any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors need be specified in

Directors, Directors may be paid their expenses for attendance at each meeting

the Corporation in any other capacity when receiving compensation therefor.

                                   ARTICLE VII
                                 Indemnification

1.   The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action,
suit or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative,
other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation, by reason of the
fact that he or she is or was a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
Director or officer of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines,
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful.

2.   The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Director, officer, employee, or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as a Director, officer, employee or agent of another Corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including attorneys'
fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made
in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been
adjudged to be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or
her duty to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in
which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that
despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the
case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which such court shall deem proper.

3.   To the extent that a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the
Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs 1. and 2. hereof, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified
against expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred by
him or her in connection therewith.

4.   Any indemnification under paragraphs 1. and 2. hereof, unless ordered by a
court, shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case
upon a determination that indemnification of the Director, officer, employee, or
agent of the Corporation, is proper in the circumstances because


                                       39


he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs 1.
or 2. hereof.  Such determination shall be made by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or if such a quorum is not obtainable, or even if
obtainable, a quorum of disinterested Directors so directs, by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, or by the Stockholders, as the case may be.

5.   Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or
proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of
such action, suit or proceeding as authorized in the matter provided in
paragraph 4. hereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the
Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation to repay such amount
unless it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is entitled to be
indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this section.

6.   The indemnification provided by this section shall not be deemed exclusive
of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any other
bylaw, agreement, vote of Stockholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise,
both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has
ceased to be a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation and
shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such
person.

7.   The Corporation shall have the power at the discretion of the Board of
Directors to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or
was a Director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, officer, employee, or
agent of another Corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other
enterprise against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him
or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether
or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such
liability under the provisions of this Article VII.

8.   The Corporation shall not indemnify a Director, officer, employee, or agent
of the Corporation under this Article VII if the Director, officer, employee, or
agent of the Corporation has previously received indemnification or allowance of
expenses from any person, including the Corporation, in connection with the same
proceeding.  However, the Director, officer, employee, or agent of the
Corporation has no duty to look to any other person for indemnification.

9.   In order for the Corporation to obtain and retain qualified Directors,
officers and employees, the foregoing provisions shall be liberally administered
in order to afford maximum indemnification of Directors, officers, and
employees.  The indemnification above provided for shall be granted in all
applicable cases unless to do so would clearly contravene law, controlling
precedent or public policy.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

                         Loans to Directors and Officers
