INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS The information required by Part I is included in documents sent or given to participants under the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). PART II. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT Item 3. Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference The Registrant is subject to the informational and reporting requirements of Sections 13(a), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in accordance therewith files reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). The following documents, which are on file with the Commission, are incorporated in this Registration Statement by reference: (l) The Registrant's latest annual report filed pursuant to Sections l3(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, or the latest prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act that contains audited financial statements for the Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have been filed.

(3) The description of the common stock of the Registrant, $.03 1/3 par value per share, contained in a Registration Statement filed under the Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description. All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all shares of common stock offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all shares of common stock then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be part hereof from the date of the filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement. Item 4. Description of Securities Not applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel The legality of the Common Stock being offered hereby will be passed upon for the Registrant by Hale and Dorr LLP, Boston, Massachusetts. As of the date hereof, partners of Hale and Dorr LLP own approximately 187,500 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant. Item 6. Indemnification Under Article Sixth of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Article Fifth of the Registrant's By-Laws, each person who is a director or officer of the Registrant shall be indemnified by the Registrant to the full extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware ("Section 145"). Section l45 provides a detailed statutory framework covering indemnification of directors and officers of liabilities and expenses arising out of legal proceedings brought against them by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. This section provides that a director or officer of a corporation (i) shall be indemnified by the corporation for all expenses of such legal proceedings when he is successful on the merits, (ii) may be indemnified by the corporation for the expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of such proceedings (other than a derivative suit), even if he is not successful on the merits, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation (and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful), and (iii) may be indemnified by the corporation for expenses of a derivative suit (a suit by a shareholder alleging a breach by a director or officer of a duty owed to the corporation), even if he is not successful on the merits, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification may be made under clause (iii) above, however, if the director or officer is adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duties to the corporation, unless a court determines that, despite such adjudication and in view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to indemnification. The indemnification described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above may be made only upon a determination that indemnification is proper because the applicable standard of conduct has been met. Such a determination may be made by a majority of a quorum of disinterested directors, independent legal counsel or the stockholders. The board of directors may authorize advancing litigation expenses to a director or officer upon receipt of an undertaking by such director or officer to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified for them. The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors which supplement or clarify the statutory indemnity provisions of Section l45 in the following respects: (i) the presumption that the director or officer met the applicable standard of conduct is established, (ii) the advancement of litigation expenses is provided upon request if the director or officer agrees to repay them if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification for them, (iii) indemnity is explicitly provided for settlements of derivative actions, (iv) the director or officer is permitted to petition a court to determine whether his actions met the standard required, and (v) partial indemnification is permitted in the event that the director or officer is not entitled to full indemnification. As permitted by Section l45, the Registrant has purchased a general liability insurance policy which covers certain liabilities of directors and officers of the Registrant arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacity as directors or officers and for which they are not indemnified by the Registrant. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed Not applicable. Item 8. Exhibits The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits to this Registration Statement is incorporated herein by reference. Item 9. Undertakings 1. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, however that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. 2. The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. 3. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Roy, Utah, on the 22nd day of April, 1997.

