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a
quorum, as defined in the Articles of Incorporation or the
By-Laws, consisting of directors who are not or were not
parties to any pending or completed Action giving rise to the
proposed indemnification or (2) if such a quorum is not
obtainable or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested
directors so directs, by independent legal counsel (who may
be, but need not be, outside counsel to the Corporation) in a
written opinion, or (3) by the shareholders. Such
determination, in the case of indemnification made pursuant
to Section 3, shall be made by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum, as defined in the Articles of
Incorporation or the By-Laws, consisting of directors who are
not or were not parties to any pending or completed Action
giving rise to the proposed indemnification or by the
shareholders.

     Section 5. Advance Payments. Expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred or reasonably expected to be
incurred by a director, officer or employee in defending
against any claim asserted or threatened against him in such
capacity or arising out of his status as such shall be paid
by the Corporation in advance of the final determination
thereof if authorized by the Board of Directors (which may so
act whether or not there is a sufficient number of
disinterested directors to constitute a quorum) upon receipt
by the Corporation of his written request therefor and his
written promise to repay such amount if it shall ultimately
be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Corporation as authorized or required in this Article.

     Section 6. Provisions Not Exclusive. The indemnification
provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which any person seeking indemnification may
be entitled under any law, by-law, agreement, vote of
shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, 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, executors and administrators of such a
person.

     Section 7. Miscellaneous. For purposes of this Article,
and without any limitation whatsoever upon the generality
thereof: the term "fines" as used herein shall be deemed to
include (i) penalties imposed by the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (the "NRC") pursuant to Section 206 of the Energy
Reorganization Act of 1974 and Part 21 of NRC regulations
thereunder, as they may be amended from time to time, and any
other penalties, whether similar or dissimilar, imposed by
the NRC, and (ii) excise taxes assessed with respect to an
employee benefit plan pursuant to the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as it may be amended from time
to time, ("ERISA"); for purposes of determining the
entitlement of a director, officer or employee of the Corpora
tion to indemnification under this Article, the term "other
enterprise" shall be deemed to include an employee benefit
plan governed by ERISA, the Corporation shall be deemed to
have requested such person to serve as an employee of such a
plan where such person is a trustee of the plan or where the
performance by such person of his duties to the Corporation
also imposes duties on, or otherwise involves services by,
such person to such plan or its participants or
beneficiaries, and action taken or permitted by such person
in the performance of his duties with respect to such
employee benefit plan for a purpose reasonably believed by
him to be in the interest of the participants and
beneficiaries of the plan shall be deemed to meet the
standard of conduct required for indemnification hereunder;
and any act, omission, step or conduct taken or had in good
faith which is required, authorized or approved by any order
or orders issued pursuant to the Public Utility Holding
Company Act of 1935 or any other federal statute or any state
statute or municipal ordinance shall be deemed to meet the
standard of conduct required for indemnification hereunder.

amendment or repeal, or by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of the whole Board of Directors at any meeting
thereof, provided notice of such alteration, amendment or
repeal has been given to each director in writing. No notice
of any alteration, amendment or repeal need be given if
adopted by action taken at a meeting duly held on waiver of
notice.

Attendance of a Director at a meeting shall constitute waiver

because such meeting is not lawfully called or convened.

     Section 2.  Quorum.  At all meetings of the Board of

Directors, the presence of a majority of the Directors

transaction of business. If a quorum shall not be present at

thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without

notice other than an announcement at the meeting, until a

quorum shall be present. Except as may be otherwise

specifically provided by the laws of the State of Delaware,

affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors present at

the time of such vote shall be the act of the Board of

Directors if a quorum is present.

Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action

required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board

of Directors or any Committee thereof may be taken without a

Committee, as the case may be, by means of conference

telephone or similar communications equipment by means of

which all persons participating in such meeting can hear each

other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this

Section 4 of Article IV shall constitute presence in person

at such meeting.

     Section 5.  Committees.  The Board of Directors may, by

resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board, designate

one or more committees, each committee to consist of one or

more of the Directors of the Corporation. The Board may

committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member

at any meeting of the committee. In the absence or

disqualification of a member of the committee, the member or

members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified

from voting, whether or not he or they constitute a quorum,

may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of

Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such absent

or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent

provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors, shall

have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the

Board of Directors in the management of the business and

affairs of the Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the

Corporation to be affixed to all papers which may require it;

but no such committee shall have power or authority in

reference to amending the Certificate of Incorporation,

adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation,

recommending to the stockholders the sale, lease or exchange

     Section 7.  Chairman of the Board.  The Board of

Directors shall designate one of its members as Chairman of

authorize any officer to appoint and remove such officers and

       Employees and Agents; Advancement of Expenses;
          Insurance and Other Funding Arrangements

     Section l.  Mandatory Indemnification for Directors and

Officers - Third Party Actions.  The Corporation shall

indemnify any Director or officer of the Corporation 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 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, had no

reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The

termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,

order, settlement, conviction, or 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 and in

a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed

to the best interest of the Corporation, and, with respect to

any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to

believe that his conduct was lawful. The right to

indemnification under this Section 1 of Article X shall be a

contract right that may be enforced in any lawful manner by a

Director or officer of the Corporation.

     Section 2.  Mandatory Indemnification for Directors and

Officers - Derivative Actions.  The Corporation shall

indemnify any Director or officer of the Corporation 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, employee

or agent of the Corporation, or is or was a Director,

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 and except that no

indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue

or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to

be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to the extent

that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or 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 the circumstances of the case,

such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity

for such expenses which the Court of Chancery of the State of

Delaware or such other court shall deem proper. The right to

indemnification under this Section 2 of Article X shall be a

contract right that may be enforced in any lawful manner by a

Director or officer of the Corporation.

     Section 3.  Mandatory Indemnification for Directors and

Officers - Successful Party.  To the extent that a Director

or officer of the Corporation has been successful on the

merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or

proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article X

or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall

be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees)

actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection

therewith. The right to indemnification under this Section 3

of Article X shall be a contract right that may be enforced

in any lawful manner by a Director or officer of the

Corporation.

     Section 4.  Indemnification for Employees and Agents.

The Board of Directors may grant to an employee or agent of

the Corporation who is not an officer of the Corporation

rights to indemnification upon such terms and conditions as

the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

     Section 5.  Procedure.  Any indemnification under the

foregoing provisions of this Article X (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 Director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the

circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of

conduct as set forth in, or established pursuant to, Sections

1, 2 and 4 of this Article X. 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 or proceeding, or (ii) if such a quorum is not

obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested

constituting  the  Board  shall  constitute  a  quorum  for   the

transaction of business. If a quorum shall not be present at  any

meeting  of the Board of Directors, the Directors present thereat

may  adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice  other

than  an  announcement at the meeting, until a  quorum  shall  be

present. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided by  the

laws  of  the State of Delaware, the Certificate of Incorporation

or  these  By-Laws,  the affirmative vote of a  majority  of  the

Directors  present at the time of such vote shall be the  act  of

the Board of Directors if a quorum is present.

      Section  3.  Consent. Unless otherwise  restricted  by  the

Certificate  of  Incorporation  or  these  By-Laws,  any   action

required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board  of

Directors may be taken without a meeting, if all members  of  the

Board consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are

filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board.

      Section 4. Telephonic Meetings. Unless otherwise restricted

by  the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, members of

the  Board of Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board

by  means  of  conference  telephone  or  similar  communications

equipment  by  means of which all persons participating  in  such

meeting  can  hear  each other, and participation  in  a  meeting

pursuant  to  this  Section  4  of Article  IV  shall  constitute

presence in person at such meeting.

     Section 5. Committees. The Board of Directors, by resolution

passed  by  a majority of the whole Board, may designate  one  or

more committees, each committee to consist of one or more of  the

Directors of the Corporation. The Board may designate one or more

Directors as alternate members of any committee, who may  replace

any   absent  or  disqualified  member  at  any  meeting  of  the

committee. In the absence or disqualification of a member of  the

committee,  the member or members thereof present at any  meeting

and  not  disqualified from voting, whether or  not  he  or  they

constitute  a quorum, may unanimously appoint another  member  of

the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such

absent  or disqualified member. Any such committee, to the extent

provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors, shall  have

and  may  exercise all the powers and authority of the  Board  of

Directors  in the management of the business and affairs  of  the

Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to  be

affixed to all papers which may require it; but no such committee

shall  have  power  or  authority in reference  to  amending  the

Certificate of Incorporation, adopting an agreement of merger  or

consolidation, recommending to the stockholders the  sale,  lease

or  exchange  of  all or substantially all of  the  Corporation's

property   and   assets,  recommending  to  the  stockholders   a

dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of dissolution, or

amending these By-Laws.

