STOCKHOLDERS
Section 1.1 Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of the stockholders, for
the election of directors to succeed those whose terms expire and for the
transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting,
shall be held at such place, on such date, and at such time as the Board of
Directors shall each year fix, which date shall be within thirteen months
subsequent to the later of the date of incorporation or the last annual meeting
of stockholders.
Section 1.2 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the stockholders, for
any purpose or purposes prescribed in the notice of the meeting, may be called
only (i) by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a
majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there
exists any vacancies in previously authorized directorships at the time any such
resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for adoption) or (ii) by the
holders of not less than 10% of all shares entitled to cast votes at the
meeting, voting together as a single class and shall be held at such place, on
such date, and at such time as they shall fix. Business transacted at special
meetings shall be confined to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice.
Upon request in writing sent by registered mail to the president or
chief executive officer by any stockholder or stockholders entitled to call a
special meeting of stockholders pursuant to this Section 1.2, the board of
directors shall determine a place and time for such meeting, which time shall be
not less than one hundred twenty (120) nor more than one hundred thirty (130)
days after the receipt of such request, and a record date for the determination
of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting shall be fixed by the board of
directors, in advance, which shall not be more that 60 days nor less than 10
days before the date of such meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other
action. Following such receipt of a request and determination of the validity of
the request, it shall be the duty of the secretary to cause notice to be given
to the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, in the manner set forth in
Section 1.3 hereof, that a meeting will be held at the place and time so
determined. Business transacted at special meetings shall be confined to the
purpose or purposes stated in the notice.
Section 1.3 Notice of Meetings. Written notice of the place, date, and
time of all meetings of the stockholders shall be given, not less than ten (10)
nor more than sixty (60) days before the date on which the meeting is to be
held, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, except as otherwise
provided herein or required by law (meaning, here and hereinafter, as required
from time to time by the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation).
<PAGE> 5
When a meeting is adjourned to another place, date or time, written
notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the place, date and time
thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken;
provided, however, that if the date of any adjourned meeting is more than thirty
(30) days after the date for which the meeting was originally noticed, or if a
new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, written notice of the place,
date, and time of the adjourned meeting shall be given in conformity herewith.
At any adjourned meeting, any business may be transacted which might have been
transacted at the original meeting.
Section 1.4 Quorum. At any meeting of the stockholders, the holders of a
majority of all of the shares of the stock entitled to vote at the meeting,
present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for all purposes,
unless or except to the extent that the presence of a larger number may be
required by law.
If a quorum shall fail to attend any meeting, the chairman of the
meeting or the holders of a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote who
are present, in person or by proxy, may adjourn the meeting to another place,
date, or time.
If a notice of any adjourned special meeting of stockholders is sent to
all stockholders entitled to vote thereat, stating that it will be held with
those present constituting a quorum, then except as otherwise required by law,
those present at such adjourned meeting shall constitute a quorum, and all
matters shall be determined by a majority of the votes cast at such meeting.
Section 1.5 Conduct of the Stockholders' Meeting. At every meeting of
the stockholders, the Chairman, if there is such an officer, or if not, the
President of the Corporation, or in his absence the Vice President designated by
the President, or in the absence of such designation any Vice President, or in
the absence of the President or any Vice President, a chairman chosen by the
majority of the voting shares represented in person or by proxy, shall act as
Chairman. The Secretary of the Corporation or a person designated by the
Chairman shall act as Secretary of the meeting. Unless otherwise approved by the
Chairman, attendance at the stockholders' meeting is restricted to stockholders
of record, persons authorized in accordance with Section 1.8 of these By-laws to
act by proxy, and officers of the Corporation.
Section 1.6 Conduct of Business. The Chairman shall call the meeting to
order, establish the agenda, and conduct the business of the meeting in
accordance therewith or, at the Chairman's discretion, it may be conducted
otherwise in accordance with the wishes of the stockholders in attendance. The
date and time of the opening and closing of the polls for each matter upon which
the stockholders will vote at the meeting shall be announced at the meeting.
