                       (Amended and Restated as of April 5, 1994 and
                          further Amended through June 13, 2000)

ARTICLE ONE: OFFICES

1.01  Registered Office and Agent. The registered office and registered agent
of Community Bancorp. (the "Corporation") shall be as designated from time to
time by the appropriate filing by the Corporation in the office of the Secretary
of State of Vermont.

1.02  Other Offices. The Corporation may also have offices at such other places,
both within and without the State of Vermont, as the Board of Directors may from
time to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.

ARTICLE TWO: SHAREHOLDERS

2.01  Annual Meetings. The regular annual meeting of shareholders of the
Corporation shall be held on the first Tuesday of May of each year, at such time
and place as shall be designated by the Board of Directors and stated in the
notice of the meeting. At such meeting, the shareholders shall elect directors
and transact such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.
(As amended November 15, 1983).

2.02  Special Meetings. A special meeting of the shareholders may be called at
any time by the President, or by the Board of Directors, or by the Secretary
upon the petition of the holders of not less than ten percent of all shares
entitled to vote on any issue at such meeting. Only such business shall be
transacted at a special meeting as may be stated or indicated in the notice
of such meeting.

2.03  Place of Meetings. The annual meeting of shareholders may be held at
any place within or without the State of Vermont as may be designated by the
Board of Directors. Special meetings of shareholders may be held at any place
within the State of Vermont as may be designated by the person or persons
calling such special meeting as provided in Section 2.02. If no place for a
meeting is designated, it shall be held at the registered office of the
Corporation.

2.04  Notice. Written or printed notice stating the place, day, and hour of each
meeting of shareholders, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or
purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be delivered not less than ten
nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by
mail, by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the President, the
Secretary, or the persons calling the meeting, to each shareholder of record
entitled to vote at such meeting.

2.05  Voting List. Beginning two business days after the notice of meeting is
given, and continuing through the meeting, the Secretary shall make available
for inspection by any shareholder a complete list of shareholders entitled to
notice of and to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, including
the address of each shareholder and the number of voting shares held by each
shareholder. Such list shall be kept on file during the time specified at the
principal office of the Corporation or at a place identified in the notice in
the city in which the meeting is to be held. The list shall be subject to
inspection during usual business hours, and upon written demand, by any
shareholder of record entitled to vote at that meeting, or his or her agent or
attorney, who shall be entitled to copy the list at his or her own expense.
Such list shall be produced at such meeting, and at all times during such
meeting shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder of record entitled
to vote at that meeting, or his or her agent or attorney. The original stock
transfer books shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the shareholders
entitled to examine such list or stock transfer books.

2.06  Voting of Shares. Treasury shares, and shares of the Corporation's
own stock owned, directly or indirectly by another corporation (other than
shares held in a fiduciary capacity) the majority of the voting stock of which
is owned or controlled by the Corporation, shall not be shares entitled to vote
or to be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares. Shares
held by an administrator, executor, guardian, or conservator may be voted by
him, either in person or by proxy, without transfer of such shares into his name
so long as such shares form a part of the estate and are in the possession of the
estate being served by him. Shares standing in the name of a trustee may be
voted by him, either in person or by proxy, only after the shares have been
transferred into his name as trustee. Shares standing in the name of a receiver
may be voted by such receiver, and shares held by or under the control of a
receiver may be voted by such receiver without transfer of such shares into
his name if authority to do so is contained in the court order by which such
receiver was appointed. Shares standing in the name of another domestic or
foreign corporation of any type or kind may be voted by such officer, agent,
or proxy as the By-laws of such corporation may provide or, in the absence of
such provision, as the Board of Directors of such corporation shall determine.
A shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares
until they have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter,
the pledgee shall be entitled to vote such shares.

2.07  Quorum. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to
vote on a matter, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a
quorum for action on that matter at any meeting of shareholders, except as
otherwise provided by law or the Articles of Incorporation. If a quorum shall
not be present or represented at any meeting of shareholders, a majority of the
shareholders who are present in person or represented by proxy and who are
entitled to vote on any issue at the meeting, may adjourn the meeting from
time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a
quorum shall be present or represented. At any reconvening of an adjourned
meeting any business as to which a quorum is present or represented by proxy
may be transacted which could have been transacted at the original meeting,
had a quorum been present or represented.

2.08  Majority Vote; Withdrawal of Quorum. Except as otherwise provided
by law or the Articles of Incorporation, if a quorum on a matter is present in
person or represented by proxy at any meeting, the action on such matter will
be approved if the number of votes cast in favor of the matter exceeds the
number of votes cast opposing the matter. The shareholders present at a duly
convened meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, not-
withstanding any withdrawal of shareholders which may leave less than a
quorum remaining.

