then elected shall replace the provisional directors names in
the Letters Patent of the Corporation.

	11.     Directors shall be elected for a term of one year by
the members at an annual meeting of members.

	12.     The office of director shall be automatically vacated:

other than by mail, to each director.  Notice by mail shall be sent at
least fourteen (14) days prior to the meeting.  There shall be at least
one (1) meeting per year of the board of directors.  No error or
omission in the giving of notice of any meeting of the board of
directors or any adjourned meeting of the board of directors of the
Corporation shall invalidate such meeting or make void any proceeding
taken thereat and any director may at any time waive notice of any such
meeting and may ratify, approve and confirm any or all proceedings
taken or had thereat.  Each director shall have one (1) vote.

No notice is required to be given for the first meeting of directors to

meeting of the members of the Corporation in order for the meeting to
be duly constituted, provided that a quorum of directors is present.

Attendance of a director at a meeting of directors is a waiver of
notice of the meeting, except where a director attends a meeting for
the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on
the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called.

If all the directors of the Corporation consent thereto generally or in
respect of a particular meeting, a director may participate in a
meeting of the board or of a committee of the board by means of such
conference telephone or other communications facilities as permit all
persons participating in the meeting to hear each other, and any
director participating in such a meeting by such means is deemed to be
present at the meeting.

A resolution in writing, signed by all of the directors entitled to
vote on that resolution at a meeting of directors or committee of
directors, is as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of
directors or committee of directors.

	14.     The directors shall serve as such without remuneration
and no director shall directly or indirectly receive any profit
from his position as such; provided that a director may be reimbursed
reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in the performance of his or
her duties.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed to preclude
any director from serving the Corporation as an officer or in any other
capacity and receiving compensation therefor.

	15.     A retiring director shall remain in office until the
dissolution or adjournment of the meeting at which his or her
retirement is accepted and his or her successor is elected.

duties as shall be prescribed by the board of directors at the time of
such appointment.

	17.     Reasonable remuneration for all officers, agents,
employees and committee members may be fixed by the board of
directors by resolution.  Such resolution shall have force and effect
only until the next meeting of members when such resolution shall be
confirmed by resolution of the members and, in the absence of such
confirmation by the members, the remuneration to such officers, agents,
employees or committee members shall cease to be payable from the date
of such meeting of members.
