filed with the Secretary of State of the State of California on June 25, 1993.

                  4.   Article III of Paragraph 2 of said  Restated  Articles of

stock,   designated  Common  Stock.  The  total  number  of  shares  which  this
corporation is authorized to issue is 20,000,000.

                       Upon the amendment and  restatement  of these articles to
read as herein set forth,  each outstanding share of Common Stock shall be split
up and converted into 2,121.152 shares of Common Stock."

                  5.   That said paragraph 2, as corrected, conforms the wording
of  the  amended  article  to  that  adopted  by  the  board  of  directors  and
shareholders.

                  We further  declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of
the State of California that the matters set forth in the foregoing  certificate

                      RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OF
                              FORECROSS CORPORATION


                 Kim O. Jones and Bernadette C. Castello certify that:

                 1.   They are the President  and  Secretary,  respectively,  of
Forecross Corporation, a California corporation.

                 2.   The  Articles of  Incorporation  of this  corporation  are
amended and restated to read in full as follows: 

                                       I

                 The name of this corporation is Forecross Corporation.

                                       II

                 The purpose of this  corporation is to engage in any lawful act
or  activity  for  which  a  corporation  may be  organized  under  the  General
Corporation Law of California other than the banking business, the trust company
business or the practice of a profession  permitted  to be  incorporated  by the
California Corporations code.

                                       III

                 This  corporation  is  authorized  to issue one class of stock,
designated  Common Stock.  The total number of shares which this  corporation is
authorized to issue is 20,000,000.

                 Upon the amendment and restatement of these articles to read as
herein set forth,  each outstanding  share of Common Stock shall be split up and
converted into 2,118 shares of Common Stock.

                                       IV

                 The liability of the directors of this corporation for monetary
damages shall be eliminated to the fullest extent  permissible  under California
law. The corporation is also authorized, to the fullest extent permissible under
California  law,  to  indemnify  its  agents (as  defined in Section  317 of the
California  Corporations Code) , whether by bylaw,  agreement or otherwise,  for
breach  of duty  to the  corporation  and its  shareholders  in  excess  of that
expressly permitted by Section 317 and to advance defense expenses to its agents
in connection with such matters as they are incurred.

                                      -1-






If, after the effective date of this Article IV,  California law is amended in a
manner which permits a corporation  to limit the monetary or other  liability of
its directors or to authorize indemnification of, or advancement of such defense
expenses  to, its  directors  or other  persons,  in any  such case to a greater
extent than is permitted on such effective  date, the references in this Article
IV to "California law" shall to that extent be deemed to refer to California law
as so amended."

                3.    The foregoing  amendment of Articles of Incorporation  has
been duly approved by the Board of Directors.

                4.    The foregoing  amendment of Articles of Incorporation  has
been duly approved by the required vote of the  shareholders  in accordance with
Sections 902 and 903 of the  Corporations  Code. The total number of outstanding
shares of the corporation is 2,534 shares of Common Stock.  The number of shares
voting in favor of the  amendment  equaled or exceeded  the vote  required.  The
percentage  vote required was more than 50% of the  outstanding  Common Stock of
the corporation.