2.09  Method of Voting; Proxies. Every shareholder of record shall be entitled
at every meeting of shareholders to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote,
for every share standing in his name on the original stock transfer books of the
Corporation except to the extent that the voting rights of the shares of any
class or classes are limited or denied by the Articles of Incorporation or by
law. Such books shall be prima facie evidence as to the identity of shareholders
entitled to vote. At any meeting of shareholders, every shareholder having the
right to vote may vote either in person or by a proxy executed in writing by the
shareholder or by his duly authorized secretary-in-fact. Each such proxy shall
be filed with the Secretary of the Corporation or other officer or agent
authorized to tabulate votes before or at the time of the meeting and shall
become effective upon such filing. No proxy shall be valid after 11 months
from the date of its execution, unless otherwise expressly provided in the
proxy. If no date is stated on a proxy, such proxy shall be presumed to have
been executed on the date of the meeting at which it is to be voted. Each proxy
shall be revocable unless expressly and conspicuously provided therein to be
irrevocable and the appointment as proxy is coupled with an interest, or unless
otherwise made irrevocable by law.

2.10  Acceptance of Votes. If the name signed on a vote, consent, waiver, or
proxy appointment corresponds to the name of a shareholder, the Corporation if
acting in good faith shall be entitled to accept the vote, consent, waiver, or
proxy appointment and give it effect as the act of the shareholders. If the name
signed on a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment does not correspond to
the name of its shareholder, the Corporation if acting in good faith shall
nevertheless be entitled to accept the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy
appointment and give it effect as the act of the shareholder if:

(1)   the shareholder is an entity as defined in the Vermont Business
     Corporation Act and the name signed purports to be that of an
     officer or agent of the entity;

(2)   the name signed purports to be that of an administrator, executor,
     guardian, or conservator representing the shareholder and, if the
     Corporation requests, evidence of fiduciary status acceptable to the
     Corporation has been presented with respect to the vote, consent,
     waiver, or proxy appointment;

(3)   the name signed purports to be that of a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy
     of the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests, evidence of this
     status acceptable to the Corporation has been presented with respect to
     the vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment;

(4)   the name signed purports to be that of a pledgee, beneficial owner, or
     attorney-in-fact of the shareholder and, if the Corporation requests,
     evidence acceptable to the Corporation of the signatory's authority to
     sign for the shareholder has been presented with respect to the vote,
     consent, waiver, or proxy appointment; or

(5)   two or more persons are the shareholder as co-tenants or fiduciaries
     and the name signed purports to be the name of at least one of the co-
     owners and the person signing appears to be acting on behalf of all the
     co-owners.

The Corporation shall be entitled to reject a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy
appointment if the Secretary or other officer or agent authorized to tabulate
votes, acting in good faith, has reasonable basis for doubt about the validity
of the signature on it or about the signatory's authority to sign for the
shareholder. The Corporation and its officer or agent who accepts or rejects
a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment in good faith and in accordance
with the standards of this section are not liable in damages to the shareholder
for the consequences of the acceptance or rejection. Corporate action based on
the acceptance or rejection of a vote, consent, waiver, or proxy appointment
under this section is valid unless a court of competent jurisdiction determines
otherwise.

2.11  Record Date. For the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any reconvening thereof
or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or in order to make a determin-
ation of shareholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors may
fix in advance a date as the record date. Such record date shall not be more
than 70 days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such
determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If no record date is so fixed by
the Board for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, or to
vote at a meeting of shareholders, or shareholders entitled to receive a share
dividend or other distribution, the record date for determination of such
shareholders shall be at the close of business on:

(a)   With respect to an annual shareholder meeting or any special shareholder
     meeting called by the Board or any person specifically authorized by the
     Board or these bylaws to call a meeting, the day before the first notice
     is delivered to shareholders;

(b)   With respect to a special shareholder's meeting demanded by the
      shareholders, the date the first shareholder signs the demand;
(c)   With respect to the payment of a share dividend, the date the
     Board authorizes the share dividend;
(d)   With respect to actions taken in writing without a meeting, the
     date the first shareholder signs a consent;
(e)   And with respect to a distribution to shareholders, other than one
     involving a repurchase or reacquisition of shares, the date the
     Board authorizes the distribution.

When a determination of shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting
of shareholders has been made as provided in this section, such determination
shall apply to any adjournment thereof unless the Board of Directors fixes a
new record date. The Board of Directors shall fix a new record date if the
meeting is adjourned to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for
the original meeting.

