the case of the annual meeting, those matters which the board of directors, at
the time of giving the notice, intends to present for action by the stockholders
(but any proper matter may be presented at the meeting for such action). The

include the name of any nominee or nominees who, at the time of the notice, the

2.5 CONDUCT OF MEETING

The board of directors may adopt by resolution such rules and
regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem
appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations
as adopted by the board, the chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall have
the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and
to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for
the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures,
whether adopted by the board or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may
include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda
or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining
order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on

Unless and to the extent determined by the board or the chairman of the meeting,
meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the
rules of parliamentary procedure.

2.6 MANNER OF GIVING NOTICE; AFFIDAVIT OF NOTICE

Written notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given
either personally or by first-class mail or by telefacsimile or other written
communication. Notices not personally delivered shall be sent charges prepaid
and shall be addressed to the stockholder at the address of that stockholder
appearing on the books of the corporation or given by the stockholder to the
corporation for the purpose of notice. Notice shall be deemed to have been given
at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by
telefacsimile or other means of written communication.

An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice
of any stockholders' meeting, executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or
any transfer agent of the corporation giving the notice, shall be prima facie
evidence of the giving of such notice.

2.7 QUORUM

The holders of a majority in voting power of the stock issued and
outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by
proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the
transaction of business except as otherwise provided by statute or by the
certificate of incorporation. If, however, such quorum is not present or
represented at any meeting of the stockholders, then either (i) the chairman of
the meeting or (ii) the stockholders entitled to vote thereat, present in person
or represented by proxy, shall have power to adjourn the meeting in accordance
with this Section 2.7.



3

When a quorum is present at any meeting, the vote of the holders
of a majority of the stock having voting power present in person or represented
by proxy shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the
question is one upon which, by express provision of the laws of the State of
Delaware or of the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, a different
vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control
the decision of the question.

If a quorum be initially present, the stockholders may continue
to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough
stockholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken is approved by a
majority of the stockholders initially constituting the quorum.

2.8 ADJOURNED MEETING; NOTICE

When a meeting is adjourned to another time and place, unless
these bylaws otherwise require, notice need not be given of the adjourned
meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the
adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any
business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the
adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, or if after the adjournment a new
record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned
meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the
meeting.

2.9 VOTING

The stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders
shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 of these
bylaws, subject to the provisions of Sections 217 and 218 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (relating to voting rights of fiduciaries, pledgors and
joint owners, and to voting trusts and other voting agreements).

Except as may be otherwise provided in the certificate of
incorporation or these bylaws, each stockholder shall be entitled to one vote
for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder.

2.10 WAIVER OF NOTICE

Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of
the Delaware General Corporation Law or of the certificate of incorporation or
these bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice,
whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to
notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice
of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express
purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any
business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the
business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting
of the stockholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so
required by the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws.

2.11 RECORD DATE FOR STOCKHOLDER NOTICE; VOTING

For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to notice
of any meeting or to vote thereat or entitled to give consent to corporate
action without a meeting, the board of directors may fix, in advance, a record
date, which shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the
record date is adopted by the board of directors and which shall not be more
than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of any such
meeting, nor more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution
fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors in the case of an
action in writing without a meeting, and in such event only stockholders of
record on the date so fixed are entitled to notice and to vote, notwithstanding
any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record
date.

If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, (a) the
record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a
meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the business day
next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the
close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the
meeting is held, and (b) the record date for determining stockholders entitled
to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting shall be the first
date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action to be taken is
delivered to the corporation at its principal place of business or to the
corporation's registered office in Delaware.

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of
or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the
meeting unless the board of directors fixes a new record date for the adjourned
meeting, but the board of directors shall fix a new record date if the meeting
is adjourned for more than thirty (30) days from the date set for the original
meeting.

The record date for any other purpose shall be as provided in
Section 8.1 of these bylaws.

2.12 PROXIES

Every person entitled to vote for directors, or on any other
matter, shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents
authorized by a written proxy signed by the person and filed with the secretary
of the corporation, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three
(3) years from its date unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A proxy
shall be deemed signed if the stockholder's name is placed on the proxy (whether
by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission, telefacsimile or
otherwise) by the stockholder or the stockholder's attorney- in-fact. The
revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be
governed by the provisions of Section 212(e) of the Delaware General Corporation
Law.

The officer who has charge of the stock ledger of the corporation

stockholders, a complete list of the

in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of
any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary
business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting,
either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place
shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES,
AND OTHER AGENTS

6.1 INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

The corporation shall, to the maximum extent and in the manner
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as the same now exists or may
hereafter be amended, indemnify any person against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit, or proceeding in which such person was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director or officer of the corporation. For purposes of this Section 6.1, a
"director" or "officer" of the corporation shall mean any person (i) who is or
was a director or officer of the corporation, (ii) who is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or (iii) who was a
director or officer of a



12

corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the corporation or of another
enterprise at the request of such predecessor corporation.

