same or any other class or classes of stock of the Corporation

of Preferred Stock or under such circumstances and on such
conditions as the Board of Directors may determine.
(c) (1) After the requirements with respect to preferential dividends
on the Preferred Stock (fixed in accordance with the provisions of
section (b) of this Article Fourth), if any, shall have been met and

may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.
(2) After distribution in full of the preferential amount, if
any, (fixed in accordance with the provisions of section (b)
of this Article Fourth), to be distributed to the holders of
Preferred Stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary
liquidation, distribution or sale of assets, dissolution or
winding-up, of the Corporation, the holders of the Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets
of the Corporation, tangible and intangible, of whatever kind

indebtedness, debentures or other securities convertible into or
exchangeable for stock of the Corporation of any class or series, or
carrying any right to purchase stock of any class or series, but any
such unissued stock, additional authorized issue of shares of any class
or series of stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for

or resolutions adopted pursuant to authority granted in section (b) of
this Article Fourth and the consent, by class or series vote or
otherwise, of the holders of such of the series of Preferred Stock as
are from time to time outstanding shall not be required for the
issuance by the Board of Directors of any other series of Preferred
Stock whether or not the powers, preferences and rights of such other
series shall be fixed by the Board of Directors as senior to, or on a
parity with, the powers, preferences and rights of such outstanding
series, or any of them; provided, however, that the Board of Directors
may provide in the resolution or resolutions as to any series of
Preferred Stock adopted pursuant to section (b) of this Article Fourth
that the consent of the holders of a majority (or such greater
proportion as shall be therein fixed) of the outstanding shares of such
series voting thereon shall be required for the issuance of any or all
other series of Preferred Stock.
(f) Subject to the provisions of section (e), shares of any series of
Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time as the Board of
Directors of the Corporation shall determine and on such terms and for
such consideration as shall be fixed by the Board of Directors.
(g) Shares of Common Stock may be issued from time to time as the Board
of

from time to time by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon.
Fifth: - (a) The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be
conducted and managed by a Board of Directors. The number of directors
constituting the entire Board shall be not less than five nor more than
twenty-five as fixed from time to time by vote of a majority of the
whole Board, provided, however, that the number of directors shall not
be reduced so as to shorten the term of any director at the time in
office, and provided further, that the number of directors constituting
the whole Board shall be twenty-four until otherwise fixed by a
majority of the whole Board.
(b) The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes, as
nearly equal in number as the then total number of directors
constituting the whole Board permits, with the term of office of one
class expiring each year. At the annual meeting of stockholders in
1982, directors of the first class shall be elected to hold office for
a term expiring at the next succeeding annual meeting, directors of the
second class shall be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the
second succeeding annual meeting and directors of the third class shall
be elected to hold office for a term expiring at the third succeeding
annual meeting. Any vacancies in the Board of Directors for any reason,
and any newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the
directors, may be filled by the Board of Directors, acting by a
majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum,
and any directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual
election of directors. At such election, the stockholders shall elect a
successor to such director to hold office until the next election of
the class for which such director shall have been chosen and until his
successor shall be elected and qualified. No decrease in the number of
directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of
directors (considered for this purpose as one class) cast at a meeting
of the stockholders called for that purpose.
(d) Nominations for the election of directors may be made by the Board
of Directors

Secretary of the Corporation not less than 14 days nor more than 50
days prior to any meeting of the stockholders called for the election
of directors; provided, however, that if less than 21 days' notice of
the meeting is given to stockholders, such written notice shall be
delivered or mailed, as prescribed, to the Secretary of the Corporation
not later than the close of the seventh day following the day on which
notice of the meeting was mailed to stockholders. Notice of nominations
which are proposed by the Board of Directors shall be given by the
Chairman on behalf of the Board.
(e) Each notice under subsection (d) shall set forth (i) the name, age,
business address and, if known, residence address of each nominee
proposed in such notice, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of
such nominee and (iii) the number of shares of stock of the Corporation
which are beneficially owned by each such nominee.

and declare to the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance
with the foregoing procedure, and if he should so determine, he shall
so declare to the meeting and the defective nomination shall be
disregarded.
(g) No action required to be taken or which may be taken at any annual
or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be taken
without a meeting, and the power of stockholders to consent in writing,
without a meeting, to the taking of any action is specifically denied.
Sixth: - The Directors shall choose such officers, agents and servants
as may be provided in the By-Laws as they may from time to time find
necessary or proper.

amended.

of the business and affairs of the Corporation, and shall have power to
authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed to all papers which
may require it.