2.12  Presiding Officials at Meetings. Unless some other person is elected
by a vote of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at a meeting of
shareholders, or is designated by the Board of Directors, the President shall
preside at and the Secretary shall prepared minutes of each meeting of
shareholders.

2.13  Inspection of Corporate Records.
(a)   Minutes and Accounting Records. The Corporation shall keep as
     permanent records minutes of all meetings of its shareholders and
     Board of Directors, a record of all actions taken by the shareholders
     or Board of Directors without a meeting, and a record of all actions
     taken by a committee of the Board of Directors in place of the Board of
     Directors on behalf of the Corporation. The Corporation shall maintain
     appropriate accounting records.

(b)   Absolute Inspection Rights of Records Required at Principal Office.
     Upon written demand to the Corporation made at least five business days
     before the date on which he wishes to inspect and copy, a shareholder
     (or his agent or attorney) shall be entitled to inspect and copy, during
     regular business hours, any of the following records, all of which the
     Corporation is required to keep at its principal office:

  (1)   its Articles or Restated Articles of Incorporation and all amendments
       to them currently in effect;
  (2)   its bylaws or restated bylaws and all amendments to them currently
       in effect;
  (3)   the minutes of all shareholders' meetings, and records of all action
       taken by shareholders without a meeting, for the past three years;
  (4)   all written communications to shareholders generally within the past
       three years, including the financial statements furnished for the past
       three years to the shareholders;
  (5)   a list of the names and business addresses of its current directors
       and officers; and
  (6)   its most recent annual report delivered to the Secretary of State.

(c)   Conditional Inspection Right. A shareholder (or his agent or attorney)
     shall be entitled to inspect and copy, during regular business hours at a
     reasonable location specified by the Corporation, any of the records
     specified below in this paragraph (c), provided that (i) such shareholder
     older gives the Corporation a written demand made in good faith, at least
     five business days before the date on which he wishes to inspect and copy,
     (ii) the demand is for a proper purpose and the written demand describes
     with reasonable particularity the purpose for the request and the records
     he or she desires to inspect, and (iii) the records are directly connected
     with the shareholder's purpose. The right of inspection specified in this
     paragraph (c) shall apply to the following records of the Corporation:

  (1)   accounting records of the Corporation; and
  (2)   the record of shareholders (compiled no earlier than the date of the
       shareholder's demand).

(d)   Copy Costs. The right to copy records includes, if reasonable, the right
     to receive copies made by photocopy or other means. The Corporation may
     impose a reasonable charge, covering the costs of labor and material, for
     copies of any documents provided to the shareholder. The charge may not
     exceed the estimated cost of production or reproduction of the records.

(e)   Shareholder Includes Beneficial Owner. For purposes of this section
     2.13, the term "shareholder" shall include a beneficial owner whose shares
     are held in a voting trust or by a nominee on the beneficial owner's behalf.

ARTICLE THREE: DIRECTORS

3.01  Management. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed
by the Board of Directors, subject to the restrictions imposed by law, the Articles
of Incorporation, or these By-laws.

3.02  Number; Election; Term; Qualification. Subject to Section 3.06 below, the
Board of Directors shall consist of not less than 9 nor more than 25 shareholders,
the exact number and the terms of office of which shall be fixed from time to
time by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority
of the full Board of Directors. Such exact number may be increased or decreased
by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least seventy-five percent (75%)
of the combined voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the
Corporation's capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors, (other than directors, if any, elected under Article Fifteen of the
Articles of Incorporation). Election of directors shall be by vote of a
majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at a meeting at
which a quorum is present.

3.03  Classification. The directors (other than directors, if any, elected
under Article Fifteen of the Articles of Incorporation) shall be classified,
with respect to the time for which they severally hold office, into three
classes, as nearly equal in number as possible. Upon their initial election,
the members of the first class shall hold office for a term expiring at the
next annual meeting of the shareholders after their election, the members
of the second class shall hold office for a term expiring at the second annual
meeting of the shareholders after their election, and the members of the
third class shall hold office for a term expiring at the third annual meeting
of shareholders after their election. At each annual meeting of shareholders
following such initial classification and election, directors elected to
succeed those directors whose terms expire shall be elected for a term of
office to expire at the third succeeding annual meeting of shareholders after
their election.

3.04  Vacancies. Subject to Section 3.06 below, any vacancies in the Board of
Directors resulting from death, resignation, retirement, or removal from office
of a director may be filled by the Board of Directors, acting by resolution of
a majority of the directors then in office (other than directors, if any, elected
under Article Fifteen of the Articles of Incorporation), although less than a
quorum. Any director chosen to fill a vacancy as provided herein shall hold
office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have
been elected and shall have qualified. No decrease in the number of directors
shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

3.05  Mandatory Retirement. No person whether or not a director in office
shall be elected as a member of the Board of Directors after his or her
seventieth birthday. Any director who passes the age of seventy while in
office may continue to serve until the next annual meeting.

