The total authorized capital stock of the Corporation shall be

matter on which the shareholders of the Corporation shall be entitled to vote,
and each holder of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each
share of such stock held by such holder.
(b) CLASS B COMMON STOCK. Except as otherwise required by law and by
Section l(c) of this Article III (in which case, holders of Class B Common Stock
shall vote at the rate of one vote for each share of such stock held) as a
single class unless otherwise required by law, no share or shares of Class B
Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to vote on any matter
<Page>
on which the shareholders of the Corporation shall be entitled to vote, and
shares of Class B Common Stock shall not be included in determining the number
of shares voting or entitled to vote on any such matters. Holders of Class B
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive all notices and proxy statements sent
by the Corporation to holders of Class A Common Stock.
(c) AMENDMENTS. Any amendment to this Article III which would have a
material adverse effect on the rights of the holders of Class B Common Stock
shall require the consent of the holders of not less than 85 percent of the
issued and outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock; PROVIDED; that such
consent shall not be required in the event such amendment is required to ensure
compliance with applicable law.
Section 2. DIVIDENDS.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation may cause dividends to be paid
to the holders of shares of Common Stock out of funds legally available for the
payment of dividends by declaring an amount per share as a dividend. When and as
dividends or other distributions (including, without limitation, any grant or
distribution of rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of capital stock or
securities or indebtedness convertible into capital stock of the Corporation)
are declared, whether payable in cash, in property or in shares of stock of the
Corporation, other than in shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common
Stock, the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall be
entitled to share equally, share for share, in such dividends or other
distributions as if all such shares were of a single class; PROVIDED, that if
the dividends consist of other voting securities of the Corporation, the
Corporation shall make available to each Regulated Holder, at such holder's
request, dividends consisting of non-voting securities of the Corporation which
are otherwise identical to the voting securities and which are convertible or
exchangeable for such voting securities on the same terms as the Class B Common
Stock is convertible into Class A Common Stock. No dividends or other
distributions shall be declared or paid in shares of Class A Common Stock or
Class B Common Stock or options, warrants or rights to acquire shares of such
stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of such stock,
except dividends or other distributions payable to all of the holders of Common
Stock ratably according to the number of shares of Common Stock held by each of
them, in shares of Class A Common Stock to holders of that class of stock and
Class B Common Stock to holders of that class of stock.
Section 3. LIQUIDATION RIGHTS.
In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to share ratably, according to the number of shares of Common Stock
held by each of them, in all assets of the Corporation available for
distribution to its shareholders.
Section 4. CONVERSION.
(a) At any time and from time to time, each share of Class B Common
Stock shall be convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock and each share
of Class A Common Stock shall be convertible into one share of Class B Common
Stock.
-2-
<Page>
(b) Each conversion of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation into
shares of another class of Common Stock of the Corporation shall be effected by
the surrender of the certificate or certificates representing the shares to be
converted (the "Converting Shares") at the principal office of the Corporation
(or such other office or agency of the Corporation as the Corporation may
designate by written notice to the holders of Common Stock) at any time during
its usual business hours, together with written notice duly executed by the
holder of such Converting Shares, stating (i) that such shareholder desires to
convert the Converting Shares, or a stated number of the shares represented by
such certificate or certificates, into an equal number of shares of the other
class of Common Stock (the "Converted Shares"), (ii) the name or names (with
addresses) and denominations in which the certificate or certificates for
Converted Shares are to issued, (iii) instructions for the delivery thereof and
(iv) that such conversion and the holding of such Converted Shares by such
holder or holders are permitted under the then current applicable law. The
Corporation shall promptly notify each converting shareholder of its receipt of
such notice. Promptly after such surrender and the receipt of such written
notice, the Corporation shall issue and deliver in accordance with the
surrendering shareholder's instructions the certificate or certificates
evidencing the Converted Shares issuable upon such conversion, and the
Corporation shall deliver to the converting shareholder a certificate (which
shall contain such legends as were set forth on the surrendered certificate or
certificates) representing any shares which were represented by the certificate
or certificates that were delivered to the Corporation in connection with such
conversion, but which were not converted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such
conversion is subject to Section 6 of this Article III, the Corporation shall
not issue such certificate or certificates until the expiration of the Deferral
Period referred to therein. Such conversion, to the extent permitted by law,