The Chairman shall also conduct the meeting in an orderly manner, rule
on the precedence of and procedure on, motions and other procedural matters, and
exercise discretion with respect to such procedural matters with fairness and
good faith toward all those entitled to take part. The Chairman may impose
reasonable limits on the amount of time taken up at the meeting on discussion in
general or on remarks by any one stockholder. Should any person in attendance
become unruly or obstruct the meeting proceedings, the Chairman shall have the
power to have such person removed from participation. Notwithstanding anything
in the By-laws to the contrary, no business shall be conducted at a meeting
except in accordance with the
2
<PAGE> 6
procedures set forth in this Section 1.6 and Section 1.7, below. The Chairman of
a meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that
business was not properly brought before the meeting and in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 1.6 and Section 1.7, and if he should so determine,
he shall so declare to the meeting and any such business not properly brought
before the meeting shall not be transacted.
Section 1.7 Notice of Stockholder Business. At an annual or special
meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have
been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before a
meeting, business must be (a) specified in the notice of meeting (or any
supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, (b)
properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of
Directors, (c) properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, or
(d) properly brought before a special meeting by a stockholder, but if, and only
if, the notice of a special meeting provides for business to be brought before
the meeting by stockholders. For business to be properly brought before a
meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof
in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder
proposal to be presented at an annual meeting shall be received at the
Corporation's principal executive offices not less than 120 calendar days in
advance of the date that the Corporation's (or the Corporation's predecessor's)
proxy statement was released to stockholders in connection with the previous
year's annual meeting of stockholders, except that if no annual meeting was held
in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more
than 30 calendar days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous
year's proxy statement, or in the event of a special meeting, notice by the
stockholder to be timely must be received not later than the close of business
on the tenth day following the day on which such notice of the date of the
meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A stockholder's notice to
the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to
bring before the annual or special meeting (a) a brief description of the
business desired to be brought before the annual or special meeting and the
reasons for conducting such business at the special meeting, (b) the name and
address, as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the stockholder proposing
such business, (c) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are
beneficially owned by the stockholder, and (d) any material interest of the
stockholder in such business.
Section 1.8 Proxies and Voting. At any meeting of the stockholders,
every stockholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy authorized by
an instrument in writing or by a transmission permitted by law filed in
accordance with the procedure established for the meeting. No stockholder may
authorize more than one proxy for his shares.
Each stockholder shall have one vote for every share of stock entitled
to vote which is registered in his or her name on the record date for the
meeting, except as otherwise provided herein or required by law.
All voting, including on the election of directors but excepting where
otherwise required by law, may be by a voice vote; provided, however, that upon
demand therefor by a stockholder entitled to vote or his or her proxy, a stock
vote shall be taken. Every stock vote shall be taken by ballots, each of which
shall state the name of the stockholder or proxy voting and such other
information as may be required under the procedure established for the meeting.
Every vote
3
<PAGE> 7
taken by ballots shall be counted by an inspector or inspectors appointed by the
chairman of the meeting.
All elections shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast, and
except as otherwise required by law, all other matters shall be determined by a
majority of the votes cast.
Section 1.9 Stock List. A complete list of stockholders entitled to vote
at any meeting of stockholders, arranged in alphabetical order for each class of
stock and showing the address of each such stockholder and the number of shares
registered in his or her name, shall be open to the examination of any such
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 place
where the meeting is to be held.
The stock list shall also be kept at the place of the meeting during the
whole time thereof and shall be open to the examination of any such stockholder
who is present. This list shall presumptively determine the identity of the
stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by
each of them.
ARTICLE II
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Section 2.1 Number and Term of Office. The number of directors shall be
not less than one (1) and shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by the
Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total
number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in
previously authorized directorships at the time any such resolution is presented
to the Board for adoption). Upon the closing of the first sale of the
Corporation's common stock pursuant to a firmly underwritten registered public
offering (the "IPO"), the directors shall be divided into three classes, with
the term of office of the first class to expire at the first annual meeting of
stockholders held after the IPO, the term of office of the second class to
expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders held after the IPO, the term
of office of the third class to expire at the third annual meeting of
stockholders held after the IPO and thereafter for each such term to expire at
each third succeeding annual meeting of stockholders after such election. A
vacancy resulting from the removal of a director by the stockholders as provided
in Article II, Section 2.3 below may be filled at special meeting of the
stockholders held for that purpose. All directors shall hold office until the
expiration of the term for which elected and until their respective successors
are elected, except in the case of the death, resignation or removal of any
director.
Section 2.2 Vacancies and Newly Created Directorships. Subject to the
rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, newly
created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of
directors or any vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from death,
resignation, retirement, disqualification or other cause (other than removal
from office by a vote of the stockholders) may be filled only by a majority vote
of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, and directors so
chosen shall hold office for a
4
<PAGE> 8
term expiring at the next annual meeting of stockholders. No decrease in the
number of directors constituting the Board of Directors shall shorten the term
of any incumbent director.