      Unless  the  Board  of Directors otherwise  provides,  each

committee  designated  by the Board may make,  alter  and  repeal

rules  for  the conduct of its business. In the absence  of  such

rules  each  committee  shall conduct its business  in  the  same

manner  as the Board of Directors conducts its business  pursuant

to the Certificate of Incorporation and these By-Laws.

     Section 6. Resignations. Any Director of the Corporation may

resign  at  any  time by giving written notice to  the  Board  of

Directors or to the Chairman of the Board, the President  or  the

Secretary  of  the Corporation. Any such resignation  shall  take

effect  at  the time specified therein, or, if the  time  be  not

specified,  upon receipt thereof; and unless otherwise  specified

therein, acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to

make it effective.

The  Board  of  Directors may, from time to time,  authorize  any

officer  to  appoint  and  remove  subordinate  officers  and  to

     Section 8. Transfer of Duties. The Board of Directors in its

absolute  discretion may transfer the power and duties, in  whole

or  in  part,  of any officer to any other officer,  or  persons,

Directors.

      Section  11.  Compensation of Officers. The officers  shall

receive such salary or compensation as may be determined  by  the

the Corporation.

direct,  all  contracts, checks, drafts, bills  of  exchange  and

promissory  notes  and  other  negotiable  instruments   of   the

Corporation  shall be executed in the name of the Corporation  by

the  Chairman  of  the Board, the President,  a  Vice  President,

                           ARTICLE VII

                              Stock

      Section  1.  Certificates of Stock.  The  certificates  for

shares of the stock of the Corporation shall be in such form, not

signed by, or in the name of the Corporation, by the Chairman  of

the  Board,  the  President  or a  Vice  President,  and  by  the

Treasurer or the Secretary certifying the number of shares  owned

by  him and the date of issue; and no certificate shall be  valid

unless   so  signed.  All  certificates  shall  be  consecutively

numbered and shall be entered in the books of the Corporation  as

they are issued.

      All signatures on the certificate may be facsimile. In case

any  officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose

facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have

ceased  to  be  such officer, transfer agent or registrar  before

such  certificate is issued, it may be issued by the  Corporation

with  the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer  agent

or registrar at the date of issue.

      Section  2.  Transfer  of  Stock.  Upon  surrender  to  the

Corporation  or  the  transfer agent  of  the  Corporation  of  a

certificate  for  shares duly endorsed or accompanied  by  proper

evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer,  the

Corporation      shall      issue     a      new      certificate

to  the  person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate  and

record the transaction upon its books.



                          ARTICLE VIII

                     Registered Stockholders

      The  Corporation shall be entitled to treat the  holder  of

record  of  any  share or shares of stock as the holder  in  fact

thereof  and,  accordingly, shall not be bound to  recognize  any

equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such share or shares

on  the  part of any other person, whether or not it  shall  have

express  or  other notice thereof, save as expressly provided  by

the laws of the State of Delaware.



                           ARTICLE IX

                        Lost Certificates

      Any  person claiming a certificate of stock to be  lost  or

destroyed shall make an affidavit or affirmation of the fact  and

advertise  the same in such manner as the Board of Directors  may

require,  and  the  Board of Directors, in  its  discretion,  may

require  the owner of the lost or destroyed certificate,  or  his

legal  representative, to give the Corporation a bond  in  a  sum

sufficient,  in  the  opinion  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  to

indemnify  the  Corporation against any claim that  may  be  made

against   it  on  account  of  the  alleged  loss  of  any   such

certificate. A new certificate of the same tenor and for the same

number  of shares as the one alleged to be lost or destroyed  may

be issued without requiring any bond when, in the judgment of the

Directors, it is proper so to do.



                            ARTICLE X

                      Fixing of Record Date

     In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders

entitled  to  notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders

or  any  adjournment thereof, or to express consent to  corporate

action in writing without a meeting, or to receive payment of any

dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or  to

exercise  any  rights  in respect of any  change,  conversion  or

exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful  action,

the  Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which

shall  not  be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten  (10)  days

before  the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty  (60)  days

prior  to  any  other action. A determination of stockholders  of

record  entitled  to  notice  of or  to  vote  at  a  meeting  of

stockholders  shall  apply  to any adjournment  of  the  meeting;

provided,  however, that the Board of Directors  may  fix  a  new

record date for the adjourned meeting.



                           ARTICLE XI

                            Dividends

      Dividends upon the common stock of the Corporation  may  be

declared  by  the  Board of Directors at any regular  or  special

meeting,  pursuant  to law. Dividends may be  paid  in  cash,  in

property,  or  in shares of the common stock of the  Corporation,

subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation.

      Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside  out

of any funds of the Corporation available for dividends such sums

as the Directors from time to time, in their absolute discretion,

think  proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies,  or

for  equalizing  dividends, or for repairing or  maintaining  any

property  of  the Corporation, or for such other purpose  as  the

Directors   shall  think  conducive  to  the  interest   of   the

Corporation,  and  the Directors may modify or abolish  any  such

reserve in the manner in which it was created.



                           ARTICLE XII

                        Waiver of Notice

      Whenever  any notice whatever is required to  be  given  by

statute   or   under  the  provisions  of  the   Certificate   of

Incorporation  or  these  By-Laws, a waiver  thereof  in  writing

signed  by the person or persons entitled to said notice, whether

before  or  after  the time stated therein, shall  be  equivalent

thereto.



                          ARTICLE XIII

                              Seal

      The  corporate seal of the Corporation shall have inscribed

thereon the name of the Corporation, the year of its organization

and the words "Corporate Seal, Delaware."



                           ARTICLE XIV

                           Fiscal Year

     The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be the calendar

year.



                           ARTICLE XV


             Indemnification of Officers, Directors,
         Employees and Agents; Advancement of Expenses;
            Insurance and Other Funding Arrangements

      Section  1.  Mandatory Indemnification  for  Directors  and

Officers  - Third Party Actions. The Corporation shall  indemnify

any  Director or officer of the Corporation 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  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,  had  no

reasonable  cause  to  believe  his  conduct  was  unlawful.  The

termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order,

settlement, conviction, or 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 and in  a  manner  which  he

reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best  interest

of  the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action  or

proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct  was

unlawful.   The right to indemnification under this Section 1  of

Article XV shall be a contract right that may be enforced in  any

lawful manner by a Director or officer of the Corporation.

      Section  2.   Mandatory Indemnification for  Directors  and

Officers  - Derivative Actions.  The Corporation shall  indemnify

any  Director or officer of the Corporation 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 and except that no indemnification shall  be

made  in  respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which  such

person  shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation,

unless  and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of  the

State  of Delaware or 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 the circumstances of

the  case,  such  person  is fairly and  reasonably  entitled  to

indemnity  for such expenses which the Court of Chancery  of  the

State  of  Delaware or such other court shall  deem  proper.  The

right to indemnification under this Section 2 of Article XV shall

be  a contract right that may be enforced in any lawful manner by

a Director or officer of the Corporation.

      Section  3.  Mandatory Indemnification  for  Directors  and

Officers  -  Successful Party. To the extent that a  Director  or

officer  of the Corporation has been successful on the merits  or

otherwise  in defense of any action, suit or proceeding  referred

to  in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article XV, or in defense of  any

claim,  issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified  against

expenses  (including  attorneys' fees)  actually  and  reasonably

incurred   by   him  in  connection  therewith.  The   right   to

indemnification under this Section 3 of Article  XV  shall  be  a

contract  right that may be enforced in any lawful  manner  by  a

Director or officer of the Corporation.

      Section  4.  Indemnification for Employees and Agents.  The

Board  of  Directors may grant to an employee  or  agent  of  the

Corporation  who is not an officer of the Corporation  rights  to

indemnification upon such terms and conditions as  the  Board  of

Directors deems appropriate.

       Section  5.  Procedure.  Any  indemnification  under   the

foregoing  provisions  of this Article XV (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  Director, officer, employee or agent is  proper  in  the

circumstances  because  he  has met the  applicable  standard  of

conduct as set forth in, or established pursuant to Section 1,  2

or  4 of this Article XV. 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 or  proceeding,

or  (ii)  if  such  a  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

stockholders.

