                          INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS

 1.  The articles of incorporation cannot be restated until this form, or a
     comparable document, is submitted.

 2.  Submit one original of this document. Upon filing, the document will be
     added to the records of the Corporation, Securities and Land Development
     Bureau. The original will be returned to the address appearing in the box
     on the front as evidence of filing.

     Since this document will be maintained on optical disk media, it is
     important that the filing be legible. Documents with poor black and white
     contrast, or otherwise illegible, will be rejected.

 3.  This document is to be used pursuant to sections 641 through 643 of the Act
     for the purpose of restating the articles of incorporation of a domestic
     profit corporation. Restated articles of incorporation are an integration
     into a single instrument of the current provisions of the corporation's
     articles of incorporation, along with any desired amendments to those
     articles.

 4.  Restated articles of incorporation which do not amend the articles of
     incorporation may be adopted by the board of directors without a vote of
     the shareholders. Restated articles of incorporation which amend the
     articles of incorporation require adoption by the shareholders. Restated
     articles of incorporation submitted before the first meeting of the board
     of directors require adoption by all of the incorporators.

 5.  Item 2 - Enter the identification number previously assigned by the
     Bureau. If this number is unknown, leave it blank.

 6.  The duration of the corporation should be stated in the restated articles
     of incorporation only if it is not perpetual.

     later effective date, no more than 90 days after the date of delivery, may
     be stated as an additional article.

 8.  If the restated articles are adopted before the first meeting of the board
     of directors, item 5(a) must be completed and signed in ink by a majority
     of the incorporators. Other restated articles must be signed by the
     president, vice-president, chairperson or vice-chairperson of the
     corporation.

     name and identification number on check or money order.
