ARTICLE III

Purpose.

ARTICLE IV

Authorized Capital. (A) The aggregate number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue is 1,100,000 shares, divided into three (3) classes consisting of 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share ("Preferred Stock"); 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share ("Class A Common Stock"); and 500,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"). Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as "Common Stock".

(B) The following is a statement of the designations, preferences, qualifications, limitations, restrictions and the special or relative rights granted to or imposed upon the shares of each such class, and the authority expressly granted to the Board of Directors of the Corporation to fix any such provisions of the Preferred Stock not fixed in this Certificate.

(1) Class A and Class B Common Stock:Except as otherwise provided herein, all shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will be identical and will entitle the holders thereof to the same rights and privileges.

(a) Dividends.Holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors,providedthat if dividends are declared which are payable in shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, dividends will be declared which are payable at the same rate on each class of Common Stock and the dividends payable in shares of Class A Common Stock will be payable to holders of Class A Common Stock and the dividends payable in shares of Class B Common Stock will be payable to holders of Class B Common Stock.

(b) Conversion.Each record holder of Class A Common Stock will be entitled to convert any or all of such holder's Class A Common Stock into the same number of shares of Class B Common Stock and each record holder of Class B Common Stock will be entitled to convert any or all of the shares of such holder's Class B Common Stock into the same number of shares of Class A Common Stock;provided, however, that at the time of conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock such holder would be permitted, pursuant to applicable law (including, without limitation, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and any other applicable banking laws of the United States of America and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder), to hold the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock which he would hold after giving effect to such conversion.

Each conversion of shares of one class of Common Stock into shares of another class of Common Stock will be effected by the surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares to be converted at the principal office of the Corporation at any time during normal business hours, together with a written notice by the holder of such shares stating the number of shares that any such holder desires to convert into the other class of Common Stock. Such conversion will be deemed to have been effected as of the close of business on the date on which such certificate or certificates have been surrendered and such notice has been received by the Corporation, and at such time the rights of any such holder with respect to the converted class of Common Stock will cease and the person or persons in whose name or names the certificate or certificates for shares of the other class of Common Stock are to be issued upon such conversion will be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares of such other class of Common Stock represented thereby.

Promptly after such surrender and the receipt by the Corporation of the written notice from the holder hereinbefore referred to, the Corporation will issue and deliver in accordance with the surrendering holder's instructions the certificate or certificates for the other class of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion and a certificate representing any shares of Common Stock which were represented by the certificate or certificates delivered to the Corporation in connection with such conversion but which were not converted. The issuance of certificates for the other class of Common Stock upon conversion will be made without charge to the holder or holders of such shares for any issuance tax (except stock transfer taxes) in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Corporation in connection with such conversion.

(c) Transfers.The Corporation will not close its books against the transfer of any share of Common Stock, or of any share of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion of shares of the other class of Common Stock, in any manner that would interfere with the timely conversion of such shares of Common Stock.

(d) Subdivision and Combinations of Shares.If the Corporation in any manner subdivides or combines the outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock, the outstanding shares of the other class of Common Stock will be proportionately subdivided or combined.

(e) Reservation of Shares for Conversion.So long as any shares of any class of Common Stock are outstanding, the Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (or any shares of

Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock which are held as treasury shares), the number of shares sufficient for issuance upon conversion.

(f) Distribution of Assets.In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, holders of Common Stock will be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders after all amounts to which the holders of Preferred Stock are entitled have been paid or set aside in cash for payment.

(g) Voting Rights.Except as otherwise required by law, and subject to the terms of any Preferred Stock, the holders of Class A Common Stock shall have the general right to vote for all purposes, including the election of directors, and shall be entitled to one vote for each share thereof held; provided that holders of Class A Common Stock shall not, except as required by law, have the right to approve amendments to the terms of any Preferred Stock the issuance of which was authorized by the Board of Directors. Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of Class B Common Stock shall have no voting rights.

(h) Merger, etc.In connection with any merger, consolidation, or recapitalization in which holders of Class A Common Stock generally receive, or are given the opportunity to receive, consideration for their shares (a) all holders of Class B Common Stock shall be given the opportunity to receive the same form of consideration for their shares as is received by holders of Class A Common Stock and (b) holders of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the same amount of consideration per share as received by holders of Class A Common Stock.

