(A) Provisions Applicable to Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. (i) The holders of record of Class A Common Stock and the holders of record of Class B Common Stock shall have equal rights and rank per share with respect to any and all dividends and distributions declared on the common stock of the Corporation, and no dividend or distribution shall be declared or made with respect to either Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock unless that dividend or distribution is declared and made with respect to both such classes; except that (subject to conversion rights of any preferred stocks) a dividend or distribution upon Class A Common Stock which will be paid in shares of common stock of the Corporation shall be declared and made only in shares of Class A Common Stock and a dividend or distribution upon Class B Common Stock which will be paid in shares of common stock of the Corporation shall be declared and made only in shares of Class B Common Stock, and if a dividend or distribution is so declared and paid in shares of one class of common stock to the holder of each share of that class, a per-share dividend or distribution in an equal number of shares of the other class of common stock shall be concurrently declared and paid to the holder of each share of such other class, so that the number of shares of Class A Common Stock paid as a dividend or distribution on a share of Class A Common Stock shall be equal to the number of shares of Class B Common Stock paid as a dividend or distribution on a share of Class B Common Stock. (ii) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or any winding up of the Corporation, each share of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall rank equally with respect to any distribution to be received by holders of common stock upon or with respect to liquidation, dissolution or winding up. (B) Provisions Applicable to Class A Common Stock. (i) The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one-twentieth (1/20th) of one vote per share on all questions presented to the stockholders. In all elections of directors of the Corporation, each holder of Class A Common Stock shall have the right to vote in person or by proxy one-twentieth (1/20th) of one vote for each share of Class A Common Stock held by such holder for as many Persons as there are directors to be elected. No cumulative voting for directors shall be permitted. Any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of the Corporation requiring the affirmative vote of a specified percentage of shares of the Corporation shall be read to give effect to the lesser voting rights of the holders of Class A Common Stock as described above; specifically, a provision that the affirmative vote of a specified percentage of the shares of the Corporation is required shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of that percentage of the aggregate voting power of the Corporation. The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to vote as a separate class (i) on any proposal to amend the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of Class B Common Stock, unless the increased authorization does not exceed the number of shares of Class B Common Stock which must be issued in a proposed stock dividend with respect to shares of Class B Common Stock and which conforms to the requirements set forth in this Article with respect to payment of dividends in stock of this Corporation upon shares of Class B Common Stock and Class A Common Stock and (ii) as required by applicable law. (ii) The Class A Common Stock is not convertible into shares of Class B Common Stock, unless the number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock falls below 5% of the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and Class A Common Stock. At such time, all of the outstanding Class A Common Stock will be converted automatically into shares of Class B Common Stock on a share-for-share basis. For purposes of this Article 4(a)(B)(ii), "outstanding" shares of Common Stock would not include shares of Class B Common Stock or shares of Class A Common Stock repurchased by the Corporation and not reissued. (C) Provisions Applicable to Class B Common Stock.

In all elections of directors of the Corporation, each holder of Class B Common Stock shall have the right to vote in person or by proxy the number of shares of Class B Common Stock held by such holder for as many Persons as there are directors to be elected. No cumulative voting for directors shall be permitted. The holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to vote as a separate class where required by applicable law. If any share of Class B Common Stock is ineligible to vote by reason of the limitations contained in paragraph (c)(ii) of this Article 4(a), that share will be excluded from the determination of the total shares eligible to vote for any purpose for which a vote of shareholders is taken. (ii) The voting rights of holders of shares of Class B Common Stock are subject to the following restrictions: If a Person acquires more than 15% (the "15% Threshold Amount") of the outstanding Class B Common Stock after August 5, 1995 (the "Threshold Date") and does not acquire after the Threshold Date a percentage of the Class A Common Stock outstanding at least equal to the percentage of Class B Common Stock acquired by that Person after the Threshold Date in excess of the 15% Threshold Amount, such Person will not be allowed to vote shares of Class B Common Stock acquired after the Threshold Date in excess of the 15% Threshold Amount. The inability of the Person to vote the shares of Class B Common Stock in excess of the 15% Threshold Amount will continue until such time as a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock have been acquired by the Person. For purposes of calculating the 15% Threshold Amount, the following acquisitions and increases shall be excluded: (i) shares of Class B Common Stock held by any Person on the Threshold Date, (ii) an increase in a holder's percentage ownership of Class B Common Stock resulting solely from a change in the total number of shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding as a result of a repurchase of Class B Common Stock by the Corporation since the last date on which that holder acquired Class B Common Stock, (iii) acquisitions of Class B Common Stock (1) made pursuant to contracts existing prior to the Threshold Date, including the acquisition of Class B Common Stock pursuant to the conversion provisions of Class A Preferred Stock outstanding prior to the Threshold