BANK ONE TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION,
TRUSTEE
BY /s/ STEVEN M. WAGNER

DIRECTOR
<PAGE>
EXHIBIT 1
A COPY OF THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION OF THE
TRUSTEE NOW IN EFFECT
AMENDED AND RESTATED
ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
OF
BANK ONE TRUST COMPANY, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
FIRST. The title of this Association shall be BANK ONE TRUST COMPANY, National
Association.
SECOND. The main office of the Association shall be in the City of Columbus,
County of Franklin, State of Ohio.
The business of the Association will be limited to the fiduciary powers and the
support of activities incidental to the exercise of those powers. The
Association will not expand or alter its business beyond that stated in this
article without the prior approval of the Comptroller of the Currency.
THIRD. The Board of Directors of this Association shall consist of not less than
five nor more than twenty-five persons, the exact number to be fixed and
determined from time to time by resolution of a majority of the full Board of
Directors or by resolution of a majority of the shareholders at any annual or
special meeting thereof. Each director shall own common or preferred stock of
the Association, or of a holding company owning the Association, with an
aggregate par, fair market or equity value of not less than $1,000, as of either
(i) the date of purchase, (ii) the date the person became a director, or (iii)
the date of that person's most recent election to the Board of Directors,
whichever is more recent. Any combination of common or preferred stock of the
Association or holding company may be used.
Any vacancy in the Board of Directors may be filled by action of a majority of
the remaining directors between meetings of shareholders. The Board of Directors
may not increase the number of directors between meetings of shareholders to a
number which: (1) exceeds by more than two the number of directors last elected
by shareholders where the number was 15 or less; or (2) exceeds by more than
four the number of directors last elected by shareholders where the number was
16 or more, but in no event shall the number of directors exceed 25.
Terms of directors, including directors selected to fill vacancies, shall expire
at the next regular meeting of shareholders at which directors are elected,
unless the directors resign or are removed from office.
Despite the expiration of a director's term, the director shall continue to
serve until his or her successor is elected and qualifies or until there is a
decrease in the number of directors and his or her position is eliminated.
<PAGE>
Honorary or advisory members of the Board of Directors, without voting power or
power of final decision in matters concerning the business of the Association,
may be appointed by resolution of a majority of the full Board of Directors, or
by resolution of shareholders at any annual or special meeting. Honorary or
advisory directors shall not be counted to determine the number of directors of
the Association or the presence of a quorum in connection with any board action,
and shall not be required to own qualifying shares.
FOURTH. There shall be an annual meeting of the shareholders to elect directors
and transact whatever other business may be brought before the meeting. It shall
be held at the main office or any other convenient place the Board of Directors
may designate, on the day of each year specified therefor in the Bylaws or, if
that day falls on a legal holiday in the state in which the Association is
located, on the next following banking day. If no election is held on the day
fixed or in the event of a legal holiday on the following banking day, an
election may be held on any subsequent day within 60 days of the day fixed, to
be designated by the Board of Directors or, if the directors fail to fix the
day, by shareholders representing two-thirds of the shares issued and
outstanding. In all cases at least 10 days advance notice of the meeting shall
be given to the shareholders by first class mail.
In all elections of directors, the number of votes each common shareholder may
cast will be determined by multiplying the number of shares such shareholder
owns by the number of directors to be elected. Those votes may be cumulated and
cast for a single candidate or may be distributed among two or more candidates
in the manner selected by the shareholder. On all other questions, each common
shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such
shareholder. If the issuance of preferred stock with voting rights has been
authorized by a vote of shareholders owning a majority of the common stock of
the association, preferred shareholders will have cumulative voting rights and
will be included within the same class as common shareholders, for purposes of
elections of directors.
A director may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the Board of
Directors, its chairperson, or to the Association, which resignation shall be
effective when the notice is delivered unless the notice specifies a later
effective date.
A director may be removed by shareholders at a meeting called to remove him or
her, when notice of the meeting stating that the purpose or one of the purposes
is to remove him or her is provided, if there is a failure to fulfill one of the
affirmative requirements for qualification, or for cause, provided, however,
that a director may not be removed if the number of votes sufficient to elect
him or her under cumulative voting is voted against his or her removal.
FIFTH. The authorized amount of capital stock of this Association shall be
eighty thousand shares of common stock of the par value of ten dollars ($10.00)
each; but said capital stock may be increased or decreased from time to time,
according to the provisions of the laws of the United States.
No holder of shares of the capital stock of any class of the Association shall
have any preemptive or preferential right of subscription to any shares of any
class of stock of the Association, whether now or hereafter authorized, or to
any obligations convertible into stock of the Association, issued or sold, nor
any right of subscription to any thereof other than such, if any, as the Board
of Directors, in its discretion, may from time to time
<PAGE>
determine and at such price as the Board of Directors may from time to time fix.