3.06  Removal. Subject to Section 3.07 below, any director, or the entire
Board of Directors, may be removed from office at any time, but only for
cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least seventy-five
percent (75%) of the combined voting power of all of the then-outstanding
shares of the Corporation's capital stock entitled to vote generally in the
election of directors.

3.07  Inconsistency. Nothing contained in Sections 3.02 through 3.07 of this
Article Three shall be deemed to alter, amend or repeal any of the provisions
of Article Fifteen of the Articles of Incorporation, which confers, under
circumstances described therein, on the holders of the debentures referred
to therein, the right to elect directors in certain circumstances. During any
period in which such rights may be exercised, the provision or provisions
conferring such rights shall prevail over any provision of these By-laws
inconsistent therewith.

3.08  Nominations. Nominations for election to the Board of Directors shall be
made by the Board of Directors. One or more shareholders may submit to the
Board of Directors for consideration recommendations for persons to be
nominated as directors. Any such recommendations must be in writing,
mailed or delivered to the President of the Corporation on or before January
1 next preceding the annual shareholders meeting for which such election is
sought and must disclose the following information (to the extent known):
(a) the name and address of each proposed nominee; (b) the principal occupation
of each proposed nominee; and (c) the number of shares of the Corporations'
common stock owned by each proposed nominee.

3.09  Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors may hold its annual meeting for
the purpose of organization and the transaction of business, if a quorum is
present, immediately after the annual meeting of shareholders, and no notice
of such meeting shall be necessary.

3.10  Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors shall be
held without notice at such times and places as may be designated from time to
time by resolution of the Board of Directors and communicated to all directors.

3.11  Special Meetings. A special meeting of the Board of Directors shall be
held whenever called by the President of the Corporation or by any three
directors at such time and place as the President or directors shall designate
in the notice of such special meeting. The person or persons calling any special
meeting shall cause notice of such special meeting to be given to each director
at least 24 hours before such special meeting. Neither the business to be
transacted at, nor the purpose of, any special meeting of the Board of Directors
need be specified in the notice or waiver of notice of any special meeting,
except for proposed amendments to the By-Laws.

3.12  Quorum; Majority Vote. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a
majority of the directors fixed in the manner provided in these By-Laws shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If a quorum is not present
at a meeting, a majority of the directors present may adjourn the meeting from
time to time, without notice other than an announcement at the meeting, until
a quorum is present. The vote of a majority of the directors present at a
meeting at which a quorum is in attendance shall be the act of the board of
directors, unless the vote of a different number is required by law, the
Articles of Incorporation or these By-Laws.

3.13  Procedure; Minutes. At meetings of the Board of Directors, business shall
be transacted in such order as the Board of Directors may determine from time
to time. The President of the Corporation, or in his absence a designated Vice-
President, shall preside at each meeting of the Board of Directors provided that
in the absence of the President and any qualified Vice-President the Board of
Directors may appoint a person to preside at the meeting. The Secretary of the
Corporation or an Assistant Secretary designated by the Board shall act as
secretary of each meeting provided that in the absence of the Secretary and
any qualified Assistant Secretary, the Board of Directors shall appoint at
each meeting a person to act as Secretary of the meeting. The Secretary of the
meeting shall prepare minutes of the meeting which shall be delivered to the
Secretary of the Corporation for placement in the minutes books of the
Corporation.

3.14  Presumption of Assent. A director of the Corporation who is present at
any meeting of the Board of Directors at which action on any matter is taken
shall be presumed to have assented to the action unless (i) he shall object at
the beginning of the meeting (or promptly following his arrival) to holding
the meeting or transacting business at the meeting, or (ii) his dissent or
abstention shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or (iii) he shall
file his written dissent or abstention to such action with the presiding officer
of the meeting before the adjournment thereof. Such right to dissent shall not
apply to a director who voted in favor of such action.

3.15  Compensation. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation,
by resolution of the Board of Directors, each director may be paid his expenses,
if any, of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors, and may be paid
a stated salary or retainer as director or a fixed sum for attendance at each
meeting of the Board of Directors, or both. No such payment shall preclude
any director from serving the Corporation in any capacity and receiving
compensation therefor.

ARTICLE FOUR: COMMITTEES

4.01  Designation. The Board of Directors, may by resolution adopted by a
majority of the entire Board of Directors, designate executive and other
committees.

Committee members shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors.

