Section 2. Authorized Capital Stock. The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock that the Company shall have authority to issue is 25,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 17,195,742 shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Class A Common Stock"), (b) 4,804,258 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Class B Common Stock" and, together with Class A Common Stock, "Common Stock"), and (c) 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share ("Preferred Stock"). The number of authorized shares of any class or classes of capital stock of the Company may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Company entitled to vote thereon. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix or alter the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of all classes of the capital stock of the Company; provided, however, that in no case shall the powers, preferences and rights of the Class A Common Stock be greater than those provided herein. Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided for herein, the rights, powers, and preferences of the shares of Common Stock and the qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, shall be in all respects identical. Section 3. Common Stock. The relative rights, powers, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock from and after the Effective Time shall be as follows: (a) Voting Rights. Each share of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote, and each share of Class B Common Stock shall be entitled to ten votes, on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. Except as otherwise provided herein or by law or in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company providing for the issuance of Preferred Stock, all actions submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Company shall be voted on by the holders of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (as well as the holders of any series of Preferred Stock, if any, entitled to vote thereon), voting together as a single class. (b) Conversion. The Class A Common Stock has no conversion rights. Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible at any time, and from time to time, at the option of and without cost to the holder thereof, into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common Stock on and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that for a period of one year from the Effective Time shares of Class B Common Stock may only be converted into Class A Common Stock 90 days after the delivery to the Company of a Conversion Notice (as hereinafter defined); and provided further, however, that shares of Class B Common Stock shall be automatically converted, without any action on the part of the holder thereof, into shares of Class A Common Stock on the occurrence of the events described in subsection (c) of this Section 3. If any record owner of any shares of Class B Common Stock (a "Class B Holder") desires to convert any of such shares into shares of Class A Common Stock, such Class B Holder shall present and surrender the certificate or certificates representing such shares during usual business hours at any office or agency of the Company maintained for the transfer of Class B Common Stock and shall deliver a written notice ("Conversion Notice") of the election of such Class B Holder to convert the shares represented by such certificate or any portion thereof as specified in the Conversion Notice. The Conversion Notice shall state the name or names (with addresses) in which the certificate or certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock issuable on such conversion shall be registered. If so required by the Company, any certificate representing shares of Class B Common Stock surrendered for conversion shall be accompanied by instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company, duly executed by the holder of such shares or his authorized representative. Each conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock shall be deemed to have been -2- 3 effected on the date (the "conversion date") on which the certificate or certificates representing such shares shall have been surrendered and such notice and any required instruments of transfer shall have been received as aforesaid (or if the date of such surrender and receipt falls within the period of one year from the Effective Time, then the conversion date shall be 90 days after the date of such surrender and receipt). The person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be, for the purpose of receiving dividends and for all other corporate purposes whatsoever, deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares of Class A Common Stock represented thereby on the conversion date. As promptly as practicable after the conversion date, the Company shall issue and deliver at such office or agency, to or upon the written order of the holder thereof, certificates for the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. Subject to the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section 3, in the event any certificate representing shares of Class B Common Stock shall be surrendered for conversion of a part only of the shares represented thereby, the Company shall deliver at such office or agency, to or upon the written order of the holder thereof, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Class B Common Stock represented by such surrendered certificate which are not being converted. The issuance of certificates representing shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock by the registered holder thereof shall be made without charge to the converting holder for any tax imposed on the Company in respect of the issue thereof. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax which may be payable with respect to any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of any certificate in a name other than that of the registered holder of the shares being converted, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any such certificate unless and until the person requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. Upon any conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant hereto, no adjustment with respect to dividends shall be made; only those dividends shall be payable on the shares so converted as may be declared and are payable to holders of record of shares of Class B Common Stock on a date prior to the conversion date with respect to the shares so converted; and only those dividends shall be payable on shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon such conversion as may be declared and are payable to holders of record of shares of Class A Common Stock on or after such conversion date. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company as a result of which the holders of Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash, stock, other securities, or other property with respect to or in exchange for Class A Common Stock or in case of any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the Company as an entirety, each holder of any share of Class B Common Stock shall have the right thereafter, so long as the conversion right hereunder shall exist, to convert such share into the kind and amount of cash, shares of stock, and other securities and properties as are receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by each holder of one share of Class A Common Stock and shall have no other conversion rights with regard to such share. The provisions of this paragraph shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances. Shares of Class B Common Stock converted into Class A Common Stock as provided in this subsection (b) shall be retired and shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of Class B Common Stock. Such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as may from time to time be required for such purpose shall be reserved for issuance upon conversion of outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and for issuance upon exercise of options, if any. -3 - 4 (c) Restrictions on Transfer of Class B Common Stock. No Class B Holder may transfer, and the Company shall not register the transfer of, any shares of Class B Common Stock, whether by sale, assignment, gift, bequest, appointment or otherwise, except to a Permitted Transferee (as hereinafter defined). In the case of a Class B Holder who is a natural person and the beneficial owner of shares of Class B Common Stock proposed to be transferred, a Permitted Transferee consists only of: (i) such Class B Holder's spouse; provided, however, that upon divorce any Class B Common Stock held by such spouse shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock; (ii) any lineal descendant of any great-grandparent of such Class B Holder, including adopted children, and any such descendant's spouse (such descendants and their spouses, together with such Class B Holder's spouse, are referred to herein as "family members"); (iii) the trustee or trustees of a trust (including a voting trust) for the sole benefit of such Class B Holder and/or any of such Class B Holder's family members, except that such trust may also grant a general or special power of appointment to one or more of such Class B Holder's family members and may permit trust assets to be used to pay taxes, legacies, and other obligations of the trust or the estates of one or more of such Class B Holder's family members payable by reason of the death of any of such family members; provided, however, that if at any time such trust fails to meet the requirements of this subparagraph (iii), all shares of Class B Common Stock then held by such trustee or trustees shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock; (iv) any organization established by a Class B Holder or any of such Class B Holder's family members, contributions to which are deductible for federal income, estate, or gift tax purposes (a "charitable organization") and a majority of whose governing board at all times consists of such Class B Holder and/or one or more of the Permitted Transferees of such Class B Holder, or any successor to such charitable organization meeting the requirements of this subparagraph (iv); provided that, if there is any change in the composition of the governing board of such charitable organization that would cause such charitable organization no longer to qualify as a Permitted Transferee of such Class B Holder, all shares of Class B Common Stock then held by such charitable organization shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock; and (v) any partnership in which all of the partners are, and all of the partnership interests are owned by, such Class B Holder and/or any of such Class B Holder's family members, and any corporation wholly owned by such Class B Holder and/or any of such Class B Holder's family members; provided that, if there is any change in the partners of or owners of partnership interests in such partnership or in the stockholders of such corporation that would cause such partnership or corporation no longer to qualify as a Permitted Transferee of such Class B Holder, any Class B Common Stock then held by such partnership or corporation shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such -4- 5 shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock. In the case of a Class B Holder that is a partnership or a corporation and the beneficial owner of the shares of Class B Common Stock proposed to be transferred, a Permitted Transferee consists only of: (i) any partner of such partnership who was a partner thereof on the record date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock; (ii) any stockholder of such corporation who held any share thereof on the record date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock and who receives shares of Class B Common Stock pro rata to his stock ownership in such corporation through a dividend or through a distribution made upon liquidation of such corporation; (iii) any person transferring shares of Class B Common Stock to such partnership or corporation after the record date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock; provided, however, that such transferor may not receive shares of Class B Common Stock in excess of the shares of Class B Common Stock transferred by the transferor to such partnership or corporation; (iv) any Permitted Transferee of any person meeting the requirements set forth in subparagraph (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph, but not in excess of the number of shares such stockholder or person is entitled to receive pursuant to this paragraph; and (v) the survivor of a merger or consolidation of such corporation if those persons who owned beneficially sufficient shares entitled to elect at least a majority of the entire board of directors of such constituent corporation immediately prior to the merger or consolidation own beneficially sufficient shares entitled to elect at least a majority of the entire board of directors of the surviving corporation, provided that if by reason of any change in the ownership