signed by persons who would be entitled to vote at a meeting those shares having
voting power to cast not less than the minimum number (or numbers, in the case
of voting by classes) of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such
action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote were present and voted.
Notice shall be given within ten (10) days of the taking of corporate action
without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent to those shareholders
on the record date whose shares were not represented on the written consent."

                  FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Articles of Incorporation be
amended by adding a new Article VII, which shall read as follows:

                  "A director of the Corporation shall not be liable to the
Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, to the fullest extent permitted by Georgia Law. Neither the
amendment nor repeal of Article VII or VIII, nor the adoption of any provision
of these Articles of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Corporation, nor, to
the fullest extent permitted by Georgia Law, any modification of law, shall
eliminate or reduce the effect of Article VII or VIII in respect of any acts or
omissions occurring prior to, and shall not adversely affect any right or
protection of a director of the Corporation existing prior to such amendment,
repeal, adoption or modification."

                  FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Articles of Incorporation be
amended by adding a new Article VIII, which shall read as follows:

                  "Each person (and the heirs, executors or administrators of
such person) who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is
involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact
that such person is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director or officer of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted
by Georgia Law. The right to indemnification



conferred in this Article VIII shall also include the right to be paid by the
Corporation the expenses incurred in connection with any such proceeding in
advance of its final disposition to the fullest extent authorized by Georgia
Law. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article VIII shall be a
contract right.

                  The Corporation may, by action of its Board of Directors,
provide indemnification to such of the officers, employees and agents of the
Corporation to such extent and to such effect as the Board of Directors shall
determine to be appropriate and authorized by Georgia Law.

                  The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation
as director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss
incurred by such person in any such capacity or arising out of his status as
such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him
against such liability under Georgia Law.

                  The rights and authority conferred in this Article VIII shall
not be exclusive of any other right which any person may otherwise have or
hereafter acquire.

                  SECOND, with the addition of new Articles VI, VII and VIII to
the Articles of Incorporation, the Articles of Incorporation as they existed
prior to these Articles of Amendment are redesignated as Articles I through
VIII.

                  THIRD, these amendments were duly approved by the Shareholders
of the Corporation, upon the recommendation of the board of directors of the
Corporation, as required under (a) the Articles of Incorporation as they existed
prior to these Articles of Amendment, (b) the bylaws of the Corporation, and (c)
