                                    ARTICLE I
                                     OFFICES

         Section 1.     Registered Office. The address of the initial principal
office of the corporation in the State of Maryland and the name and the address
of the initial resident agent of the corporation in the State of Maryland are
set forth in the Articles of Incorporation.

         Section 2.     Other Offices. The corporation may also have offices at 
such other places both within and without the State of Maryland as the Board of
Directors may from time to time determine or the business of the corporation may
require.


                                   ARTICLE II
                                      STOCK

         Section 1.     Certificates Representing Stock. Certificates 
representing shares of stock shall set forth thereon the statements prescribed
by Section 2-211 of the Maryland General Corporation Law and by any other
applicable provision of law and shall be signed by the President or the Chairman
of the Board, if any, or a Vice-President and countersigned by the Secretary or
an Assistant Secretary or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer and may be
sealed with the corporate seal or a facsimile of it or in any other form. The
signatures of any such officers may be either manual or facsimile signatures. In
case any such officer who has signed manually or by facsimile any such
certificate ceases to be such officer before the certificate is issued, it may
nevertheless be issued by the corporation with the same effect as if the officer
had not ceased to be such officer as of the date of its issue.

         No certificate representing shares of stock shall be issued for any
share of stock until such share is fully paid, except as otherwise authorized by
the provisions of Section 2-210 of the Maryland General Corporation Law.


                                        1

         The corporation may issue a new certificate of stock in place of any
certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been lost, stolen, or
destroyed, and the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, require the owner
of any such certificate to give bond, with sufficient surety, to the corporation
to indemnify it against any loss or claim that may arise by reason of the
issuance of a new certificate.

         Upon compliance with the provisions of Section 2-514 of the Maryland
General Corporation Law, the Board of Directors of the corporation may adopt by
resolution a procedure by which a stockholder of the corporation may certify in
writing to the corporation that any shares registered in the name of the
stockholder are held for the account of a specified person other than the
stockholder.

         Section 2.     Fractional Share Interests or Scrip. The corporation 
may, but shall not be obliged to, issue fractional shares of stock, eliminate a
fractional interest by rounding off to a full share of stock, arrange for the
disposition of a fractional interest by the person entitled to it, pay cash for
the fair value of a fractional share of stock determined as of the time when the
person entitled to receive it is determined, or issue scrip or other evidence of
ownership which shall entitle its holder to exchange such scrip or other
evidence of ownership aggregating a full share for a certificate which
represents the share; but such scrip or other evidence of ownership shall not,
unless otherwise provided, entitle the holder to exercise any voting right, or
to receive dividends thereon or to participate in any of the assets of the
corporation in the event of liquidation. The Board of Directors may impose any
reasonable condition on the issuance of scrip or other evidence of ownership,
and may cause such scrip or evidence of ownership to be issued subject to the
condition that it shall become void if not exchanged for a certificate
representing a full share of stock before a specified date or subject to the
condition that the shares for which such scrip or evidence of ownership is
exchangeable may be sold by the corporation and the proceeds thereof distributed
to the holders of such scrip or evidence of ownership, or subject to a provision
for forfeiture of such proceeds to the corporation if not claimed within a
period of not less than three years from the date the scrip or other evidence of
ownership was originally issued.

         Section 3.     Share Transfers. Upon compliance with provisions 
restricting the transferability of shares of stock, if any, transfers of shares
of stock of the corporation shall be made only on the stock transfer books of
the corporation by the record holder thereof, or by his attorney thereunto
authorized by power of attorney duly executed and filed with the Secretary of
the corporation or with a transfer agent or a registrar, if any, and on
surrender of the certificate or certificates for such shares of stock properly
endorsed and the payment of all taxes due thereon, if any.

