                                   ARTICLE II.
                                     OFFICES

         SECTION 1. PRINCIPAL OFFICES. The Board of Directors shall fix the

office in the State of California.

         SECTION 2. CHANGE IN LOCATION OR NUMBER OF OFFICES. The Board of
Directors may change any office from one location to another or eliminate any
office or offices.

                (a) Special meetings of the shareholders may be called by the
Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board and the President or by the
shareholders upon the request of the holders of shares entitled to cast not less
than 10 percent of the votes at such meeting.

                (b) Any request for the calling of a special meeting of the
shareholders shall (1) be in writing, (2) specify the date and time thereof,
which date shall be not less than 35 nor more than 60 days after receipt of the

proper request to call a special meeting of the shareholders shall cause notice
to be given pursuant to the provisions of Section 4 of this Article III to the
shareholders entitled to vote thereat that a meeting will be held at the date
and time specified by the person or persons calling the meeting. If notice is
not given within 20 days of the receipt of the request, the shareholders making
the request may give notice of such meeting so long as the notice given complies
with the other provisions of this subsection.

                (c) No business may be transacted at a special meeting unless
the general nature thereof was stated in the notice of such meeting.

         SECTION 4. NOTICE OF ANNUAL, SPECIAL OR ADJOURNED MEETINGS.

                (a) Whenever any meeting of the shareholders is to be held, a
written notice of such meeting shall be given in the manner described in
subdivision (d) of this section not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before
the date thereof to each shareholder entitled to vote thereat. The notice shall
state the place, date and hour of the meeting and (1) in the case of a special
meeting, the general nature of the business to be transacted or (2) in the case
of the annual meeting, those matters which the Board of Directors, at the time
of the giving of the notice, intends to present for action by the shareholders.
The notice of any meeting at which directors are to be elected shall include the
name of any nominee or nominees who, at the time of the notice, management
intends to present for election.

                (b) Any proper matter may be presented at an annual meeting for
action. However, any action to approve (1) a contract or transaction in which a
director has a direct or indirect financial interest under Section 310 of the
California Corporations Code (the "Code"), (2) an amendment of the Articles of
Incorporation under Section 902 of the Code, (3) a reorganization of the
Corporation under Section 1201 of the Code, (4) a voluntary dissolution of the
Corporation under Section 1900 of the Code, or (5) a distribution in dissolution
(other than in accordance with the rights of outstanding preferred shares) under
Section 2007 of the Code may be taken only if the notice of the meeting states
the general nature of the matter to be approved.

                  (c) Notice need not be given of an adjourned meeting if the
time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is
taken, except that if the


                                      -2-
   6
adjournment is for more than 45 days or if after the adjournment a new record
date is provided for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting
shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at that meeting.

                (d) Notice of any meeting of the shareholders shall be given
personally, by first class mail, or by telegraph or other written communication,
addressed to the shareholder at his address appearing on the books of the
Corporation or given by him to the Corporation for the purpose of notice; or if
no such address appears or is given, at the place where the principal executive
office of the Corporation is located or by publication at least once in a
newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the principal executive
office is located. Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when
delivered personally to the recipient, deposited in the mail, delivered to a
common carrier for transmission to the recipient or sent by other means of
written communication. An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving
notice may be executed by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary or any transfer
agent of the Corporation giving the notice and shall be prima facie evidence of
the giving of the notice. Such affidavits shall be filed and maintained in the
minute books of the Corporation.

                (e) If any notice or report addressed to the shareholder at his
address appearing on the books of the corporation is returned to the Corporation
by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States
Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice or report to the shareholder at
such address, all future notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly
given without further mailing if the same shall be available for the shareholder
upon his written demand at the principal executive office of the Corporation for
a period of one year from the date of the giving of the notice or report to all
other shareholders.

         SECTION 5. RECORD DATE.

                (a) The Board of Directors may fix a time in the future as a
record date for determination of the shareholders who are (1) entitled to
receive notice of any meeting or to vote thereat, (2) entitled to give written
consent to any corporate action without a meeting, (3) entitled to receive
payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or (4)
entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any other lawful action. The
record date so fixed shall be not more than 60 or less than 10 days prior to the
date of any meeting of the shareholders, or more than 60 days prior to any other
action.

                (b) In the event no record date is fixed:

                    (1) The record date for determining the shareholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall be at the
close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is
given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next
preceding the day on which the meeting is held.


                                      -3-
   7
                     (2) The record date for determining shareholders entitled
to give consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior
action by the Board of Directors has been taken, shall be the day on which the
first written consent is given.