of such stock of the surviving corporation such surviving corporation would no longer qualify as a Permitted Transferee of such Class B Holder, all shares of Class B Common Stock then held by such surviving corporation shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock. In the case of a Class B Holder holding such shares of Class B Common Stock as trustee pursuant to a trust that is an irrevocable trust on the record date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock, a Permitted Transferee consists only of: (i) any successor trustee of such trust who meets the requirements set forth in subsection (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph; (ii) any person to whom or for whose benefit the principal or income may be distributed under the terms of such trust or any person to whom such trust may be obligated to make future transfers, provided such obligation exists prior to the date such trust becomes a holder of Class B Common Stock; and (iii) any family member of the creator of such trust. In the case of a Class B Holder holding such shares of Class B Common Stock as trustee pursuant to a trust that is any trust other than an irrevocable trust described in the immediately -5- 6 preceding paragraph on the date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock, a Permitted Transferee consists only of: (i) any successor trustee of such trust who meets the requirements set forth in subsection (ii) of this paragraph; and (ii) the person who established such trust and any Permitted Transferee of such person. In the case of a record (but not beneficial) owner of Class B Common Stock as nominee for the person who is the beneficial owner thereof on the record date of the initial distribution of Class B Common Stock, a Permitted Transferee consists only of such beneficial owner and any Permitted Transferee of such beneficial owner. Upon the death or permanent incapacity of any Class B Holder, such Class B Holder's Class B Common Stock shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the expiration of 90 days after the death or permanent incapacity of Darwin Deason or upon the conversion by The Deason International Trust of all of the shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by Mr. Deason into shares of Class A Common Stock, any and all shares of Class B Common Stock shall immediately and automatically be converted into Class A Common Stock on a share-for-share basis, and stock certificates formerly representing such shares of Class B Common Stock shall thereupon and thereafter be deemed to represent a like number of shares of Class A Common Stock. Shares of Class B Common Stock are freely transferrable among Permitted Transferees, but any other transfer of any share of Class B Common Stock will result in the automatic conversion of such share into Class A Common Stock. (d) Dividends and Liquidation Rights. After dividends have been declared and set aside for payment or paid on any series of Preferred Stock having a preference over the Common Stock with respect to payment of such dividends, the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive and to share equally in, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors"), dividends per share, out of the funds legally available therefor, in such amounts as the Board of Directors may from time to time fix and determine, in its sole and absolute discretion. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, after there have been paid or set apart for the holders of any series of Preferred Stock having a preference over the Common Stock with respect to distributions upon liquidation the full amount to which they are entitled, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive and to share equally in all assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders. (e) Other Rights. The holders of Common Stock are not entitled to any preemptive right to subscribe for, purchase or receive any part of any new or additional issue of stock of any class, whether now or hereafter authorized, or of bonds, debentures or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock, and all such additional shares of stock of any class, or bonds, debentures or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock, may be issued and disposed of by the Company on such terms and for such consideration, so far as may be permitted by law, and to such persons as the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion may deem advisable. -6- 7 Section 4. Preferred Stock. Preferred Stock may be issued in one or more series. The Board of Directors is hereby authorized to issue the shares of Preferred Stock in such series and to fix from time to time before issuance the number of shares to be included in any such series and the designation, relative powers, preferences, and rights and qualifications, limitations, or restrictions of all shares of such series. The authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each such series will include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the determination of any or all of the following: (a) the number of shares of any series and the designation to distinguish the shares of such series from the shares of all other series; (b) the voting powers, if any, and whether such voting powers are full or limited in such series; (c) the redemption provisions, if any, applicable to such series, including the redemption price to be paid; (d) whether dividends, if any, will be cumulative or noncumulative, the dividend rate of such series, and the dates and preferences of dividends on such series; (e) the rights of such series upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Company; (f) the provisions, if any, pursuant to which the shares of such series are convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes or of any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock, or any other security, of the Company or any other corporation or other entity, and the price or prices or the rates of exchange applicable thereto; (g) the right, if any, to subscribe for or to purchase any securities of the Company or any other corporation or other entity; (h) the provisions, if any, of a sinking fund applicable to such series; and (i) any other relative, participating, optional, or other special powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof; all as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors and stated in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance of such Preferred Stock (collectively, a "Preferred Stock Designation"). Section 5. Restrictions