                                      I.

     The address of the registered office of the Corporation in the State of

                                     III.

                                    Purpose

     The purpose of this Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity
for which a Corporation may be organized under the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware.

                                      IV.

                                     Stock

     A.   This Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be
designated, respectively, "Common Stock" and "Preferred Stock." The total number
of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue is One Hundred and Five
Million (105,000,000) shares. One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares shall be
Common Stock, each having a par value of $0.0001. Five Million (5,000,000)
shares shall be Preferred Stock, each having a par value of $0.0001.

     B.   The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more
series. The Board of Directors is hereby expressly authorized to provide for the
issue of all of any of the shares of the Preferred Stock in one or more series,
and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series,
such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designation,
preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such
qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and
expressed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors
providing for the issuance of such shares and as may be permitted by the DGCL.
The Board of Directors is also expressly authorized to increase or decrease the
number of shares of any series subsequent to the issuance


                                      1
<PAGE>

of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then
outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be decreased in
accordance with the foregoing sentence, the shares constituting such decrease
shall resume the status that they had prior to the adoption of the resolution
originally fixing the number of shares of such series. The number of authorized
shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the
number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the Common Stock, without a vote of the holders of the
Preferred Stock, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is
required pursuant to the terms of any certificate of designation filed with
respect to any series of Preferred Stock.

     C.   Each outstanding share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder
thereof to one vote on each matter properly submitted to the stockholders of the
Corporation for their vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise
required by law, holders of Common Stock shall not be entitled to vote on any
amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of
designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates
solely to the terms of one ore more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the
holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a
class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon by law
or pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any certificate of
designation filed with respect to any series of Preferred Stock).

                                      V.

                                  Management

     A.   For the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs
of the Corporation, and in further definition, limitation and regulation of the
powers of the Corporation, of its directors and of its stockholders or any class
thereof, as the case may be, it is further provided that:

          1.     The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs
of the Corporation shall be vested in its Board of Directors. The number of
directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed
exclusively by one or more resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors.

          2.     Board of Directors. Subject to the rights of the holders of any
series of Preferred Stock to elect additional directors under specified
circumstances, and to any restrictions or limitations of applicable law,
following the closing of the initial public offering pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering
the offer and sale of Common Stock to the public (the "Initial Public
Offering"), the directors shall be divided into three classes designated as
Class I, Class II and Class III, respectively. Directors shall be assigned to
each class in accordance with a resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board
of Directors. At the first annual meeting of stockholders following the closing
of the Initial Public Offering, the term of office of the Class I directors
shall expire and Class I directors shall be elected for a full term of three
years. At the second annual meeting of stockholders following the Closing of the
Initial Public Offering, the term of office of the Class II directors shall
expire and Class II directors shall be elected for a full term of three years.
At the third annual meeting of stockholders following the Closing of the Initial

                                       2
<PAGE>

Public Offering, the term of office of the Class III directors shall expire and
Class III directors shall be elected for a full term of three years. At each
succeeding annual meeting of stockholders, directors shall be elected for a full
term of three years to succeed the directors of the class whose terms expire at
such annual meeting.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, each director
shall serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified or until his
death, resignation or removal.  No decrease in the number of directors
constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent
director.

          3.     Removal of Directors.

                 (a)   Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock to
elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the Board of Directors
nor any individual director may be removed without cause.

                 (b)   Subject to any limitation imposed by law, any individual
director or directors may be removed with cause by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a 66 2/3% of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of
capital stock of the corporation entitled to vote generally at an election of
directors.

          4.     Vacancies. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series
of Preferred Stock, any vacancies on the Board of Directors resulting from
death, resignation, disqualification, removal or other causes and any newly
created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors,
shall, unless the Board of Directors determines by resolution that any such
vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders,
except as otherwise provided by law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the directors then in office, even though less than a quorum of the
Board of Directors, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in
accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for the remainder of
the full term of the director for which the vacancy was created or occurred and
until such director's successor shall have been elected and qualified.

     B.   Bylaw Amendments.

          1.     Subject to Section 45 of the Bylaws, the Bylaws may be altered
or amended or new Bylaws adopted by the affirmative vote of at least sixty-six
and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the voting power of all of the then-
outstanding shares of the Voting Stock. The Board of Directors shall also have
the power to adopt, amend, or repeal Bylaws.

          2.     The directors of the Corporation need not be elected by written
ballot unless the Bylaws so provide.

          3.     No action shall be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation
except at an annual or special meeting of stockholders called in accordance with
the Bylaws and following the closing of the Initial Public Offering no action
shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent.

                                       3

          4.     Advance notice of stockholder nominations for the election of
directors and of business to be brought by stockholders before any meeting of
the stockholders of the Corporation shall be given in the manner provided in the
Bylaws of the Corporation.

                                      VI.

                            Liability of Directors

     A.   The liability of the directors for monetary damages shall be
eliminated to the fullest extent under applicable law. If the DGCL is amended to
authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the corporation
shall be eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

     B.   Any repeal or modification of this Article VI shall be prospective and
shall not affect the rights under this Article VI in effect at the time of the
alleged occurrence of any act or omission to act giving rise to liability or
indemnification.
                                     VII.

                                   Amendment

     A.   The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal
any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now
or hereafter prescribed by statute, except as provided in paragraph B. of this
Article VII, and all rights conferred upon the stockholders herein are granted
subject to this reservation.

     B.   Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Certificate of
Incorporation or any provision of law which might otherwise permit a lesser vote
or no vote, but in addition to any affirmative vote of the holders of any
particular class or series of the Voting Stock required by law, this Certificate
of Incorporation or any Preferred Stock Designation, the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66-2/3%) of the voting
power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the Voting Stock, voting together
as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend or repeal Articles V, VI
and VII.