(2) Preferred Stock:

(a) Issue in Series.Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each such series to have the terms stated herein and in the resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation providing for its issue. All shares of any one series of Preferred Stock will be identical, but shares of different series of Preferred Stock need not be identical or rank equally except insofar as provided by law or herein.

(b) Creation of Series.The Board of Directors is authorized, at any time and from time to time, to provide for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as are stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue thereof adopted by the Board of Directors (as such resolutions may be amended by a resolution or resolutions subsequently adopted by the Board of Directors), and as are not stated and expressed in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation including, but not limited to, determination of any of the following:

(vi) The rights of the shares of the series in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation;

(c) Dividends.Holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of funds legally available for the payment thereof, dividends at the rates fixed by the Board of Directors for the respective series, and no more, before any dividends shall be declared and paid, or set apart for payment, on Common Stock with respect to the same dividend period.

(d) Preference of Liquidation.In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, holders of each series of Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive the amount fixed for such series plus, in the case of any series on which dividends will have been determined by the Board of Directors to be cumulative, an amount equal to all dividends accumulated and unpaid thereon to the date of final distribution whether or not earned or declared before any distribution shall be paid, or set aside for payment, to holders of Common Stock. If the assets of the Corporation are not sufficient to pay such amounts in full, holders of all shares of Preferred Stock will participate in the distribution of assets ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they are entitled or in such order or priority, if any, as will have been fixed in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of the series of Preferred Stock.

3. Dividends.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, unless and until such dividends are declared by the Board of Directors, there shall be no obligation to pay such dividends in cash, provided, that such dividends shall continue to cumulate and shall be paid at the time of repurchase as provided herein if not earlier declared and paid.

At the reasonable request of any Holder (and at the expense of such Holder), the Corporation shall join in the submission to the Internal Revenue Service of a request or a ruling that the dividends paid on Series A Preferred Stock shall be eligible for the dividends received deduction under Section 243(a)(1) of the Code (or any successor provision).

Acapulco Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation"), pursuant to the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby make this Certificate of Designation under the corporate seal of the Corporation and does hereby state and certify that pursuant to the authority expressly vested in the Board of Directors of the Corporation by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors has duly adopted the following resolutions:

RESOLVED, that pursuant to Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (which authorizes 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock par value $.001 per share, an aggregate of 28,944.2 of which shares are issued and outstanding), the Board of Directors hereby fixes the designations and preferences and relative participating, optional and other special rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of one series of Preferred Stock, consisting of 15,000 shares to be designated Series C 15% Cumulative Compounding Participating Preferred Stock.

RESOLVED, that the holders of Series C 15% Cumulative Compounding Participating Preferred Stock, except as otherwise provided by law, shall have and possess the following rights and preferences. Certain capitalized terms used in this Certificate of Designation are defined in paragraph C hereof.

A.: Series C 15% Cumulative Compounding Participating Preferred Stock.

The par value of Series C Preferred Stock shall be $.001 per share.

2.Rank. With respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Corporation, Series C Preferred Stock shall rank senior (a) to (i) all classes of Common Stock of the Corporation; (ii) the Series A 12.5% Cumulative Compounding Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share; (iii) the Series B 13.5% Cumulative Compounding Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share; and (iv) each other class of capital stock or class or series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation after the date hereof the terms of which specifically provide that such class or series shall rank junior to Series C Preferred Stock as to dividend distributions or distributions upon the liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Corporation (each of the securities in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) collectively referred to as "Series C Junior Securities"), (b) on a parity with each other class of capital stock or class or series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation after the date hereof the terms of which do not specifically provide that they rank junior to Series C Preferred Stock or senior to Series C Preferred Stock as to dividend distributions or distributions upon liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Corporation (collectively referred to as "Series C Parity Securities") and (c) junior to each other class of capital stock, or other class or series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation after the date hereof the terms of which specifically provide that such class or series shall rank senior to Series C Preferred Stock as to dividend distributions or distributions upon the liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Corporation (collectively referred to as "Series C Senior Securities").

3.: Dividends.

