Stock" consisting of 950,000 shares, $0.001 par value, with the
following powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations, and
restrictions:
1. Liquidation.
1.01. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation
(whether complete or partial), dissolution, or winding up of the
Corporation, the holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall
be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available
for distribution to its shareholders, whether from capital, surplus, or
earnings, an amount in cash equal to $5.00 per share. No distribution
shall be made on any common stock of the Corporation (the "Common
Stock") or other series of preferred stock of the Corporation by reason
of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation (whether complete or
partial), dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation unless each
holder of any Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall have received all
amounts to which such holder shall be entitled under this subsection.
1.02 If on any liquidation (whether complete or partial),
dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation, the assets of the
Corporation available for distribution to holders of Series A Voting
Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to pay the holders of outstanding
Series A Voting Preferred Stock the full amounts to which they
otherwise would be entitled under section 1.01, the assets of the
Corporation available for distribution to holders of the Series A
Voting Preferred Stock shall be distributed to them pro rata on the
basis of the number of shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock held
by each such holder.
1.03 Upon completion of the distribution required by Section
1.01 above, if assets remain in the Corporation, the holders of the
Corporation's Common Stock shall receive all the remaining assets of
the Corporation.
2. Voting Rights. The holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to one vote for each share of the Series A Voting Preferred
Stock held by them, and to vote with the Common Stock of the Corporation on all
matters submitted to a vote of Common Stockholders for all purposes. Except as
otherwise provided herein or by the laws of the State of Nevada, the holders of
the Series A Voting Preferred Stock and Common Stockholders shall vote together
as one class on all matters submitted to shareholder vote of the Corporation.

3. Dividends. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall participate
with the Common Stock on any dividends declared and paid thereon on a
share-for-share basis. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall not have any
preference as to dividends.
4. Redemption by Corporation. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall
be redeemed by the Corporation at a price of $5.00 per share, upon the written
request for redemption from any holder thereof received during the thirty day
period commencing January 2, 2002 and expiring at the close of business on
January 31, 2002. Before any holder of Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall be
entitled to have his or her shares redeemed by the Corporation, he or she shall
surrender the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office
of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the Series A Voting Preferred
Stock, and shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal
corporate office, of the request for redemption as provided above. The
Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such
office to such holder of Series A Voting Preferred Stock a check in the amount
of the redemption price multiplied by the number of shares surrendered for
redemption. Such redemption shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior
to the close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Series A
Voting Preferred Stock to be converted.
5. Call by Corporation. The Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall be
callable by the Corporation at a price of $5.00 per share by delivering a
written notice of call to the holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock
within the period commencing December 26, 2000 and expiring at the close of
business on January 31, 2002, which notice shall indicate the Corporation's
intent to call the Series A Voting Preferred Stock and shall specify the
effective date of the call. The effective date shall be not less than 30 days
from the delivery date of the notice. Any holder of Series A Voting Preferred
Stock may elect to convert his or her Series A Voting Preferred Stock to Common
Stock prior to the effective date of the call; provided that notice of such
conversion is received by the Corporation not less than five (5) days prior to
the effective date of the call. On the effective date of the call, all issued
and outstanding shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock (not previously
redeemed or converted to Common Stock) shall automatically be converted into the
right to receive payment of the call price of $5.00 per share upon surrender of
the certificate or certificates for the Series A Voting Preferred Stock, duly
endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for the
Series A Voting Preferred Stock.
6. Conversion.
6.01 Conversion Rate. Each share of the Series A Voting
Preferred Stock is convertible into one share of Common Stock of the
Corporation at the times, in the manner, and subject to the conditions
provided in this section 6.
6.02 Voluntary Conversion. Each share of the Series A Voting
Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder
thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, at the
office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for such stock.
6.03 Mechanics of Conversion. Before any holder of Series A
Voting Preferred Stock shall be entitled to convert the same into
shares of Common Stock, he shall surrender the certificate or
certificates therefor, duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation
or of any transfer agent for the Series A Voting Preferred Stock, and
shall give written notice to the Corporation at its principal corporate
office, of the election to convert the same and shall state therein the
name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of
Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as
practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder
of Series A Voting Preferred Stock, or to the nominee or nominees of
such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of
Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such
conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the
close of business on the date of such surrender of the shares of Series
A Voting Preferred Stock to be converted, and the person or persons
entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such
conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or
holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date.

