States mail addressed to the shareholder at his address as it appears on the
share transfer records of the Corporation.
(b) Notice may be waived in writing signed by the person or persons
entitled to such notice. Such waiver may be executed at any time before or after
the holding of such meeting. Attendance at a meeting shall constitute a waiver

to the transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not
lawfully called.
(c) Any notice required to be given to any shareholder, under any
provision of the Texas Business Corporation Act, as amended (the "Act"), the

if (1) notice of two consecutive annual meetings and all notices of meetings
held during the period between those annual meetings, if any, or (2) all (but in
no event less than two) payments (if sent by first class mail) of distributions
or interest on securities during a 12-month period have been mailed to that
person, addressed at his address as shown on the records of the Corporation, and

notice to such a person shall have the same force and effect as if the notice
had been duly given and, if the action taken by the Corporation is reflected in
any articles or document filed with the Secretary of State, those articles or
that document may state that notice was duly given to all persons to whom notice
was required to be given. If such a person delivers to the Corporation a written
notice setting forth his then current address, the requirement that notice be
given to that person shall be reinstated.

notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any adjournment thereof,
or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, the board of directors may in
advance establish a record date which must be at least 10 but not more than 60
days prior to such meeting. If the board of directors fail to establish a record
date, the record date shall be the date on which notice of the meeting is
mailed.

shares of the Corporation shall make, at least ten days before each meeting of

meeting or any adjournment thereof, arranged in alphabetical order, with the
address of and the number of shares held by each, which list, for a period of
ten days prior to such meeting, shall be kept on file at the registered office
of the Corporation and shall be subject to inspection by any shareholder at any
time during usual business hours. Such list shall also be produced and kept open
at the time and place of the meeting and shall be subject to the inspection of
any shareholder during the whole time of the meeting. The original stock
transfer book shall be prima facie evidence as to who are the shareholders
entitled to examine such list or transfer books or vote at any meeting of
shareholders.

affect the validity of any action taken at such meeting.

shall fail to prepare the list of shareholders or keep the same on file for a
period of ten days, or produce and keep it open for inspection as provided in
this section, shall be liable to any shareholder suffering damage on account of
such failure, to the extent of such damage. In the event that such officer or
agent does not receive notice of a meeting of shareholders sufficiently in
advance of the date of such meeting reasonably to enable him to comply with the
duties prescribed by these Bylaws, the Corporation, but not such officer or
agent shall be liable to any shareholder suffering damage on account of such
failure, to the extent of such damage.
2.6 QUORUM OF SHAREHOLDERS. With respect to any matter, a quorum shall
be present at a meeting of shareholders if the holders of a majority of the
shares entitled to vote on that matter are represented at the meeting, in person
or by proxy, unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation in
accordance with the Act. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of
Incorporation, the shareholders represented in person or by proxy at a meeting
of shareholders at which a quorum is not present may adjourn the meeting until
such time and to such place as may be determined by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at that meeting.
2.7 WITHDRAWAL OF QUORUM. Unless otherwise provided in the Articles of
Incorporation, once a quorum is present at a meeting of shareholders, the
shareholders represented in person or by proxy at the meeting may conduct such
business as may properly be brought before the meeting until it is adjourned,
and the subsequent withdrawal from the meeting of any shareholder or the refusal
of any shareholder represented in person or by proxy to vote shall not effect
the presence of a quorum at the meeting.
2.8 VOTING ON MATTERS OTHER THAN THE ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. With respect
to any matter, other than the election of directors or a matter for which the
affirmative vote of the holders of a specified portion of the shares entitled to
vote is required by the Act, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority
of the shares entitled to vote on that matter and represented in person or by
proxy at a meeting of shareholders at which a quorum is present shall be the act
of the shareholders, unless otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation.
2.9 VOTING IN THE ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. Directors shall be elected in
the manner provided in the Articles of Incorporation.
2.10 METHOD OF VOTING. The holders of outstanding shares of capital