         Section 4.     Record Date for Stockholders. The Board of Directors 
may set a record date or direct that the stock transfer books be closed for a
stated period for the purpose of making any proper determination with respect to
stockholders, including which stockholders are entitled to notice of a meeting,
to vote at a meeting, to receive a dividend, or to be allotted other rights;
provided, that, except as may be otherwise provided herein, any such record date
may not be prior to the close of business on the day the record date is fixed,
shall be not more than ninety days before the date on which the action requiring
the determination will be taken, that any such closing of the transfer books may
not be for a period longer than twenty days, and that, in the case of a meeting
of stockholders, any such record date or any such closing of the transfer books
shall be at least ten days before the date of the meeting. If a record date is
not set, and, if the stock transfer books are not closed, the record date for
determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
stockholders shall be the later of either the close of business on the day on
which notice of the meeting is mailed or the thirtieth day before the meeting,
and the record date for determining stockholders entitled to receive payment or
a dividend or an allotment of any rights shall be the close of business on the
date on which the resolution of the Board of Directors declaring the dividend or
allotment of rights is adopted, by any such payment of a dividend or allotment
of rights shall not be made more than sixty days after the date on which the
resolution is adopted; and a meeting of stockholders convened on the date for
which it was called may be adjourned from time to time without further notice to
a date not more than one hundred and twenty days after the original record date.

         Section 5.     Meaning of Certain Terms. As used herein in respect of 
the right to notice of a meeting of stockholders or a waiver thereof or to
participate or vote thereat or to consent or dissent in writing in lieu of a
meeting, as the case may be, the term "share of stock" or "shares of stock" or
"stockholder" or "stockholders" refers to an outstanding share or shares of
stock and to a holder or holders of record of outstanding shares of stock when
the corporation is authorized to issue only one class of shares of stock. Said
reference is also intended to include any outstanding share or shares of stock
and any holder or holders of record of outstanding shares of stock of any class
or series upon which or upon whom the Articles of Incorporation confer such
rights where there are two or more classes or series of shares or upon which or
upon whom the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law may confer such
rights or the right of dissent notwithstanding that the Articles of
Incorporation may provide for more than one class or series of shares of stock, 
one or more of which are limited or denied such rights thereunder.

                                  STOCKHOLDERS

         Section 1.     Stockholder Meetings.

                 (a)    TIME.

                        (i)    Annual Meetings. The corporation shall hold an 
annual meeting of its stockholders to elect directors and transact any other
business within its powers, either at 9:00 a.m. on the second Tuesday of May in
each year if not a legal holiday, or at such other time or such other day
falling on or before the 30th day thereafter as shall be set by the Board of
Directors.

                        (ii)   Special Meetings. At any time in the interval 
between annual meetings, a special meeting of the stockholders may be called by
the Chairman of the Board or the Vice-Chairman of the Board or the President or
by a majority of the Board of Directors by vote at a meeting or in writing
(addressed to the Secretary of the corporation) with or without a meeting.
Special meetings of the stockholders shall be called as may be required by law.

                 (b)    PLACE. Annual meetings and special meetings shall be 
held at such place, either within the State of Maryland or at such other place
within the United States, as the directors may, from time to time, set. Whenever
the directors shall fail to set such place, or, whenever stockholders entitled
to call a special meeting shall call the same, and a place of meeting is not
set, the meeting shall be held at the principal office of the corporation in the
State of Maryland.

                 (c)    CALL. Annual meetings may be called by the directors or 
the President or by any officer instructed by the directors or the President to
call the meeting. Except as may be otherwise provided by the provisions of the
Maryland General Corporation Law, special meetings may be called in like manner.
Special meetings shall also be called by the Secretary whenever the holders of
shares entitled to at least twenty-five percent of all the votes entitled to be
cast at such meeting shall make a written request that such meeting be called.