Date, (2) by bequest or inheritance, or by operation of law upon the death or incompetency of any individual and (3) by any other transfer made without valuable consideration, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing the restrictions imposed by the 15% Threshold Amount. A gift made to any Person who is related to the donor by blood or marriage, a gift made to a charitable organization qualified under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or a successor provision and a gift to a Person who is a fiduciary solely for the benefit of, or which is owned entirely by, one or more of the following persons or entities: (1) a person who is related to the donor by blood or marriage, or (2) a charitable organization which is qualified under Section 501(c)(3) as described above shall be presumed to be made in good faith and not for purposes of circumventing the restrictions imposed by the 15% Threshold Amount. Acquisitions of Class A Common Stock so as to preclude the effect of the voting restrictions contained in the preceding paragraph must be made for an "equitable price." For purposes of this paragraph an "equitable price" is deemed to have been paid only when the shares of Class A Common Stock have been acquired at a price at least equal to the greater of (i) the highest per share price paid by the acquiring Person, in cash or non-cash consideration, for any Class B Common Stock acquired within the 60-day periods preceding and following the acquisition of the Class A Common Stock or (ii) the highest closing market sale price of Class B Common Stock during the 30-day periods preceding and following the acquisition of the Class A Common Stock. The value of any non-cash consideration will be determined by the Board of Directors acting in good faith. The highest closing market sale price of a share of Class B Common Stock will be the highest closing sale price reported by the principal trading market for either class of Common Stock. As used in this Article 4(a)(C)(ii): "Person" shall include one or more persons and entities who act or agree to act in concert with respect to the acquisition or disposition of Class B Common Stock or with respect to proposing or effecting a plan or proposal to (a) a merger, reorganization or liquidation of the Corporation or a sale of a material amount of its assets, (b) a change in the Corporation's Board of Directors or management, including any plans or proposal to fill vacancies on the Board of Directors or change the number or term of Directors, (c) a material change in the business or corporate structure of the Corporation, or (d) any material change in the capitalization or dividend policy of the Corporation. As used in the preceding sentence, "act or agree to act in concert" shall not include acts or agreements to act by persons pursuant to their official capacities as Directors or officers of the Corporation or because they are related by blood or marriage. Each reference to acquiring or acquisition of Class B Common Stock and Class A Common Stock shall include direct and indirect acquisitions of such stock. (iii) The holders of Class B Common Stock shall have the right, at their option, to convert such shares into shares of Class A Common Stock at any time after the issuance thereof, on a share-per-share basis. The conversion rights in the preceding sentence shall expire upon the occurrence of the automatic conversion of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into Class B Common Stock pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (B)(ii) of this Article 4(a). In order to convert shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock, the holder thereof shall surrender at the office of the Corporation the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed to the Corporation or in blank, and give written notice at such office that he elects to convert such shares of Class B Common Stock which shall be deemed to have been converted as of the date (hereinafter called the "Class A Conversion Date") of the surrender of such shares for conversion as provided above, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Class A Common Stock on such date.

Such cash dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock are to be cumulative so that, if for any year or years cash dividends at the rate of six percent (6%) per share per annum are not declared and paid or set apart for payment on such Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock outstanding, the deficiency shall be declared and paid or set apart for payment prior to the making of any dividend or other distribution on the common stock, such cash dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock to accrue from the date of issue if that be a dividend date, otherwise from the dividend date next preceding the date of issue of such Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock. Upon the payment or setting apart for payment of all dividends current and accumulated at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum upon the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock, the directors may declare and pay dividends in order of priority upon shares junior to the said Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock. (B) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or any winding up of the Corporation, the holders of record of the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid the full par value of such issue of Preferred Stock plus accumulated dividends thereon to the date of such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether or not the Corporation shall have a surplus or earnings available for dividends, and no more before any distribution of any assets shall be made to the holders of any class of common stock or other shares junior to the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock. (C) The Corporation at its option may redeem the whole or any part, pro rata or by lot, of the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock outstanding at any time by paying therefor in cash one hundred percent (100%) of the par value thereof plus accumulated dividends thereon to the date fixed for such redemption by mailing notice of such redemption to the holders of such Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective addresses as such addresses may appear on the stock books of the Corporation, specifying the time and place of redemption at the office of the Corporation, such notice to be mailed at least thirty (30) days and not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date specified therein for redemption.