taken without a meeting if consents in writing setting forth the action to be
taken are signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the
number of votes that would be necessary to authorize such action at a meeting at
which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted are delivered
to the Corporation. Any party desiring to present a matter to the shareholders
for written consent shall give notice to the Secretary of the Corporation not
less than 60 days prior to the date the consent solicitation is to be initiated.
The Board may fix the record date for determining the shareholders who shall be
entitled to vote on the matter presented for written consent at any time prior
to the date such consent solicitation is to be initiated. The Board may also fix
the expiration date of the consent solicitation period. In the event that the
Board does not set a record date, the record date will be the date of the first
consent. Upon receipt of a written consent from any shareholder, the Corporation
shall determine the validity of such consent. Any shareholder's written consent
that cannot be validated within 10 days of the expiration of the consent
solicitation period shall be deemed invalid, and shall not be counted in
determining whether the requisite number of votes for the matter presented for
consent have been obtained.
(b) A telegram, telex, cablegram, or similar transmission by a
shareholder, or a photographic, photostatic, facsimile, or similar reproduction
of a writing signed by a shareholder, shall be regarded as signed by the
shareholder for purposes of this section.
(c) Prompt notice of the taking of any action by shareholders without a
meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those
shareholders who did not consent in writing to the action.

been filled, and, if not or if the Chairman of the Board is absent or otherwise
unable to act, the President shall preside at all meetings of shareholders. The
Secretary shall keep the records of each meeting of shareholders. In the absence
or inability to act of any such officer, such officer's duties shall be
performed by the officer given the authority to act for such absent or
non-acting officer under these by-laws or by a person appointed by the meeting.
2.13 SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS AT ANNUAL MEETINGS. At an annual meeting of
the shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been

meeting, business must be specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement
thereto) given by or at the direction of the board of directors, otherwise
properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the board of
directors or otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a shareholder. In
addition to any other applicable requirements, for business to be properly

shareholder in such business. Notwithstanding anything in these by-laws to the
contrary, no business shall be conducted at the annual meeting except in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this section 2.13, provided,
however, that nothing in this section 2.13 shall be deemed to preclude
discussion by any shareholder of any business properly brought before the annual
meeting in accordance with said procedure.
2.14 NOMINATIONS OF PERSONS FOR ELECTION TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. In
addition to any other applicable requirements, only persons who are nominated in
accordance with the following procedures shall be eligible for election as
directors. Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the
Corporation may be made at a meeting of shareholders by or at the direction of

Corporation to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a
director of the Corporation. No person shall be eligible for election as a
director of the Corporation unless nominated in accordance with the procedures
set forth herein. These provisions shall not apply to nomination of any persons
entitled to be separately elected by holders of preferred stock.

receive votes, ballots, or consents, hear and determine all challenges and
questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count and tabulate all
votes, ballots, or consents, determine the results, and do such acts as are

of the chairman of the meeting, the inspectors shall make a report in writing of
any challenge, request, or matter determined by them and shall execute a
certificate of any fact found by them. No director or candidate for the office
of director shall act as an inspector of an election of directors. Inspectors

3.2 NUMBER, TERM OF OFFICE AND QUALIFICATIONS. The property and business
of the Corporation shall be managed and controlled by a Board of Directors
consisting of five, six or seven members. The Board of Directors shall be
divided into three classes, to be known as Classes A, B and C, with the term of
office of one class expiring each year at the annual meeting of shareholders. As
of March 8, 2002, the Board of Directors shall have five members, with two
Directors in Class A each to hold office for a term expiring at the 2002 annual
meeting of shareholders, one Director in Class B to hold office for a term
expiring at the 2003 annual meeting of shareholders, and two Directors in Class
C each to hold office for a term expiring at the 2004 annual meeting of
shareholders, or in each case, until his successor has been elected and
qualified. The Board of Directors may be increased or decreased to five, six or
seven Members at any time by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of
the then-current Board of Directors. If the Board of Directors is increased, the
additional Directors shall be in Class B. Except with respect to the election of
Class B Directors whose directorships resulted from an increase in the number of
Directors since the previous annual meeting of shareholders, at each annual
meeting of shareholders, a single class of Directors shall be elected to succeed
the Directors whose terms are expiring at such meeting, such class of Directors
to hold office for a term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of
shareholders. At the first annual meeting of shareholders following an increase
in the number of Class B Directors, Class B Directors shall be elected to
succeed the Class B Directors whose terms are expiring at such meeting as
provided in Section 3.3 or to fill any directorship created by an increase in
the number of Class B Directors, such class of Directors to hold office for a
term expiring at the third succeeding annual meeting of shareholders or, if
shorter, the expiration of the terms of the other Class B Directors. In no event
shall any decrease in the Board of Directors have the effect of shortening the
term of

