                                    ARTICLE V

                                  CAPITAL STOCK

     5.1  CERTIFICATES. The shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be
evidenced by certificates in forms prescribed by the Board of Directors and
executed in any manner permitted by law and stating thereon the information
required by law. Transfer agents and/or registrars for one or more classes of
shares of the Corporation may be appointed by the Board of Directors and may be
required to countersign certificates representing shares of such class or
classes. If any officer whose signature or facsimile thereof shall have been
used on a share certificate shall for any reason cease to be an officer of the
Corporation and such certificate shall not then have been delivered by the
Corporation, the Board of Directors may nevertheless adopt such certificate and
it may then be issued and delivered as though such person had not ceased to be
an officer of the Corporation.

     5.2  LOST, DESTROYED AND MUTILATED CERTIFICATES. Holders of the shares of
the Corporation shall immediately notify the Corporation of any loss,
destruction or mutilation of the certificate therefor, and the Board of
Directors may in its discretion cause one or more new certificates for the same
number of shares in the aggregate to be issued to such shareholder upon the
surrender of the mutilated certificate or upon satisfactory proof of such loss
or destruction, and the deposit of a bond in

                                       12
<Page>

such form and amount and with such surety as the Board of Directors may require.

     5.3  TRANSFER OF SHARES. The shares of the Corporation shall be
transferable or assignable only on the books of the Corporation by the holder in
person or by attorney on surrender of the certificate for such shares duly
endorsed and, if sought to be transferred by attorney, accompanied by a written
power of attorney to have the same transferred on the books of the Corporation.
The Corporation will recognize, however, the exclusive right of the person
registered on its books as the owner of shares to receive dividends and to vote
as such owner.

     5.4  FIXING RECORD DATE. For the purpose of determining shareholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of shareholders or any
adjournment thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order
to make a determination of shareholders for any other proper purpose, the Board
of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such
determination of shareholders, such date in any case to be not more than seventy
days prior to the date on which the particular action, requiring such
determination of shareholders, is to be taken. If no record date is fixed for
the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting
of shareholders, or of shareholders entitled to receive payment of a dividend,
the date on which notices of the meeting are mailed or the date on which the
resolution of the Board of Directors declaring such dividend is adopted, as the
case may be, shall be the record date for such

                                       13
<Page>

determination of shareholders. When a determination of shareholders entitled to
vote at any meeting of shareholders has been made as provided in this section,
such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof unless the Board of
Directors fixes a new record date, which it shall do if the meeting is adjourned
to a date more than 120 days after the date fixed for the original meeting.

                                   ARTICLE VI

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

circular die, of which there may be any number of counterparts, on which there
shall be engraved the word "Seal".

     6.2  FISCAL YEAR. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall end on such date
and shall consist of such accounting periods as may be fixed by the Board of
Directors.

     6.3  CHECKS, NOTES AND DRAFTS. Checks, notes, drafts and other orders for
the payment of money shall be signed by such persons as the Board of Directors
from time to time may authorize. When the Board of Directors so authorizes,
however, the signature of any such person may be a facsimile.

     6.4  AMENDMENT OF BY-LAWS. Unless proscribed by the Articles of
Incorporation, these By-laws may be amended or altered at any meeting of the
Board of Directors by affirmative vote of a majority of the number of Directors
fixed by these By-laws. The

                                       14
<Page>

shareholders entitled to vote in respect of the election of Directors, however,
shall have the power to rescind, amend, alter or repeal any By-laws and to enact
By-laws which, if expressly so provided, may not be amended, altered or repealed
by the Board of Directors.

     6.5  VOTING OF SHARES HELD. Unless otherwise provided by resolution of the
Board of Directors or of the Executive Committee, if any, the President may from
time to time appoint an attorney or attorneys or agent or agents of the
Corporation, in the name and on behalf of the Corporation, to cast the vote
which the Corporation may be entitled to cast as a shareholder or otherwise in
any other corporation, any of whose securities may be held by the Corporation,
at meetings of the holders of the shares or other securities of such other
corporation, or to consent in writing to any action by any such other
corporation; and the President shall instruct the person or persons so appointed
as to the manner of casting such votes or giving such consent and may execute or
cause to be executed on behalf of the Corporation, and under its corporate seal
or otherwise, such written proxies, consents, waivers or other instruments as
may be necessary or proper in the premises. In lieu of such appointment the
President may himself attend any meetings of the holders of shares or other
securities of any such other corporation and there vote or exercise any or all
power of the Corporation as the holder of such shares or other securities of
such other corporation.

                                   ARTICLE VII

                                EMERGENCY BY-LAWS

     The Emergency By-laws provided in this Article VII shall be operative
during any emergency, notwithstanding any different provision in the preceding
Articles of these By-laws or in the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation
or in the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (other than those provisions relating
to emergency by-laws). An emergency exists if a quorum of the Corporation's
Board of Directors cannot readily be assembled because of some catastrophic
event. To the extent not inconsistent with these Emergency By-laws, the By-laws
provided in the preceding Articles shall remain in effect during such emergency
and upon the termination of such emergency the Emergency By-laws shall cease to
be operative unless and until another such emergency shall occur.

     During any such emergency:

     (a)  Any meeting of the Board of Directors may be called by any officer of
the Corporation or by any Director. The notice thereof shall specify the time
and place of the meeting. To the extent feasible, notice shall be given in
accord with Section 2.4 above, but notice may be given only to such of the
Directors as it may be feasible to reach at the time, by such means as may be
feasible at the time, including publication or radio, and at a time less than
twenty-four hours before the meeting if deemed necessary by the person giving
notice. Notice shall be similarly given, to the extent feasible, to the other
persons referred to in (b) below.

     (b)  At any meeting of the Board of Directors, a quorum shall

                                       16
<Page>

consist of a majority of the number of Directors fixed at the time by Article II
of the By-laws. If the Directors present at any particular meeting shall be
fewer than the number required for such quorum, other persons present as
referred to below, to the number necessary to make up such quorum, shall be
deemed Directors for such particular meeting as determined by the following
provisions and in the following order of priority:

          (i)  Vice-Presidents not already serving as Directors, in the order of
their seniority of first election to such offices, or if two or more shall have
been first elected to such offices on the same day, in the order of their
seniority in age;

          (ii) All other officers of the Corporation in the order of their
seniority of first election to such offices, or if two or more shall have been
first elected to such offices on the same day, in the order of their seniority
in age; and

          (iii) Any other persons that are designated on a list that shall have
been approved by the Board of Directors before the emergency, such persons to be
taken in such order of priority and subject to such conditions as may be
provided in the resolution approving the list.

     (c)  The Board of Directors, during, as well as before, any such emergency,
may provide, and from time to time modify, lines of succession in the event that
during such an emergency any or all officers or agents of the Corporation shall
for any reason be rendered incapable of discharging their duties.

     (d)  The Board of Directors, during, as well as before, any

                                       17
<Page>

such emergency, may, effective in the emergency, change the principal office, or
designate several alternative offices, or authorize the officers so to do.

     No officer, Director or employee shall be liable for action taken in good
faith in accordance with these Emergency By-laws.

     These Emergency By-laws shall be subject to repeal or change by further
action of the Board of Directors or by action of the shareholders, except that
no such repeal or change shall modify the provisions of the next preceding
paragraph with regard to action or inaction prior to the time of such repeal or
change. Any such amendment of these Emergency By-laws may make any further or
different provision that may be practical and necessary for the circumstances of
the emergency.

                                       18
