majority (even if that be only a single director) of the remaining
directors theretofore elected by the holders of the class of
capital stock which elected the directors whose office shall have
become vacant.  If any new directorship is created by increase in
the number of directors, a majority of the directors then in office

so chosen to fill a vacancy or a new directorship shall terminate
upon the election and qualification of directors at any meeting of
stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors.

a fee, as fixed by the Chairman of the Board, for their services,
together with expenses for attendance at regular or special

certificates will not be valid until so registered.

                              Ex. 3.2-7

     In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed, or

for shares of capital stock of the Company shall cease to be such
officer, whether because of death, resignation or otherwise, before
such certificate shall have been delivered by the Company, such

the Company and may be issued and delivered as though the person
who signed such certificate or whose facsimile signature shall have
been used thereon had not ceased to be such officer.

     Section 4.  Designations, Preferences, etc. on Certificates
for Stock.  Certificates for shares of capital stock of the Company
shall state on the face or back thereof that the Company will
furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests (which

transfer agent) a statement of the designations, preferences and
relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each
class of stock or series thereof which the Company is authorized to
issue and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such
preferences and/or rights.

     Section 5.  Stock Ledger.  A record shall be kept by the
Secretary or by any other officer, employee or agent designated by

on the books of the Company shall be deemed the owner thereof for
all purposes as regards the Company; provided, however, that
whenever any transfer of shares shall be made for collateral
security, and not absolutely, such fact, if known to the Secretary
or the transfer agent making such transfer, shall be so expressed
in the entry of transfer.

stockholders for any purpose.  In lieu of such closing of the stock
transfer books, the board may fix in advance a date, not exceeding
60 days preceding the date of any meeting of stockholders, or the
date for the payment of any dividend, or the date for the allotment
of rights, or the date when any change or conversion or exchange of
capital 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, such
meeting, and any adjournment thereof, or to receive payment of any
such dividend, or to receive any such allotment of rights, or to
exercise the rights in

                              Ex. 3.2-8
<PAGE>
respect of any such change, conversion, or exchange of capital stock
or to give such consent, as the case may be, notwithstanding any
transfer of any stock on the books of the Company after any record
date so fixed.

declare dividends upon the capital stock of the Company as and when
they deem expedient.  Dividends may be paid in cash, in property,
or in shares of capital stock of the Company, subject to the
provisions of the certificate of incorporation.  Before declaring
any dividend there may be set apart out of any funds of the Company
available for dividends such sum or sums as the directors from time
to time in their discretion deem proper for working capital or as
a reserve fund to meet contingencies or for equalizing dividends or
for such other purposes as the directors shall deem conducive to
the interests of the Company.


                          ARTICLE VIII.

             Indemnification of Officers, Directors,
                 Employees and Agents; Insurance.

     Section 1.  Indemnification.

     (a)  The Company may 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, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (including an action by
or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or
was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys'

                              Ex. 3.2-9
<PAGE>
fees) and, except for an action by or in the right of the Company,
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 Company,
and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  Except for an
action by or in the right of the Company, 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 Company, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause
to believe that his conduct was unlawful.  With respect to an
action by or in the right of the Company, 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 Company unless
and only to the extent that the Delaware 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 such court shall deem proper.

     (b)  To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent
of the Company has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsection
(a) 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.

     (c)  Any indemnification under subsection (a) (unless ordered
by a court) shall be made by the Company 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 set forth in
subsection (a).  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 a quorum of
disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in
a written opinion, or (iii) by the stockholders.

     (d)  Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal
action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the Company in advance of
the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as
authorized by the board of directors in the manner provided in
subsection (c) upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the director, officer, employee or agent to repay such amount
unless it shall ultimately be determined that he is entitled to be
indemnified by the Company as authorized in this section.

     (e)  The indemnification provided by this Article shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking
indemnification may be entitled under any agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
action in their official capacities and as to action in other
capacities while holding such offices, 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.