an incumbent Director. Directors need not be residents of the State of Texas or
shareholders of the Corporation.

increase in the number of Directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of at
least two-thirds (2/3) of the then-current Board of Directors, for a special
term of office continuing only until the next election of any class of Directors
by the shareholders. Subject to the other provisions of these Bylaws, the
Directors shall be elected at the annual meetings of the shareholders, and each
Director elected shall serve the applicable term of office, or until his
successor has been elected and qualified.
3.4 REMOVAL OF DIRECTORS. At any meeting of shareholders called
expressly for the purpose of removing a Director at which a quorum is present,
any Director may be removed solely "for cause" by a vote of the holders of at
least two-thirds (2/3) of the shares present in person or by proxy. As used
herein, the term "for cause" shall mean (i) such director shall have entered a
plea of guilty, or been found guilty, of a felony crime under either state or
federal law; (ii) such director shall have been found by a court or governmental
agency having jurisdiction thereof, to have violated the federal securities laws
or the securities laws of any state, or such director shall have admitted that
he or she has violated any such laws; or (iii) upon the recommendation of the

shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except where a director

on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Except as may
be otherwise provided by law or by the Articles of Incorporation or by these
Bylaws, neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any

direct a new certificate to be issued in place of any certificate theretofore
issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed upon
the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate
to be lost, stolen or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new
certificate, the board of directors may, in its discretion and as a condition
precedent to the issuance thereof, prescribe such terms and conditions as it
deems expedient and may require such indemnities as it deems adequate to protect
the Corporation from any claim that may be made against it with respect to any
such certificate alleged to have been lost or destroyed.