                 (d)    NOTICE OR ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE WAIVER OF NOTICE. 
Written notice of all meetings shall be given by the Secretary and shall state
the time and place of the meeting. The notice of an annual meeting shall state
that the meeting is called for the election of directors and for the transaction
of other business which may properly come before the meeting, and shall (if any
other action which could be taken at a special meeting is to be taken at such
annual meeting) contain any additional statements required in a notice of a
special meeting, and shall include a copy of any requisite statements or
provisions prescribed by the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law;
provided, however, that any business of the corporation may be transacted at any
annual meeting without being specially noticed unless the provisions of the
Maryland General Corporation Law provide otherwise. The notice of a special
meeting shall in all instances state the purpose or purposes for which the
meeting is called and shall include a copy of any requisite statements or
provisions prescribed by the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law.
Written notice of any meeting shall be given to each stockholder either by mail
at the address as it appears on the records of the corporation or by personal
delivery to such stockholder or by leaving such notice at his residence or usual
place of business not less than ten days and not more than ninety days before
the date of the meeting, unless any provision of the Maryland General
Corporation Law shall prescribe a different period of time. If mailed, notice
shall be deemed to be given when deposited in the United States mail addressed
to the stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the
corporation with postage thereon prepaid. Whenever any notice of the time, place
or purpose of any meeting of stockholders is required to be given under the
provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, these Bylaws or of the provisions
of the Maryland General Corporation Law, such notice may be waived by a writing
signed by the stockholder and filed with records of the meeting, whether before
or after the holding thereof, or by his presence in person or by proxy at the
meeting. The foregoing requirements of notice shall also apply, whenever the
corporation shall have any class of stock which is not entitled to vote, to
holders of stock who are not entitled to vote at the meeting, but who are
entitled to notice thereof and to dissent from any action taken thereat.

                 (e)    STATEMENT OF AFFAIRS. The President of the corporation,
or, if the Board of Directors shall determine otherwise, some other executive
officer thereof, shall prepare or cause to be prepared annually a full and
correct statement of the affairs of the corporation, including a balance sheet
and a financial statement of operations for the preceding fiscal year, which
shall be submitted at the Annual Meeting and placed on file within twenty days
thereafter at the principal office of the corporation in the State of Maryland.

                 (f)    CONDUCT OF MEETINGS. Meetings of the stockholders shall
be presided over by one of the following officers in the order of seniority and
if present and acting: the Chairman of the Board, if any, the Vice-Chairman of
the Board, if any, the President, a Vice-President, or, if none of the foregoing
is in office and present and acting, by a chairman to be chosen by the
stockholders. The Secretary of the corporation, or in his absence, an Assistant
Secretary, shall act as secretary of every meeting, but if neither the Secretary
nor an Assistant Secretary is present the Chairman of the meeting shall appoint
a secretary of the meeting.

                 (g)    ADJOURNMENT. Whether or not a quorum is present, a 
meeting of stockholders convened on the date for which it was called may be
adjourned from time to time without further notice by the Chairman of the
meeting, or by a majority vote of the stockholders present in person or by
proxy, to a date not more than 120 days after the original record date. Any
business which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally notified
may be deferred and transacted at any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum
shall be present.

                 (h)    PROXY REPRESENTATION. Every stockholder may authorize 
another person or persons to act for him by proxy in all matters in which a
stockholder is entitled to participate, whether for the purposes of determining
his presence at a meeting, or whether by waiving notice of any meeting, voting
or participating at a meeting, or expressing consent or dissent without a
meeting, or otherwise. Every proxy shall be executed in writing by the
stockholder or by his duly authorized attorney in fact, and filed with the
Secretary of the corporation. No proxy shall be valid more than eleven months
from the date of its execution, unless the proxy provides otherwise.

                 (i)    INSPECTORS OF ELECTION. The directors, in advance of any
meeting, may, but need not, appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting
or any adjournment thereof. If an inspector or inspectors are not appointed, the
person presiding at the meeting may, but need not, appoint one or more
inspectors. In case any person who may be appointed as an inspector fails to
appear or act, the vacancy may be filled by appointment made by the directors in
advance of the meeting or at the meeting, by the person presiding thereat. Each
inspector, if any, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take
and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such meeting
with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability. The
inspectors, if any, shall determine the number of shares outstanding and the
voting power of each, the shares presented at the meeting, the existing of a
quorum, the validity and effect of proxies,

                                        6

   10



and shall 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 result, and do such acts as are
proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. On
request of the person presiding at the meeting or any stockholder, the inspector
or inspectors, if any, shall make a report in writing of any challenge, question
or matter determined by him or them and execute a certificate of any fact found
by him or them.

                 (j)    QUORUM. Except as may otherwise be required by the 
provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Articles of
Incorporation, or these Bylaws, the presence in person or by proxy at a meeting
of the stockholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes entitled
to be cast at the meeting shall constitute a quorum.