     Section 6. Advance Payments. Expenses incurred by an officer

or  Director  in  defending a civil or criminal action,  suit  or

proceeding  shall be paid by the Corporation in  advance  of  the

final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt

of  an undertaking by or on behalf of such Director or officer to

repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is

not  entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as  authorized

in  this  Article  XV.  The right of Directors  and  officers  to

advancement of expenses under this Section 6 of Article XV  shall

be  a contract right that may be enforced in any lawful manner by

a  Director or officer of the Corporation. Such expenses incurred

by  other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and

conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

     Section 7. Provisions not Exclusive. The indemnification and

advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to,  the

other  subsections  of  this  Article  XV  shall  not  be  deemed

exclusive   of   any   other  rights  to  which   those   seeking

indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled  under

any agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested Directors or

otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and  as  to

action in another capacity while holding such office.

      Section  8.  Insurance. The Corporation  may  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 the provisions of this Article XV.

      Section  9.  Other Arrangements. The Corporation  also  may

obtain a letter of credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve,

trust,  escrow,  cash collateral or other fund or account,  enter

into  indemnification  agreements, pledge  or  grant  a  security

interest in any assets or properties of the Corporation,  or  use

any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such amounts, at

such costs, and upon such other terms and conditions as the Board

of  Directors shall deem appropriate for the protection of any or

all such persons.

      Section  10.   Separability.  If this  Article  XV  or  any

portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of

competent  jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall  nevertheless

indemnify each director and officer, and each employee  or  agent

of the Corporation as to whom the Corporation has agreed to grant

indemnity, as to liabilities and expenses, and amounts paid or to

be  paid  in settlement with respect to any proceeding, including

an  action  by or in the right of the Corporation,  to  the  full

extent  permitted by any applicable portion of  this  Article  XV

that  shall  not  have been invalidated and to  the  full  extent

permitted by applicable law.

      Section 11.  Miscellaneous.  (a) For the purposes  of  this

Article   XV,   references  to  "the  Corporation"  include   all

constituent corporations absorbed in a consolidation  or  merger,

as  well  as the resulting or surviving corporation, so that  any

person  who is or was a Director, officer, employee or  agent  of

such  a  constituent  corporation or is or  was  serving  at  the

request  of such constituent corporation as a director,  officer,

employee  or  agent  of another corporation,  partnership,  joint

venture,  trust  or  other enterprise, shall stand  in  the  same

position under the provisions of this Article XV with respect  to

the  resulting  or surviving corporation as he would  if  he  had

served  the  resulting  or  surviving  corporation  in  the  same

capacity.

      (b)  For purposes of this Article XV, references to  "other

enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references  to

"fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person  with

respect  to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving

at the request of the Corporation" shall include any service as a

Director,  officer,  employee or agent of the  Corporation  which

imposes  duties  on,  or  involves services  by,  such  Director,

officer,  employee or agent with respect to an  employee  benefit

plan,  its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who  acted

in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the

interest  of  the participants and beneficiaries of  an  employee

benefit  plan  shall be deemed to have acted  in  a  manner  "not

opposed to the best interests of the Corporation" as referred  to

in this Article XV.

     (c) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided

by,  or  granted  pursuant  to, this  Article  XV  shall,  unless

constitute a quorum, stockholders owning a majority of the issued

and  outstanding  shares of the common stock of  the  Corporation

entitled  to vote at said meeting. At any meeting of stockholders

at which a quorum is not present, the holders of, or proxies for,

a  majority  of  the  common stock which is represented  at  such

meeting,  shall have power to adjourn the meeting  from  time  to

time,  without  notice other than announcement  at  the  meeting,

until a quorum shall be present or represented. At such adjourned

meeting  at  which a quorum shall be present or represented,  any

business  may  be transacted which might have been transacted  at

the meeting as originally noticed. If the adjournment is for more

than  thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new  record

date  is  fixed  for  the  adjourned meeting,  a  notice  of  the

adjourned  meeting shall be given to each stockholder  of  record

entitled to vote at the meeting.

      Section  4.   Voting. Each holder of record of  the  common

stock  of  the  Corporation  shall,  at  every  meeting  of   the

stockholders of the Corporation, be entitled to one (1) vote  for

the  Corporation, and such votes may be cast either in person  or

by  proxy,  appointed by an instrument in writing, subscribed  by

such  stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney,  and  filed

with  the Secretary before being voted on, but no proxy shall  be

voted  after  three  (3) years from its date, unless  said  proxy

provides for a longer period. Except as otherwise required by the

laws   of   the   State  of  Delaware  or  the   Certificate   of

Incorporation, the holders of the common stock of the Corporation

shall  exclusively possess all voting power for the  election  of

Directors and for all other purposes and are entitled to vote  on

each matter to be voted on at a stockholders' meeting.

the holders of the majority of the shares of the common stock  of

the Corporation present in person or by proxy.

      When a quorum is present at any meeting of the stockholders

of  the Corporation, the vote of the holders of a majority of the

shares  of  the  common stock of the Corporation and  present  in

person  or represented by proxy shall decide any question brought

before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, under

any  provision  of the laws of the State of Delaware  or  of  the

Certificate  of Incorporation, a different vote is  required,  in

which  case such provision shall govern and control the  decision

of such question.

      Whenever the vote of the holders of the common stock of the

Corporation at a meeting thereof is required or permitted  to  be

taken in connection with any corporate action by any provision of

the  laws  of  the  State of Delaware or of  the  Certificate  of

Incorporation,  such  corporate action may  be  taken  without  a

meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in

writing,  setting forth the action so taken, shall be  signed  by

the holders of outstanding common stock of the Corporation having

not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary

to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares

entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. Prompt notice of

the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than

unanimous  written  consent shall be given to those  stockholders

who have not consented thereto in writing.

      Section  5.  List  of  Stockholders.  The  officer  of  the

Corporation  who  shall have charge of the stock  ledger  of  the

Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before

every   meeting  of  stockholders,  a  complete   list   of   the

stockholders  entitled  to  vote at  said  meeting,  arranged  in

alphabetical  order and showing the address of  each  stockholder

and  the  number  of  shares  registered  in  the  name  of  each

stockholder.  Such list shall be open to the examination  of  any

stockholder,  for  any  purpose germane to  the  meeting,  during

ordinary  business hours for a period of at least ten  (10)  days

prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the

meeting  is  to  be held, which place shall be specified  in  the

notice  of  the meeting, or, if not so specified,  at  the  place

where  the meeting is to be held. The list also shall be produced

and  kept  at the time and place of the meeting during the  whole

time  thereof,  and  may be inspected by any stockholder  who  is

present.

      Section 6. Organization. The Chairman of the Board  or  the

President, or in their absence, any Vice President, shall call to

order  meetings of the stockholders and shall act as chairman  of

such  meetings.  The Board of Directors or the  stockholders  may

appoint  any  stockholder  or  any Director  or  officer  of  the

Corporation to act as chairman of any meeting in the  absence  of

the  Chairman  of the Board, the President and all  of  the  Vice

Presidents.

      The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary  of

all  meetings  of  the stockholders, but in the  absence  of  the

Secretary  the presiding officer may appoint any other person  to

act as secretary of any meeting.

       Section  1.  Powers.  The  business  and  affairs  of  the

Corporation shall be managed by the Board of Directors which  may

exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things  as  may

be  exercised  or done by the Corporation; subject, nevertheless,

to  the  provisions  of the laws of the State  of  Delaware,  the

Certificate of Incorporation, and any By-Laws from time  to  time

passed by the stockholders; provided, however, that no By-Law  so

created shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which was

valid in the absence of such By-Law.

      Section  2.  Number of Directors. The number  of  Directors

which shall constitute the whole Board shall be not less than one

(I)  nor  more than ten (10). Within such limits, the  number  of

Directors  may  be  fixed  from time  to  time  by  vote  of  the

stockholders  or  of the Board of Directors  at  any  regular  or

special  meeting.  Directors need not be stockholders.  Directors

shall be elected at the annual meeting of the stockholders of the

Corporation, except as herein provided, to serve until  the  next

annual   meeting  of  stockholders  and  until  their  respective

successors are duly elected and have qualified.

       Section  3.  Vacancies.  Vacancies  occurring  among   the

Directors (other than in the case of removal of a Director) shall

be filled by a majority vote of the Directors then in office with

the  consent  of  the holders of a majority  of  the  issued  and

outstanding  common  stock of the Corporation,  or  by  the  sole

remaining Director with the consent of the holders of a  majority

of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Corporation, or

by  resolution duly adopted by the holders of a majority  of  the

issued  and  outstanding common stock of the  Corporation,  at  a

special meeting held for such purpose, or by action taken in lieu

of  such  meeting, or at the next annual meeting of  stockholders

following any vacancy.