<PAGE>
6.04 Automatic Conversion. On February 1, 2002, each share of
the Series A Voting Preferred Stock which has not been surrendered for
redemption in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 hereof,
called by the Corporation in accordance with the provisions of Section
5 hereof, or surrendered for conversion in accordance with the
provisions of Sections 6.02 and 6.03 hereof, shall be automatically
converted into one share of Common Stock of the Corporation on February
1, 2002, without any further notice or action by the Corporation or the
holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock, and from and after
February 1, 2002, each certificate representing such shares of Series A
Voting Preferred Stock shall be deemed to represent the number of
shares of the Corporation's Common Stock into which such Series A
Voting Preferred Stock has been converted.
6.05 Anti-Dilution. In order to prevent dilution of the rights
granted hereunder, the conversion and voting rights shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time in accordance with this section
(a) In the event the Corporation shall declare a
dividend or make any other distribution on any capital stock
of the Corporation payable in Common Stock, options to
purchase Common Stock, or securities convertible into Common
Stock of the Corporation, shall at any time subdivide (other
than by means of a dividend payable in Common Stock) its
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of
shares or combine such outstanding stock into a smaller number
of shares, and if there is not a corresponding dividend or
distribution on or to, or split or subdivision of, the Series
A Voting Preferred Stock, then in each such event, the
conversion rate shall be adjusted so that the holders of the
Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive
the kind and number of shares of Common Stock or other
securities of the Corporation which they would have owned or
have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of
the events described above, had such shares of the Series A
Voting Preferred Stock been converted immediately prior to the
happening of such event or any record date with respect
thereto; an adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph (a)
shall become effective immediately after the effective date of
such event retroactive to the record date for such event.
(b) If any capital reorganization or reclassification
of the capital stock of the Corporation, consolidation or
merger of the Corporation with another corporation, or the
sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another
corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities,
or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock,
then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification,
consolidation, merger, or sale, lawful adequate provisions
shall be made whereby the holders of the Series A Voting
Preferred Stock shall thereafter, have the right to acquire
and receive on conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred
Stock such shares of stock, securities, or assets as would
have been issuable or payable (as part of the reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, or sale) with respect
to or in exchange for such number of outstanding shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock as would have been received on
conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock immediately
before such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, or sale. In any such case, appropriate provisions
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the
holders of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock to the end that
the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions
for adjustments of the Conversion rate and for the number of
shares issuable on conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred
Stock) shall thereafter be applicable in relation to any
shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable
on the conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock. In
the event of a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with
or into another corporation or the sale of all or
substantially all of its assets as a result of which a number
of shares of Common Stock of the surviving or purchasing
corporation greater or lesser than the number of shares of
Common Stock of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior
to such merger, consolidation, or purchase are issuable to
holders of Common Stock of the Corporation, then the
conversion rate shall be adjusted in the same manner as though
there was a subdivision or combination of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock of the Corporation.

(c) No adjustment shall be made in the conversion
rate of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of Series A Voting Preferred Stock (i) in
connection with the issuance of any shares of Common Stock,
securities, or assets on account of the anti-dilution
provisions set forth in this section 6.05; (ii) in connection
with the purchase or other acquisition by the Corporation of
any capital stock, evidence of its indebtedness, or other
securities of the Corporation; or (iii) in connection with the
sale or exchange by the Corporation of any Common Stock,
evidence of its indebtedness, or other securities of the
Corporation, including securities containing the right to
subscribe for or purchase Common Stock of the Corporation.
6.06 The Corporation covenants and agrees that:
(a) The shares of Common Stock issuable on any
conversion of any shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock
shall have been deemed to have been issued to the person on
the date such shares are surrendered to the Corporation for
conversion as provided in Section 6.02 or the date such shares
are automatically converted as provided in Section 6.04, and
on such date such person shall be deemed for all purposes to
have become the record holder of such Common Stock.
(b) All shares of Common Stock which may be issued on
any conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock will, on
issuance, be fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens, and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
(c) The issuance of certificates for Common Stock on
conversion of the Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall be
made without charge to the registered holder thereof for any
issuance tax in respect thereof or other costs incurred by the
Corporation in connection with the conversion of the Series A
Voting Preferred Stock and the related issuance of Common
Stock or other securities.
7. Subordination. Any redemption hereunder shall be subordinated to
payment in full of all Senior Debt as defined herein. "Senior Debt" shall mean
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all indebtedness of the
Corporation to any financial institution, including, but not limited to, (i)
banks whether currently outstanding or hereinafter created and whether or not
such loans are secured or unsecured; (ii) any other indebtedness, liability,
obligation, contingent or otherwise of the Corporation whether created or
assumed by the Corporation prior to or after the date of the creation of the
Series A Voting Preferred Stock, which is, when created, specifically designated
by the Corporation as Senior Debt; and (iii) any refunding, renewals, or
extensions of any indebtedness or similar obligations described as Senior Debt
in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above.
8. Additional Provisions
8.01 No change in the provisions of the Series A Voting
Preferred Stock set forth in this Designation affecting any interests
of the holders of any shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall
be binding or effective unless such change shall have been approved by
the holders of all of the outstanding Series A Voting Preferred Stock
in the manner provided in the corporation laws of the state of Nevada,
as the same may be amended from time to time.
8.02 The shares of Series A Voting Preferred Stock shall be
transferable only on the books of the Corporation maintained at its
principal office, on delivery thereof duly endorsed by the holder or by
his duly authorized attorney or representative or accompanied by proper
evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer. In all
cases of transfer by an attorney, the original letter of attorney, duly
approved, or an official copy thereof, duly certified, shall be
deposited and remain with the Corporation. In case of transfer by
executors, administrators, guardians, or other legal representatives,
duly authenticated evidence of their authority shall be produced and
may be required to be deposited and remain with the new certificate
representing the share of Series A Voting Preferred Stock so
transferred to the person entitled thereto.