4.03  Authority. Each committee, to the extent expressly provided for in the
resolution adopted by a majority of the entire Board of Directors establishing

Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation.
However, no committee shall have the authority of the Board of Directors in
reference to:

     Corporation Act requires be approved by the shareholders;

constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If a quorum is not present
at a meeting of any committee, a majority of the committee members present may
adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than an announcement
at the meeting, until a quorum is present. The vote of a majority of the

shall be the act of a committee, unless the vote of a different number is
required by the Articles of Incorporation or these By-laws.

4.07  Minutes. Each committee shall cause minutes of its proceedings to be
prepared and shall report the same to the Board of Directors upon the request
of the Board of Directors. The minutes of the proceedings of each committee
shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Corporation for placement in the
minute books of the Corporation.

Directors, be allowed a fixed sum and expenses of attendance, if any, for
attending any committee meetings or a stated salary.

director of any responsibility imposed upon it or such director by law.

ARTICLE FIVE: GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO MEETINGS

5.01  Notice. Whenever by law, the Articles of Incorporation, or these By-laws,
notice is required to be given to any shareholder, director, or committee
member and no provision is made as to how such notice shall be given, it shall
be construed to mean that notice may be given either (a) in person, (b) in
writing, by first class mail, postage prepaid, (c) except in the case of a
shareholder, by telephone, telegram, telex, cable, telecopier, or similar means,
or (d) by any other method permitted by law. Any notice required or permitted
to be given hereunder (other than personal notice) shall be addressed to such
shareholder, director or committee member at his address as it appears on the
books of the Corporation, or, in the case of a shareholder, on the stock
transfer records of the Corporation or at such other place as such shareholder,
director, or committee member is known to be at the time notice is mailed or
transmitted. Any notice required or permitted to be given by mail shall be
deemed to be delivered and given at the time when the same is deposited in
the United States mail, postage prepaid. Any notice required or permitted to
be given in person or by telephone, telegram, telex, cable, telecopier, or
similar means shall be deemed to be delivered and given at the time given or
transmitted.

5.02  Waiver of Notice. Whenever by law, the Articles of Incorporation, or
these By-laws, any notice is required to be given to any shareholder, director
or committee member of the Corporation, a waiver thereof in writing signed
by the person or persons entitled to such notice, whether before or after the
time notice should have been given, shall be equivalent to the giving of such
notice. Attendance of a director at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of
notice of such meeting, except where a director attends 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.

5.03  Telephone and Similar Meetings. Shareholders, directors, or committee
members may participate in and hold a meeting by means of a conference
telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which persons
participating in the meeting can hear each other. Participation in such a
meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting, except where a
person participates in the 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.

5.04  Action Without Meeting. Any action which may be taken, or is required
by law, the Articles of Incorporation, or these By-laws to be taken, at a
meeting of directors, or committee members may be taken without a meeting if
a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all
of the directors, or committee members, as the case may be, entitled to vote
with respect to the subject matter thereof and such consent shall have the same
force and effect as a unanimous vote of such directors or committee members,
as the case may be, and may be stated as such in any document filed with the
Secretary of State of Vermont or in any certificate or other document delivered
to any person. The consent may be in one or more counterparts so long as each
director, or committee member signs one of the counterparts. The signed consent
shall be placed in the minute books of the Corporation and shall take effect as
of the date of the last signature, unless a different date is specified in the
consent.

ARTICLE SIX: OFFICERS AND OTHER AGENTS

6.01  Number; Titles; Election; Term. The Corporation shall have a president,
one or more vice presidents (and, in the case of each vice president, with
such descriptive title, if any, as the Board of Directors shall determine),
a secretary, a treasurer, and such other officers and agents as the Board of
Directors may deem desirable. The Board of Directors shall elect one of its
members as President of the Corporation and shall also elect one or more vice-
presidents, a treasurer, and a secretary at its first meeting at which a quorum
shall be present after formation of the Corporation and after each annual
meeting of shareholders, or whenever a vacancy exists. The Board of Directors
then, or from time to time, may also elect or appoint one or more other officers
or agents as it shall deem advisable. Each officer and agent shall hold office
for the term for which he is elected or appointed and until his successor has
been elected or appointed and qualified. Unless otherwise provided in the
resolution of the Board of Directors electing or appointing an officer or agent,
his term of office shall extend to and expire at the meeting of the Board of
Directors following the next annual meeting of shareholders or, if earlier, at
his death, resignation, or removal. Any two or more offices may be held by
the same person, except that the President and the Secretary shall not be the
same person. No officer or agent except the President of the Corporation need
be a shareholder, a director, a resident of the State of Vermont, or citizen of
the United States. The President must be a shareholder and duly elected or
appointed director of the Corporation.