      Section 4. Removal. At any meeting of stockholders  of  the

Corporation called for the purpose, the holders of a majority  of

the  issued  and outstanding shares of the common  stock  of  the

Corporation may remove from office, with or without cause, any or

all of the Directors and the successor of any Director so removed

shall  be elected by the holders of a majority of the issued  and

outstanding common stock of the Corporation at such meeting or at

a later meeting.

     Section 5. Meetings. The first meeting of each newly elected

Board of Directors shall be held immediately following the annual

meeting  of  stockholders and at the same place at which  regular

meetings  of  the Board of Directors are held, or at  such  other

time  and place as may be provided by resolution of the Board  of

Directors,  and no notice of such meeting shall be  necessary  to

the  newly  elected Directors in order legally  to  constitute  a

meeting,  provided a quorum is present. In the  event  that  such

first meeting of the newly elected Board of Directors is not held

at  the time and place authorized by the foregoing provision, the

meeting  may be held at such time and place as shall be specified

in a notice given as hereinafter provided for special meetings of

the  Board  of Directors, or as shall be specified in  a  written

waiver signed by all the Directors. Regular meetings of the Board

of  Directors may be held without notice at such time and  place,

either  within  or without the State of Delaware, as  shall  from

time  to  time  be  determined by resolutions  of  the  Board  of

Directors.  Special  meetings of the Board of  Directors  may  be

called  by  the  Chairman of the Board or  by  the  President  on

reasonable notice as provided in these By-Laws, and such meetings

shall be held at the principal business office of the Corporation

or  at  such other place or places, either within or without  the

State of Delaware, as shall be specified in the notice thereof.

      Section  6.  Quorum.  At  all  meetings  of  the  Board  of

Directors,   the  presence  of  a  majority  of   the   Directors

constituting  the  Board  shall  constitute  a  quorum  for   the

transaction of business. If a quorum shall not be present at  any

meeting of the Board of Directors, the Directors present thereat,

by  majority  vote, may adjourn the meeting from  time  to  time,

without notice other than an announcement at the meeting, until a

quorum  shall be present. Except as may be otherwise specifically

provided by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Certificate of

Incorporation  or  these  By-Laws,  the  affirmative  vote  of  a

majority of the Directors present at the time of such vote  shall

be the act of the Board of Directors if a quorum is present.

      Section 7. Notice of Meetings. Notice of any meeting of the

Board  of  Directors  requiring notice shall  be  given  to  each

Director by personal delivery or by mail or by telegram,  in  any

case  at  least forty-eight (48) hours before the time fixed  for

the  meeting.  At  any meeting at which all  Directors  shall  be

present, or at which all Directors not present have waived notice

in  writing,  the  giving  of notice as above  described  may  be

dispensed  with.  Attendance of a Director  at  a  meeting  shall

constitute  waiver of notice of such meeting,  except  when  such

Director  attends  such  meeting  for  the  express  purpose   of

objecting,  at the beginning of such meeting, to the  transaction

of  any  business because such meeting is not lawfully called  or

convened.

     Section 8. Action by Consent. Unless otherwise restricted by

the  Certificate  of Incorporation or these By-Laws,  any  action

required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board  of

Directors may be taken without a meeting, if all members  of  the

Board consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are

filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board.

      Section 9. Telephonic Meetings. Unless otherwise restricted

by  the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws, members of

the  Board of Directors may participate in a meeting of the Board

by  means  of  conference  telephone  or  similar  communications

equipment  by  means of which all persons participating  in  such

meeting  can  hear  each other, and participation  in  a  meeting

pursuant  to  this  Section  9  of Article  IV  shall  constitute

presence in person at such meeting.

      Section  10. Resignations. Any Director of the  Corporation

may  resign at any time by giving written notice to the Board  of

Directors or to the Chairman of the Board, the President  or  the

Secretary  of  the Corporation. Any such resignation  shall  take

effect  at  the time specified therein, or, if the  time  be  not

specified,  upon receipt thereof; and unless otherwise  specified

therein, acceptance of such resignation shall not be necessary to

make it effective.

            Executive Committee and Other Committees

      Section 1. Executive Committee. The Board of Directors may,

by  resolution  passed  by  a majority  of  the  whole  Board  of

Directors, appoint an Executive Committee of not less than two or

more than five members, to serve during the pleasure of the Board

management  and  direction of the business  and  affairs  of  the

Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to  be

affixed to all papers which may require it. The taking of  action

by  the Executive Committee shall be conclusive evidence that the

Board of Directors was not in session when such action was taken.

The  Executive  Committee  shall  keep  regular  minutes  of  its

proceedings  and all action by the Executive Committee  shall  be

reported  to the Board of Directors at its meeting next following

the  meeting of the Executive Committee and shall be  subject  to

revision or alteration by the Board of Directors; provided,  that

no  rights of third parties shall be affected by such revision or

alteration.

      Section 4. Other Committees. From time to time the Board of

Directors,  by the affirmative vote of a majority  of  the  whole

Board  of Directors, may appoint other committees for any purpose

or  purposes, and such committees shall have such powers as shall

be  conferred by the resolution of appointment. In the absence or

disqualification  of  a  member of any committee  (including  the

Executive  Committee), the member or members thereof  present  at

any  meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not  he

or  they  constitute  a quorum, may unanimously  appoint  another

member  of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in  place

of any such absent or disqualified member.

entire Board of Directors.  Any number of offices may be held  by

the  same person.  The Board of Directors may from time  to  time

appoint  such  other officers and agents as the interest  of  the

chief   executive  officer  to  appoint  and  remove  subordinate

officers and to prescribe the powers and duties thereof.

     Section 8. Transfer of Duties. The Board of Directors in its

absolute  discretion may transfer the power and duties, in  whole

or  in  part,  of any officer to any other officer,  or  persons,

notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  these  By-Laws,  except  as

otherwise provided by the laws of the State of Delaware.

the Board, President, Vice President, Secretary or Treasurer,  or

of  any other officer or agent becomes vacant for any reason, the

Board  of  Directors  may,  but is  not  required  to,  choose  a

successor to hold office for the remainder of the unexpired term.

Except when the law requires the act of a particular officer, the

Board of Directors whenever necessary may, in the absence of  any

officer,  designate  any  other  officer  or  properly  qualified

employee,  to perform the duties of the one absent for  the  time

being,  and such designated officer or employee shall have,  when

so acting, all the powers herein given to such absent officer.

      Section  10.  Removals.  At any meeting  of  the  Board  of

Directors  called for the purpose, any officer or  agent  of  the

Corporation may be removed from office, with or without cause, by

the  affirmative  vote  of a majority  of  the  entire  Board  of

Directors.

receive such salary or compensation as may be determined  by  the

affirmative  vote of the majority of the Board of  Directors.  No

officer  shall  be  prevented  from  receiving  such  salary   or

the Corporation.



                           ARTICLE VII

                   Contracts, Checks and Notes

      Unless  the Board of Directors shall otherwise specifically

direct,  all  contracts, checks, drafts, bills  of  exchange  and

promissory notes and other negotiable instruments of the  Corpora

tion  shall  be  executed in the name of the Corporation  by  the

Chairman of the Board, the President, a Vice President, Secretary

or  Treasurer or any officer as may be designated by the Board of

Directors.



                          ARTICLE VIII

                          Capital Stock

      Section  1.  Certificates of Stock.  The  certificates  for

shares of the stock of the Corporation shall be in such form, not

inconsistent with the Certificate of Incorporation, as  shall  be

prepared  or approved by the Board of Directors. Every holder  of

stock  in the Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate

signed by, or in the name of the Corporation, by the Chairman  of

the  Board (if chief executive officer), the President or a  Vice

President,  and by the Treasurer or the Secretary certifying  the

number  of  shares  owned by him and the date of  issue;  and  no

certificate  shall  be valid unless so signed.  All  certificates

shall be consecutively numbered and shall be entered in the books

of the Corporation as they are issued.

      All signatures on the certificate may be facsimile. In case

any  officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose

facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have

ceased  to  be  such officer, transfer agent or registrar  before

such  certificate is issued, it may be issued by the  Corporation

with  the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer  agent

or registrar at the date of issue.

      Section  2.  Transfer  of  Stock.  Upon  surrender  to  the

Corporation  or  the  transfer agent  of  the  Corporation  of  a

certificate  for  shares duly endorsed or accompanied  by  proper

evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer,  the

Corporation shall issue a new certificate to the person  entitled

thereto,  cancel  the old certificate and record the  transaction

upon its books.