6.4 REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER. Shares of stock shall be transferable only
on the books of the Corporation by the holder thereof in person or by his duly
authorized attorney. Upon surrender to the Corporation or the transfer agent of
the Corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or accompanied by
proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer, a new
certificate shall be issued to the person entitled thereto and the old
certificate canceled and the transaction recorded upon the books of the
Corporation.
6.5 REGISTERED OWNER. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the
exclusive right of a person registered on its books as of the record date as the
owner of shares to receive dividends or other distributions, and to vote as such
owner, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or
interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not
it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by
the laws of the State of Texas. The person in whose name the shares are or were
registered in the stock transfer books of the Corporation as of the record date
shall be deemed to be the owner of the shares registered in his name at that
time. Neither the Corporation nor any of its officers, directors, or agents
shall be under any liability for making such a distribution to a person in whose
name shares were registered in the stock transfer books as of the record date or
to the heirs, successors, or assigns of the person, even though the person, or
his heirs, successors, or assigns, may not possess a certificate for shares.
7. DIVIDENDS
7.1 DECLARATION AND PAYMENT. Subject to the Act and the Articles of
Incorporation, dividends may be declared by the board of directors, in its
discretion, at any regular or special meeting, pursuant to law and may be paid
in cash, in property or in the Corporation's own shares.
7.2 RESERVES. Before payment of any dividend, the board of directors, by
resolution, may create a reserve or reserves out of the Corporation's surplus or
designate or allocate any part or all of such surplus in any manner for any
proper purpose or purposes, and may increase, create, or abolish any such
reserve, designation, or allocation in the same manner.
8. PROTECTION OF OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES
8.1 INDEMNIFICATION. The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was,
is, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a proceeding
(which term shall mean any threatened or pending, or completed action, suit, or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, or
investigative, any appeal in such an action, suit, or proceeding, and any
inquiry or investigation that could lead to such an action, suit, or proceeding)
because the person is or was a director of the Corporation, or who, while a
director of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise (such person being referred to in this part 8
as an indemnified person) as follows:
(a) An indemnified person shall be indemnified against judgments,
penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements and
reasonable expenses (including,
12
<Page>
without limitation, court costs and attorneys fees) actually incurred by the
indemnified person in connection with the proceeding; but if an indemnified
person (i) is found liable to the Corporation or (ii) is found liable on the
basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him, whether or not the
benefit resulted from an action taken in his official capacity (as such term is
defined in Art. 2.02-1.A of the Act), the indemnification (x) shall be limited
to reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director in connection with the
proceeding and (y) shall not be made in respect of any proceeding in which the
indemnified person shall have been found liable for willful or intentional
misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Corporation.
(b) An indemnified person shall be indemnified against obligations
resulting from the proceedings referred to in paragraph (a) above only if it is
determined in accordance with paragraph (c) below that he conducted himself in
good faith and reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his official
capacity, that his conduct was in the Corporation's best interest, and in all
other cases that his conduct was at least not opposed to the Corporation's best
interests. In the case of any criminal proceeding, an additional determination
must be made that such indemnified person had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful.
(c) A determination of indemnification under paragraph (b) above must be
made:
(i) by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who
at the time of the vote are not named defendants or respondents in the
proceeding;
(ii) if such a quorum cannot be obtained, by a majority vote of a
committee of the Board of Directors, designated to act in the matter by
a majority vote of all directors, consisting solely of two or more
directors who at the time of the vote are not named defendants or
respondents in the proceeding;
(iii) by special legal counsel selected by the Board of Directors
or a committee of the Board by vote as set forth in (i) or (ii) above,
or, if such quorum cannot be obtained and such a committee cannot be
established, by a majority vote of all directors, or
(iv) by the shareholders in a vote that excludes the shares held by
directors who are named defendants or respondents in the proceeding.
(d) Authorization of indemnification and determination as to
reasonableness of expenses must be made in the same manner as is the
determination that indemnification is permissible, as set forth in paragraph (c)
above, except that if the determination that indemnification is permissible is
made by special legal counsel, authorization of indemnification and
determination as to the reasonableness of expenses must be made in the manner
specified in clause (iii) of paragraph (c) above for the selection of special
counsel.
(e) The indemnification permitted under this section 8.1 shall be
mandatory and this paragraph (e) shall be deemed, in accordance with Article
2.02-1.G. of the Act, to constitute authorization of indemnification in the
manner required by this section 8.01 and by Article 2.02-1.G. of the Act.