                 (k)    VOTING. Each share of stock shall entitle the holder 
thereof to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of
stockholders except in the election of directors, at which each share of stock
may be voted for as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and
for whose election the share is entitled to be voted may be cast for as many
persons as there are directors to be elected. Except as may otherwise be
provided in the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Articles
of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a majority of all the votes cast at a meeting
of stockholders at which a quorum is present shall be sufficient to approve any
matter which may properly come before the meeting. A plurality of all the votes
cast at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present is sufficient to
elect a director.

         Section 2.     Informal Action. Any action required or permitted to be
taken at any meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting if the
following are filed with the records of the meeting: an unanimous written
consent which sets forth the action and is signed by each stockholder entitled
to vote on the matter, and, as applicable, a written waiver of any right to
dissent signed by each stockholder entitled to notice of the meeting but not
entitled to vote at it.


                                   ARTICLE IV
                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

         Section 1.     Functions and Definition. The business and affairs of 
the corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of its Board of
Directors. All powers of the corporation may be exercised by or under authority
of said Board

                                        7

   11



of Directors. The use of the phrase "entire board" herein refers to the total
number of directors which the corporation would have if there were no vacancies.

         Section 2.     Qualifications and Number. Each director shall be a 
natural person at least 18 years of age. A director need not be a stockholder, a
citizen of the United States, or a resident of the State of Maryland. The
initial Board of Directors shall consist of the persons set forth in the
Articles of Incorporation. Thereafter the number of directors constituting the
entire board shall consist of not less than three (3) nor more than nine (9)
persons who shall be chosen by the stockholders. Each member of the Board of
Directors shall serve for a period of one (1) year.

         Section 3.     Election and Term. The first Board of Directors shall
consist of the directors named in the Articles of Incorporation and shall hold
office until the first annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors
have been elected and qualified. Thereafter, directors who are elected at an
annual meeting of stockholders, and directors who are elected in the interim to
fill vacancies and newly created directorships, shall hold office until the next
annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and
qualified. In the interim between annual meetings of stockholders or of special
meetings of stockholders called for the election of directors, newly created
directorships and any vacancies in the Board of Directors, including vacancies
resulting from the removal of directors by the stockholders which have not been
filled by said stockholders, may be filled by the Board of Directors. Newly
created directorships shall be filled by action of a majority of the entire
Board of Directors. All other vacancies to be filled by the Board of Directors
may be filled by a majority of the remaining members of the Board of Directors,
whether or not sufficient to constitute a quorum. A director elected by the
Board of Directors to fill a vacancy serves until the next annual meeting of
stockholders and until his successor is elected and qualified.

         Section 4.     Meetings.

                 (a)    TIME. Meetings shall be held at such time as the Board 
shall set, except that the first meeting of a newly elected Board shall be held
as soon after its election as the directors may conveniently assemble.

                 (b)    PLACE. Meetings shall be held at such place within or 
without the State of Maryland as shall be set by the Board.


                                        8

   12



                 (c)    CALL. No call shall be required for regular meetings for
which the time and place have been fixed. Special meetings may be called by or
at the direction of the Chairman of the Board, if any, of the President, or of a
majority of the directors in office.

                 (d)    NOTICE OR ACTUAL OR CONSTRUCTIVE WAIVER. No notice shall
be required for regular meetings for which the time and place have been fixed.
Written, oral or any other mode of notice of the time and place shall be given
for special meetings in sufficient time for the convenient assembly of the
directors thereat. The notice of any meeting need not specify the business to be
transacted or the purpose of the meeting. Whenever any notice of the time,
place, or purpose of any meeting of directors or any committee thereof is
required to be given under the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation
Law or of these Bylaws, such notice may be waived by a writing signed by the
director or committee member entitled to such notice and filed with the records
of the meeting, whether before or after the meeting, or by presence at the
meeting.

                 (e)    QUORUM AND ACTION. A majority of the entire Board of 
Directors shall constitute a quorum except when a vacancy or vacancies prevents
