kept open at the time and place of the meeting and shall be
subject to the inspection of any stockholder during the whole
time of the meeting for the purposes of the meeting.  The

decide all questions touching upon the qualification of voters,
and validity of proxies and the acceptance and rejection of
votes.  In case of a tie vote by the inspectors on any questions,
the Chairman shall decide.

time before it is voted either by written notice filed with the
Secretary or the acting secretary of the meeting or by oral
notice given by the stockholder to the presiding officer during
the meeting.  The presence of a stockholder who has filed his
proxy shall not of itself constitute a revocation.  No proxy

Directors shall have the power and authority to make rules
establishing presumptions as to the validity and sufficiency of

arrival objects to holding the meeting or transacting business at
the meeting and does not thereafter vote for or assent to action
taken at the meeting.  Neither the business to be transacted at

to exist has been held by the full Board of Directors of the Company
at which hearing the director or directors proposed for removal shall
be given an adequate opportunity for preparation and attendance in
person (together with representation by counsel); provided, however,
that such hearing shall be held only after written notice has been
given to said director or directors proposed for removal specifying
the matters of cause claimed to exist.  The conclusions of said
hearing shall be reported by the Board of Directors in writing
accompanying the notice of the special stockholders' meeting sent
to each stockholder eligible to vote at said special meeting.

the case may be.

          2.13.  Retirement.  Each Director shall be retired at

by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors.  Upon such
retirement a Director may take the status of a Director Emeritus.

resolution or resolutions, shall have and may exercise the powers
of the Board of Directors in the management of the business and
affairs of the corporation.  Such committees shall have such

such certificate may, nevertheless, be adopted and issued and
<PAGE>
delivered by the Company as though the officer who signed such

thereon, had not ceased to be such officer with the same effect
as if he were such office at the date of its issue.

certificate, or his legal representative, to give the Company a bond,

determination of stockholders, such date in any case to be not more than
seventy (70) days and, in case of a meeting of stockholders not less than
ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring
such determination of stockholders is to be taken.  When a determination