on Transfer of Restricted Stock. In the event the Company makes a distribution (a "Spin-Off") of all of the outstanding stock held by it in Precept Business Products, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (a "Subsidiary"), to the Company's stockholders, which Spin-Off is intended to qualify pursuant to Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), then for a period commencing on the date established by the Board of Directors of the Company for such distribution of stock of a Subsidiary in a Spin-Off (the "Distribution Date") and ending on the second anniversary thereof, (a) no Transfer of Restricted Stock (as hereinafter defined) may be effected unless the Company has first received (i) a counterpart of the proposed instrument of Transfer of Restricted Stock and any proposed instrument of Transfer of stock of the Subsidiary, if any, executed and acknowledged by the parties thereto, and (ii) all other information reasonably requested by the Company with respect to the proposed Transfer and (b) any Transfer of Restricted Stock shall be null and void from its inception unless the Company approves such Transfer based upon the findings of a Tax Opinion (as hereinafter defined) that the Transfer Conditions (as hereinafter defined) have been satisfied with respect to such Transfer. Moreover, for a period commencing on the record date for distribution of stock of a Subsidiary in a Spin-Off (the "Record Date") and ending on the Distribution Date, any Transfer of Restricted Stock shall be null and -7- 8 void from its inception unless such Transfer of Restricted Stock shall include the right to receive the distribution of the stock of the Subsidiary in the Spin-Off. Promptly after the receipt of a request for a Transfer of Restricted Stock, the Company shall, at the Company's expense, seek to obtain a Tax Opinion with respect to such Transfer; provided, however, that if the Company is advised that the opining party is unable to render a Tax Opinion (and the reasons therefor), the Company shall be under no further obligation to determine that the Transfer Conditions have been satisfied or seek a Tax Opinion with respect to such Transfer. For purposes of this Section 5 the following terms shall have the following meanings: (a) "Purported Owner" shall mean any Person who would, but for the provisions of this Section 5, acquire Restricted Stock pursuant to a Transfer prohibited pursuant hereto. (b) "Restricted Stock" shall mean any shares of stock of the Company outstanding as of the Record Date of the Spin-Off the holder of which is entitled to receive stock of the Subsidiary in the Spin-Off and, as to shares of stock held prior to the Effective Time, the holder of which consented to the restrictions on transfer imposed by this Section 5, any shares of stock into which shares of Restricted Stock may be converted, any shares of stock which may be issued as dividends with respect to shares of Restricted Stock and any shares of stock which are otherwise derived from shares of Restricted Stock. (c) "Tax Opinion" shall mean an opinion from nationally recognized tax counsel or "Big 6" accounting firm satisfactory to the Company stating that the Transfer Conditions have been satisfied. The Tax Opinion may be based upon and assume the correctness of factual representations of the Company or the Subsidiary. (d) "Transfer" shall mean the taking of action that, but for the provisions of this Section 5, would be effective to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of stock of either the Company or the Subsidiary (either directly or indirectly and whether voluntarily or involuntarily), and also means any transaction pursuant to which stock of either the Company or the Subsidiary would be Transferred, including, without limitation, any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation, transfer, redemption, sale, assignment, gift or other disposition of any part or all of the stock of either the Company or the Subsidiary (either directly or indirectly and whether voluntarily or involuntarily). (e) "Transfer Conditions" shall mean (i) the Linked Sale Requirements described below, in the event that the Transfer of Restricted Stock constitutes a "sale or exchange" for purposes of the Code other than a "sale or exchange" to a person (a "Related Party") having a relationship to the stockholder desiring to make a Transfer of Restricted Stock (the "Transferor") described in Sections 267 or 707(b) of the Code, or (ii) the Other Requirements described below, in the event that the Transfer of Restricted Stock does not constitute a "sale or exchange" or the Transfer of Restricted Stock constitutes a "sale or exchange" to a Related Party for purposes of the Code. For purposes of rendering a Tax Opinion as to whether the Transfer Conditions have been satisfied, the Linked Sale Requirements shall be deemed to be satisfied if the following requirements are satisfied: (a) Within five business days before or after the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock, the Transferor Transfers an amount of stock of the Subsidiary (the "Linked Sale") that constitutes the same percentage of the Transferor's interest in the Subsidiary as the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock constitutes of the Transferor's interest in the Company, where both such interests are determined as of the Record Date (after giving effect to the Spin-Off); (b) The Linked Sale constitutes a "sale or exchange" for purposes of the Code; and -8- 9 (c) The Transferor represents in writing to the Company that (i) there is no plan or intention to reacquire any of the shares subject to the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock or the Linked Sale, and (ii) the Transferor will not acquire any stock of the Company or the Subsidiary within the 30-day period that commences on the day after the later to occur of the effectiveness for purposes of the Code of the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock and the Linked Sale. For purposes of determining whether a Linked Sale constitutes a "sale or exchange" for purposes of the Code, (a) a redemption by the Subsidiary will not constitute a "sale or exchange" unless (i) Section 302(b)(2) of the Code would be satisfied if the stock of the Transferor were treated as "voting stock," and (ii) the Tax Opinion concludes that the redemption is "not essentially equivalent to a dividend" within the meaning of Section 302(b)(1) of the Code, (b) a redemption by the Subsidiary will not constitute a "sale or exchange" if any obligation provided by the Subsidiary