6.02  Removal. Any officer or agent elected or appointed by the Board of
Directors may be removed by the Board of Directors, at any time, with or
without cause, but such removal shall be without prejudice to the contract

ARTICLE SEVEN: CERTIFICATES AND SHAREHOLDERS

7.01  Certificates for Shares. The certificates for shares of stock of the
Corporation shall be in such form as shall be approved by the Board of
Directors in conformity with law. The certificates shall be consecutively
numbered, shall be entered as they are issued in the books of the Corpor-
ation or in the records of the Corporation's designated transfer agent, if any,
and shall state the shareholder's name, the number of shares, and such other
matters as may be required by law. The certificates shall be signed, either
manually or by facsimile, by the President or any Vice-President and by the
Secretary or the Treasurer and shall be sealed with the seal of the Corporation
or facsimile thereof.

7.02  Issuance. Shares with or without par value may be issued for such
consideration and to such persons as the Board of Directors may from time to
time determine, except in the case of the shares with par value the consider-
ation must be at least equal to the par value of such shares. Shares may not
be issued until the full amount of the consideration has been paid.

7.03  Shares Without Certificates.

(a)   Issuing Shares Without Certificates

   Unless the Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, the Board of
Directors may authorize the issue of some or all the shares of its capital
stock without certificates. The authorization does not affect shares already
represented by certificates until they are surrendered to the Corporation.

(b)   Information Statement Required

   Within a reasonable time after the issue or transfer of shares without
   certificates, the Corporation shall send the shareholder a written statement
   containing at a minimum:

   (1)  the name of the issuing corporation and that it is organized under
       the laws of Vermont;

   (2)  the name of the person to whom issued; and

   (3)  the number and class of shares and the designation of the series, if
       any, of the issued shares.

7.04  Consideration for Shares. The consideration for the issuance of shares
shall consist of money paid, labor done (including services actually performed
for the Corporation), or property (tangible or intangible) actually received,
including other securities of the Corporation, and, in the discretion of the
Board of Directors, one or more promissory notes. The promise of future
services shall not constitute payment for shares. In the absence of fraud in
the transaction, the judgment of the Board of Directors as to the value of
consideration received shall be conclusive. When consideration, fixed as
provided by law, has been paid, the shares shall be deemed to have been
issued and shall be considered fully paid and nonassessable. The consideration
received for shares shall be allocated by the Board of Directors, in accordance
with law, between stated capital and capital surplus accounts.

7.05  Lost, Stolen, or Destroyed Certificates. The Corporation shall issue a
new certificate in place of any certificate for shares previously issued if the
registered owner of the certificate:

(a)   Claim. Makes proof in affidavit form that a previously issued certificate
for shares has been lost, destroyed, or stolen;

(b)   Timely Request. Requests the issuance of a new certificate before the
Corporation has notice that the certificate has been acquired by a purchaser
for value in good faith and without notice of an adverse claim;

(c)   Bond. Gives a bond in such form, and with such surety or sureties, with
fixed or open penalty, as the Board of Directors may direct, in its discretion,
to indemnify the Corporation (and its transfer agent and registrar, if any)
against any claim that may be made on account of the alleged loss, destruction,
or theft of the certificate; and

(d)   Other Requirements. Satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed
by the Corporation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may waive any or all of the
foregoing requirements in its discretion. When a certificate has been lost,
destroyed, or stolen, and the shareholder of record fails to notify the
Corporation within a reasonable time after he has notice of it, and the
Corporation registers a transfer of the shares represented by the certificate
before receiving such notification, the shareholder of record is precluded
from making any claim against the Corporation for the transfer or for a new
certificate.

7.06  Transfer of Shares. Shares of stock of the Corporation shall be
transferable only on the books of the Corporation by the shareholders of
record thereof in person or by their duly authorized attorneys or legal
representatives. Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of
the Corporation of a certificate representing shares duly endorsed or
accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to
transfer, the Corporation or its transfer agent shall issue a new certificate
to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate, and record the
transaction upon its books.

7.07  Registered Shareholders. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat
the shareholder of record as the shareholder in fact of any shares and,
accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to
or interest in such shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it
shall have actual or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by law.

abolish any such reserve.

books and records of account, shall keep as permanent records the minutes of
the proceedings of its shareholders, Board of Directors, and any committee,

execute, and deliver any waiver, proxy, or consent with respect to any such
securities.

law or in the Articles of Incorporation, these By-laws may be altered, amended
or repealed by the directors acting by resolution of a majority of the directors

provision of these By-laws or of the Articles of Incorporation and notwith-
standing the fact that some lesser percentage may be specified by law, the
affirmative vote of the holders of 75% or more of the combined voting power of
the then-outstanding shares of the Corporation's capital stock entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors shall be required to amend, alter, change,
or repeal, in whole or in part, Sections 3.02, 3.03, 3.04, 3.05, or 3.06 of
these By-laws.