Section 2.3 Removal. Subject to the rights of holders of any series of
Preferred Stock then outstanding, any directors, or the entire Board of
Directors, may be removed from office at any time, with or without cause, but
only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting
power of all of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a
single class. Vacancies in the Board of Directors resulting from such removal
may be filled by a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a
quorum, or by the stockholders as provided in Article II, Section 2.1 above.
Directors so chosen shall hold office until the new annual meeting of
stockholders.
Section 2.4 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be held at such place or places, on such date or dates, and at such time
or times as shall have been established by the Board of Directors and publicized
among all directors. A notice of each regular meeting shall not be required.
Section 2.5 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of Directors
may be called by one-third of the directors then in office (rounded up to the
nearest whole number) or by the chief executive officer and shall be held at
such place, on such date, and at such time as they or he or she shall fix.
Notice of the place, date, and time of each such special meeting shall be given
each director by whom it is not waived by mailing written notice not fewer than
five (5) days before the meeting or by telegraphing or personally delivering the
same not fewer than twenty-four (24) hours before the meeting. Unless otherwise
indicated in the notice thereof, any and all business may be transacted at a
special meeting.
Section 2.6 Quorum. At any meeting of the Board of Directors, a majority
of the total number of authorized directors shall constitute a quorum for all
purposes. If a quorum shall fail to attend any meeting, a majority of those
present may adjourn the meeting to another place, date, or time, without further
notice or waiver thereof.
Section 2.7 Participation in Meetings by Conference Telephone. Members
of the Board of Directors, or of any committee thereof, may participate in a
meeting of such Board or committee by means of conference telephone or similar
communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the
meeting can hear each other and such participation shall constitute presence in
person at such meeting.
Section 2.8 Conduct of Business. At any meeting of the Board of
Directors, business shall be transacted in such order and manner as the Board
may from time to time determine, and all matters shall be determined by the vote
of a majority of the directors present, except as otherwise provided herein or
requited by law. Action may be taken by the Board of Directors without a meeting
if all members thereof consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings
are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors.

and its subsidiaries as it may determine; and
(h) To adopt from time to time regulations, not inconsistent with these
By-laws, for the management of the Corporation's business and affairs.
Section 2.10 Compensation of Directors. Directors, as such, may receive,
pursuant to resolution of the Board of Directors, fixed fees and other
compensation for their services as directors, including, without limitation,
their services as members of committees of the Board of Directors.
Section 2.11 Nomination of Director Candidates. Subject to the rights of
holders of any class or series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, nominations
for the election of Directors may be made by the Board of Directors or a proxy
committee appointed by the Board of Directors or by any stockholder entitled to
vote in the election of Directors generally. However, any stockholder entitled
to vote in the election of Directors generally may nominate one or more persons
for election as Directors at a meeting only if timely notice of such
stockholder's intent to make such nomination or nominations has been given in
writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder
nomination for a director to be elected at an annual meeting shall be received
at the Corporation's principal executive offices not less than 120 calendar days
in advance of the date that the Corporation's (or the Corporation's
Predecessor's) Proxy statement was released to stockholders in connection with
the previous year's annual
6
<PAGE> 10
meeting of stockholders, except that if no annual meeting was held in the
previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by more than 30
calendar days from the date contemplated at the time of the previous year's
proxy statement, or in the event of a nomination for director to be elected at a
special meeting, notice by the stockholders to be timely must be received not
later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which
such notice of the date of the special meeting was mailed or such public
disclosure was made. Each such notice shall set forth: (a) the name and address
of the stockholder who intends to make the nomination and of the person or
persons to be nominated; (b) a representation that the stockholder is a holder
of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote for the election of
Directors on the date of such notice and intends to appear in person or by proxy
at the meeting to nominate the person or persons specified in the notice; (c) a
description of all arrangements or understandings between the stockholder and
each nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons)
pursuant to which the nomination or nominations are to be made by the
stockholder; (d) such other information regarding each nominee proposed by such
stockholder as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed
pursuant to the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, had the
nominee been nominated, or intended to be nominated, by the Board of Directors;
and (e) the consent of each nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation if
so elected.
