directors at a meeting held on July 17, 2003:

            1.  Article  II,  Section 3,  titled  "Special  Meetings"  is hereby
deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

                         Special meetings of the shareholders shall be
               held at the principal  office of the Corporation in the
               State of New York,  or at such  other  place  within or
               without the State of New York as may be  designated  in
               the notice of said  meeting.  Special  meetings  of the
               shareholders,  for any purpose or purposes,  (a) may be
               called  at any  time by the  Board  of  Directors,  the
               Chairman  of the Board or the  President,  (b) shall be
               called by the  Chairman  of the Board or the  Secretary
               upon the written request of the holders of at least 25%
               of the shares of the Corporation issued and outstanding
               and entitled to vote  thereat,  or (c) may be called as
               otherwise required under the provisions of the Business
               Corporation Law. In the event that a special meeting of

               hereof,  such  meeting  shall be held within sixty (60)
               days of the receipt by the  Corporation  of the written

               meeting at which a quorum is  present,  except that the
               Board  shall not have the  power to adopt  any  By-Laws
               which by statute only the shareholders have power to so
               adopt.  These By-Laws,  and any amendments  thereto and
               new By-Laws  adopted by the Board of  Directors  may be
               amended or repealed or  additional  By-Laws  adopted by