shall be deemed to have been effected as of the close of business on the date on
which such certificate or certificates shall have been surrendered and such
notice shall have been received by the Corporation, and at such time the rights
of the holder of the Converting Shares as such shareholder shall cease (except
that, in the case of a conversion subject to Section 6 of this Article III, the
conversion shall be deemed to be effective upon the expiration of the Deferral
Period referred to therein) and the person or persons in whose name or names the
certificate or certificates for the Converted Shares are to be issued upon such
conversion shall be deemed to have become the shareholder or shareholders of
record of the Converted Shares. Upon issuance of shares in accordance with this
Section 4, such Converted Shares shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable. The Corporation shall take all such actions as may be
necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock may be so issued
without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation or any
requirements of any securities exchange upon which shares of Common Stock may be
listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately
transmitted by the Corporation upon issuance). The Corporation shall not close
its books against the transfer of shares of Common Stock in any manner which
would interfere with the timely conversion of any shares of Common Stock.
(c) The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out
of its authorized hut unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting
conversions pursuant to this Article III, the full number of shares of Common
Stock of each class from time to time issuable upon the conversion of all shares
of Common Stock then outstanding and entitled to convert and shall take all such
action and obtain all such permits or orders as may be necessary to enable the
-3-
<Page>
Corporation lawfully to issue such shares upon any such conversion. In addition,
the Corporation shall also reserve and keep available such other securities and
property as may from time be deliverable upon conversion of Common Stock and
shall take all such action and obtain all such permits or orders as may be
necessary to enable the Corporation to lawfully deliver such other securities
and property upon conversion. So long as any shares of Common Stock shall be
outstanding, the Corporation shall take all corporate action necessary in order
for the Corporation to be able to validly and legally issue fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon any conversion thereof.
Section 5. SUBDIVISIONS, COMBINATIONS AND OTHER ACTION AFFECTING CAPITAL STOCK.
If shares of either class of Common Stock are subdivided or combined,
then shares of both classes of Common Stock shall be so subdivided or combined,
and effective provision shall be made for the protection of the conversion
rights hereunder. The Corporation shall not enter into any reorganization,
reclassification or change of shares of the Class A Common Stock or Class B
Common Stock unless the shares, options, warrants or other rights, securities or
other property issuable to the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock are identical on a share-for-share basis; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that
if the shares, options, warrants or other rights, securities or other property
issuable to holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, or the
securities issuable upon conversion thereof, are convertible into or shall
consist of voting securities, the Corporation shall make available to each
holder of Class B Common Stock, at such holder's request, shares, options,
warrants or other securities consisting of or convertible or exercisable into
nonvoting securities which are otherwise identical to the voting securities
received by the holders of Class A Common Stock and which are convertible into
or exchangeable for such voting securities on the same terms as the Class B
Common Stock is convertible into the Class A Common Stock.
Section 6. REGULATED SHAREHOLDERS.
(a) The Corporation shall not convert or directly or indirectly
redeem, purchase, acquire or take any other action affecting outstanding shares
of capital stock of the Corporation if such action will increase the percentage
of outstanding voting securities owned or controlled by any Regulated Holder who
has identified itself as such to the Company in writing, which writing shall
include the amount of shares of Common Stock held by such holder (other than
each Regulated Holder which waives in writing its rights under this Article),
unless the Corporation gives written notice (the "Deferral Notice") of such
action to each Regulated Holder. The Corporation shall defer making any such
conversion, redemption, purchase or other acquisition, or taking any such other
action for a period of 20 days (the "Deferral Period") after giving the Deferral
Notice in order to allow each Regulated Holder to determine whether it wishes to
convert or take any other action with respect to the Common Stock it owns,
controls or has the power to vote, and if any Regulated Holder then elects to
convert any shares of Class A Common Stock, it shall notify the Corporation in
writing within 10 days of the issuance of the Deferral Notice, in which case the
Corporation shall promptly notify from time to time prior to the end of such
20-day period each other Regulated Holder of each proposed conversion and effect
the conversions requested by all Regulated Holders at the end of the Deferral
Period. The Corporation shall not directly or indirectly redeem, purchase,
acquire or take any other action
-4-
<Page>
affecting outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Corporation if such action
will increase over 24.9% the percentage of outstanding Common Stock owned or
controlled by any Regulation Y Holder and its Affiliates (other than a
Regulation Y Holder which waives in writing its rights under this Article).