The corporation shall be required to indemnify a director or
officer in connection with an action, suit, or proceeding (or part thereof)
initiated by such director or officer only if the initiation of such action,
suit, or proceeding (or part thereof) by the director or officer was authorized
by the board of directors of the corporation.

The corporation shall pay the expenses (including attorney's
fees) incurred by a director or officer of the corporation entitled to
indemnification hereunder in defending any action, suit or proceeding referred
to in this Section 6.1 in advance of its final disposition; provided, however,
that payment of expenses incurred by a director or officer of the corporation in
advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding shall be
made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the director or officer to repay all
amounts advanced if it should ultimately be determined that the director of
officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 6.1 or otherwise.

This Section shall create a right of indemnification for each
person referred to above, whether or not the proceeding to which the
indemnification relates arose in whole or in part prior to the adoption of this
Section, and in the event of death, such right shall extend to such person's
legal representatives. The rights conferred on any person by this Section shall
not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter
acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, these
bylaws, agreement, vote of the stockholders or disinterested directors or
otherwise. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this
Section shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any
person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such
repeal or modification.

6.2 INDEMNIFICATION OF OTHERS

The corporation shall have the power, to the maximum extent and
in the manner permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware as the same
now exists or may hereafter be amended, to indemnify any person (other than
directors and officers) against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in
connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, or
proceeding, in which such person was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party by reason of the fact that such person is or was an employee or agent of
the corporation. For purposes of this Section 6.2, an "employee" or "agent" of
the corporation (other than a director or officer) shall mean any person (i) who
is or was an employee or agent of the corporation, (ii) who is or was serving at
the request of the corporation as an employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, or (iii) who was an
employee or agent of a corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the

corporation.

any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him or
her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or
her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to
indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of the Delaware
General Corporation Law.

ARTICLE VII

RECORDS AND REPORTS

7.1 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF RECORDS

The corporation shall, either at its principal executive office
or at such place or places as designated by the board of directors, keep a
record of its stockholders listing their names and addresses and the number and
class of shares held by each stockholder, a copy of these bylaws as amended to
date, accounting books and other records of its business and properties.

Any stockholder of record, in person or by attorney or other
agent, shall, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, have
the right during the usual hours for business to inspect for any proper purpose
the corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books
and records and to make copies or extracts therefrom. A proper purpose shall
mean a purpose reasonably related to such person's interest as a stockholder. In
every instance where an attorney or other agent is the person who seeks the
right to inspection, the demand under oath shall be accompanied by a power of
attorney or such other writing that authorizes the attorney or other agent to so
act on behalf of the stockholder. The demand under oath shall be directed to the
corporation at its registered office in Delaware or at its principal place of
business.

7.2 INSPECTION BY DIRECTORS

of) the corporation's stock. Any director shall have the right to examine (and
to make copies of) the corporation's stock ledger, a list of its stockholders
and its other books and records for a purpose reasonably related to his or her
position as a director.

7.3 REPRESENTATION OF SHARES OF OTHER CORPORATIONS

The chairman of the board, if any, the president, any vice
president, the chief financial officer, the secretary or any assistant secretary
of this corporation, or any other person authorized by the board of directors or
the president or a vice president, is authorized to vote, represent and exercise
on behalf of this corporation all rights incident to any and all shares of the



14

stock of any other corporation or corporations standing in the name of this
corporation. The authority herein granted may be exercised either by such person
directly or by any other person authorized to do so by proxy or power of
attorney duly executed by such person having the authority.

altered to date, certified by the secretary, shall be kept at the corporation's

ARTICLE VIII

GENERAL MATTERS

8.1 RECORD DATE FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN NOTICE AND VOTING

For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive
payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or the
stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any other lawful
action, the board of directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall
not be more than sixty (60) days before any such action. In that case, only
stockholders of record at the close of business on the date so fixed are
entitled to receive the dividend, distribution or allotment of rights, or to
exercise such rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any
shares on the books of the corporation after the record date so fixed, except as
otherwise provided in the Delaware General Corporation Law.

If the board of directors does not so fix a record date, then the
record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the
close of business on the day on which the board adopts the applicable
resolution.

8.2 CHECKS; DRAFTS; EVIDENCES OF INDEBTEDNESS

From time to time, the board of directors shall determine by
resolution which person or persons may sign or endorse all checks, drafts, other
orders for payment of money, notes or other evidences of indebtedness that are
issued in the name of or payable to the corporation, and only the persons so
authorized shall sign or endorse those instruments.