8.09  Invalid Provisions. If any part of these By-laws shall be held invalid
or inoperative for any reason, the remaining parts, so far as it is possible
and reasonable, shall remain valid and operative.

8.10  Headings. The headings used in these By-laws are for convenience only
and do not constitute matter to be construed in the interpretation of these By-
laws.

ARTICLE NINE:  INDEMNIFICATION
(adopted June 13, 2000)

9.02  Authority to Indemnify.

(a)   Except as provided in section 9.02(d) and subject to section 9.06, this
Corporation shall indemnify an individual who is made a party to a proceeding
because he is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding if:

  (1)   he conducted himself in good faith; and

  (2)   he reasonably believed:

     (i)  in the case of conduct in his official capacity with the Corporation,
         that his conduct was in its best interest; and

     (ii)  in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to
         its best interests; and

  (3)   in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to
       believe his conduct was unlawful.

(b)   A director's conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan for a
purpose he reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants in
and beneficiaries of the plan is conduct that satisfies the requirement of
section 9.02(a)(2)(ii).

(c)   The termination of a proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent is not, of
itself, determinative that the director did not meet the standard of conduct
described in this section.

(d)   The Corporation may not indemnify a director under this section:

  (1)   in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation
       in which the director was adjudged liable to the Corporation; or

  (2)   in connection with any other proceeding charging improper personal
       benefit to him, whether or not involving action in his official capacity,
       in which he was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was
       was improperly received by him.

(e)   Indemnification permitted under this section in connection with a
proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation is limited to reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding.

9.03  Mandatory Indemnification in Certain Circumstances. This Corporation
shall indemnify a director who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise,
in the defense of any proceeding to which he was a party because he is or was a
director of the Corporation against reasonable expenses incurred by him in
connection with the proceeding.

9.04  Advance for Expenses.

(a)   The Corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred
by a director who is or was a party to a proceeding in advance of final disposition
of the proceeding if:

  (1)   the director furnishes the Corporation a written affirmation of his good
       faith belief that he has met the standard of conduct described in section
       9.02;

  (2)   the director furnishes the Corporation a written undertaking, executed
       personally or on his behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately
       determined that he did not meet the standard of conduct; and

  (3)   a determination is made that the facts then known to those making the
       determination would not preclude indemnification under this Article Nine.

(b)   The undertaking required by section 9.04(a)(2) must be an unlimited
general obligation of the director but need not be secured and may be accepted
without reference to financial ability to make repayment.

9.05  Court Ordered Indemnification. A director of this Corporation who is a
party to a proceeding may apply for indemnification to the court conducting the
proceeding or to another court of competent jurisdiction. On receipt of an
application, the court after giving any notice the court considers necessary
may order indemnification if it determines:

  (1)   the director is entitled to mandatory indemnification under section
       9.03, in which case the court shall also order the Corporation to pay
       the director's reasonable expenses incurred to obtain court-ordered
       indemnification; or

  (2)   the director is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification in
       view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not he met the
       standard of conduct set forth in section 9.02 or was adjudged liable
       as described in section 9.02(d), but if he was adjudged so liable his
       indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses incurred.

9.06  Determination and Authorization of Indemnification.

(a)   The Corporation may not indemnify a director under section 9.02 unless
authorized in the specific case after a determination has been made that
indemnification of the director is permissible in the circumstances because
he has met the standard of conduct set forth in Section 9.02.

(b)   The determination referred to in section 9.06(a) shall be made:

  (1)   by the Board of Directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of
       directors not at the time parties to the proceeding;

  (2)   if a quorum cannot be obtained under subdivision (1), by majority vote
       of a committee duly designated by the Board of Directors (in which
       designation directors who are parties may participate), consisting
       solely of two or more directors not at the time parties to the proceeding;

  (3)   by special legal counsel:

     (i)  selected by the Board of Directors or its committee in the manner
         prescribed in subdivision (1) or (2); or

     (ii)  if a quorum of the Board of Directors cannot be obtained under
          subdivision (1) and a committee cannot be designated under
          subdivision (2), selected by majority vote of the full Board of
          Directors (in which selection directors who are parties may
          participate);
          or

  (4)   by the shareholders, but shares owned by or voted under the control of
directors who are at the time parties to the proceeding may not be voted on the
determination;

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a "change in control" (as defined in
        the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended) of the
        Corporation shall have occurred within the preceding two years, the
        determination shall be made by special legal counsel, unless otherwise
        expressly agreed by the person claiming indemnification.