Unless otherwise specified in the Articles of Association or required by law,
(1) all matters requiring shareholder action, including amendments to the
Articles of Association, must be approved by shareholders owning a majority
voting interest in the outstanding voting stock, and (2) each shareholder shall
be entitled to one vote per share.
Unless otherwise specified in the Articles of Association or required by law,
all shares of voting stock shall be voted together as a class on any matters
requiring shareholder approval. If a proposed amendment would affect two or more
classes or series in the same or a substantially similar way, all the classes or
series so affected must vote together as a single voting group on the proposed
amendment.
Shares of the same class or series may be issued as a dividend on a pro rata
basis and without consideration. Shares of another class or series may be issued
as share dividends in respect of a class or series of stock if approved by a
majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the class or series to be issued
unless there are no outstanding shares of the class or series to be issued.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board of Directors, the record date for
determining shareholders entitled to a share dividend shall be the date the
Board of Directors authorizes the share dividend.
Unless otherwise provided in the Bylaws, the record date for determining
shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting is the close of
business on the day before the first notice is mailed or otherwise sent to the
shareholders, provided that in no event may a record date be more than 70 days
before the meeting.
If a shareholder is entitled to fractional shares pursuant to preemptive rights,
a stock dividend, consolidation or merger, reverse stock split or otherwise, the
Association may: (a) issue fractional shares or; (b) in lieu of the issuance of
fractional shares, issue script or warrants entitling the holder to receive a
full share upon surrendering enough script or warrants to equal a full share;
(c) if there is an established and active market in the Association's stock,
make reasonable arrangements to provide the shareholder with an opportunity to
realize a fair price through sale of the fraction, or purchase of the additional
fraction required for a full share; (d) remit the cash equivalent of the
fraction to the shareholder; or (e) sell full shares representing all the
fractions at public auction or to the highest bidder after having solicited and
received sealed bids from at least three licensed stock brokers, and distribute
the proceeds pro rata to shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to the
fractional shares. The holder of a fractional share is entitled to exercise the
rights for shareholder, including the right to vote, to receive dividends, and
to participate in the assets of the Association upon liquidation, in proportion
to the fractional interest. The holder of script or warrants is not entitled to
any of these rights unless the script or warrants explicitly provide for such
rights. The script or warrants may be subject to such additional conditions as:
(1) that the script or warrants will become void if not exchanged for full
shares before a specified date; and (2) that the shares for which the script or
warrants are exchangeable may be sold at the option of the Association and the
proceeds paid to scriptholders.
<PAGE>
The Association, at any time and from time to time, may authorize and issue debt
obligations, whether or not subordinated, without the approval of the
shareholders. Obligations classified as debt, whether or not subordinated, which
may be issued by the Association without the approval of shareholders, do not
carry voting rights on any issue, including an increase or decrease in the
aggregate number of the securities, or the exchange or reclassification of all
or part of securities into securities of another class or series.
SIXTH. The Board of Directors shall appoint one of its members president of this
Association, and one of its members chairperson of the board and shall have the
power to appoint one or more vice presidents, a secretary who shall keep minutes
of the directors' and shareholders' meetings and be responsible for
authenticating the records of the Association, and such other officers and
employees as may be required to transact the business of this Association. A
duly appointed officer may appoint one or more officers or assistant officers if
authorized by the Board of Directors in accordance with the Bylaws. The Board of
Directors shall have the power to:
(1) Define the duties of the officers, employees, and agents of the
Association.
(2) Delegate the performance of its duties, but not the responsibility for
its duties, to the officers, employees, and agents of the Association.
(3) Fix the compensation and enter into employment contracts with its
officers and employees upon reasonable terms and conditions consistent
with applicable law.
(4) Dismiss officers and employees.
(5) Require bonds from officers and employees and to fix the penalty
thereof.
(6) Ratify written policies authorized by the Association's management or
committees of the board.
(7) Regulate the manner in which any increase or decrease of the capital of
the Association shall be made, provided that nothing herein shall
restrict the power of shareholders to increase or decrease the capital
of the association in accordance with law, and nothing shall raise or
lower from two-thirds the percentage for shareholder approval to
increase or reduce the capital.
(8) Manage and administer the business and affairs of the Association.
(9) Adopt initial Bylaws, not inconsistent with law or the Articles of
Association, for managing the business and regulating the affairs of
the Association.
(10) Amend or repeal Bylaws, except to the extent that the Articles of
Association reserve this power in whole or in part to shareholders.
(11) Make contracts.
(12) Generally perform all acts that are legal for a Board of Directors to
perform.