In the event that a person is validly designated as a nominee in
accordance with this Section 2.11 and shall thereafter become unable or
unwilling to stand for election to the Board of Directors, the Board of
Directors or the stockholder who proposed such nominee, as the case may be, may
designate a substitute nominee upon delivery, not fewer than five days prior to
the date of the meeting for the election of such nominee, of a written notice to
the Secretary setting forth such information regarding such substitute nominee
as would have been required to be delivered to the Secretary pursuant to this
Section 2.11 had such substitute nominee been initially proposed as a nominee.
Such notice shall include a signed consent to serve as a director of the
Corporation, if elected, of each such substitute nominee.
If the chairman of the meeting for the election of Directors determines
that a nomination of any candidate for election as a Director at such meeting
was not made in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Section 2.11,
such nomination shall be void; provided, however, that nothing in this Section
2.11 shall be deemed to limit any voting rights upon the occurrence of dividend
arrearages provided to holders of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Preferred
Stock designation for any series of Preferred Stock.
ARTICLE III

Directors, by a vote of a majority of the whole Board, may from time to time

committee shall consist of one or two members, in which event one member shall
constitute a quorum; and all matters shall be determined by a majority vote of
the members present. Action may be taken by any committee without a meeting if
all members thereof consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are
filed with the minutes of the proceedings of such committee.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 8.1 Right to Indemnification. Each person who was or is made a
party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
("proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he or
she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the
Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director
or officer of another corporation, or of a Partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans,
whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity
as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or
officer, shall be indemnified, and with respect to employees generally, may be
indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent
authorized by Delaware Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but,
in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment
permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said Law
permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment) against all
expenses,
11

liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise
taxes or penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and amounts
expended in seeking indemnification granted to such person under applicable law,
this By-law or any agreement with the Corporation) reasonably incurred or
suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall
inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators;
provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 8.2 of this Article VIII,
the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnity in connection
with an action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person
only if (a) such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (b)
the action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation, (c) such indemnification is provided by the
Corporation, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the
Corporation under the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (d) the action, suit
or proceeding (or part thereof) is brought to establish or enforce a right to
indemnification under an indemnity agreement or any other statute or law or
otherwise as required under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Such right shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by
the Corporation expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of
its final disposition; provided, however, that, unless the Delaware General
Corporation Law then so prohibits, the payment of such expenses incurred by a
director or officer of the Corporation in his or her capacity as a director or
officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is tendered by
such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation. service
to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of such
proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an
undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts
so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such director or officer
is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise.
Section 8.2 Right of Claimant to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 1
of this Article VIII is not paid in full by the Corporation within ninety (90)
days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, the claimant
may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the
unpaid amount of the claim and, if such suit is not frivolous or brought in bad
faith, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting
such claim. The burden of proving such claim shall be on the claimant. It shall
be a defense to any such action (other then an action brought to enforce a claim
for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered to this
Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct which make
it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the Corporation to
indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. Neither the failure of the
Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such
action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances
because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the
Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by the Corporation
(including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its
stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that claimant has not
met the applicable standard of conduct.

Section 8.3 Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any
person in Sections 1 and 2 shall not be exclusive of any other right which such
persons may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation, By-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise.
Section 8.4 Indemnification Contracts. The Board of Directors is
authorized to enter into a contract with any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation, or any person serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including employee
benefit plans, providing for indemnification rights equivalent to or, if the
Board of Directors so determinates, greater than, those provided for in this
Article VIII.
Section 8.5 Insurance. The Corporation shall maintain insurance to the
extent reasonably available, at its expense, to protect itself and any such
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense,
liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware
General Corporation Law.
Section 8.6 Effect of Amendment. Any amendment, repeal or modification
of any provision of this Article VIII by the stockholders and the directors of
the Corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director
or officer of the Corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or
modification.
ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENTS
Section 9.1 Amendment of By-laws. The Board of Directors is expressly
empowered to adopt, amend or repeal By-laws of the Corporation. Any adoption,
amendment or repeal of By-laws of the Corporation by the Board of Directors
shall require the approval of a majority of the total number of authorized
directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized
directorships at the time any resolution providing for adoption, amendment or
repeal is presented to the Board). The stockholders shall also have power to
adopt, amend or repeal the By-laws of the Corporation. Any adoption, amendment
or repeal of By-Laws of the Corporation by the stockholders shall require, in
addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the
Corporation required by law or by this Certificate of Incorporation, 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
capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors, voting together as a single class.