Such dividends shall be payable after all past and current dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock and the Preferred Stock Without Par Value have been declared and paid, or a sum sufficient therefor has been set aside for that purpose, and before any dividends (other than a stock dividend in shares of the same class of stock) on any class of common stock shall be paid or set apart for payment or any shares of such stock shall be acquired for consideration. Dividends shall be cumulative from and after the date of issue of such shares, but any arrearages in payment shall not bear interest. (ii) Redemption. Provided that dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock and the Preferred Stock Without Par Value have been paid or a sum set aside for payment, the Corporation, at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem all or any part of the 10% Voting Preferred Stock at any time outstanding, at any time or from time to time, upon notice duly given as hereinafter provided for an amount in respect of each share to be redeemed equal to the sum of $0.25 and an amount computed at the annual rate of $.025 per annum per share from and after the date on which dividends on such share became cumulative to and including the date fixed for such redemption, less the aggregate of the dividends theretofore and on such redemption date paid, but computed without interest. Notice of every such redemption of 10% Voting Preferred Stock shall be mailed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for such redemption to the holders of record of shares so to be redeemed at their respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the Corporation. In case of redemption of a part only of the 10% Voting Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected in such manner as the Board of Directors may determine, whether by lot or by pro rata redemption or by selection of particular shares, and the proceedings and actions of the Board of Directors in this connection shall not be subject to attack except for fraud. (iii) Voting. The holders of 10% Voting Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of such stock on all questions presented to the stockholders of the Corporation. (iv) Conversion. The holders of 10% Voting Preferred Stock shall have the right, at their option, to convert such shares into shares of common stock, $0.25 par value, at any time after the issuance thereof, on and subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) The 10% Voting Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the office of the Corporation or at such other office or offices, if any, as the Board of Directors may designate, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/10 of a share) at the conversion rate, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion. The conversion rate shall be one (l) share of Class A Common Stock and one (1) share of Class B Common Stock for every twenty (20) shares of 10% Voting Preferred Stock. In case the Corporation shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of common stock into a greater number of shares or shall pay in shares of common stock a dividend on then outstanding shares of common stock, the number of shares of common stock into which the 10% Voting Preferred Stock is convertible shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case the Corporation shall at any time combine its outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of shares of common stock into which the 10% Voting Preferred Stock is convertible shall be proportionately reduced. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation, or any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with another corporation, shall be effected, the holder of 10% Voting Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled upon the exercise of conversion rights to receive the number and kind of shares of stock, securities or assets which the holder would have been entitled to receive in connection with such reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation if he had been a holder of the number of shares of common stock of the Corporation issuable upon the conversion of his 10% Voting Preferred Stock immediately prior to the time such reorganization, recapitalization, merger, or consolidation became effective. No adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any dividends accrued on the shares of 10% Voting Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion or on account of any dividend on the shares of common stock issued on such conversion. (b) In order to convert shares of 10% Voting Preferred Stock into shares of common stock, the holder thereof shall surrender at the office of the Corporation the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed to the Corporation or in blank, and give written notice at such office that he elects to convert such shares of 10% Voting Preferred Stock which shall be deemed to have been converted as of the date (hereinafter called the "Conversion Date") of the surrender of such shares for conversion as provided above, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such common stock on such date. As soon as practicable on or after the Conversion Date, the Corporation will deliver at such office a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of common stock issuable on such conversion, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided, to the persons entitled to receive the same. In case shares of 10% Voting Preferred Stock are called for redemption, the right to convert such shares shall cease and terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for redemption, unless default shall have been made in the payment of the redemption price. (c) No fractional shares of common stock shall be issued upon conversion, but the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fraction of a share which would otherwise be issuable, in an amount equal to the same fraction of the market price per share of common stock at the close of business on the Conversion Date. The market price per share shall be, (i) if traded on the over-the-counter market, the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations, or (ii) if traded on a national securities exchange, the closing sale price, or (iii) if traded on both the over-the-counter market and an exchange, the mean between the prices determined in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence. (E) Second Series of Class A Preferred Stock. The second series of 400,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall be designated Ten Percent (10%) Cumulative Convertible Voting Preferred Stock3/4Series B, $0.25 stated value (hereinafter called "Series B Preferred Stock"), and shall have the following rights, preferences and limitations: (i) Dividends. