         Each holder of the Registrant's common stock is
entitled to one vote for every share of the Registrant's common
stock standing in such holder's name on the books of the
Registrant.  Voting rights are noncumulative, which means that
the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the
election of directors can elect 100% of the directors if they
choose to do so, and in such event the holders of the remaining
shares voting for the election of directors will not be able to
elect any persons to the Board of Directors.

         Subject to any limitations contained in the
Registrant's debt instruments and after the payment of dividends
on any series of Preferred Stock which might be issued and which
has a preference with respect to the payment of dividends,
holders of the Registrant's common stock are entitled to receive
such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors.

         The Registrant's common stock has no conversion rights,
is not redeemable and has no preemptive right to subscribe for
any stock or other securities of the Registrant that may be
issued.

         In the event of dissolution, liquidation or winding up
of the Registrant, or upon any distribution of its assets, the
holders of the Registrant's common stock are entitled to receive
pro rata all of the assets available for distribution to
shareholders, subject to any preferential right which may be
accorded the holders of any series of Preferred Stock which
might hereafter be issued.

         On March 27, 1995, there were 7,581,224 shares of the
