         The other lawful provisions for the conduct and regulation of business
and affairs of the corporation, for its voluntary dissolution, or for limiting,
defining or regulating the powers of the corporation, or of its directors or
stockholders, or any class of stockholders, are set forth in this Article VI.

         a. By-laws. The By-laws may provide that the directors may make, amend
or repeal the By-laws in whole or in part, except with respect to any provision
thereof which by law or the Bylaws requires action by the stockholders.

         b. Meetings. meetings of the stockholders of the corporation may be
held anywhere in the United States.

         c. Acting as Partner. The corporation may be a general or limited
partner in any business enterprise it would have power to conduct by itself.

         d. Indemnification. The corporation may provide, either in the
corporation's By-laws or by contract, for the indemnification of directors,
officers, employees and agents, by whomever elected or appointed, to the full
extent presently permitted by law; provided, however, that if applicable law is
hereafter modified to permit indemnification in situations where it was not
theretofore permitted, then such indemnification may be permitted to the full
extent permitted by such law as amended.

         e. Transactions with Interested Persons. The By-laws may contain
provisions providing that no contract or transaction of the corporation shall be
void or voidable by reason of the fact that any officer, director or stockholder
of the corporation may have held an interest therein.

         f. Vote Required for Certain Transactions. The vote of a majority of
the outstanding shares of each class of stock outstanding and entitled to vote
thereon shall be sufficient to approve any agreement of merger or consolidation
of the corporation with or into another Corporation or of another corporation
into the corporation, or to approve any sale, lease or exchange of substantially
all of the assets of the corporation, notwithstanding any provision of law that
would otherwise require a greater vote in the absence of this provision of
Article VI.

         g. Elimination of Directors' Personal Liability. No director shall be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director notwithstanding any provision of law
imposing such liability; provided, however, that this provision shall not
eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts
or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) under section sixty-one or sixty-two of Chapter
156B of the Massachusetts General Laws, or (iv) for

with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to the
date of such amendment or repeal.