     Section 3. Registered Stockholders. The Corporation shall be

entitled to treat the holder of record of any share or shares  of

stock  as the holder in fact thereof and, accordingly, shall  not

be  bound  to  recognize  any equitable or  other  claim  to,  or

interest  in,  such  share or shares on the  part  of  any  other

person,  whether  or not it shall have express  or  other  notice

thereof,  save as expressly provided by the laws of the State  of

Delaware.

       Section  4.  Lost  Certificates  Any  person  claiming   a

certificate  of  stock  to  be lost or destroyed  shall  make  an

affidavit  or affirmation of the fact and advertise the  same  in

such  manner as the Board of Directors may require, and the Board

of  Directors, in its discretion, may require the  owner  of  the

lost  or  destroyed certificate, or his legal representative,  to

give  the Corporation a bond in a sum sufficient, in the  opinion

of  the  Board of Directors, to indemnify the Corporation against

any  claim that may be made against it on account of the  alleged

loss of any such certificate. A new certificate of the same tenor

and  for the same number of shares as the one alleged to be  lost

or  destroyed may be issued without requiring any bond  when,  in

the judgment of the Directors, it is proper so to do.

      Section  5.  Record Date In order that the Corporation  may

determine  the stockholders entitled to notice of or to  vote  at

any  meeting  of stockholders or any adjournment thereof,  or  to

express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting,

or  to  receive payment of any dividend or other distribution  or

allotment of any rights, or to exercise any rights in respect  of

any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of

any  other  lawful  action, the Board of Directors  may  fix,  in

advance,  a record date, which shall not be more than sixty  (60)

nor  less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor

more  than  sixty  (60)  days  prior  to  any  other  action.   A

determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of  or

to  vote  at  a  meeting  of  stockholders  shall  apply  to  any

adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board  of

Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.



                           ARTICLE IX

                            Dividends

      Dividends upon the common stock of the Corporation  may  be

declared  by  the  Board of Directors at any regular  or  special

meeting,  pursuant  to law. Dividends may be  paid  in  cash,  in

property,  or  in shares of the common stock of the  Corporation,

subject to the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation.

      Before payment of any dividend, there may be set aside  out

of any funds of the Corporation available for dividends such sums

as the Directors from time to time, in their absolute discretion,

think  proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies,  or

for  equalizing  dividends, or for repairing or  maintaining  any

property  of  the Corporation, or for such other purpose  as  the

Directors   shall  think  conducive  to  the  interest   of   the

Corporation,  and  the Directors may modify or abolish  any  such

reserve in the manner in which it was created.



                            ARTICLE X

                        Waiver of Notice

      Whenever  any notice whatever is required to  be  given  by

statute   or   under  the  provisions  of  the   Certificate   of

Incorporation  or  these  By-Laws, a waiver  thereof  in  writing

signed  by the person or persons entitled to said notice, whether

before  or  after  the time stated therein, shall  be  equivalent

thereto,  unless  expressly provided otherwise in  such  statute,

Certificate of Incorporation or these By-Laws.

                           ARTICLE XI

                              Seal

      The  corporate seal of the Corporation shall have inscribed

thereon the name of the Corporation, the year of its organization

and  the  words "Corporate Seal, Delaware", or shall be  in  such

other form as the Board of Directors may prescribe.



                           ARTICLE XII

                           Fiscal Year

     The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be the calendar

                          ARTICLE XIII


            Indemnification; Advancement of Expenses;
            Insurance and Other Funding Arrangements
      Section 1. Mandatory Indemnification - Third Party Actions.

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 ("Action"), 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 or employee of the Corporation,

or  is  or  was  serving at the request of the Corporation  as  a

Director,   officer   or   employee   of   another   corporation,

partnership,  joint  venture, trust or other enterprise,  against

expenses  (including  attorneys'  fees),  judgments,  fines   and

amounts  paid in settlement actually and reasonable  incurred  by

him  in connection with such Action 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, had no reasonable cause to believe his  conduct

was  unlawful. The termination of any Action by judgment,  order,

settlement, conviction, or 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 and in  a  manner  which  he

reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best  interest

of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal Action, had

reasonable  cause to believe that his conduct was  unlawful.  The

right  to  indemnification under this Section 1 of  Article  XIII

shall  be  a  contract right that may be enforced in  any  lawful

manner by a person entitled to such Indemnification.

      Section  2. Mandatory Indemnification - Derivative Actions.

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 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 or employee of the Corporation, or is  or  was

serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer,

or  employee 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 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 except  that

no  indemnification under these By-Laws shall be made in  respect

of  any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have

been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless and only to

the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or

the  court in which such Action was brought, shall determine upon

application  that, despite the adjudication of liability  but  in

view  of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly

and  reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the

Court  of  Chancery of the State of Delaware or such other  court

shall  deem  proper.  The  right to  indemnification  under  this

Section 2 of Article XIII shall be a contract right that  may  be

enforced  in  any  lawful  manner by a person  entitled  to  such

indemnification.

      Section 3. Mandatory Indemnification - Successful Party. To

the  extent  that a Director, officer, employee or agent  of  the

Corporation  has  been successful on the merits or  otherwise  in

defense  of  any Action referred to in Sections I or  2  of  this

Article  XIII,  or  in  defense of any  claim,  issue  or  matter

therein,  he  shall  be indemnified against  expenses  (including

attorneys'  fees)  actually and reasonably  incurred  by  him  in

connection  therewith.  The right to indemnification  under  this

Section 3 of Article XIII shall be a contract right that  may  be

enforced  in  any  lawful  manner by a person  entitled  to  such

indemnification.

      Section  4. Permissive Indemnification. Except as otherwise

expressly  provided  in  Section 2  of  this  Article  XIII,  the

Corporation may also indemnify any person who is or was  a  party

or  is  threatened to be made a party to any Action 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  all  or  part of  any  expenses  (including

attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement

actually  and reasonably incurred by him in connection with  such

Action  if  it  shall  be  determined  in  accordance  with   the

applicable procedures set forth in Section 5 that such person  is

fairly and reasonably entitled to such indemnification.

       Section  5.  Procedure.  Any  indemnification  under   the

foregoing  provisions of this Article XIII (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

Director,   officer,  employee  or  agent  is   proper   in   the

circumstances  because  he has met the  applicable  standards  of

conduct  set  forth  in  Sections 1  or  2,  or  is  entitled  to

indemnification  under  Section 4, of  this  Article  XIII.  Such

determination  shall be made (i) by the Board of Directors  by  a

majority  vote  of  a  quorum, as defined in the  Certificate  of

Incorporation or these By-Laws, consisting of Directors  who  are

not or were not parties to any pending or completed Action giving

rise to the proposed indemnification, or (ii) if such a 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 stockholders.

      Section 6. Advance Payments. Expenses (including attorneys'

fees)  incurred  or  reasonably expected  to  be  incurred  by  a

Director  or officer of the Corporation in defending  any  Action

referred to in Sections I or 2 of this Article XIII shall be paid

by  the Corporation in advance of the final determination thereof

upon  receipt by the Corporation of his written request  therefor

and  his  written  promise  to repay  such  amount  if  it  shall

ultimately  be  determined  that  he  is  not  entitled   to   be

indemnified by the Corporation as authorized or required by  this

Article  XIII. The right of Directors and officers to advancement

of  expenses  under this Section 6 of Article  XIII  shall  be  a

contract  right that may be enforced in any lawful  manner  by  a

Director or officer of the Corporation. Such expenses incurred by

other  employees  and  agents may be paid  upon  such  terms  and

conditions, if any, as the Board of Directors deems appropriate.

     Section 7. Provisions Not Exclusive. The indemnification and

advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this

Article  shall  not be deemed exclusive of any  other  rights  to

which  any  person  seeking indemnification  and  advancement  of

expenses, may be entitled under any law, by-law, agreement,  vote

of  stockholders 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, executors  and

administrators of such a person.

      Section  8.  Insurance. The Corporation  may  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 the provisions of this Article XIII.

      Section  9.  Other Arrangements. The Corporation  also  may

obtain  a  letter  of  credit, act as a  self-insurer,  create  a

reserve, trust, escrow, cash collateral or other fund or account,

enter into indemnification agreements, pledge or grant a security

interest in any assets or properties of the Corporation,  or  use

any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such amounts, at

such costs, and upon such other terms and conditions as the Board

of  Directors shall deem appropriate for the protection of any or

all such persons.

      Section  10.  Severability. If this  Article  XIII  or  any

portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of

competent  jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall  nevertheless

indemnify  each person as to whom the Corporation has  agreed  to

grant indemnity, as to liabilities and expenses, and amounts paid

or  to  be  paid  in settlement with respect to  any  proceeding,

including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the

full  extent permitted by any applicable portion of this  Article

XIII  that shall not have been invalidated and to the full extent

permitted by applicable law.