(c)   Authorization of indemnification and evaluation as to reasonableness of
expenses shall be made in the same manner as the determination that indemnifi-
cation is permissible, except that if the determination is made by special legal
counsel, authorization of indemnification and evaluation as to reasonableness
of expenses shall be made by those entitled under section 9.06(b)(3) to select
counsel.

If it is determined under this Section 9.06 that the claimant is entitled to
indemnification, payment to the claimant shall be made within 15 days after
such determination or demand.

9.07  Indemnification of Officers, Employees and Agents.

(a)   An individual who is made a party to a proceeding because he is or was
an officer of the Corporation is entitled to mandatory indemnification under
section 9.03 and is entitled to apply for court-ordered indemnification under
section 9.05, in each case to the same extent as a director.

(b)   The Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses under section 9.02
and 9.04 to an individual who is made a party to a proceeding because he is or
was an officer of the Corporation, subject to the same conditions and limitations
and to the same extent that these By-laws provide for indemnification and
advancement of expenses to a director.

(c)   In the discretion of the Board of Directors, the Corporation may
indemnify and advance expenses under Sections 9.02 and 9.04 to an individual
who is made a party to a proceeding because he is or was an employee or agent
of the Corporation, subject to the same conditions and limitations and to the
same extent that these By-laws provide for indemnification and advancement
of expenses to a director.

9.08  Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of an individual who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent
of the Corporation or who, while a director, officer, employee, or agent of the
Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director,
officer, partner, trustee, employee, or agent of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, or other
enterprise, against liability asserted against or incurred by him in that
capacity or arising from his status as a director, officer, employee, or agent,
whether or not the Corporation would have power to indemnify him against the
same liability under section 9.02 or 9.03.

9.09  Contract Right. The right of indemnification conferred upon directors
and officers in this By-law shall be a contract right and shall include the
right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any
proceeding in advance of its final disposition. The right to indemnification
under this Section 9.09 shall be deemed to vest upon the occurrence of the
event giving rise to the claim for indemnification and no subsequent
modification or repeal of this Article Nine or other action on the part of the
Corporation or otherwise shall operate to limit or impair such right. Nothing
in this Section 9.09 shall be deemed to create any vested contract right to
indemnification or advance of expenses in favor of any person for whom
indemnification or advancement of expenses is merely permissive and not
required under applicable law or this Article Nine.

9.10  Enforcement of Rights. In any action brought by a claimant to enforce
the right to indemnification under this Article Nine, it shall be a defense to
any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses
incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where
the requirements of Section 9.04 have been met), that the claimant has not met
the standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the Vermont Business
Corporation Law for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount
claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation.

9.11  Non-Exclusive Rights; Survival. The right to indemnification and the
payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final
disposition conferred in this Article Nine shall not be exclusive of any other
right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, other
provision of the Articles of Association or By-laws, contract, vote of stock-
holders or Directors or otherwise. No repeal or modification of this Article
Nine shall in any way diminish or adversely affect the rights of any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any
occurrence or matter arising prior to any such repeal or modification.

9.12  Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Article Nine shall
be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (i)
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Article Nine (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of
this Article Nine containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable)
shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (ii) to the fullest
extent possible, the provisions of this Article Nine shall be construed so as
to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal
or unenforceable.

9.13 Application of this Article.
(a)   These provisions do not limit the Corporation's power to pay or
reimburse expenses incurred by a director, officer or other person in
connection with his appearance as a witness in a proceeding at a time when
such individual has not been made a named defendant or respondent to the
proceeding.

(b)   It is the intent of this Article Nine that the Corporation (i) shall
indemnify and advance expenses to directors and officers of the Corporation
and (ii) shall have the right to indemnify and advance expenses to any employee
or agent, in each case, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. In
the event that, after this Article Nine becomes effective, any such applicable
law is amended to permit expanded powers to indemnify or advance expenses,
the Corporation shall be deemed to have and may exercise all such expanded
powers, notwithstanding any contrary provision of these By-laws.

(c)   It is the intent of this Article Nine that it shall apply to acts and
omissions that occurred prior to its adoption, even though suit is not filed
or a claim is otherwise asserted until after such adoption.

   The undersigned, the Secretary of the Corporation, hereby certifies that
   the foregoing By-laws, as amended and restated, were adopted by the
   Board of Directors of the Corporation, as of the 5^th day of April, 1994,
   and were further amended by the Board of Directors on June 13, 2000.