<PAGE>
SEVENTH. The Board of Directors shall have the power to change the location of
the main office of this Association to any other place within the limits of the
City of Columbus, State of Ohio, without the approval of the shareholders; and
shall have the power to change the location of the main office of this
Association to any other place outside the limits of the City of Columbus, State
of Ohio, but not more than thirty miles beyond such limits, with the affirmative
vote of shareholders owning two-thirds of the stock of the Association, subject
to receipt of a certificate of approval from the Comptroller of the Currency.
The Board of Directors shall have the power to establish or change the location
of any branch or branches of the Association to any other location permitted
under applicable law without the approval of the shareholders, subject to
approval by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. The Board of
Directors shall have the power to establish or change the location of any
nonbranch office or facility of the Association without the approval of the
shareholders.
EIGHTH. The corporate existence of this Association shall continue until
termination according to the laws of the United States.
NINTH. The Board of Directors of this Association, or any shareholders owning,
in the aggregate, not less than 20 percent of the stock of this Association, may
call a special meeting of shareholders at any time. Unless otherwise provided by
the Bylaws or the laws of the United States, or waived by shareholders, a notice
of the time, place, and purpose of every annual and special meeting of the
shareholders shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed at
least 10, and no more than 60, days prior to the date of the meeting to each
shareholder of record at his/her address as shown upon the books of this
Association. Unless otherwise provided by the Bylaws, any action requiring
approval of shareholders must be effected at a duly called annual or special
meeting.
TENTH. The Association shall provide indemnification as set forth below:
Every person who is or was a Director, officer or employee of the Association or
of any other corporation which he served as a Director, officer or employee at
the request of the Association as part of his regularly assigned duties may be
indemnified by the Association in accordance with the provisions of this Article
against all liability (including, without limitation, judgments, fines,
penalties, and settlements) and all reasonable expenses (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees and investigative expenses) that may be incurred or
paid by him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal or administrative (all referred to hereafter in this Article as
"Claims") or in connection with any appeal relating thereto in which he may
become involved as a party or otherwise or with which he may be threatened by
reason of his being or having been a Director, officer or employee of the
Association or such other corporation, or by reason of any action taken or
omitted by him in his capacity as such Director, officer or employee, whether or
not he continues to be such at the time such liability or expenses are incurred;
PROVIDED that nothing contained in this Article shall be construed to permit
indemnification of any such person who is adjudged guilty of, or liable for,
willful misconduct, gross neglect of duty or criminal acts, unless, at the time
such indemnification is sought, such indemnification in such instance is
permissible under applicable law and regulations, including published rulings of
the Comptroller of the Currency or other appropriate
<PAGE>
supervisory or regulatory authority; and PROVIDED FURTHER that there shall be no
indemnification of Directors, officers, or employees against expenses,
penalties, or other payments incurred in an administrative proceeding or action
instituted by an appropriate regulatory agency which proceeding or action
results in a final order assessing civil money penalties or requiring
affirmative action by an individual or individuals in the form of payments to
the Association.
Every person who may be indemnified under the provisions of this Article and who
has been wholly successful on the merits with respect to any Claim shall be
entitled to indemnification as of right. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, any indemnification under this Article shall be at the sole discretion
of the Board of Directors and shall be made only if the Board of Directors or
the Executive Committee acting by a quorum consisting of Directors who are not
parties to such Claim shall find or if independent legal counsel (who may be the
regular counsel of the Association) selected by the Board of Directors or
Executive Committee whether or not a disinterested quorum exists shall render
their opinion that in view of all of the circumstances then surrounding the
Claim, such indemnification is equitable and in the best interests of the
Association. Among the circumstances to be taken into consideration in arriving
at such a finding or opinion is the existence or non-existence of a contract of
insurance or indemnity under which the Association would be wholly or partially
reimbursed for such indemnification, but the existence or non-existence of such
insurance is not the sole circumstance to be considered nor shall it be wholly
determinative of whether such indemnification shall be made. In addition to such
finding or opinion, no indemnification under this Article shall be made unless
the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee acting by a quorum consisting
of Directors who are not parties to such Claim shall find or if independent
legal counsel (who may be the regular counsel of the Association) selected by
the Board of Directors or Executive Committee whether or not a disinterested
quorum exists shall render their opinion that the Directors, officer or employee
acted in good faith in what he reasonably believed to be the best interests of
the Association or such other corporation and further in the case of any
criminal action or proceeding, that the Director, officer or employee reasonably
believed his conduct to be lawful. Determination of any Claim by judgment
adverse to a Director, officer or employee by settlement with or without Court
approval or conviction upon a plea of guilty or of NOLO CONTENDERE or its
equivalent shall not create a presumption that a Director, officer or employee
failed to meet the standards of conduct set forth in this Article. Expenses
incurred with respect to any Claim may be advanced by the Association prior to
the final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking satisfactory to the
Association by or on behalf of the recipient to repay such amount unless it is
ultimately determined that he is entitled to indemnification under this Article.