8.3 CORPORATE CONTRACTS AND INSTRUMENTS: HOW EXECUTED

The board of directors, except as otherwise provided in these
bylaws, may authorize any officer or officers, or agent or agents, to enter into
any contract or execute any instrument in the name of and on behalf of the
corporation; such authority may be general or confined to specific instances.
Unless so authorized or ratified by the board of directors or within the agency
power of an officer, no officer, agent or employee shall have any power or
authority



15

to bind the corporation by any contract or engagement or to pledge its credit or
to render it liable for any purpose or for any amount.

8.4 STOCK CERTIFICATES; TRANSFER; PARTLY PAID SHARES

The shares of the corporation shall be represented by
certificates, provided that the board of directors of the corporation may
provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or
series of its stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall
not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is
surrendered to the corporation. Notwithstanding the adoption of such a
resolution by the board of directors, every holder of stock represented by
certificates and, upon request, every holder of uncertificated shares, shall be
entitled to have a certificate signed by, or in the name of the corporation by,
the chairman or vice-chairman of the board of directors, or the president or any
vice president, and by the treasurer or an assistant treasurer, or the secretary
or an assistant secretary of such corporation representing the number of shares
registered in certificate form. Any or all of the signatures on the certificate
may be a facsimile.

In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed
or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate has ceased to be
such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued, it
may be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if he or she were such
officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

Certificates for shares shall be of such form and device as the
board of directors may designate and shall state the name of the record holder
of the shares represented thereby; its number; date of issuance; the number of
shares for which it is issued; a summary statement or reference to the powers,
designations, preferences or other special rights of such stock and the
qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights,
if any; a statement or summary of liens, if any; a conspicuous notice of
restrictions upon transfer or registration of transfer, if any; a statement as
to any applicable voting trust agreement; if the shares be assessable, or, if
assessments are collectible by personal action, a plain statement of such facts.

Upon surrender to the secretary or transfer agent of the
corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by proper
evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer, it shall be the
duty of the corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled
thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books.

The corporation may issue the whole or any part of its shares as
partly paid and subject to call for the remainder of the consideration to be
paid therefor. Upon the face or back of each stock certificate issued to
represent any such partly paid shares, or upon the books and records of the
corporation in the case of uncertificated partly paid shares, the total amount
of the consideration to be paid therefor and the amount paid thereon shall be
stated. Upon the declaration of any dividend on fully paid shares, the
corporation shall declare a dividend upon partly paid shares of the same class,
but only upon the basis of the percentage of the consideration actually paid
thereon.



16

8.5 SPECIAL DESIGNATION ON CERTIFICATES

If the corporation is authorized to issue more than one class of
stock or more than one series of any class, then the powers, the designations,
the preferences and the relative, participating, optional or other special
rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications,
limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth
in full or summarized on the face or back of the certificate that the
corporation shall issue to represent such class or series of stock; provided,
however, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 202 of the General
Corporation Law of Delaware, in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be
set forth on the face or back of the certificate that the corporation shall
issue to represent such class or series of stock a statement that the
corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the
powers, the designations, the preferences and the relative, participating,
optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and
the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or
rights.

8.6 LOST CERTIFICATES

Except as provided in this Section 8.6, no new certificates for
shares shall be issued to replace a previously issued certificate unless the
latter is surrendered to the corporation and cancelled at the same time. The
board of directors may, in case any share certificate or certificate for any
other security is lost, stolen or destroyed, authorize the issuance of
replacement certificates on such terms and conditions as the board may require;
the board may require indemnification of the corporation secured by a bond or
other adequate security sufficient to protect the corporation against any claim
that may be made against it, including any expense or liability, on account of
the alleged loss, theft or destruction of the certificate or the issuance of the
replacement certificate.

8.7 TRANSFER AGENTS AND REGISTRARS

The board of directors may appoint one or more transfer agents or
transfer clerks, and one or more registrars, each of which shall be an
incorporated bank or trust company (either domestic or foreign) who shall be
appointed at such times and places as the requirements of the corporation may
necessitate and the board of directors may designate.

8.8 CONSTRUCTION; DEFINITIONS

Unless the context requires otherwise, the general provisions,
rules of construction, and definitions in the Delaware General Corporation Law
shall govern the construction of these bylaws. Without limiting the generality
of this provision, the singular number includes the plural, the plural number
includes the singular, and the term "person" includes both a corporation and a
natural person.



17

ARTICLE IX

AMENDMENTS

The original or other bylaws of the corporation may be adopted,
amended or repealed by the stockholders entitled to vote or by the board of
directors of the corporation. The fact that such power has been so conferred
upon the directors shall not divest the stockholders of the power, nor limit
their power to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws.

Whenever an amendment or new bylaw is adopted, it shall be copied
in the book of bylaws with the original bylaws, in the appropriate place. If any
bylaw is repealed, the fact of repeal with the date of the meeting at which the
repeal was enacted or the filing of the operative written consent(s) shall be
stated in said book.