      Section  11.  Miscellaneous. (a) For the purposes  of  this

Article  XIII,  references  to  "the  Corporation"  include   all

constituent corporations absorbed in a consolidation  or  merger,

as  well  as the resulting or surviving corporation, so that  any

such  a  constituent  corporation or is or  was  serving  at  the

request  of such constituent corporation as a Director,  officer,

employee  or  agent  of another corporation,  partnership,  joint

venture,  trust  or  other enterprise, shall stand  in  the  same

position  under the provisions of this Article XIII with  respect

to  the resulting or surviving corporation as he would if he  had

served  the  resulting  or  surviving  corporation  in  the  same

capacity.

      (b) For purposes of this Article XIII, references to "other

enterprises" shall include employee benefit plans; references  to

"fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person  with

respect  to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving

at  the request of the Corporation" shall include any services as

a  Director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation  which

imposes  duties  on,  or  involves services  by,  such  Director,

officer,  employee or agent with respect to an  employee  benefit

plan,  its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who  acted

in  good  faith in a manner he reasonably believed to be  in  the

interest  of  the participants and beneficiaries of  an  employee

benefit  plan  shall be deemed to have acted  in  a  manner  "not

opposed to the best interests of the Corporation" as referred  to

in this Article XIII.

     (c) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided

by,  or  granted  pursuant to, this Article  Xlll  shall,  unless

otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, 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, executors  and

administrators of such a person.

with the written consent of the Member.  If a Member is permitted
to resign pursuant to this Section 19, an additional member shall
be admitted to the Company, subject to Section 20, upon its
execution of an instrument signifying its agreement to be bound
by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Such admission

business of the Company is continued in a manner permitted by the
Act, or (iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution under
Section 18-802 of the Act.

               (b)  Except to the extent set forth in Section
21(a) of this Agreement, the occurrence of any event that
terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company
shall not cause the dissolution of the Company, and, upon the
occurrence of such an event, the business of the Company shall
continue without dissolution.

               (c)  In the event of dissolution, the Company
shall conduct only such activities as are necessary to wind up
its affairs (including the sale of the assets of the Company in
an orderly manner), and the assets of the Company shall be
applied in the manner, and in the order of priority, set forth in
Section 18-804 of the Act.

               (d)  Except as set forth in this Section 21, the
Company shall have perpetual existence.

other person or entity, the Company is hereby authorized to merge

Directors, which shall consist of not less than one (1) nor
more than fifteen (15) directors, the exact number of
directors to be determined from time to time by resolution
adopted by affirmative vote of a majority of the entire
Board of Directors.  A director shall hold office until the

Vacancies occurring in the Board of Directors and newly

authorized number of directors may be filled by a majority
of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum,
or by a sole remaining director.  Any director elected to
fill a vacancy shall serve until the next succeeding annual
meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor shall
be elected and qualified.

     SIXTH:   In furtherance and not in limitation of the
powers conferred by statute, the Board of Directors is
expressly authorized to make, adopt, alter, amend, change or
repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation.  In addition to the
powers and authority hereinbefore or by statute expressly
conferred upon them, the directors are hereby empowered to
exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as
may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject,
nevertheless, to the provisions of the statutes of Delaware,
this Certificate of Incorporation, and any Bylaws adopted by
the stockholders; provided, however, that no Bylaws
hereafter adopted by the stockholders or otherwise shall
invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have
been valid if such Bylaws had not been adopted.

     SEVENTH:   Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the
Corporation to the contrary, no action required to be taken
or which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of
stockholders of the Corporation may be taken by written

that number of shares of stock of the Corporation that would
be required to take such action at a special or annual
meeting of stockholders where holders of all outstanding

action to be taken.  Special meetings of stockholders of the
Corporation may be called only by the Board of Directors,
the Chairman of the Board, the person, if any, designated by

liability of any director of this Corporation for any act or
omission of such director occurring prior to such repeal or
modification, or otherwise adversely affect any right or
protection of a director of the Corporation existing at the
time of such repeal or modification.

     B.  The Corporation shall indemnify its directors and
officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the
same exists or may hereafter be amended, and such right to
indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased
to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall
inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and
administrators: provided, however, that, except for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the
Corporation shall not be obligated to indemnify any director
or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or
administrators) in connection with a proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or
part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of
the Corporation.  The right to indemnification conferred in
this Section B of Article EIGHTH shall include the right to
be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in
defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding in
advance of its final disposition.

     The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time
to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to
indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to
employees and agents of the Corporation who are not
directors or officers similar to those conferred in this
Section B of Article EIGHTH to directors and officers of the
Corporation.

     The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of
expenses conferred in this Section B of Article EIGHTH shall
not be exclusive or any other right which any person may
have or hereafter acquire under this Certificate of
Incorporation, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

     Any repeal or modification of this Section B of Article
EIGHTH by the stockholders of the Corporation shall not
adversely affect any rights to indemnification and
advancement of expenses of a director or officer of the
Corporation existing pursuant to this Section B of Article
EIGHTH with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior
to such repeal or modification.

     C.  The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its
expense, to protect itself and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss,
whether or not the Corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or
loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware.  The Corporation may also obtain a letter of
credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve, trust,
escrow, cash collateral or other  fund or account, enter
into indemnification agreements, pledge or grant a security
interest in any assets or properties of the Corporation, or
use any other mechanism or arrangement whatsoever in such
amounts, at such costs, and upon such other terms and
conditions as the Board of Directors shall deem appropriate
for the protection of any or all such persons.

     NINTH:   Each of the directors of the Corporation may
be removed from office at any time, with or without cause,
but a director may be removed without cause only by the
affirmative vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds
of the outstanding stock of the Corporation then entitled to
vote for the election of such director.

     TENTH:   The name of the Incorporator is Christopher T.
Screen and his mailing address is 639 Loyola Avenue, 26th
Floor, New Orleans, LA  70113.

     ELEVENTH :   Meetings of stockholders may be held
within or without the State of Delaware, as the Bylaws may
provide.  The books of the Corporation may be kept (subject
to any provision contained in the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware) outside the State of Delaware at such
place or places as may be designated from time to time by
the Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

     TWELFTH:   The Corporation reserves the right to amend,
alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this
Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter
prescribed by statute, and all rights conferred upon
stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

     THE UNDERSIGNED, being the Incorporator hereinbefore
named, for the purpose of forming a corporation pursuant to
the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, do
make this Certificate hereby declaring and certifying that
this is my act and deed and the facts herein stated are
true, and accordingly have hereunto set my hand this
28th day of October, 1997

to indemnification, the Corporation shall not be obligated to
indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors
or administrators) in connection with a proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part
thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors of the
Corporation.  The right to indemnification conferred in this
Section B of Article EIGHTH shall include the right to be paid by
the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise
participating in any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition.

and  such  other duties as from time to time may be  assigned  by
the  Chief Executive Officer, the Chairman of the Board, the Vice
Chairman  of the Board, the President, the Board of Directors  or
the Executive Committee.

     The  Secretary shall also keep, or cause to be kept, a stock

owners thereof.

     SECTION 6. Treasurer. The Treasurer shall have charge of and
be   responsible   for  all  funds,  securities,   receipts   and
disbursements of the Corporation, and shall deposit, or cause  to
be deposited, in the name of the Corporation, all moneys or other
valuable  effects  in  such  banks,  trust  companies  or   other
depositories  as  shall, from time to time, be  selected  by  the
Board  of Directors; may endorse for collection on behalf of  the

render or cause to be rendered to the Chairman of the Board,  the
President  and  the  Board of Directors, whenever  requested,  an
account of the financial condition of the Corporation; may  sign,
with  the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman of the  Board,

incident to the office of a treasurer of a corporation, and  such
other  duties as from time to time may be assigned by  the  Chief
Executive  Officer, the Chairman of the Board, the Vice  Chairman
of  the  Board,  the  President, the Board of  Directors  or  the
Executive Committee.

     SECTION 7. Subordinate Officers. The Board of Directors  may
appoint  such  assistant  secretaries, assistant  treasurers  and
other  subordinate officers as it may deem desirable.  Each  such
officer  shall  hold office for such period, have such  authority

The  Board  of  Directors may, from time to time,  authorize  any
officer  to  appoint  and  remove  subordinate  officers  and  to

     SECTION  8. Vacancies. Absences. Any vacancy in any  of  the
above offices may be filled for the unexpired portion of the term
by  the  Board  of Directors, at any regular or special  meeting.
Except when the law requires the act of a particular officer, the
Board  of Directors or the Executive Committee whenever necessary
may,  in  the absence of any officer, designate any other officer
or  properly qualified employee, to perform the duties of the one
absent  for  the  time  being,  and such  designated  officer  or
employee shall have, when so acting, all the powers herein  given
to such absent officer.