The rights of indemnification provided in this Article shall be in addition to
any rights to which any Director, officer or employee may otherwise be entitled
by contract or as a matter of law. Every person who shall act as a Director,
officer or employee of this Association shall be conclusively presumed to be
doing so in reliance upon the right of indemnification provided for in this
Article.
<PAGE>
ELEVENTH. These Articles of Association may be amended at any regular or special
meeting of the shareholders by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the stock of this Association, unless the vote of the holders of a greater
amount of stock is required by law, and in that case by the vote of the holders
of such greater amount. The Association's Board of Directors may propose one or
more amendments to the Articles of Association for submission to the
shareholders.

of the meeting. The secretary of the meeting of shareholders shall cause the
returns made by the judges of election and other proceedings to be recorded in

three shareholders to be judges of the election, who shall hold and conduct the
same, and who shall, after the election has been held, notify, in writing over
their signatures, the secretary of the meeting of shareholders of the result
thereof and the names of the Directors elected; provided, however, that upon
failure for any reason of any judge or judges of election, so appointed by the
Directors, to serve, the presiding officer of the meeting shall appoint other
shareholders or their proxies to fill the vacancies. The judges of election, at
the request of the chairman of the meeting, shall act as tellers of any other
vote by ballot taken at such meeting, and shall notify, in writing over their
signature, the secretary of the Board of Directors of the result thereof.
SECTION 1.05. PROXIES. In all elections of Directors, each shareholder of
record, who is qualified to vote under the provisions of Federal Law, shall have
the right to vote the number of shares of record in such shareholder's name for
as many persons as there are Directors to be elected, or to cumulate such shares
as provided by Federal Law. In deciding all other questions at meetings of
shareholders, each shareholder shall be entitled to one vote on each share of
stock of record in such shareholder's name. Shareholders may vote by proxy duly
authorized in writing. All proxies used at the annual meeting shall be secured

until their successors are elected and qualified. Any vacancy in the Board shall
be filled by
<PAGE>
appointment of the remaining Directors, and any Director so appointed shall hold
office until the next election.
SECTION 2.03. ORGANIZATION MEETING. The Directors elected by the shareholders
shall meet for organization of the new Board of Directors at the time and place
fixed by the presiding officer of the annual meeting. If at the time fixed for
such meeting there is no quorum present, the Directors in attendance may adjourn
from time to time until a quorum is obtained. A majority of the number of
Directors elected by the shareholders shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business.
SECTION 2.04. REGULAR MEETINGS. The regular meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be held at such date, time and place as the Board may previously
designate, or should the Board fail to so designate, at such date, time and
place as the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, or President may
fix. Whenever a quorum is not present, the Directors in attendance shall adjourn
the meeting to a time not later than the date fixed by the By-Laws for the next
succeeding regular meeting of the Board. Members of the Board of Directors may
participate in such meetings through use of conference telephone or similar
communications equipment, so long as all members participating in such meetings
can hear one another.
SECTION 2.05. SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the Board of Directors shall
be held at the call of the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, or
President, or at the request of two or more Directors. Any special meeting may
be held at such place and at such time as may be fixed in the call. Written or
oral notice shall be given to each Director not later than the day next
preceding the day on which the special meeting is to be held, which notice may
be waived in writing. The presence of a Director at any meeting of the Board of
Directors shall be deemed a waiver of notice thereof by such Director. Whenever
a quorum is not present, the Directors in attendance shall adjourn the special
meeting from day to day until a quorum is obtained. Members of the Board of
Directors may participate in such meetings through use of conference telephone
or similar communications equipment, so long as all members participating in
such meetings can hear one another.
SECTION 2.06. QUORUM. A majority of the Directors shall constitute a quorum at
any meeting, except when otherwise provided by law; but a lesser number may
adjourn any meeting, from time-to-time, and the meeting may be held, as
adjourned, without further notice. When, however, less than a quorum as herein
defined, but at least one-third and not less than two of the authorized number
of Directors are present at a meeting of the Directors, business of the Bank may
be transacted and matters before the Board approved or disapproved by the
unanimous vote of the Directors present.
SECTION 2.07. COMPENSATION. Each member of the Board of Directors shall receive
such fees for attendance at Board and Board committee meetings and such fees for
service as a Director, irrespective of meeting attendance, as from time to time
are fixed by resolution of the Board; provided, however, that payment hereunder
shall not be made to a Director for meetings attended and/or Board service which
are not for the Bank's sole
<PAGE>
benefit and which are concurrent and duplicative with meetings attended or Board
service for an affiliate of the Bank for which the Director receives payment;
and provided further that fees hereunder shall not be paid in the case of any
Director in the regular employment of the Bank or of one of its affiliates. Each