(b) In no event shall the Company convert or directly or indirectly
redeem, purchase, acquire or take any other action affecting outstanding shares
of capital stock of the Corporation if, after giving effect to such conversion,
redemption, purchase, acquisition or other action, any Regulated Holders would
be in violation of any applicable laws including, without limitation, Regulation
Y or the SBIA.
Section 7. MISCELLANEOUS.
The issuance of certificates for shares of any class of Common Stock
(upon conversion of shares of any other class of Common Stock or otherwise)
shall be made without charge to the holders of such shares for any issuance tax
in respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Corporation in connection with
such conversion and/or the issuance of shares of Common Stock; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax which may be
payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any
certificate in a name other than that of the holder of the Common Stock
converted.
The Corporation shall keep at its principal executive office (or such
other place as the Corporation reasonably designates) a register for the
registration of shares of Common Stock. Upon the surrender of any certificate
representing shares of any class of Common Stock at such place, the Corporation
shall, at the request of the registered holder of such certificate, execute and
deliver a new certificate or certificates in exchange therefor representing in
the aggregate the number of shares of such class represented by the surrendered
certificate, and the Corporation forthwith shall cancel such surrendered
certificate. Subject to any other restriction on transfer to which such holder
or such shares may be bound, the Corporation shall also register such new
certificate in such name or names as requested by the holder of the surrendered
certificate.

B. In any proceeding brought by or in the right of the Corporation

officer of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its
shareholders for monetary damages with respect to any transaction, occurrence or
course of conduct, whether prior or subsequent to the effective date of
-6-
<Page>
this Article, except for liability resulting from such person's having engaged
in willful misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law or any federal
or state securities law.
C. The Corporation shall indemnify (1) any person who was or is a
party to any proceeding, including a proceeding brought by a shareholder in the
right of the Corporation or brought by or on behalf of shareholders of the
Corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a Director, officer,
employee or agent of the Corporation, or (2) any Director or officer who is or
was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, trustee, partner or
officer of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against any liability
incurred by him in connection with such proceeding unless he engaged in willful
misconduct or a knowing violation of the criminal law. A person is considered to
be serving an employee benefit plan at the Corporation's request if his duties
to the Corporation also impose duties on, or otherwise involve services by, him
to the plan or to participants in or beneficiaries of the plan. The Board of
Directors is hereby empowered, by a majority vote of a quorum of disinterested
Directors, to enter into a contract to indemnify any Director or officer in
respect of any proceedings arising from any act or omission, whether occurring
before or after the execution of such contract.
D. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to all
proceedings commenced after the adoption hereof by the shareholders of the
Corporation, arising from any act or omission, whether occurring before or after
such adoption. No amendment or repeal of this Article shall have any effect on
the rights provided under this Article with respect to any act or omission
occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. The Corporation shall promptly take
all such actions, and make all such determinations, as shall be necessary or
appropriate to comply with its obligation to make any indemnity under this
Article and shall promptly pay or reimburse all reasonable expenses, including
attorneys' fees, incurred by any such Director, officer, employee or agent in
connection with such actions and determinations or proceedings of any kind
arising therefrom.
E. The termination of any 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 applicant did not meet the standard of
conduct described in Section B or C of this Article.