8.2 INDEMNIFICATION FOR REASONABLE EXPENSES. The Corporation shall
indemnify an indemnified person against reasonable expenses (including, without
limitation, court costs and attorneys fees) incurred by him in connection with a
proceeding in which he is named defendant or respondent because he is or was an
indemnified person if he has been wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise,
in the defense of the proceeding.
8.3 EXPENSES ADVANCED. The Corporation may pay or reimburse in advance
of the final disposition of a proceeding any reasonable expenses (including,
without limitation, court costs and attorneys fees) incurred by an indemnified
person who was, is, or is threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent
in a proceeding, and without the necessity of making any of the determinations
specified in section 8.1(c) and 8.1(d) hereof, after the Corporation receives a
written affirmation by the indemnified person of his good faith belief that he
has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification as set forth
herein and a written undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnified person
containing the unlimited general obligation of the indemnified person to repay
the amount paid or reimbursed if it is ultimately determined that he has not met
those requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this part 8, the
Corporation may pay or reimburse expenses incurred by an indemnified person in
connection with his appearance as a witness or other participation in a
proceeding at a time when he is not a named defendant or respondent in the
proceeding.
8.4 INSURANCE. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or
another arrangement on behalf of any person who is or was a director or an
officer, employee, agent of the Corporation or who is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or similar
functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint
venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan, or other enterprise,
against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such a
capacity or arising out of his status as such a person, whether or not the
Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against that liability
under these Bylaws or the Act.
8.5 OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS. An officer of the Corporation shall
be indemnified to the same extent as a director, and is entitled to seek
indemnification under this part 8 to the same extent as a director. The
Corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to an employee or agent of the
Corporation, and persons who are not or were not officers, employees, or agents
of the Corporation but who are or were serving at the request of the Corporation
as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent
or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership,
joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan, or other
enterprise, to the same extent that it may indemnify and advance expenses to
directors under this part 8 or to such further extent as may be permitted or
required by law.
8.6 OTHER PROTECTION AND INDEMNIFICATION. The protection and
indemnification provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which such person may be entitled under any agreement, insurance
policy, vote of shareholders, law, or otherwise.
8.7 NOTICE OF INDEMNIFICATION OF OR ADVANCE OF EXPENSES. Any
indemnification of or advance of expenses to a person in accordance with this
part 8 shall be reported in writing to the shareholders with or before the
notice or waiver of notice of the next shareholders' meeting or
14
<Page>
with or before the next submission to shareholders of a consent to action
without a meeting pursuant to Article 9.10.A, of the Act, and, in any case,
within the 12-month period immediately following the date of the indemnification
or advance.
9. GENERAL PROVISIONS
9.1 FISCAL YEAR. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be fixed
by resolution of the board of directors.
9.2 SEAL. The corporate seal shall be in such form as may be prescribed
by the board of directors. The seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile
thereof to be impressed or affixed or in any manner reproduced.
9.3 MINUTES. The Corporation shall keep correct and complete books and
records of account and shall keep minutes of the proceedings of its shareholders
and board of directors, and shall keep at its registered office or principal
place of business, or at the office of its transfer agent or registrar, a record
of its shareholders, giving names and addresses of all shareholders and the
number and class of the shares held by each.
9.4 AMENDMENT. Unless otherwise provided by the Articles of
Incorporation or unless the shareholders in amending, adopting or repealing a
particular Bylaw provision expressly provide that the directors may not amend or
repeal such provision, these Bylaws may be altered, amended or repealed and new
Bylaws may be adopted, at any meeting of the Board of Directors at which a
quorum is present, by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the
entire Board of Directors, provided notice of the proposed alteration,
amendment, or repeal is contained in the notice of the meeting. Unless otherwise
provided in the Articles of Incorporation or by a Bylaw adopted by the
shareholders as to all or some portion of these Bylaws, the shareholders may
amend, repeal, or adopt Bylaws of the Corporation by the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote thereon at
any meeting of the shareholders, provided that notice of the proposed Bylaw
action is contained in the provided notice of the meeting, even though the
Bylaws may also be amended, repealed, or adopted by the Board of Directors. Any
action not permitted under these Bylaws as in effect on the date of the giving
of notice of a meeting of shareholders regarding a proposal to alter, amend,
repeal or adopt new bylaws in a manner to permit such action, may not be
submitted for a vote by the shareholders at, nor may it be the subject of a
prior notice of a special meeting to the Secretary of the Corporation pursuant
to these Bylaws prior to, the meeting at which the Bylaws are altered, amended
or repealed or new bylaws are adopted.
9.5 NOTICE. Any notice to directors or shareholders shall be in writing
and shall be delivered personally or mailed to the directors or shareholders at
their respective addresses appearing on the books of the Corporation. Notice by
mail shall be deemed to be given at the time when the same shall be deposited in
the United States mail, postage prepaid. Notice to directors may also be given
by facsimile transmittal. Whenever any notice is required to be given under the
provisions of applicable statutes or of the Articles of Incorporation or of
these Bylaws, a waiver thereof in writing signed by the person or persons
entitled to such notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall
be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