(a) The holders of record of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, out of any funds legally available therefor, dividends at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum of the Series A Preference (as defined in Subsection 2(a) below) of such shares for the 1989 calendar year and at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum of the Series A Preference thereafter. Accrued dividends for each calendar year shall be paid annually on the March 31 (a "dividend payment date") following the end of such calendar year (commencing March 31, 1990) to holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock on such record date (not more than 60 days prior to March 31) as is established by the Board of Directors for such dividend. Dividends at the applicable rates set forth above shall accrue daily and be cumulative from January 1, 1989. For purposes of the payment of dividends in cash, the amount of any dividends accrued on any shares of Series A Preferred Stock at any dividend payment date shall be deemed to be the amount of any unpaid dividends accumulated thereon to and including the last day of the preceding calendar year, whether or not earned or declared. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, accrued dividends for any calendar year shall not be required to be paid unless the Corporation's after- tax net income (before any extraordinary benefits) for such year, as shown on the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, is equal to or greater than the sum of the aggregate amount of such accrued dividends. Any accrued dividends that are not paid shall be paid on the dividend payment date following the end of the first succeeding calendar year in which the Corporation's after-tax net income, before any extraordinary benefits (determined as set forth above), is sufficient to pay all of such accrued but unpaid dividends and the regular dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock for such year. (b) So long as shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, no cash dividends shall be paid or declared on the Common Stock of the Corporation or any security ranking junior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends, unless all dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock for all past dividend payment dates shall have been paid and the full dividend payment for the dividend payment date next succeeding the payment date of such cash dividend shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. 2. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. (a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, after and subject to the payment in full of all amounts required to be distributed to the holders of any other class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation prior and in preference to the Series A Preferred Stock (collectively referred to as "Senior Preferred Stock"), but before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Series A Preferred Stock (such Common Stock and other stock being collectively referred to as "Junior Stock") by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount equal to $5.00 per share (the "Series A Preference"). The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and any other class or series of stock ranking on liquidation on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. (b) After the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of Senior Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and any other class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Junior Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to receive the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders. (c) A consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation or entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not be regarded as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 2. 3. VOTING. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. 4. OPTIONAL CONVERSION. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the "Series A Conversion Rights"): (a) As used herein, the following items shall have the following respective meanings: (i) "CONVERSION DATE" shall have the meaning set forth in Subsection 4(d)(i). (ii) "MARKET VALUE" shall mean (A) if the Common Stock of the Corporation is listed on any national securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market System, the reported last sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or system, or, if the Common Stock shall not be so listed, (B) the average of the closing bid and asked prices for the Common Stock, as reported by NASDAQ, or (C) if there are no such closing bid and asked prices, the fair market value of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. (iii) "SERIES A MINIMUM CONVERSION PRICE" shall mean $15.00 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4. (iv) "SERIES A CONVERSION PRICE" shall mean, as of the applicable Conversion Date, the greater of (A) the average of the Market Values of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days preceding (but not including) such Conversion Date, or (B) the then effective Series A Minimum Conversion Price. (v) "TRADING DAY" shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is generally open for trading. (b) RIGHT TO CONVERT. If (but only if) the Market Value of Common Stock of the Corporation shall have been equal to or greater than the Series A Minimum Conversion Price for at least 20 of the 30 Trading Days preceding the Conversion Date, holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may convert all or any of such shares, on such Conversion Date, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by (i) multiplying the aggregate Series A Preferences of the shares so converted by 1.5, (ii) adding to such sum the aggregate amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends on such shares, excluding any such dividends declared for payment by the Board of Directors to holders of Series A Preferred Stock on a record date occurring prior to or on the Conversion Date, and (iii) dividing the sum so obtained by the Series A Conversion Price in effect on such Conversion Date. In the event of a notice of redemption of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the Series A Conversion Rights of the shares designated for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the fifth Trading Day preceding the date fixed for redemption. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the Series A Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the first Trading Day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any amounts distributable on liquidation to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock. (c) FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective Series A Conversion Price. (d) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. (i) In order for a holder of Series A Preferred Stock to convert shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock, at the office of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock represented by such certificate or certificates. Such notice shall state such holder's name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) shall be the Conversion Date, provided, however, that in the event that the shares tendered for conversion are not eligible for conversion on the date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), the transfer agent or Corporation shall promptly return such certificates to the registered holder. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series A Preferred Stock, or to his or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share. (ii) The Corporation shall at all times when the Series A Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. (iii) All shares of Series A Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall immediately cease and terminate on the Conversion Date, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive (A) shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor pursuant to Subsection 4(b), (B) payments of accrued but unpaid dividends in accordance with Subsection 4(d)(iv) and (C) payments in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Subsection 4(c). Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series A Preferred Stock accordingly. (iv) In the case of any share of Series A Preferred Stock which is converted after any dividend record date and on or prior to the corresponding dividend payment date (except shares of Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption during such period as to which any accrued and unpaid dividends shall have been paid), the dividend payable on such dividend payment date shall be paid on such date notwithstanding such conversion and such dividend shall be paid to the person who is the holder of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock at the close of business on such dividend record date. (e) ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the date on which a share of Series A Preferred Stock was first issued (the "Series A Original Issue Date") effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Series A Minimum Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Series A Minimum Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (f) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event the Corporation at any time, or from time to time after the Series A Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Series A Minimum Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Series A Minimum Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Series A Minimum Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Series A Minimum Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (g) ADJUSTMENT FOR MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock) or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another corporation, entity or person, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or assets to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation deliverable upon conversion of such Series A Preferred Stock would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale (assuming for this purpose the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to Subsection 4(b) at the then effective Series A Conversion Price). (h) CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series A Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Series A Minimum Conversion Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock. 5. MANDATORY CONVERSION. (a) The Corporation may, at its option, require all, but not less than all, holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective Series A Conversion price and otherwise in accordance with the terms of Section 4, if the Market Value of the Common Stock has been equal to or greater than the Series A Minimum Conversion Price for at least 20 of the 30 Trading Days prior to notice of such required conversion by the Corporation. (b) All holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock will be given at least 10 days' prior written notice of the date fixed and the place designated for mandatory conversion of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5. Such notice will be sent by first class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Series A Preferred Stock at such holder's address last shown on the records of the transfer agent for the Series A Preferred Stock (or the records of the Corporation, if it serves as its own transfer agent). On or before the date fixed for conversion, each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall surrender his or its certificate or certificates for all such shares to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice, and shall thereafter receive certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 5. On the date fixed for conversion, all rights with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote, will terminate, except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor, to receive (i) certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series A Preferred Stock has been converted, (ii) payments of any accrued but unpaid dividends in accordance with Subsection 4(d)(iv) and (iii) payments in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Subsection 4(c). If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his or its attorney duly authorized in writing. As soon as practicable after the date of such mandatory conversion and the surrender of the certificate or certificates for Series A Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall cause to be issued and delivered to such holder, or on his or its written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and cash as provided in Subsection 4(c) in respect of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion. (c) All certificates evidencing shares of Series A Preferred Stock which are required to be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof shall, from and after the date such certificates are so required to be surrendered, be deemed to have been retired and cancelled and the shares of Series A Preferred Stock represented thereby converted into Common Stock for all purposes, notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender such certificates on or prior to such date. The Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series A Preferred Stock accordingly. 6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. (a) The Corporation will, subject to the conditions set forth in Subsection 6(b) below, on the date ten years after the Series A Original Issue Date (the "Series A Redemption Date"), redeem from each holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, at a price per share equal to the Series A Preference, plus an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon (the "Series A Redemption Price"), all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder on the Series A Redemption Date. (b) If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of Series A Preferred Stock on the Series A Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding, those funds which are legally available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares of Series A Preferred Stock ratably on the basis of the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock which would be redeemed on such date if the funds of the Corporation legally available therefor had been sufficient to redeem all shares of Series A Preferred Stock. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation become legally available for the redemption of Series A Preferred Stock, such funds will be used, after the end of the next succeeding fiscal quarter (also referred to as a "Series A Redemption Date"), to redeem the balance of the shares, ratably on the basis set forth in the preceding sentence. (c) The Corporation shall provide notice of any redemption of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6 specifying the time and place of redemption and the Series A Redemption Price, by first class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of Series A Preferred Stock at the address for such holder last shown on the records of the transfer agent therefor (or the records of the Corporation, if it serves as its own transfer agent), not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date on which such redemption is to be made. If less than all Series A Preferred Stock owned by such holder is then to be redeemed, the notice will also specify the number of shares which are to be redeemed. Upon mailing any such notice of redemption, the Corporation will become obligated to redeem at the time of redemption specified therein all Series A Preferred Stock specified therein (other than such shares of Series A Preferred Stock as are duly converted pursuant to Section 4 or Section 5 prior to the close of business on the fifth Trading Day preceding the Series A Redemption Date). In case less than all Series A Preferred Stock represented by any certificate is redeemed in any redemption pursuant to this Section 6, a new certificate will be issued representing the unredeemed Series A Preferred Stock to the holder thereof. (d) No share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to any dividends declared after its Series A Redemption Date, and on such Series A Redemption Date all rights of the holder of such share as a stockholder of the Corporation by reason of the ownership of such share will cease, except the right to receive the Series A Redemption Price of such share, without interest, upon presentation and surrender of the certificate representing such share, and such share will not from and after such Series A Redemption Date be deemed to be outstanding. (e) Any Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 will be cancelled and will not under any circumstances be reissued, sold or transferred and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series A Preferred Stock accordingly. B. SERIES B CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK. Two hundred fifty thousand (250,000) shares of the authorized and unissued Preferred Stock of the Corporation are hereby designated "Series B Convertible Preferred Stock" (the "Series B Preferred Stock") with the following rights, preferences, powers, privileges and restrictions, qualifications and limitations. 1. DIVIDENDS. (a) The holders of record of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, out of any funds legally available therefor, dividends at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum of the Series B Preference (as defined in Subsection 2(a) below) of such shares for the 1989 calendar year and at the rate of six percent (6%) per annum of the Series B Preference thereafter. Accrued dividends for each calendar year shall be paid annually on the March 31 (a "dividend payment date") following the end of such calendar year (commencing March 31, 1990) to holders of record of shares of Series B Preferred Stock on such record date (not more than 60 days prior to March 31) as is established by the Board of Directors for such dividend. Dividends at the applicable rates set forth above shall accrue daily and be cumulative from January 1, 1989. The amount of any dividends accrued on any shares of Series B Preferred Stock at any dividend payment date shall be deemed to be the amount of any unpaid dividends accumulated thereon to and including the last day of the preceding calendar year, whether or not earned or declared. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, accrued dividends for any calendar year shall not be required to be paid unless the Corporation's after- tax net income (before any extraordinary benefits) for such year, as shown on the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, is equal to or greater than the sum of the aggregate amount of such accrued dividends and the aggregate amount of all dividends required to be paid on the Series A Preferred Stock for such year. Any accrued dividends that are not paid shall be paid on the dividend payment date following the end of the first succeeding calendar year in which the Corporation's after-tax net income, before any extraordinary benefits (determined as set forth above), is sufficient to pay all of such accrued but unpaid dividends, the regular dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock for such year and all accrued but unpaid dividends required to be paid on such dividend payment date with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock. (b) So long as shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, no cash dividends shall be paid or declared on the Common Stock of the Corporation or any security ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends, unless all dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock for all past dividend payment dates shall have been paid and the full dividend payment for the dividend payment date next succeeding the payment date of such cash dividend shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment. 2. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. (a) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, after and subject to the payment in full of all amounts required to be distributed to the holders of any other class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation prior and in preference to the Series B Preferred Stock (collectively referred to as "Senior Preferred Common Stock"), but before any payment shall be made to the holders of Common Stock or any other class or series of stock ranking on liquidation junior to the Series B Preferred Stock (such Common Stock and other stock being collectively referred to as "Junior Stock") by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount equal to $5.00 per share (the "Series B Preference "). The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank on a parity with the Series A Preferred Stock upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, Series A Preferred Stock and any other class or series of stock ranking on liquidation on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full. (b) After the payment of all preferential amounts required to be paid to the holders of Senior Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and any other class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock, upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the holders of shares of Junior Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to receive the remaining assets and funds of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders. (c) A consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation or entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall not be regarded as a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 2. 3. VOTING. The Corporation shall not amend, alter or repeal the preferences, special rights or other powers of the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely the Series B Preferred Stock, or authorize any class or series of capital stock having a preference over the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to liquidation or redemption rights or dividends, without the written consent or affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, given in writing or by vote at a meeting, consenting or voting (as the case may be) separately as a class. Except as expressly set forth above or as otherwise required by law, holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights. 4. OPTIONAL CONVERSION. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows (the "Series B Conversion Rights"): (a) As used herein, the following items shall have the following respective meanings: (i) "CONVERSION DATE" shall have the meaning set forth in Subsection 4(d)(i). (ii) "MARKET VALUE" shall mean (A) if the Common Stock of the Corporation is listed on any national securities exchange or the NASDAQ National Market System, the reported last sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or system, or (B) if the Common Stock shall not be so listed, the average of the closing bid and asked prices for the Common Stock, as reported by NASDAQ, or (C) if there are no such closing bid and asked prices, the fair market value of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. (iii) "SERIES B MINIMUM CONVERSION PRICE" shall mean $7.50 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4. (iv) "SERIES B CONVERSION PRICE" shall mean, as of the applicable Conversion Date, the greater of (A) the average of the Market Values of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days preceeding (but not including) such Conversion Date, or (B) the then effective Series B Minimum Conversion Price. (v) "TRADING DAY" shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is generally open for trading. (b) RIGHT TO CONVERT. If (but only if) the Market Value of Common Stock of the Corporation shall have been equal to or greater than the Series B Minimum Conversion Price for at least 20 of the 30 Trading Days preceding the Conversion Date, holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock may convert all or any of such shares, on such Conversion Date, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by (i) multiplying the aggregate Series B Preferences of the shares so converted by 1.5, (ii) adding to such sum the aggregate amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends on such shares, excluding any such dividends declared for payment by the Board of Directors to holders of Series B Preferred Stock on a record date occurring prior to or on the Conversion Date, and (iii) dividing the sum so obtained by the Series B Conversion Price in effect on such Conversion Date. In the event of a notice of redemption of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the Series B Conversion Rights of the shares designated for redemption shall terminate at the close of business on the fifth Trading Day preceding the date fixed for redemption. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, the Series B Conversion Rights shall terminate at the close of business on the first Trading Day preceding the date fixed for the payment of any amounts distributable on liquidation to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock. (c) FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock. In lieu of any fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the Corporation shall pay cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the then effective Series B Conversion Price. (d) MECHANICS OF CONVERSION. (i) In order for a holder of Series B Preferred Stock to convert shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall surrender the certificate or certificates for such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, at the office of the transfer agent for the Series B Preferred Stock (or at the principal office of the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or any number of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock represented by such certificate or certificates. Such notice shall state such holder's name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued. If required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent) shall be the Conversion Date, provided, however, that in the event that the shares tendered for conversion are not eligible for conversion on the date of receipt of such certificates and notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent), the transfer agent or Corporation shall promptly return such certificates to the registered holder. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver at such office to such holder of Series B Preferred Stock, or to his or its nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share. (ii) The Corporation shall at all times when the Series B Preferred Stock shall be outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. (iii) All shares of Series B Preferred Stock which shall have been surrendered for conversion as herein provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and to vote, shall immediately cease and terminate on the Conversion Date, except only the right of the holders thereof to receive (A) shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor pursuant to Subsection 4(b), (B) payments of accrued but unpaid dividends in accordance with Subsection 4(d)(iv) and (C) payments in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Subsection 4(c). Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock so converted shall be retired and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series B Preferred Stock accordingly. (iv) In the case of any share of Series B Preferred Stock which is converted after any dividend record date and on or prior to the corresponding dividend payment date (except shares of Series B Preferred Stock called for redemption during such period as to which any accrued and unpaid dividends shall have been paid), the dividend payable on such dividend payment date shall be paid on such date notwithstanding such conversion an such dividend shall be paid to the person who is the holder of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business on such dividend record date. (e) ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS AND COMBINATIONS. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the date on which a share of Series B Preferred Stock was first issued (the "Series B Original Issue Date") effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Series B Minimum Conversion Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Series B Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Series B Minimum Conversion Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (f) ADJUSTMENT FOR DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. In the event the Corporation at any time, or from time to time after the Series B Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Series B Minimum Conversion Price then in effect shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Series B Minimum Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Series B Minimum Conversion Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Series B Minimum Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (g) ADJUSTMENT FOR MERGER OR REORGANIZATION, ETC. In case of any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Corporation is the surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock) or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation to another corporation, entity or person, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or assets to which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation deliverable upon conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock would have been entitled upon such consolidation, merger or sale (assuming for this purpose the conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock pursuant to Subsection 4(b) at the then effective Series B Conversion Price). (h) CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of Series B Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Series B Minimum