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, but only out of surplus legally available for the payment of dividends, cumulative cash dividends at the rate of $.025 per share per annum, and no more, payable on the first days of January and July, commencing July 1, 1985. Such dividends shall be payable after all past and current dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock and the Preferred Stock Without Par Value have been declared and paid, or a sum sufficient therefor has been set aside for that purpose, and before any dividends (other than a stock dividend in shares of the same class of stock) on any class of common stock shall be paid or set apart for payment or any shares of such stock shall be acquired for consideration. Dividends shall be cumulative from and after the date of issue of such shares, but any arrearages in payment shall not bear interest. (ii) Redemption. Provided that dividends on the Six Percent (6%) Voting Cumulative Preferred Stock and the Preferred Stock without Par Value have been paid or a sum set aside for payment, the Corporation, at the option of the Board of Directors, may redeem all or any part of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time outstanding, at any time or from time to time, upon notice duly given as hereinafter provided for an amount in respect of each share to be redeemed equal to the sum of $0.25; and an amount computed at the annual rate of $.025 per annum per share from and after the date on which dividends on such share became cumulative to and including the date fixed for such redemption, less the aggregate of the dividends theretofore and on such redemption date paid, but computed without interest. Notice of every such redemption of Series B Preferred Stock shall be mailed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for such redemption to the holders of record of shares so to be redeemed at their respective addresses as the same shall appear on the books of the Corporation. In case of redemption of a part only of the Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, the shares to be redeemed shall be selected in such manner as the Board of Directors may determine, whether by lot or by pro rata redemption or by selection of particular shares, and the proceedings and actions of the Board of Directors in this connection shall not be subject to attack except for fraud. (iii) Voting. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of such stock in all questions presented to the stockholders of the Corporation. (iv) Conversion. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right, at their option, to convert such shares into shares of common stock, $0.25 par value, at any time after the issuance thereof, on and subject to the following terms and conditions: (a) The Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the office of the Corporation or at such other office or offices, if any, as the Board of Directors may designate, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (calculated as to each conversion to the nearest 1/10 of a share) at the conversion rate, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion. The conversion rate shall be one (1) share of Class A Common Stock and one (1) share of Class B Common Stock for every thirty (30) shares of Series B Preferred Stock. In case the Corporation shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of common stock into a greater number of shares or shall pay in shares of common stock a dividend on then outstanding shares of common stock, the number of shares of common stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible shall be proportionately increased and, conversely, in case the Corporation shall at any time combine its outstanding shares of common stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of shares of common stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible shall be proportionately reduced. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation, or any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with another corporation, shall be effected, the holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled upon the exercise of conversion rights to receive the number and kind of shares of stock, securities or assets which the holder would have been entitled to receive in connection with such reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation if he had been a holder of the number of shares of common stock of the Corporation issuable upon the conversion of his Series B Preferred Stock immediately prior to the time such reorganization, recapitalization, merger, or consolidation became effective. No adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any dividends accrued on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion or on account of any dividend on the shares of common stock issued on such conversion. (b) In order to convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of common stock, the holder thereof shall surrender at the office of the Corporation the certificate or certificates therefor, duly endorsed to the Corporation or in blank, and give written notice at such office that he elects to convert such shares of Series B Preferred Stock which shall be deemed to have been converted as of the date (hereinafter called the "Conversion Date") of the surrender of such shares for conversion as provided above, and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such common stock on such date. As soon as practicable on or after the Conversion Date, the Corporation will deliver at such office a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of common stock issuable on such conversion, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided, to the persons entitled to receive the same. In case shares of Series B Preferred Stock are called for redemption, the right to convert such shares shall cease and terminate at the close of business on the date fixed for redemption, unless default shall have been made in the payment of the redemption price. (c) No fractional shares of common stock shall be issued upon conversion, but the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of any fraction of a share which would otherwise be issuable, in an amount equal to the same fraction of the market price per share of common stock at the close of business on the Conversion Date. The market price per share shall be, (i) if traded on the over-the-counter market, the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations, or (ii) if traded on a national securities exchange, the closing sale price, or (iii) if traded on both the over-the-counter market and an exchange, the mean between the prices determined in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) of this sentence.

(B) The Board of Directors may authorize the purchase of shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock or any other class of stock or any combination of classes without regard to differences among the classes in price or other terms upon which such shares may be purchased.