in consideration for the stock does not qualify as "debt" for purposes of the Code, and (c) in no case will any redemption by the Subsidiary of stock held by any Person who, directly or indirectly, controls in the aggregate 50% or more of the voting power of the stock of the Subsidiary constitute a "sale or exchange". For purposes of rendering a Tax Opinion as to whether the Transfer Conditions have been satisfied the Other Requirements shall be deemed to be satisfied if the following requirements are satisfied: (a) Within five business days before or after the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock, the Transferor Transfers an amount of stock of the Subsidiary (the "Other Transfer") that constitutes the same percentage of the Transferor's interest in the Subsidiary as the proposed Transfer of the Restricted Stock constitutes of the Transferor's interest in the Company, where both such interests are determined as of the Record Date (after giving effect to the Spin-Off); (b) The Other Transfer does not constitute a "sale or exchange" or the Other Transfer constitutes a "sale or exchange" to a Related Party for purposes of the Code; (c) The Other Transfer and the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock are made to the same Person; and (d) The Transferor represents in writing to the Company that the proposed Transfer of Restricted Stock and the Other Transfer are not being made for the purpose of facilitating a "sale or exchange" of the stock of the Company or the Subsidiary without a corresponding "sale or exchange" of the stock of the other. If a Person shall (either directly or indirectly and whether voluntarily or involuntarily) become a Purported Owner of Restricted Stock pursuant to a Transfer that is null and void pursuant to this Section 5, then the Purported Owner shall not obtain any rights in and to any such Restricted Stock, the Transfer to the Purported Owner shall not be recognized by the Company and the party making the purported Transfer of the Restricted Stock shall continue to own such Restricted Stock and have all rights, including all voting rights and all rights to any dividends or other distributions, liquidating or otherwise, incident to ownership of the Restricted Stock, which shall continue to be validly issued and outstanding. Upon a determination by the Company that a Transfer of Restricted Stock has purportedly been made or is anticipated to be made in violation of this Section 5, the Company may take such action as it deems advisable to prevent any such Transfer of Restricted Stock, including, without limitation, refuse to give effect to such Transfer on the books and records of the Company, refuse to record the Purported Owner as the record owner of such Restricted Stock, and institute proceedings to enjoin any such Transfer of Restricted Stock. If any provision of this Section 5 or any application of any such provision is determined to be invalid by any federal or state court having jurisdiction over the issues, the remaining provisions shall remain valid and other applications of such provision shall be affected only to the extent necessary to comply with the -9- 10 determination of such court, and this Section 5 shall be construed, in the absence of such provision, to give effect to the purpose of this Section 5 to the maximum extent possible. This Section 5 shall terminate with respect to any Spin-Off as of the second anniversary of the Distribution Date of such Spin-Off or such earlier date as the Board of Directors may by resolution determine if the Board of Directors receives an opinion from a nationally recognized tax counsel or "Big 6" accounting firm that the removal of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5 will not have any material adverse consequences to the Company, the Subsidiary, or the stockholders of either, and the Board of Directors determines that such acceleration is in the best interests of the Company, the Subsidiary, or the stockholders of either. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5, if an initial public offering of shares of New Class A Common Stock is not completed within 180 days after the Distribution Date, the Board of Directors may by resolution accelerate the termination date of this Section 5 to December 31, 1994. In the event the Board of Directors accelerates the termination of this Section 5, the Company shall so notify all registered stockholders. All certificates evidencing ownership of shares of Restricted Stock shall be submitted to the Company prior to the Distribution Date to be imprinted with a conspicuous legend on the front of the certificate as follows: "THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER PURSUANT TO SECTION 5 OF ARTICLE FOURTH OF THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF THE COMPANY, WHICH PROHIBIT, WITH CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, ANY TRANSFERS OF THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY WITHOUT THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY. ANY TRANSFER OR PURPORTED OR ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF ANY OF THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY IN VIOLATION OF SUCH RESTRICTIONS SHALL BE NULL AND VOID FROM ITS INCEPTION." All certificates evidencing ownership of shares of Restricted Stock shall be returned, bearing the legend set forth above, in connection with the distribution of the stock of the Subsidiary in the Spin-Off. After the termination of this Section 5, holders of Restricted Stock may submit their certificates to the Company for removal of such legend. Upon such submission of certificates for removal of the legend, the Company shall promptly issue certificates representing equivalent replacement shares of stock that do not bear such legend. FIFTH: The Board of Directors may make, amend, and repeal the Bylaws of the Company (the "Bylaws"). Any Bylaw made by the Board of Directors under the powers conferred hereby may be amended or repealed by the Board of Directors (except as specified in any such Bylaw so made or amended) or by the stockholders in the manner provided in the Bylaws of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything contained in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary, Bylaws 1, 3, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 33 and 39 may not be amended or repealed by the stockholders, and no provision inconsistent therewith may be adopted by the stockholders, without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 80% of the Voting Stock, voting together as a single class.

