The restrictions, if any, imposed by the articles or organization upon the transfer of shares of any class or series of stock are:

Other lawful provisions, and if there are no such provisions, this article may be left blank.

Note: The preceding six (6) articles are considered to be permanent and may be changed only by filing appropriate articles of amendment.

The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the Company shall be authorized to issue is 6,025,000,000 shares, consisting of 6,000,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), and 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Series Preferred Stock").

The holders of the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters requiring action by the shareholders or submitted to the shareholders for action, except as may be determined by votes of the directors pursuant to Article 4 hereof or as may otherwise be required by law, and each share of the Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote.

The holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, to the extent permitted by law, such dividends as may from time to time be declared by the directors.

Upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Common Stock shall be entitled to receive the net assets of the Company, after the Company shall have satisfied or made provision for its debts and obligations and for payment to the holders of shares of any class or series having preferential rights to receive distributions of the net assets of the Company.

The directors may determine, in whole or in part, the preferences, voting powers, qualifications and special or relative rights or privileges, if any, of any such series before the issuance of any shares of that series; provided, however, that if and to the extent that shares of any series have voting rights, such rights shall not be in excess of the greater of (i) one vote per share of such series or (ii) if the shares of such series are convertible into shares of Common Stock, such number of votes per share as equals the number of shares of Common Stock into which one share of such series is at the time of such vote convertible. The directors shall determine the number of shares constituting each series of Series Preferred Stock and each series shall have a distinguishing designation.

(a) The corporation may carry on any business, operation or activity referred to in Article 2 to the same extent as might an individual, whether as principal, agent, contractor or otherwise, and either alone or in conjunction or joint venture or other arrangement with any corporation, association, trust, firm or individual.

(b) The corporation may carry on any business, operation or activity through a wholly or partly owned subsidiary.

(d) The directors may make, amend or repeal the bylaws in whole or in part, except with respect to any provision thereof which by law or the bylaws requires action by the shareholders.

(f) No shareholder shall have any right to examine any property or any books, accounts or other writings of the corporation if there is reasonable ground for belief that such examination will for any reason be adverse to the interests of the corporation, and a vote of the directors refusing permission to make such examination and setting forth that in the opinion of the directors such examination would be adverse to the interests of the corporation shall be prima facie evidence that such examination would be adverse to the interests of the corporation. Every such examination shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the directors may establish in regard thereto.

(g) The directors may specify the manner in which the accounts of the corporation shall be kept and may determine what constitutes net earnings, profits and surplus, what amounts, if any, shall be reserved for any corporate purpose, and what amounts, if any, shall be declared as dividends. Unless the board of directors otherwise specifies, the excess of the consideration for any share of its capital stock with par value issued by it over such par value shall be paid-in surplus. The board of directors may allocate to capital stock less than all of the consideration for any share of its capital stock without par value issued by it, in which case the balance of such consideration shall be paid-in surplus. All surplus shall be available for any corporate purpose, including the payment of dividends.

(h) The purchase or other acquisition or retention by the corporation of shares of its own capital stock shall not be deemed a reduction of its capital stock. Upon any reduction of capital or capital stock, no shareholder shall have any right to demand any

distribution from the corporation, except as and to the extent that the shareholders shall have provided at the time of authorizing such reduction.

(i) The directors shall have the power to fix from time to time their compensation. No person shall be disqualified from holding any office by reason of any interest. In the absence of fraud, any director, officer or shareholder of this corporation, individually, or any individual having any interest in any concern which is a shareholder of this corporation, or any concern in which any of such directors, officers, shareholders or individuals has any interest, may be a party to, or may be pecuniarily or otherwise interested in, any contract, transaction or other act of this corporation, and

provided, however, that any contract, transaction or act in which any director or officer of this corporation is so interested individually or as a director, officer, trustee or member of any concern which is not a subsidiary or affiliate of this corporation, or in which any directors or officers are so interested as holders, collectively, of a majority of shares of capital stock or other beneficial interest at the time outstanding in any concern which is not a subsidiary or affiliate of this corporation, shall be duly authorized or ratified by a majority of the directors who are not so interested, to whom the nature of such interest has been disclosed and who have made any findings required by law;

directors of this corporation, or is constituted of the directors or officers of this corporation.

To the extent permitted by law, the authorizing or ratifying vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of each class of the capital stock of this corporation outstanding and entitled to vote for directors at any annual meeting or a special meeting duly called for the purpose (whether such vote is passed before or after judgment rendered in a suit with respect to such contract, transaction or act) shall validate any contract, transaction or act of this corporation, or of the board of directors or any committee thereof, with regard to all shareholders of this corporation, whether or not of record at the time of such vote, and with regard to all creditors and other claimants under this corporation; provided, however, that

No contract, transaction or act shall be avoided by reason of any provision of this paragraph (i) which would be valid but for such provision or provisions.

(j) The corporation shall have all powers granted to corporations by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, provided that no such power shall include any activity inconsistent with the Business Corporation Law or the general laws of said Commonwealth.

(k) No director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the extent provided by applicable law notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability; provided, however, that to the extent, and only to the extent, required by Section 13(b) (1¹/2) or any successor provision of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law, this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. This provision shall not be construed in any way so as to impose or create liability. The foregoing provisions of this Article 6(k) shall not eliminate the liability of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the date on which this Article 6(k) becomes effective. No amendment to or repeal of this Article 6(k) shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.

(l) The bylaws of the corporation may, but are not required to, provide that in a meeting of shareholders other than a Contested Election Meeting (as defined below), a nominee for director shall be elected to the board of directors only if the votes cast "for" such nominee's election exceed the votes cast "against" such nominee's election (with "abstentions," "broker non-votes" and "withheld votes" not counted as a vote "for" or "against" such nominee's election). In a Contested Election Meeting, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at such Contested Election Meeting. A meeting of shareholders shall be a "Contested Election Meeting" if there are more persons nominated for election as directors at such meeting than there are directors to be elected at such meeting, determined as of the tenth day preceding the date of the corporation's first notice to shareholders of such meeting sent pursuant to the corporation's bylaws (the "Determination Date"); provided, however, that if in accordance with the corporation's bylaws, shareholders are entitled to nominate persons for election as director for a period of time that ends after the otherwise applicable Determination Date, the Determination Date shall instead be as of the end of such period.

The effective date of organization of the corporation is the date and time the articles were received for filing if the articles are not rejected within the time prescribed by law. If a later effective date is desired, specify such date, which may not be later than the 90th day after the articles are received for filing:

It is hereby certified that these restated articles of organization consolidate all amendments into a single document. If a new amendment authorizes an exchange, or effects a reclassification or cancellation, of issued shares, provisions for implementing that action are set forth in these restated articles unless contained in the text of the amendment.