                     (3) The record date for determining shareholders for any
other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of
Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto, or the 60th day prior to the
date of such other action, whichever is later.

                (c) Notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of
the Corporation after the record date, only shareholders of record an the close
of business on the record date are entitled to receive notice and to vote, to
give written consent, to receive a dividend, distribution or allotment of rights
or to exercise rights, as the case may be.

                (d) A determination of shareholders of record entitled to
receive notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall apply to any
adjournment of the meeting unless the Board of Directors fixes a new record date
for the adjourned meeting, but the Board shall fix a now record date if the
meeting is adjourned for more than 45 days from the date set for the original
meeting.

         SECTION 6. QUORUM.

                (a) A majority of the shares entitled to vote at a meeting of
the shareholders, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business thereat.

                (b) The shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at
which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment
notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough shareholders to leave less than a
quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a
majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum.

         SECTION 7. ADJOURNMENT. Any meeting of the shareholders may be
adjourned from time to time whether or not a quorum is present by the vote of a
majority of the shares represented thereat either in person or by proxy. At the
adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business which might have
been transacted at the original meeting.

         SECTION 8. VALIDATION OF ACTIONS TAKEN AT DEFECTIVELY CALLED, NOTICED
                    OR HELD MEETINGS.

                (a) The transactions of any meeting of the shareholders, however
called and noticed and wherever held, are as valid as though had at a meeting
duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum is present either in person
or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the persons
entitled to vote thereat, not present in person or by proxy, signs a written
waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of the meeting or an approval of
the minutes thereof. Any written waiver of notice shall comply with subdivision
(f) of Section 601 of the Code. All such waivers, consents and approvals shall
be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the
meeting.


                                      -4-
   8
                (b) Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a
waiver of notice of and presence at such meeting, except (1) when the person
objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business
because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and (2) that attendance
at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of any
matter required by the Code to be included in the notice but not so included, if
such objection is expressly made at the meeting.

         SECTION 9. VOTING FOR ELECTION OF DIRECTORS.

                (a) Except as provided in subdivision (c) of this section, the
affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly
held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting affirmatively
also constitute at least a majority of the required quorum) shall be the act of
the shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number is required by law or the
Articles of Incorporation.

                (b) Every shareholder complying with subdivision (c) of this
section and entitled to vote at any election of directors may cumulate his votes
and give one candidate a number of votes equal to the number of directors to be
elected multiplied by the number of votes to which his shares are normally
entitled, or distribute his votes on the same principle among as many candidates
as he thinks fit.

                (c) No shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate his votes
(i.e., cast for any candidate a number of votes greater than the number of votes
which such shareholder normally is entitled to cast) unless the candidate's or
candidates name(s) for which he desires to cumulate his votes has or have been
placed in nomination prior to the voting and the shareholder has given notice at
the meeting prior to the voting of his intention to cumulate his votes. If any
one shareholder has given such notice, all shareholders may cumulate their votes
for candidates in nomination.

                (d) Elections for directors may be by voice vote or by ballot
unless any shareholder entitled to vote demands election by ballot at the
meeting prior to the voting, in which case the vote shall be by ballot.

                (e) In any election of directors, the candidates receiving the
highest number of affirmative votes of the shares entitled to be voted for them
up to the number of directors to be elected by such shares are elected as
directors.

         SECTION 10. PROXIES.

                (a) Every person entitled to vote shares may authorize another
person or persons to act with respect to such shares by a written proxy signed
by him or his attorney-in-fact and filed with the Secretary of the Corporation.
A proxy shall be deemed signed if the shareholder's name is placed on the proxy
(whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or
otherwise) by him or his attorney-in-fact.


                                      -5-

                (b) Any validly executed proxy, except a proxy which is
irrevocable pursuant to subdivision (c) of this Section 10, shall continue in
full force and effect until the expiration of the term specified therein or upon
its earlier revocation by the person executing it prior to the vote pursuant
thereto (1) by a writing delivered to the Corporation stating that it is
revoked, (2) by written notice of the death of the person executing the proxy,
delivered to the Corporation, (3) by a subsequent proxy executed by the person
executing the prior proxy and presented to the meeting or (4) as to any meeting,
by attendance at such meeting and voting in person by the person executing the
proxy. No proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11 months from the date
thereof unless otherwise provided in the proxy. The date contained on the form
of proxy shall be deemed to be the date of its execution.

                (c) A proxy which states that it is irrevocable is irrevocable
for the period specified therein subject to the provisions of subdivisions (e)
and (f) of Section 705 of the Code.

         SECTION 11. INSPECTORS OF ELECTION.