Conversion Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other property which then would be received upon the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock. 5. MANDATORY CONVERSION. (a) The Corporation may, at its option, require all, but not less than all, holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding to convert their shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective Series B Conversion Price and otherwise in accordance with the terms of Section 4, if the Market Value of the Common Stock has been equal to or greater than the Series B Minimum Conversion Price for at least 20 of the 30 Trading Days prior to notice of such required conversion by the Corporation. (b) All holders of record of shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be given at least 10 days' prior written notice of the date fixed and the place designated for mandatory conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 5. Such notice will be sent by first class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each record holder of Series B Preferred Stock at such holder's address last shown on the records of the transfer agent for the Series B Preferred Stock (or the records of the Corporation, if it serves as its own transfer agent). On or before the date fixed for conversion, each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall surrender his or its certificate or certificates for all such shares to the Corporation at the place designated in such notice, and shall thereafter receive certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 5. On the date fixed for conversion, all rights with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock so converted, including the rights, if any, to receive notices and vote, will terminate, except only the rights of the holders thereof, upon surrender of their certificate or certificates therefor, to receive (i) certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock into which such Series B Preferred Stock has been converted, (ii) payments of any accrued but unpaid dividends in accordance with Subsection 4(d)(iv) and (iii) payments in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Subsection 4(c). If so required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion shall be endorsed or accompanied by written instrument or instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly executed by the registered holder or by his or its attorney duly authorized in writing. As soon as practicable after the date of such mandatory conversion and the surrender of the certificate or certificates for Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall cause to be issued and delivered to such holder, or on his or its written order, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable on such conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof and cash as provided in Subsection 4(c) in respect of any fraction of a share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion. (c) All certificates evidencing shares of Series B Preferred Stock which are required to be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the provisions hereof shall, from and after the date such certificates are so required to be surrendered, be deemed to have been retired and cancelled and the shares of Series B Preferred Stock represented thereby converted into Common Stock for all purposes, notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to surrender such certificates on or prior to such date. The Corporation may thereafter take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series B Preferred Stock accordingly. 6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. (a) The Corporation will, subject to the conditions set forth in Subsection 6(b) below, on the date ten years after the Series B Original Issue Date (the "Series B Redemption Date"), redeem from each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, at a price per share equal to the Series B Preference, plus an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon (the "Series B Redemption Price"), all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder on the Series B Redemption Date. (b) If the funds of the Corporation legally available for redemption of Series B Preferred Stock on the Series B Redemption Date are insufficient to redeem all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding, those funds which are legally available will be used to redeem the maximum possible number of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock ratably on the basis of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock which would be redeemed on such date if the funds of the Corporation legally available therefor had been sufficient to redeem all shares of Series B Preferred Stock. At any time thereafter when additional funds of the Corporation become legally available for the redemption of Series B Preferred Stock, such funds will be used, after the end of the next succeeding fiscal quarter (also referred to as a "Series B Redemption Date"), to redeem the balance of the shares, ratably on the basis set forth in the preceding sentence. (c) The Corporation shall provide notice of any redemption of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6 specifying the time and place of redemption and the Series B Redemption Price, by first class or registered mail, postage prepaid, to each holder of record of Series B Preferred Stock at the address for such holder last shown on the records of the transfer agent therefor (or the records of the Corporation, if it serves as its own transfer agent), not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date on which such redemption is to be made. If less than all Series B Preferred Stock owned by such holder is then to be redeemed, the notice will also specify the number of shares which are to be redeemed. Upon mailing any such notice of redemption, the Corporation will become obligated to redeem at the time of redemption specified therein all Series B Preferred Stock specified therein (other than such shares of Series B Preferred Stock as are duly converted pursuant to Section 4 or Section 5 prior to the close of business on the fifth Trading Day preceding the Series B Redemption Date). In case less than all Series B Preferred Stock represented by any certificate is redeemed in any redemption pursuant to this Section 6, a new certificate will be issued representing the unredeemed Series B Preferred Stock to the holder thereof. (d) No share of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to any dividends declared after its Series B Redemption Date, and on such Series B Redemption Date all rights of the holder of such share as a stockholder of the Corporation by reason of the ownership of such share will cease, except the right to receive the Series B Redemption Price of such share, without interest, upon presentation and surrender of the certificate representing such share, and such share will not from and after such Series B Redemption Date be deemed to be outstanding. (e) Any Series B Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Section 6 will be cancelled and will not under any circumstances be reissued, sold or transferred and the Corporation may from time to time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized Series B Preferred Stock accordingly. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Designation to be duly executed by its Chief Executive Officer and attested by its Assistant Secretary, and its corporate seal to be affixed this 27th day of October, 1987.