F. Any indemnification under Section C of this Article (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 applicant
is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in Section C. The determination shall be made:
1. By the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum
consisting of Directors not at the time parties to the proceeding;
2. If a quorum cannot be obtained under subsection 1 of this
section, by majority vote of a committee duly designated by the Board of
Directors (in which designation Directors who are parties may participate),
consisting solely of two or more Directors not at the time parties to the
proceeding;

obtained under subsection 1 of this section and a committee cannot be designated
under subsection 2 of this section, selected by majority vote of the full Board
of Directors, in which selection Directors who are parties may participate; or
4. By the shareholders, but shares owned by or voted under the
control of Directors who are at the time parties to the proceeding may not be
voted on the determination.
Any evaluation as to reasonableness of expenses shall be made in the same
manner as the determination that indemnification is appropriate, except that if
the determination is made by special legal counsel, such evaluation as to
reasonableness of expenses shall be made by those entitled under subsection 3 of
this section to select counsel.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event there has been a change in
the composition of a majority of the Board of Directors after the date of the
alleged act or omission with respect to which indemnification is claimed, any
determination as to indemnification and advancement of expenses with respect to
any claim for indemnification made pursuant to this Article shall be made by
special legal counsel agreed upon by the Board of Directors and the applicant.
If the Board of Directors and the applicant are unable to agree upon such
special legal counsel the Board of Directors and the applicant each shall select
a nominee, and the nominees shall select such special legal counsel.
G. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE.
1. The Corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable
expenses incurred by any applicant who is a party to a proceeding in advance of
final disposition of the proceeding or the making of any determination under
Section F if the applicant furnishes the Corporation:
(a) a written statement of his good faith belief that he
has met the standard of conduct described in Section C; and
(b) a written undertaking, executed personally or on his
behalf, to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he did not meet
such standard of conduct.

this section shall be an unlimited general obligation of the applicant but need
not be secured and may be accepted without reference to financial ability to
make repayment.

<Page>
3. Authorizations of payments under this section shall he made
by the persons specified in Section F.
H. The Board of Directors is hereby empowered, by majority vote of a
quorum consisting of disinterested Directors, to cause the Corporation to
indemnify or contract to indemnify any person not specified in Section B or C of
this Article who was, is or may become a party to any proceeding, by reason of
the fact that he is or was an employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as Director, officer, employee or
agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint
venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, to the same extent as
if such person were specified as one to whom indemnification is granted in
Section C. The provisions of Sections D through E of this Article shall be
applicable to any indemnification provided hereafter pursuant to this Section H.
I. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance to indemnify
it against the whole or any portion of the liability assumed by it in accordance
with this Article and may also procure insurance, in such amounts as the Board
of Directors may determine, 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, limited liability company, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against any liability asserted
against or incurred by him in any such capacity or arising from his status as
such, whether or not the Corporation would have power to indemnify him against
such liability under the provisions of this Article.
J. Every reference herein to Directors, officers, employees or
agents shall include former Directors, officers, employees and agents and their
respective heirs, executors and administrators. The indemnification hereby
provided and provided hereafter pursuant to the power hereby conferred by this
Article on the Board of Directors shall not be exclusive of any other rights to
which any person may be entitled, including any right under policies of
insurance that may be purchased and maintained by the Corporation or others,
with respect to claims, issues or matters in relation to which the Corporation
would not have the power to indemnify such person under the provisions of this
Article. Such rights shall not prevent or restrict the power of the Corporation
to make or provide for any further indemnity, or provisions for determining
entitlement to indemnity, pursuant to one or more indemnification agreements,
bylaws, or other arrangements (including, without limitation, creation of trust
funds or security interests funded by letters of credit or other means) approved
by the Board of Directors (whether or not any of the Directors of the
Corporation shall be a party to or beneficiary of any such agreements, bylaws or
arrangements); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any provision of such agreements, bylaws
or other arrangements shall not be effective if and to the extent that it is
determined to be contrary to this Article or applicable laws of the Commonwealth
of Virginia.
K. Each provision of this Article shall be severable, and an adverse
determination as to any such provision shall in no way affect the validity of
any other provision.