(a) Each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Director out of funds legally available therefor, cash dividends on each share of Series C Preferred Stock at a rate per annum equal to 15% of the Liquidation Preference of such share. All dividends shall be cumulative, whether or not earned or declared, and shall accrue on a daily basis from the date of issuance of Series C Preferred Stock, and shall be payable annually in arrears on each Dividend Payment Date, commencing on the first Dividend Payment Date after the date of issuance of such Series C Preferred Stock. Each dividend on Series C

Preferred Stock shall be payable to the Holders of record of Series C Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock register of the Corporation on such record date as may be fixed by the Board of Directors, which record date shall not be less than ten nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable Dividend Payment Date. Dividends shall cease to accrue in respect of shares of Series C Preferred Stock on the date of their repurchase by the Corporation unless the Corporation shall have failed to pay the relevant repurchase price on the date fixed for repurchase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, unless and until such dividends are declared by the Board of Directors, there shall be no obligation to pay such dividends in cash;provided,however, that such dividends shall continue to cumulate and shall be paid at the time of repurchase as provided herein if not earlier declared and paid.

(b) All dividends paid with respect to shares of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to paragraph A(3)(a) shall be paid pro rata to the Holders entitled thereto.

(c) Dividends on account of arrears for any past Dividend Period and dividends in connection with any optional or mandatory redemption pursuant to paragraph A(5) hereof may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any regular Dividend Payment Date, to the Holders of record on any date as maybe fixed by the Board of Directors, which date is not more than 30 days prior to the payment of such dividends.

(d) No full dividends shall be declared by the Board of Directors or paid or funds set apart for the payment of dividends or other distributions on any Series C Parity Securities for any period, and no Series C Parity Securities may be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise retired, nor may funds be set apart for such payment, unless (i) full Accumulated Dividends have been paid or set apart for such payment on the Series C Preferred Stock and Series C Parity Securities for all Dividend Periods terminating on or prior to the date of payment of such full dividends or distributions on, or such repurchase or redemption of, such Series C Parity Securities (the "Series C Parity Payment Date") and (ii) an amount equal to a prorated dividend on the Series C Preferred Stock and Series C Parity Securities at the customary dividend rates for such securities for the period from the Dividend Payment Date immediately prior to the Series C Parity Payment Date to the Series C Parity Payment Date have been paid or set apart for payment. In the event that such dividends are not paid in full or set apart for payment with respect to all outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock and of any Series C Parity Securities and funds available for payment of dividends shall be insufficient to permit payment in full to the holders of all such stock of the full preferential amounts to which they are then entitled, then the entire amount available for payment of dividends shall be distributed ratably among all such holders of Series C Preferred Stock and of any Series C Parity Securities in proportion to the full amount to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

(e) The Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive the dividends provided for in paragraph A(3)(a) hereof in preference to and in priority over any dividends upon any of the Series C Junior Securities, so that if at any time full Accumulated Dividends on all shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding have not been paid for all Dividend Periods then elapsed and a prorated dividend on the Series C Preferred Stock at the rate aforesaid from the Dividend Payment Date immediately preceding the Series C Junior Payment Date (as defined below) to the Series C Junior Payment Date have not been paid or set aside for payment, the amount of such unpaid dividends shall be paid before any sum shall be set aside for or applied by the Corporation to the purchase, redemption or other acquisition for value of any shares of Series C Junior Securities (either pursuant to an applicable sinking fund requirement or otherwise) or any dividend or other distribution shall be paid or declared and set apart for payment on any Series A Junior Securities (the date of such actions to be referred to as the "Series C Junior Payment Date"). In addition to the dividends described in paragraph A(3)(a) above, if the Corporation pays a dividend on shares of Common Stock, the Corporation shall, at the same time,

pay a divided to the Holders of all the outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock in an amount equal to forty (40%) percent of the amount of such dividend paid with respect to the Common Stock, such dividend to be paid to each such Holder pro rata according to the number of shares held by each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock;provided,however, that unless approved in advance by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock, no dividends shall be declared by the Board of Directors or paid or funds set apart for the payment of dividends or other distributions on any Series C Junior Securities for any period, and no Series C Junior Securities may be repurchased, redeemed or otherwise retired, nor may funds be set apart for such payment, while any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding;provided,further,however, that nothing contained in this paragraph 3 (e) shall prohibit the Corporation from repurchasing shares of Series C Junior Securities from a Holder who is, or was, an employee of the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation).