(a) Subject to the prior preferences and other rights of any Senior Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of funds legally available therefor, cash dividends per share at the rate of 9% of the Subscription Price per share, per annum, and no more, accruing from and after July 1, 1994. Such dividends shall be cumulative from and after July 1, 1994 and shall be payable in arrears, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each such date being herein referred to as a "Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on September 30, 1994. The quarterly period between consecutive Dividend Payment Dates shall hereinafter be referred to as a "Dividend Period." Each such dividend shall be paid to the holders of record of the Series A Preferred Stock as their names appear on the share register of the Company on the corresponding Record Date. As used above, the term "Record Date" means, with respect to the Dividend payable on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, respectively, of each year, the preceding March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15, or such other record date designated by the Board of Directors of the Company with respect to the dividend payable on such respective Dividend Payment Date. Dividends on account of arrears for any past Dividend Periods may be declared and paid at any time, without reference to any Dividend Payment Date, to holders of record on such date, not exceeding 50 days preceding the payment date thereof, as may be fixed by the Board of Directors. (b) In the event that full cash dividends are not paid or made available to the holders of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock, and funds available shall be insufficient to permit payment in full in cash to all such holders of the preferential amounts to which they are then entitled, the entire amount available for payment of cash dividends shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock ratably in proportion to the full amount to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled, and any remainder not paid in cash to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall cumulate as provided in paragraph 3(c) below. (c) If, on any Dividend Payment Date, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not have received the full dividends provided for in the other provisions of this paragraph 3, then such dividends shall cumulate, whether or not earned or declared, with additional dividends thereon for each succeeding full Dividend Period during which such dividends shall remain unpaid. Unpaid dividends for any period less than a full Dividend Period shall cumulate on a day-to-day basis and shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year. (d) So long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, the Company shall not declare or pay on any Junior Stock any dividend whatsoever, whether in cash, property or otherwise (other than dividends payable in shares of the class or series upon which such dividends are declared or paid, or payable in shares of Common Stock with respect to Junior Stock other than Common Stock, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares), nor shall the Company make any distribution on any Junior Stock, nor shall any Junior Stock be purchased or redeemed by the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall any monies be paid or made available for a sinking fund for the purchase or redemption of any Junior Stock, unless all dividends to which the holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have been entitled for all previous Dividend Periods shall have been paid or declared and a sum of money sufficient for the payment thereof set apart. 4. Distributions Upon Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the affairs of the Company, subject to the prior preferences and other rights of any Senior Stock, but before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of Junior Stock, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid the Subscription Price of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of the date of such liquidation or dissolution or such other winding up, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon to such date, and no more, in cash or in property taken at its fair value as determined by the Board of Directors, or both, at the -2- 17 election of the Board of Directors. If such payment shall have been made in full to the holders of any Series A Preferred Stock, and if payment shall have been made in full to the holders of an Senior Stock and Parity Stock of all amounts to which such holders shall be entitled, the remaining assets and funds of the Company shall be distributed among the holders of Junior Stock, according to their respective shares and priorities. If, upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the net assets of the Company distributable among the holders of all outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment in full to such holders of the preferential amounts to which they are entitled, then the entire net assets of the Company remaining after the distributions to holders of any Senior Stock of the full amount to which they may be entitled shall be distributed among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and of any Parity Stock ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. Neither the consolidation or merger of the Company into or with another corporation or corporations, nor the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation or corporations shall be deemed a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company within the meaning of this paragraph 4. 