<Page>

the laws of the State of Ohio on corporations formed under the laws pursuant to
which and under which this corporation is formed, as such laws are now in effect

corporations and in any part of the world.

         (i). To conduct its business in any or all of its branches so far as

possessions of the United States of America, and in foreign countries; and for
and in connection with its present business or future business enterprises.

         The foregoing statement of purposes shall be construed as a statement
of both purposes and powers, shall be liberally construed in aid of the powers
of the corporation, and the powers and purposes stated in each clause, shall,
except where otherwise stated, be in nowise limited or restricted by any term or
provision of any other clause, and shall be regarded not only as independent
purposes, but the purposes and powers stated shall be construed distributively
as each object expressed, and the enumeration as to specific powers shall not be
construed as

[SIDENOTE]


<Page>

to limit in any manner the aforesaid general powers, but are in furtherance of,
and in addition to and not in limitation of said general powers.

         FOURTH. The maximum number of shares which the corporation shall be
authorized to have outstanding is One Thousand (1,000) shares, common without
par value.

         FIFTH. The corporation reserves the right at any time and from time to
time, substantially to change its purposes in the manner now or hereafter
permitted by statute. Any change of the purposes of the corporation, authorized
or approved by the holders of shares entitling them to exercise the proportion
of the voting power of a corporation now or hereafter required by statute, shall
be binding and conclusive upon every shareholder of the corporation as fully as
if such shareholder had voted therefore; and no shareholder, notwithstanding
that he may have voted against such change of purposes or may have objected in
writing thereto, shall be entitled to payment of the full cash value of his
shares.

         SIXTH. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized to fix and determine
and to vary the amount of working capital of the corporation, to determine
whether any, and, if any, what part of its surplus, however created or arising,
shall be used or disposed of or declared in dividends or paid to shareholders
and, without action of the shareholders, to use and apply such

[SIDENOTE]


<Page>

surplus, or any part thereof, at any time or from time to time in the purchase
or acquisition of shares of any class, voting trust certificates for shares,
bonds, debentures, notes, script, warrants, obligations, evidences of
indebtedness of the corporation or other securities of the corporation, to such
extent or amount and in such manner and upon such terms as the Board of
Directors shall deem expedient.

         This corporation shall have the power and authority, upon the
affirmative vote of simple majority of its Board of Directors and without
action its shareholders, to purchase, hold, sell, transfer, reissue and
cancel its own shares and provided, however, that shares of its own capital
stock purchased and redeemed and held as Treasury Shares shall not be voted,
directly or indirectly.

         SEVENTH. Every statute of the State of Ohio hereafter enacted, whereby
the rights or privileges of shareholders of the corporation organized under the
General Corporation Act of said state are diminished, increased or in any way
affected, or whereby effect is given to any action authorized, ratified or
approved by less than all the shareholders of any such corporation, shall apply
to this corporation and shall be binding upon every shareholder thereof to the
same extent as if such statute had been in force at the time of the filing of
these Articles of Incorporation.

[SIDENOTE]


<Page>

         EIGHTH. In every instance that it is or at any time hereafter may be
provided or permitted by the laws of Ohio, that, by provisions in these Articles
of Incorporation certain powers may be conferred upon the directors of a
corporation which they would not otherwise possess, or might possess only by
virtue of some action by shareholders, all such powers and authority are hereby
conferred upon the directors, to be exercised by the vote of a majority thereof,
to the extent as provided or permitted by law, as fully as though such
permissible powers were herein expressly enumerated and granted; and any such
additional powers may also be conferred upon the directors by provision in the
Code of Regulations.

         NINTH. A director or officer of the corporation shall not be
disqualified by his office from dealing or contracting with the corporation as a
vendor, purchaser, employee, agent or otherwise; nor shall any transaction,
contract or act of the corporation be void or voidable or in any way affected or
invalidated by reason of the fact that any director or officer of any firm of
which such director or officer is a member or any corporation of which such
director or officer is a shareholder, director or is in any way interested in
such transaction, contract or act, provided the fact that such director,
officer, firm or corporation is so interested shall be disclosed or shall be
known to the Board of Directors or such members thereof as

[SIDENOTE]


<Page>

shall be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors at which action
upon any such contract, transaction or act shall be taken; nor shall such
director or officer be accountable or responsible to the corporation for or
in respect of any such transaction, contract or act of the corporation, or
for any gains, contract, transaction or act, with like force and effect as if
he or any firm of which he is a member, or any corporation of which he is a
shareholder, officer or director, were not interested in such transaction,
contract or act.

         TENTH. The minimum amount of capital with which the corporation will
begin business is Five Hundred and no/100 Dollars ($500.00).

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, we have hereunto set our hands at Canton, Ohio,
this 2nd day of October, 1983.
