(30%) of the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of
directors of the Company (the "Voting Shares")(such 30% or greater percentage

Change of Control will occur as a result of an acquisition of stock by the
Company which increases, proportionately, the stock representing the voting
power of the Company owned by such person or group above the Voting Share
Percentage, and provided further that if such person or group acquires stock
representing more than the Voting Share Percentage by reason of share purchases
by the Company, and after such share purchases by the Company acquires any
additional shares representing voting power of the Company, then a Change of
Control shall occur;
(ii) the shareholders of the Company shall approve any merger
or other business combination of the Company, sale of the Company's assets or
combination of the foregoing transactions (a "Transaction") other than a
Transaction involving only the Company, one or more of its Subsidiaries, or a
Transaction immediately following which the shareholders of the Company
immediately prior to the Transaction continue to have a majority of the voting
power in the resulting entity; or

(iii) within any 24-month period beginning on or after the
Effective Date, the persons who were directors of the Company immediately before
the beginning of such period (the "Incumbent Directors") shall cease (for any
reason other than death) to constitute at least a majority of the Board of
Directors or the board of directors of any successor to the Company, provided
that any director who was not a director as of the Effective Date shall be
deemed to be an Incumbent Director if such director was elected to the Board of
Directors by, or on the recommendation of or with the approval of, at least
two-thirds of the directors who then qualified as Incumbent Directors either
actually or by prior operation of this clause (iii); and provided further that
any director elected to the Board of Directors to avoid or settle a threatened

Director."