                (a) In advance of any meeting of the shareholders, the Board of
Directors may appoint either one or three persons (other than nominees for the
office of director) as inspectors of election to act at such meeting or any
adjournments thereof. If inspectors of election are not so appointed, or if any
person so appointed fails to appear or refuses to act, the chairman of any such
meeting may, and on the request of any shareholder or his proxyholder shall,
appoint inspectors of election (or persons to replace those who so fail or
refuse to act) at the meeting. If appointed at a meeting on the request of one
or more shareholders or the proxyholders thereof, the majority of shares
represented in person or by proxy shall determine whether one or three
inspectors are to be appointed.

                (b) The duties of inspectors of election and the manner of
performance thereof shall be as prescribed in subdivisions (b) and (c) of
Section 707 of the Code.

         SECTION 12. ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT.

                (a) Subject to subdivisions (b) and (c) of this section, any
action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of the shareholders
may be taken without a meeting, without a vote and without prior notice, if a
consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders
of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes which
would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all

written consent of all shares entitled to vote for the election of directors. In

                  (c) Unless the consents of all shareholders entitled to vote
have been solicited in writing, the Secretary of the Corporation shall give
prompt notice of the corporate action approved by the shareholders without a

accordance with the rights of outstanding preferred shares) under Section 2007
of the Code, notice of such approval shall be given at least ten (10) days

                (d) Any shareholder giving a written consent, or his
proxyholder, or a transferee of the shares or a personal representative of the
shareholder or their respective proxyholders, may revoke the consent by a
writing received by the Corporation prior to the time that written consents of
the number of shares required to authorize the proposed action have been filed
with the Secretary of the Corporation, but may not do so thereafter. Such
revocation is effective upon its receipt by the Secretary of the Corporation.

         SECTION 1. NUMBER OF DIRECTORS. The authorized number of directors
shall be not less than three (3) nor more than five (5), the exact number of
directors to be fixed from time to time within such range by a duly adopted
resolution of the Board of Directors or shareholders.

         SECTION 2. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. Directors shall be elected at each
annual meeting of the shareholders.

         SECTION 3. TERM OF OFFICE. Each director, including a director elected

he is elected and until a successor has been elected and qualified.

         SECTION 4. VACANCIES.

                (a) A vacancy on the Board of Directors exists whenever any
authorized position of director is not then filled by a duly elected director,
whether caused by death, resignation, removal, change in the authorized number
of directors or otherwise.

                (b) Except for a vacancy created by the removal of a director,
vacancies on the Board of Directors may be filled by a majority of the directors
then in office, or, if the number of directors then in office is less than a
quorum, by (1) the unanimous written consent of the directors then in office,
(2) the affirmative vote of the majority of the directors then in office at a
meeting held


                                      -7-

pursuant to notice or waivers of notice or (3) a sole remaining director. A
vacancy created by the removal of a director shall be filled only by a person
elected by a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote at a duly held

of the holders of the outstanding shares entitled to vote at such a meeting.

director who has been declared of unsound mind by an order of court or convicted
of a felony.

                (b) Any or all of the directors may be removed without cause if
such removal is approved by a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to
vote; provided, however, that no director may be removed (unless the entire
Board of Directors is removed) whenever the votes cast against his removal, or
not consenting in writing to such removal, would be sufficient to elect such
director if voted cumulatively at an election at which the same total number of
votes were cast (or, if such action is taken by written consent, all shares
entitled to vote were voted) and the entire number of directors authorized at
the time of his most recent election were then being elected; and provided,
further, if the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation provide that the
shareholders of any class or series, voting as a class or series, are entitled
to elect one or more directors, any director so elected may be removed only by
the applicable vote of the shareholders of such class or series.

                (c) Any reduction of the authorized number of directors does not
remove any director prior to the expiration of his term of office.

                (d) A director may not be removed prior to the expiration of his
term of office except as provided in this section and except as ordered by the
superior court of the proper county at the suit at shareholders of at least 10
percent of the outstanding shares of any class.

         SECTION 6. RESIGNATION. Any director may resign effective upon giving
written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the President, the Secretary or the
Board of Directors of the Corporation, unless the notice specifies a later time
for the effectiveness of such resignation. If the resignation is effective at a
future time, a successor may be elected to take office when the resignation
becomes effective.

         SECTION 7. FEES AND COMPENSATION. Directors may be paid for their
services in such capacity a sum in such amounts, at such times and upon such
conditions as may be determined from time to time by resolution of the Board of
Directors and may be reimbursed for their expenses, if any, for attendance at
each meeting of the Board. No such payments shall preclude any director from
serving the Corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation in any
manner therefor.
