-3-

9. All corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed under the direction of, a Board of Directors. The number of directors of the Corporation shall be not less than three nor more than seven, the exact number to be fixed by, or in the manner provided in, the Bylaws. The Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms, as nearly equal in number as possible, respectively designated "Class I", "Class II" and "Class III" directors. The initial Class I, "Class II" and "Class III" directors shall be elected by the shareholders of the Corporation. The initial Class I directors shall hold office until the 1995 annual meeting of shareholders, the initial Class II directors all hold office until the 1996 annual meeting of shareholders and the initial Class III directors shall hold office until the 1997 annual meeting of shareholders. In each case, directors shall serve until their respective successors shall have been elected and qualified, subject to their earlier death, resignation, or removal.

At each annual meeting of shareholders commencing with the 1995 annual meeting of shareholders, directors to replace the Class whose term of office expires at such meeting shall be elected to hold office for three year terms, and in each case until their respective successors shall have been elected and qualified, subject to their earlier death, resignation or removal.

If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease shall be apportioned among the classes so as to maintain the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director. Any vacancy on the Board of Directors that results from an increase in the number of directors shall be filled only by a majority of the Board of Directors then in office, and any other vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors shall be filled only by a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director.

Any director may be removed from office but only for cause and only by () the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote for the election of directors, considered for this purpose as one class, unless a vote of a specific voting group is otherwise required by law, or () the affirmative vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors then in office.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever the holders of any one or more classes or series of preferred stock issued by the Corporation shall have the right, voting separately, by class or series, to elect directors at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, the election, term of office, filling of vacancies, and other features of such directorships shall be governed by the terms of this Charter applicable thereto, and such directors so elected shall not be divided into classes pursuant to this

-4-

Article 9 unless expressly provided by such terms. In the event of a vacancy among the directors so elected by the holders of preferred stock, the remaining directors elected by the holders of preferred stock may fill the vacancy.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Charter, the affirmative vote of holders of 66 2/3% of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote at an election of directors shall be required to amend, alter, change, or repeal, or to adopt any provision as part of this Charter or as part of the Corporation's Bylaws inconsistent with the purpose and intent of, this Article 9.

10. The Corporation shall have and exercise all powers necessary or convenient to effect any or all of the purposes for which the Corporation is organized and shall likewise have the powers provided by the Act, or as the same shall hereafter be amended.

11. (a) To the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Tennessee, including without limitation, the Act, as it exists on the date hereof or as it may hereafter be amended, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable for monetary damages to the Corporation or its shareholders for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director. If the laws of the State of Tennessee, including, without limitation, the Act, are amended after approval of this Charter to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, as so amended. Any repeal or modification of this Article 11 by the shareholders shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director existing at the time of such repeal or modification or with respect to events occurring prior to such time.

(b) The Corporation shall have the power to indemnify any director, officer, employee, agent of the Corporation, or any other person who is serving at the request of the Corporation in any such capacity with another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the State of Tennessee as it exists on the date hereof or as it may hereafter be amended, and any such indemnification may continue as to any person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and may inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such person.

12. The directors of the Corporation shall have the right to take any action required or permitted by vote without a meeting on written consent to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, or as the same shall hereafter be amended.

13. In taking or not taking any action in response to an Acquisition Proposal (as defined below), the Board of Directors of the Corporation may consider the social and economic effects of consummation of the Acquisition Proposal on the employees, customers, suppliers, and other constituents of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and on the communities in which the Corporation and its subsidiaries operate or are located and the desirability of maintaining the Corporation's independence from other entities. For purposes of this Article 13, "Acquisition

(c) purchase or otherwise acquire all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

14. The Corporation shall hold a special meeting of shareholders only in the event () of a call of the Board of Directors of the Corporation or the officers authorized to do so by the Bylaws of the Corporation, or () the holders of at least fifteen percent of all the votes entitled to be case on any issue proposed to be considered at the proposed special meeting sign, date, and deliver to the Corporation's secretary one or more written demands for the meeting describing the purpose or purposes for which it is to be held.