5. Redemption by the Company. (a) The Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemable at the option of the Company in whole or in part at any time prior to July 15, 1999 out of funds legally available therefor, at a redemption price per share equal to $1,100.00 plus any accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares to be so redeemed. To the extent not previously redeemed, the Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed on the tenth business day following July 15, 1999 at a redemption price equal to $1,100.00 per share plus any accrued but unpaid dividends on shares not previously redeemed. (b) Notice of every proposed redemption of Series A Preferred Stock shall be sent by or on behalf of the Company, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the holders of record of the shares to be redeemed at their respective addresses as they shall appear on the records of the Company, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the applicable date fixed for redemption set forth in Section 5(a) (the "Redemption Date") (i) stating the place or places at which the shares called for redemption shall, upon presentation and surrender of the certificates evidencing such shares, be redeemed, and the Redemption Price therefor, and (ii) stating the name and address of any Redemption Agent if other than the Company, and the name and address of the Company's transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company may act as the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock. (c) If notice of redemption shall have been given as hereinbefore provided, and the Company shall not default in the payment of the Redemption Price, then each holder of shares called for redemption shall be entitled to all preferences and relative and other rights accorded by this resolution until and including the date prior to the Redemption Date. If the Company shall default in making payment or delivery as aforesaid on the Redemption Date, then each holder of the shares called for redemption shall be entitled to all preferences and relative and other rights accorded by this resolution until and including the date prior to the date (the "Final Redemption Date") when the Company makes payment or delivery as aforesaid to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock. From and after the Redemption Date or, if the Company shall default in making payment or delivery as aforesaid, the Final Redemption Date, the shares called for redemption shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the holders of such shares shall cease and terminate, except the right of the holders of such shares, upon surrender of certificates therefor, to receive amounts to be paid hereunder. 6. Voting Rights. The holders of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights except as set forth herein and as required by law. 7. Issuance of Senior Stock or Parity Stock. Without the written consent of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company will not issue any Senior Stock or Parity Stock while any Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, if as the result thereof, the net capital of the Company available for distribution upon liquidation (determined by the application of generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied) will be less than the sum of the liquidation value of the outstanding Senior Stock and the outstanding Parity Stock and 150% of the Redemption Price of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. -3- 18 8. Capital. On any redemption of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company's capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Subscription Price multiplied by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock redeemable on such date. The provisions of this paragraph 8 shall apply to all certificates representing the Series A Preferred Stock whether or not all such certificates have been surrendered to the Company. 9. Deposits by the Company. The Company shall make quarterly cash deposits, out of funds legally available therefor, into a segregated account established by the Company at a federally insured financial institution designated by the holder of the Series A Preferred Shares (the "Special Account") on September 30, December 31, March 31 and June 30 (or the next business day following any such date, if such is not a business day) during each period set forth below in the amounts set forth below opposite such period.

Such amounts shall be maintained for payment of the Redemption Price in accordance with the terms hereof unless and until any holder of the Series A Preferred Shares converts such shares into the Company's Class A Common Stock pursuant to paragraph 10 below. The Company shall at all times retain the right to direct the investment of all funds in the Special Account and shall be entitled to all interest, dividends or other proceeds earned on or paid with respect to such funds. 10.

The Company will, at its expense, register the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing conversion rights for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and under any applicable state securities laws, such that the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing conversion rights will be immediately saleable and will remain saleable through September 1, 1996.

Exclusion of Other Rights. Except as may otherwise be required by law, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any preferences or relative, participating, optional or other special -4- 19 rights, other than those specifically set forth in this resolution (as such resolution may be amended from time to time) and in the certificate of incorporation of the Company. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no preemptive or subscription rights. 12. Heading of Subdivisions. The headings of the various subdivisions hereof are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the provisions hereof. 13. Severability of Provisions. If any right, preference or limitation of the Series A preferred Stock set forth in this resolution (as such resolution may be amended from time to time) is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other rights, preferences and limitations set forth in this resolution (as so amended) which can be given effect within the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable right, preference or limitation shall, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no right, preference or limitation herein set forth shall be deemed dependent upon any other such right, preference or limitation unless so expressed herein. 14. Status of Reacquired Shares. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock which have been issued and reacquired by the Company in any manner shall (upon compliance with any applicable provisions of the laws of the State of Delaware) have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable in series or undesignated as to series and may be redesignated and reissued. -5- 20 [STAMP] CERTIFICATE OF MERGER MERGING AFFILIATED COMPUTER SERVICES, INC.