(f) Dividends payable on Series C Preferred Stock for any period less than one year shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and the actual number of days elapsed in the period for which such dividends are payable.

(g) The Corporation shall not claim any deduction from gross income for dividends paid on Series C Preferred Stock in any Federal income tax return, claim for refund, or other statement, report or submission made to the Internal Revenue Service, and shall make any election or take any similar action to effectuate the foregoing except, in each case, if there shall be a change in law such that the Corporation may claim such dividends as deductions from gross income without affecting the ability of the Holders to claim the dividends received deduction under Section 243(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") (or any successor provision). At the reasonable request of any Holder (and at the expense of such Holder), the Corporation shall join in the submission to the Internal Revenue Service of a request for a ruling that the dividends paid on Series C Preferred Stock shall be eligible for the dividends received deduction under Section 243(a)(1) of the Code (or any successor provision). In addition, the Corporation shall cooperate with any Holder (at the expense of such Holder) in any litigation, appeal or other proceeding relating to the eligibility for the dividends received deduction under Section 243(a)(1) of the Code (or any successor provision) of any dividends (within the meaning of Section 316(a) of the Code or any successor provision) paid on Series C Preferred Stock. To the extent possible, the principles of this paragraph A(3)(g) shall also apply with respect to state and local income taxes.

4.: Liquidation Preference.

(a) Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the Holders of all shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders an amount in cash equal to the Liquidation Preference per share plus an amount equal to a prorated dividend from the last Dividend Payment Date to the date fixed for liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, before any distribution is made on say Series C Junior Securities. If upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the application of all amounts available for payments with respect to Series C Preferred Stock and all other Series C Parity Securities would not result in payment in full of Series C Preferred Stock and such other Series C Parity Securities, the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock and holders of Series C Parity Securities shall share equally and ratably in any distribution of assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full Liquidation Preference to which each is entitled.

(b) After payment of the full preferential amounts payable to the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to paragraph A(4)(a) hereof and preferential payments to holders of any other series of preferred stock of the Corporation that ranks senior to the Common Stock as to

distributions upon the liquidation, winding up or dissolution of the Corporation, the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid an amount equal to forty (40%) percent of the assets of the Corporation, if any, remaining that would otherwise be available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock. Such amount shall be paid to the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock pro rata according to the number of shares held by each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock. After payment in full pursuant to paragraph A(4)(a) and this paragraph A(4)(b), the Holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to any further participation in any distribution in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation.

(c) For the purposes of this paragraph A(4), a Change of Control (as defined below) shall be included within the meaning of, and shall be deemed to be, a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, unless the Holders of a majority of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding on the record date, or if there is no record date, the effective date for such Change of Control, agree in writing that such event shall not be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. For purposes hereof, "Change of Control" means, with respect to the Corporation, the occurrence of any of the following: (i) if any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in Section 13(d) and Section 14(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provisions to either of the foregoing) (other than a stockholder who or which owns 5% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation on the Issue Date), including any group acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of securities within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, except that a person will be deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of all shares that any such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the total Voting Stock of the Corporation then outstanding; or (ii) if the Corporation consolidates or merges with or into any other Person, other than a consolidation or merger in which the outstanding Voting Stock of the Corporation remains outstanding or is changed into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property with the effect that the beneficial owners of the Corporation's outstanding Voting Stock immediately before that transaction, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the Voting Stock, measured by the voting power rather than number of shares, of the surviving Person immediately following that transaction; or (iii) upon the sale, transfer, assignment, lease, conveyance or other disposition, directly or indirectly, of all or substantially all the assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries considered as a whole.

5.: Redemption.

(a) Optional Redemption.

(iii) In the event of a redemption pursuant to paragraph A(5)(a) hereof of only a portion of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall effect such redemption pro rata according to the number of shares held by each Holder of Series C Preferred Stock;provided,however, that nothing in this paragraph A(5)(a) shall prohibit the Corporation from repurchasing shares of Series C Preferred Stock from a Holder who is, or was, an employee of the Corporation (or a subsidiary of the Corporation) (and from effecting such redemption only with such Holder).