     SECTION 9. Resignations. Any officer may resign at any  time
by  giving  written notice of such resignation to  the  Board  of
Directors,  the Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairman  of  the
Board, the President or the Secretary. Unless otherwise specified
therein, such resignation shall take effect upon written  receipt
thereof by the Board of Directors or by such officer.



                           ARTICLE VI.

                         CAPITAL STOCK.

     SECTION 1. Stock Certificates.  The certificates for  shares
of  the  stock  of  the Corporation shall be in  such  form,  not
inconsistent with the Certificate of Incorporation, as  shall  be
prepared or approved by the Board of Directors.  Every holder  of
stock  in the Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate
signed  by or in the name of the Corporation, by the Chairman  of
the  Board (if chief executive officer), the President or a  Vice
President,  and by the Treasurer or the Secretary certifying  the
number  of  shares  owned by him and the date of  issue,  and  no
certificate  shall be valid unless so signed.   All  certificates
shall be consecutively numbered and shall be entered in the books
of the Corporation as they are issued.

     All signatures on the certificate may be facsimile.  In case
any  officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose
facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have
ceased  to  be  such officer, transfer agent or registrar  before
such  certificate is issued, it may be issued by the  Corporation
with  the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer  agent
or registrar at the date of issue.

     SECTION  2.   Transfer  of Stock.   Upon  surrender  to  the
Corporation  or  the  transfer agent  of  the  Corporation  of  a
certificate  for  shares duly endorsed or accompanied  by  proper
evidence  of succession assignment or authority to transfer,  the
Corporation shall issue a new certificate to the person  entitled
thereto,  cancel  the old certificate and record the  transaction
upon its books.

     SECTION  3.      Registered Stockholders.   The  Corporation
shall  be entitled to treat the holder of record of any share  or
shares  of  stock as the holder in fact thereof and, accordingly,
shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim  to,
or  interest  in, such share or shares on the part of  any  other
person,  whether  or not it shall have express  or  other  notice
thereof,  save as expressly provided by the laws of the State  of
Delaware.

     SECTION  4.   Lost  Certificates.   Any  person  claiming  a
certificate  of  stock  to  be lost or destroyed  shall  make  an
affidavit  or affirmation of the fact and advertise the  same  in
such  manner as the Board of Directors may require, and the Board
of  Directors, in its discretion, may require the  owner  of  the
lost  or  destroyed certificate, or his legal representative,  to
give  the Corporation a bond in a sum sufficient, in the  opinion
of  the  Board of Directors, to indemnify the Corporation against
any  claim that may be made against it on account of the  alleged
loss  of  any  such certificate.  A new certificate of  the  same
tenor and for the same number of shares as the one alleged to  be
lost  or destroyed may be issued without requiring any bond when,
in the judgment of the Directors, it is proper so to do.

     SECTION 5.  Record Date.  In order that the Corporation  may
determine  the stockholders entitled to notice of or to  vote  at
any  meeting  of stockholders or any adjournment thereof,  or  to
express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting,
or  to  receive payment of any dividend or other distribution  or
allotment of any rights, or to exercise any rights in respect  of
any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of
any  other  lawful  action, the Board of Directors  may  fix,  in
advance,  a record date, which shall not be more than sixty  (60)
nor  less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting, nor
more  than  sixty  (60)  days  prior  to  any  other  action.   A
determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of  or
to  vote  at  a  meeting  of  stockholders  shall  apply  to  any
adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board  of
Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

                           ARTICLE VII

                       CHECKS, NOTES, ETC.

     SECTION 1. Execution of Checks, Notes, etc.   All checks and
drafts  on  the  Corporation's bank accounts  and  all  bills  of
exchange,  promissory notes, acceptances, obligations  and  other
instruments  for  the payment of money, shall be  signed  by  the
Chairman  of  the  Board, the Vice Chairman  of  the  Board,  the
President  or  any  Vice President and by the  Treasurer  or  any
Assistant Treasurer, or shall be signed by such other officer  or
officers, person or persons, as shall be thereunto authorized  by
the  Board of Directors, the Executive Committee, or any  officer
or  officers,  person or persons, as shall be designated  by  the
Board of Directors.

     SECTION  2.  Execution of Contracts, Assignments.  etc.  All
contracts,   agreements,  endorsements,  assignments,  transfers,
stock  powers, and other instruments shall be signed by the Chief
Executive  Officer, the Chairman of the Board, the Vice  Chairman
of  the  Board, the President or any Vice President or  shall  be
signed  by such officer or officers, person or persons, as  shall
be  thereunto  authorized  by  the  Board  of  Directors  or  the
Executive  Committee or by the Chief Executive Officer,  Chairman
of  the  Board, the President, or any officer or officers, person
or persons, as shall be designated by the Board of Directors.

     SECTION  3.  Voting of Stock and Execution of  Proxies.  The
Chairman  of  the  Board, the Vice Chairman  of  the  Board,  the
President  or  a  Vice  President or any  other  officer  of  the
Corporation  designated by the Board of Directors, the  Executive
Committee, the Chairman of the Board, or the President, shall  be
authorized to attend any meeting of the stockholders of any other
corporation in which the Corporation is an owner of stock and  to
vote such stock upon all matters coming before such meeting.  The
Chairman  of  the Board, the Vice Chairman of the  Board  or  the
President  or  any Vice President may sign and issue  proxies  to
vote  shares  of  stock  of  other  corporations  owned  by   the
Corporation.

                          ARTICLE VIII.

                            WAIVERS.

     Whenever under the provisions of these Bylaws or of any  law
the  stockholders or Directors are authorized to hold any meeting
or  take  any  action  after notice or after  the  lapse  of  any
prescribed period of time, such meeting or action may be held  or
taken  without notice and without such lapse of time, on  written
waiver  of  such notice and lapse of time signed by every  person
entitled to such notice or by his attorney or attorneys thereunto
authorized, either before or after the meeting or action to which
such notice relates.


                           ARTICLE IX.

                              SEAL.

     The  seal  of  the Corporation shall show the  year  of  its
incorporation and shall be in such form as the Board of Directors
shall  prescribe.  The seal on any corporate obligation  for  the
payment of money may be a facsimile, engraved or printed.

                           ARTICLE X.

                        INDEMNIFICATION.

     SECTION   1.  Power  to  Indemnify  in  Actions,  Suits   or
Proceedings  other  Than  Those  by  or  in  the  Right  of   the
Corporation.  Subject  to  Section  3  of  this  Article  X   the
Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a  party  or
is  threatened  to  be  made  a party  to  or  witness  or  other
participant in, 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
or officer of the Corporation, or is or was a director or officer
of the Corporation serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director,  officer,  employee or agent  of  another  corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan 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,  had no reasonable cause to believe his  conduct  was
unlawful.  The  termination of any action, suit or proceeding  by
judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or 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  and  in  a
manner  which 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
that his conduct was unlawful.

     SECTION   2.  Power  to  Indemnify  in  Actions,  Suits   or
Proceedings  by  or in the Right of the Corporation.  Subject  to
Section 3 of this Article X, 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 or officer of
the  Corporation,  or  is or was a director  or  officer  of  the
Corporation  serving  at  the request of  the  Corporation  as  a
director,  officer,  employee or agent  of  another  corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan 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
which  such person shall have been adjudged to be liable  to  the
Corporation  unless  and only to the extent  that  the  Court  of
Chancery  or  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 the circumstances of  the  case,
such  person  is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity  for
such  expenses  which the Court of Chancery or such  other  court
shall deem proper.

     SECTION    3.   Authorization   of   Indemnification.    Any
indemnification under this Article X (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
director or officer is proper in the circumstances because he has
met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1  or
Section  2  of  this  Article  X,  as  the  case  may  be.   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  a
quorum is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, by majority vote
of  a  committee  duly designated by the Board of  Directors  (in
which  directors  who  are  parties may  participate)  consisting
solely  of two or more directors not at the time parties to  such
action,  suit  or proceeding, or (iii) if such a  quorum  is  not
obtainable,  or,  even if obtainable, a quorum  of  disinterested
directors  so directs, by independent legal counsel in a  written
opinion,  or  (iv)  by the stockholders. To the extent,  however,
that a director or officer of the Corporation has been successful
on  the  merits  or otherwise in defense of any action,  suit  or
proceeding described above, or in defense of any claim, issue  or
matter   therein,  he  shall  be  indemnified  against   expenses
(including  attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred  by
him   in   connection  therewith,  without   the   necessity   of
authorization in the specific case.

