Registered Office. The registered office of the corporation shall be maintained in the City of New Castle, State of Delaware, and the corporation is the Registered Agent at such address. Section 1.2. Other Offices. The corporation may also have an office or offices at such other places as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine or the business of the corporation may require. ARTICLE II CLASSES OF STOCK; VOTING RIGHTS; STOCKHOLDERS' MEETINGS Section 2.1. Classes of Stock, Voting Subordinated Notes. In accordance with the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the corporation, the corporation has the authority to issue shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, shares of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share, and subordinated notes (the "Notes"), with non-detachable stock purchase warrants (the "Warrants"), the holders of which Notes, to the extent provided for in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the corporation, are entitled to vote on each matter on which stockholders of the corporation generally are entitled to vote. Each reference herein to a "stockholder" or to "stockholders" shall, unless the context shall require otherwise, mean and apply to holders of Common Stock, Preferred Stock and holders of the Notes as long as and to the extent that the Warrants have not been exercised. Section 2.2. Stockholder Votes. (a) Except as otherwise provided by law, each outstanding share of Common Stock, each Note with unexercised Warrants attached and each share of Preferred Stock, if any, having voting rights shall be entitled to vote on each matter on which the stockholders of the corporation are entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote. Each Note shall have the number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which the holder of such Note would obtain upon exercise of the Warrant attached to such Note, and such number of shares of Common Stock shall be included in determining the number of shares voting or entitled to vote on any such matter. Except as otherwise required by law, on all matters on which stockholders of the corporation are entitled to vote, holders of Notes with unexercised Warrants attached shall vote together as a single class with holders of Common Stock, regardless of whether holders of the Notes also have the right to vote separately as a class on any such matter either hereunder or under applicable law. Any such right to a separate class vote shall not be limited in any way by the participation of holders of the Notes in the vote as a single class with holders of Common Stock. Each holder of a Note with unexercised Warrants attached shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders' meeting. (b) So long as any Notes with unexercised Warrants attached shall be outstanding, the Common Stock shall not have the right to vote separately as a class on any matter whatsoever. In the event that the voting rights granted to holders of Notes by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the corporation shall be held impermissible under applicable law or otherwise unenforceable, then whenever a vote of holders of Common Stock shall be taken (i) the corporation shall in advance of such vote solicit the votes of holders of Notes with unexercised Warrants attached as if such voting rights were in effect, and shall communicate the results of such solicitation to holders of Common Stock (ii) holders of Common Stock shall cast their votes in such proportion as will cause the results of such vote to be proportionately the same as would have been the case had the votes of holders of Notes with unexercised Warrants attached been included in the tabulation. (c) Holders of Notes with unexercised Warrants attached shall have the right to vote separately as a class with respect to any merger or consolidation of the corporation into or with another company or any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the corporation, unless pursuant to the terms of such merger, consolidation or sale, the entire principal amount of the Notes, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, shall be paid.

At the adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be present or represented by proxy, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment, a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

Each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of stock having voting power registered in his name on the books of the corporation, except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation. Section 2.9. Proxies.

Section 8.7. Indemnification. (a) Each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he, or a person for whom he is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the laws of Delaware as the same now or may hereafter exist (but, in the case of any change, only to the extent that such change authorizes the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such change) against all costs, charges, expenses, liabilities and losses (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section or otherwise. The corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification to employees and agents of the corporation with the same scope and effect as the foregoing indemnification of directors and officers. (b) If a claim under subsection (a) of this Section is not paid in full by the corporation within thirty days after a written claim has been received by the corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking has been tendered to the corporation) that the claimant has failed to meet a standard of conduct which makes it permissible under Delaware law for the corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is permissible in the circumstances because he has met such standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such standard of conduct, nor the termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall be 14 a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has failed to meet the required standard of conduct. (c) The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Section shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. (d) The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under Delaware law. (e) To the extent that any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation is by reason of such position, or a position with another entity at the request of the corporation, a witness in any proceeding, he shall be indemnified against all costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. (f) Any amendment, repeal or modification of any provision of this Section by the stockholders or the directors of the corporation shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer of the corporation existing at the time of such amendment, repeal or modification. Section 8.8. Amendment of Bylaws. The stockholders, by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock, the Preferred Stock and the Notes issued and outstanding and having voting power may, at any annual or special meeting if notice of such alteration or amendment of the Bylaws is contained in the notice of such meeting, adopt, amend, or repeal these Bylaws; and alterations or amendments of the Bylaws made by the stockholders shall not be altered or amended by the Board of Directors. The provisions of Articles II and III hereof will be deemed made by the stockholders. The Board of Directors, by the affirmative vote of a majority of the whole Board, may adopt, amend, or repeal these Bylaws at any meeting, except as provided in the above paragraph. Bylaws made by the Board of Directors may be altered or repealed by the stockholders. 15