Kucha Chief Executive Officer Attest: /s/ Gwenn Newbold - ----------------------------- Gwenn Newbold Assistant Secretary [Corporate Seal] CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS of SERIES C JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK of IOMEGA CORPORATION - ------------------------------ Iomega Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the "Corporation"), pursuant to the authority conferred on the Board of Directors of the Corporation by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, hereby certifies that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation at a meeting duly called and held on July 28, 1989: RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of this Corporation in accordance with the provisions of its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, there is hereby created a series of preferred stock, $.01 par value (the "Preferred Stock"), of the Corporation to be designated as "Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock"; and, subject to the limitations provided by law and by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other rights of, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions upon, the Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall be as follows: SERIES C JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK: 1. DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT. The shares of such series shall be designated as "Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock" (the "Series C Preferred Stock") and the number of shares constituting the Series C Preferred Stock shall be 250,000. Such number of shares shall be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (hereinafter, the "Board of Directors" or the "Board"); PROVIDED, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into Series C Preferred Stock. 2. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. (a) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock (or any similar stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series C Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock, par value $.03 1/3 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Corporation, and of any other security ranking junior to the Series C Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends, quarterly dividends payable in cash on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of Series C Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (i) $1 or (ii) subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 100 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 100 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series C Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. (b) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series C Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2 immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock) and the Corporation shall pay such dividend or distribution on the Series C Preferred Stock before the dividend or distribution declared on the Common Stock is paid or set apart; provided that, in the event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on the Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of $1 per share on the Series C Preferred Stock shall nevertheless be payable on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. (c) Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series C Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof. 3. VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights: (a) Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 100 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. (b) Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Certificate of Incorporation or by law, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. (c) (i) If any time dividends on any Series C Preferred Stock shall be in arrears in an amount equal to six quarterly dividends thereon, the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series from all other series of Preferred Stock and classes of capital stock, shall be entitled to elect two members of the Board of Directors in addition to any Directors elected by any other series, class or classes of securities and the authorized number of Directors will automatically be increased by two. Promptly thereafter, the Board of Directors of this Corporation shall, as soon as may be practicable, call a special meeting of holders of Series C Preferred Stock for the purpose of electing such members of the Board of Directors. Said special meeting shall in any event be held within 45 days of the occurrence of such arrearage. (ii) During any period when the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series, shall be entitled and shall have exercised their right to elect two Directors, then and during such time as such right continues (A) the then authorized number of Directors shall be increased by two, and the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series, shall be entitled to elect the additional Director so provided for, and (B) each such additional Director shall not be a member of any existing class of the Board of Directors, but shall serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders for the election of Directors, or until his successor shall be elected and shall qualify, or until his right to hold such office terminates pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (c). (iii) A Director elected pursuant to the terms hereof may be removed with or without cause by the holders of Series C Preferred Stock entitled to vote in an election of such Director. (iv) If, during any interval between annual meetings of stockholders for the election of Directors and while the holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect two Directors, there is no such Director in office by reason of resignation, death or removal, then, promptly thereafter, the Board of Directors shall cause a special meeting of the holders of Series C Preferred Stock for the purpose of filling such vacancy and such vacancy shall be filled at such special meeting. Such special meeting shall in any event be held within 45 days of the occurrence of such vacancy. (v) At such time as the arrearage is fully cured, and all dividends accumulated and unpaid on any shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding are paid, and, in addition thereto, at least one regular dividend has been paid subsequent to curing such arrearage, the term of office of any Director elected pursuant to this paragraph (c), or his successor, shall automatically terminate, and the authorized number of Directors shall automatically decrease by two, the rights of the holders of the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock to vote as provided in this paragraph (c) shall cease, subject to renewal from time to time upon the same terms and conditions, and the holders of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock shall have only the limited voting rights elsewhere herein set forth. (d) Except as set forth herein, or as otherwise provided by law, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action. 4. CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS. (a) Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series C Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not: (i) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series C Preferred Stock; (ii) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series C Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series C Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled; (iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series C Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series C Preferred Stock; or (iv) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series C Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the Series C Preferred Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes. (b) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (a) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner. 5. REACQUIRED SHARES. Any shares of Series C Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Certificate of Incorporation, or in any other Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law. 6. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. (a) Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, no distribution shall be made (i) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series C Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall have received $100 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment, provided that the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 100 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of shares of Common Stock, or (ii) to the holders of shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series C Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on the Series C Preferred Stock and all such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up. (b) Neither the consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Corporation with or into any other corporation nor the sale, lease, exchange or conveyance of all or any part of the property, assets or business of the Corporation shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation for purposes of this Section 6. (c) In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (i) of paragraph (a) of this Section 6 shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. 7. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 100 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. 8. NO REDEMPTION. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable. 9. RANK. The Series C Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets, junior to all series of any other class of the Preferred Stock issued either before or after the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock, unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise. 10. AMENDMENT. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation shall not be amended in any manner which would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series C Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting as a single class. 11. FRACTIONAL SHARES. Series C Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share which shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder's fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series C Preferred Stock. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Certificate of Designations is executed on behalf of the Corporation by its President and Chief Executive Officer and attested by its Secretary this 7th day of August, 1989.

The Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on July 18, 1983, as amended to date, is hereby further amended by the addition of a new Article TENTH and Article ELEVENTH, which shall read in their entirety as follows: TENTH: This Article is inserted for the management of the business and for the conduct of the affairs of the Corporation.

CLASSES OF DIRECTORS. The Board of Directors shall be and is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. No one class shall have more than one director more than any other class.

SECTION 3. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot except as and to the extent provided in the By-laws of the Corporation. SECTION 4. TERMS OF OFFICE. Each director shall serve for a term ending on the date of the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected; PROVIDED that each initial director in Class I shall serve for a term ending on the date of the annual meeting next following the end of the Corporation's 1990 fiscal year; and each initial director in Class II shall serve for a term ending on the date of the annual meeting next following the end of the Corporation's 1991 fiscal year; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that the term of each director shall be subject to the election and qualification of his/her successor and to his/her earlier death, resignation or removal. SECTION 5. ALLOCATION OF DIRECTORS AMONG CLASSES IN THE EVENT OF INCREASES OR DECREASES IN THE NUMBER OF DIRECTORS. In the event of any increase or decrease in the authorized number of directors, (i) each director then serving as such shall nevertheless continue as a director of the class of which he/she is a member and (ii) the newly created or eliminated directorships resulting from such increase or decrease shall be apportioned by the Board of Directors among the three classes of directors so as to ensure that no one class has more than one director more than any other class. To the extent possible, consistent with the foregoing rule, any newly created directorships shall be added to those classes whose terms of office are to expire at the latest dates following such allocation, and any newly eliminated directorships shall be subtracted from those classes whose terms of office are to expire at the earliest dates following such allocation, unless otherwise provided from time to time by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors. SECTION 6. QUORUM; ACTION AT MEETING. A majority of the directors at any time in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.

If at any meeting of the Board of Directors there shall be less than such a quorum, a majority of those present may adjourn the meeting from time to time.

SECTION 7. REMOVAL. Any director or the entire Board of Directors may be removed, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors; provided that, if and for so long as the Board of Directors is classified pursuant to Section 141(d) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, stockholders may effect such removal only for cause, unless this Certificate of Incorporation otherwise provides. SECTION 8. VACANCIES. Unless and until filled by the stockholders, any vacancy in the Board of Directors, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the Board, may be filled by a vote of a majority of the directors then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director. A director elected to filled a vacancy shall be elected to hold office until the next election of the class for which such director shall have chosen, subject to the election and qualification of his/her successor and to his/her earlier death, resignation or removal. SECTION 9. AMENDMENTS. Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, this Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Corporation, and notwithstanding the fact that a lesser percentage may be specified by law, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the votes which all of the stockholders would be entitled to cast at an annual election of directors or class of directors shall be required to amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Article Tenth. ELEVENTH: Any action which is required to be taken or which may be taken at any annual or specified meeting of stockholders of the Corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of all of the outstanding shares of stock that would be entitled to vote thereon at a meeting of stockholders.