     Any  indemnification  under this Article  X  shall  be  made
promptly  and,  in  any event, to the extent practicable,  within
sixty  days of receipt by the Corporation of the written  request
of the person to be indemnified.

     SECTION  4.  Good  Faith  Defined.  For  purposes   of   any
determination under Section 3 of this Article X, a  person  shall
be  deemed  to  have  acted in good faith  and  in  a  manner  he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of  the  Corporation, or, with respect to any criminal action  or
proceeding,  to  have  had no reasonable  cause  to  believe  his
conduct  was unlawful, if his action is based on the  records  or
books of account of the Corporation or another enterprise, or  on
information supplied to him by the officers of the Corporation or
another  enterprise  in the course of their  duties,  or  on  the
advice of legal counsel for the Corporation or another enterprise
or  on  information  or  records given or  reports  made  to  the
Corporation  or  another enterprise by an  independent  certified
public  accountant  or by an appraiser or other  expert  selected
with  reasonable  care by the Corporation or another  enterprise.
The  term ''another enterprise'' as used in this Section 4  shall
mean  any  other  corporation or any partnership, joint  venture,
trust,  employee benefit plan or other enterprise of  which  such
person is or was serving at the request of the Corporation  as  a
director,  officer,  employee or agent. The  provisions  of  this
Section 4 shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in  any
way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have met
the  applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1 or  2
of this Article X, as the case may be.

     SECTION  5. Indemnification by a Court. Notwithstanding  any
contrary  determination in the specific case under Section  3  of
this Article and notwithstanding the absence of any determination
thereunder,  any director or officer may apply to  any  court  of
competent   jurisdiction   in   the   State   of   Delaware   for
indemnification   to  the  extent  otherwise  permissible   under
Sections  1  and  2  of  this  Article  X.  The  basis  of   such
indemnification by a court shall be a determination by such court
that indemnification of the director or officer is proper in  the
circumstances  because  he has met the  applicable  standards  of
conduct  set forth in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article X,  as  the
case may be. Neither a contrary determination in the specify case
under  Section  3  of  this Article X  nor  the  absence  of  any
determination  thereunder shall be a defense to such  application
or  create  a  presumption that the director or  officer  seeking
indemnification has not met any applicable standard  of  conduct.
Notice  of any application for indemnification pursuant  to  this
Section  5  shall be given to the Corporation promptly  upon  the
filing of such application.  If successful, in whole or in  part,
the  director  or officer seeking indemnification shall  also  be
entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such application.

     SECTION 6. Expenses Payable in Advance. Expenses incurred by
a  director or officer in defending or investigating a threatened
or  pending  action,  suit or proceeding shall  be  paid  by  the
Corporation  in advance of the final disposition of such  action,
suit  or  proceeding within fourteen days after  receipt  by  the
Corporation of a written statement from such director or  officer
requesting such an advancement, together with an undertaking,  if
required  by law at the time of such advance, by or on behalf  of
such  director  or  officer to repay  such  amount  if  it  shall
ultimately  be  determined  that  he  is  not  entitled   to   be
indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article X.

     SECTION 7. Nonexclusivity of Indemnification and Advancement
of  Expenses.  The  indemnification and advancement  of  expenses
provided  by or granted pursuant to this Article X shall  not  be
deemed  exclusive  of  any other rights to  which  those  seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled  under
any   By-law,  agreement,  contract,  vote  of  stockholders   or
disinterested  directors or pursuant to the direction  (howsoever
embodied)  of  any court of competent jurisdiction or  otherwise,
both  as to action taken (or omitted to be taken) in his official
capacity  and  as  to action taken (or omitted to  be  taken)  in
another  capacity while holding such office, it being the  policy
of  the Corporation that indemnification of the persons specified
in  Sections  1  and 2 of this Article X shall  be  made  to  the
fullest extent permitted by law. The provisions of this Article X
shall not be deemed to preclude the indemnification of any person
who  is  not specified in Sections 1 or 2 of this Article  X  but
whom  the  Corporation has the power or obligation  to  indemnify
under  the provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware, or otherwise.

     SECTION   8.   Insurance.  The  Corporation   may   maintain
insurance,  at  its expense, to protect itself and any  director,
officer,  employee  or  agent  of  the  Corporation  or   another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee  benefit
plan  or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss,
whether  or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify
such  person  against such expense, liability or loss  under  the
General  Corporation  Law  of  the  State  of  Delaware  or   the
provisions of this Article X. The Corporation may also  obtain  a
letter  of credit, act as self-insurer, create a reserve,  trust,
escrow,  cash  collateral or other fund or  account,  enter  into
indemnification  agreements, pledge or grant a security  interest
in  any assets or properties of the Corporation, or use any other
mechanism  or  arrangement whatsoever in such  amounts,  at  such
costs,  and upon such other terms and conditions as the Board  of
Directors shall deem appropriate for the protection of any or all
such persons.

     SECTION 9. Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article
X, references to ''the Corporation" shall include, in addition to
the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including
any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation  or
merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have
had  power and authority to indemnify its directors and officers,
so  that  any person who is or was a director or officer of  such
constituent  corporation, or is or was a director or  officer  of
such  constituent  corporation serving at  the  request  of  such
constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent
of   another  corporation,  partnership,  joint  venture,  trust,
employee  benefit plan or other enterprise, shall  stand  in  the
same position under the provisions of this Article X with respect
to  the resulting or surviving corporation as he would have  with
respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence
had  continued.  For purposes of this Article  X,  references  to
"fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person  with
respect  to an employee benefit plan; and references to  "serving
at  the request of the Corporation'' shall include any service as
a director or officer of the Corporation which imposes duties on,
or involves services by, such director or officer with respect to
an  employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and
a  person  who acted in good faith and in a manner he  reasonably
believed   to  be  in  the  interest  of  the  participants   and
beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have
acted  in  a  manner "not opposed to the best  interests  of  the
Corporation" as referred to in this Article X.

     SECTION  10. Survival of Indemnification and Advancement  of
Expenses.   The  indemnification  and  advancement  of   expenses
provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Article X shall, unless
otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to  a
person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure
to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such
a person.

     SECTION  11.  Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding
anything  contained in this Article to the contrary,  except  for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification (which shall  be
governed  by  Section  5 hereof), the Corporation  shall  not  be
obligated to indemnify any director or officer in connection with
a  proceeding  (or part thereof) initiated by such person  unless
such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board  of
Directors of the Corporation.

     SECTION  12.  Indemnification of Employees and  Agents.  The
Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time  to  time  by
the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and  to
the  advancement  of  expenses to employees  and  agents  of  the
Corporation  similar  to those conferred in  this  Article  X  to
directors and officers of the Corporation.

     SECTION   13.   Repeal  or  Modification.  All   rights   to
indemnification and to advancement of expenses under this Article
X  shall  be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation  and
each  director and officer who serves or has served in  any  such
capacity,  and  each other person as to whom the Corporation  has
agreed  to grant indemnity at any time while this Article  is  in
effect. Any repeal or modification of this Article or any  repeal
or modification of relevant provisions of the General Corporation
Law  of  the State of Delaware or any other applicable law  shall
not  in  any  way  diminish any right to  indemnification  or  to
advancement of expenses of such director, officer or other person
as  to whom the Corporation has agreed to grant indemnity, or the
obligations  of  the  Corporation arising  hereunder  for  claims
relating   to   matters  occurring  prior  to  such   repeal   or
modification.

     SECTION  14. Separability. If this Article X or any  portion
hereof  shall  be  invalidated on any  ground  by  any  court  of
competent  jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall  nevertheless
indemnify each director and officer, and each employee, agent and
other  person  as  to whom the Corporation has  agreed  to  grant
indemnity to the full extent permitted by any applicable  portion
of this Article X that shall not have been invalidated and to the
full extent permitted by applicable law.

                           ARTICLE XI.

                           AMENDMENTS.

     SECTION  1.  Amendments.   Subject  to  the  provisions   of
applicable  law  and  of the Certificate of Incorporation,  these
Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed and new Bylaws adopted
either  (1)  at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders
at  which a quorum is present or represented, provided notice  of
the proposed amendment shall have been contained in the notice of
meeting,  or  (2)  by the Board of Directors at  any  regular  or
special meeting at which a quorum is present, provided notice  of
the proposed amendment shall have been given.
