EDISON INTERNATIONAL

AS AMENDED TO AND INCLUDING
MAY 20, 2004

ARTICLE I - PRINCIPAL OFFICE

Section 1. Principal Office.

The principal office of the Corporation is hereby fixed and located at 2244 Walnut Grove Avenue, in the
City of Rosemead, County of Los Angeles, State of California. The Board of Directors is hereby granted full
power and authority to change said principal office from one location to another.

ARTICLE II - SHAREHOLDERS

Section 1. Meeting Locations.

All meetings of shareholders shall be held at the principal office of the corporation or at such other
place or places within or without the State of California as may be designated by the Board of Directors (the
"Board"). In the event such places shall prove inadequate in capacity for any meeting of shareholders, an
adjournment may be taken to and the meeting held at such other place of adequate capacity as may be designated by
the officer of the corporation presiding at such meeting.

Section 2. Annual Meetings.

Annual meetings of shareholders shall be held on the third Thursday of the month of May of each year at
such time as the Chairman of the Board shall designate on said day to elect directors to hold office for the year
next ensuing and until their successors shall be elected, and to consider and act upon such other matters as may
lawfully be presented to such meeting; provided, however, that should said day fall upon a legal holiday, then
any such annual meeting of shareholders shall be held at such designated time and place on the next day
thereafter ensuing which is not a legal holiday.

Page 1

Section 3. Special Meetings.

Special meetings of the shareholders may be called at any time by the Board, the Chairman of the Board,
the President, or upon written request of any three members of the Board, or by the holders of shares entitled to
cast not less than ten percent of the votes at such meeting. Upon request in writing to the Chairman of the
Board, the President, any Vice President or the Secretary by any person (other than the Board) entitled to call a
special meeting of shareholders, the officer forthwith shall cause notice to be given to the shareholders
entitled to vote that a meeting will be held at a time requested by the person or persons calling the meeting,
not less than thirty-five nor more than sixty days after the receipt of the request. If the notice is not given
within twenty days after receipt of the request, the persons entitled to call the meeting may give the notice.

Section 4. Notice of Annual or Special Meeting.

Written notice of each annual or special meeting of shareholders shall be given not less than ten (or if
sent by third-class mail, thirty) nor more than sixty days before the date of the meeting to each shareholder
entitled to vote thereat. Such notice shall state the place, date, and hour of the meeting and (i) in the case
of a special meeting, the general nature of the business to be transacted, and no other business may be
transacted, or (ii) in the case of an annual meeting, those matters which the Board, at the time of the mailing
of the notice, intends to present for action by the shareholders, but, subject to the provisions of applicable
law and these Bylaws, any proper matter may be presented at an annual meeting for such action. The notice of any
special or annual meeting at which directors are to be elected shall include the names of nominees intended at
the time of the notice to be presented by the Board for election. "For any matter to be presented by a
shareholder at an annual meeting, including the nomination of any person (other than a person nominated by or at
the direction of the Board) for election to the Board, written notice must be received by the Secretary of the
corporation from the shareholder not more than one hundred eighty days nor less than one hundred twenty days
prior to the date on which the proxy materials for the prior year's annual meeting were first released to
shareholders by the corporation; provided however, that in the event the annual meeting to which the
shareholder's written notice relates is to be held on a date which is more than thirty days earlier or later than
the date of the annual meeting specified in these Bylaws, the notice from a shareholder must be received by the
Secretary not earlier than two hundred twenty days prior to the date of the annual meeting to which the
shareholder's notice relates nor later than one hundred sixty days prior to the date of such annual meeting,
unless less than one hundred seventy days' prior public disclosure of the date of the meeting is made by the
earliest possible quarterly report on Form 10-Q, or, if impracticable, any means reasonably calculated to inform
shareholders including without limitation a report on Form 8-K, a press release or publication once in a

Page 2

newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the principal office is located, in which event notice by
the shareholder to be timely must be received not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the
date of such public disclosure. The shareholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth (a) a brief description
of each matter to be presented at the annual meeting by the shareholder; (b) the name and address, as they appear
on the corporation's books, of the shareholder; (c) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are
beneficially owned by the shareholder; and (d) any material interest of the shareholder in the matters to be
presented. Any shareholder who intends to nominate a candidate for election as a director shall also set forth in
such a notice (i) the name, age, business address and residence address of each nominee that he or she intends to
nominate at the meeting, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of each nominee, (iii) the class and number
of shares of capital stock of the corporation beneficially owned by each nominee, and (iv) any other information
concerning the nominee that would be required under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission in a
proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of the nominee. The notice shall also include a consent,
signed by the shareholder's nominees, to serve as a director of the corporation if elected. Notwithstanding
anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, and subject to the provisions of any applicable law, no business shall
be conducted at a special or annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.

Notice of a shareholders' meeting shall be given either personally or by first-class mail (or, if the
outstanding shares of the corporation are held of record by 500 or more persons on the record date for the
meeting, by third-class mail) or by other means of written communication, addressed to the shareholder at the
address of such shareholder appearing on the books of the corporation or given by the shareholder to the
corporation for the purpose of notice; or, if no such address appears or is given, at the place where the
principal office of the corporation is located or by publication at least once in a newspaper of general
circulation in the county in which the principal office is located. Notice by mail shall be deemed to have been
given at the time a written notice is deposited in the United States mails, postage prepaid. Any other written
notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time it is personally delivered to the recipient or is delivered
to a common carrier for transmission, or actually transmitted by the person giving the notice by electronic
means, to the recipient.

Section 5. Quorum.

A majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum
at any meeting of shareholders. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting at a duly
held meeting at which a quorum is present (which shares voting affirmatively also constitute at least a majority
of the required quorum) shall be the act of the shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by
classes is required by law or the

Page 3

Articles; provided, however, that the shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is
present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough shareholders to
have less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a majority of the
shares required to constitute a quorum.

Section 6. Adjourned Meeting and Notice Thereof.

Any shareholders' meeting, whether or not a quorum is present, may be adjourned from time to time by the
vote of a majority of the shares, the holders of which are either present in person or represented by proxy
thereat, but in the absence of a quorum (except as provided in Section 5 of this Article) no other business may
be transacted at such meeting.

It shall not be necessary to give any notice of the time and place of the adjourned meeting or of the
business to be transacted thereat, other than by announcement at the meeting at which such adjournment is taken.
At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the
original meeting. However, when any shareholders' meeting is adjourned for more than forty-five days or, if after
adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given
as in the case of an original meeting.

Section 7. Voting.

The shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting or to vote at any such meeting shall be only persons
in whose name shares stand on the stock records of the corporation on the record date determined in accordance
with Section 8 of this Article.

Voting shall in all cases be subject to the provisions of Chapter 7 of the California General
Corporation Law, and to the following provisions:

(a) Subject to clause (g), shares held by an administrator, executor, guardian, conservator or
custodian may be voted by such holder either in person or by proxy, without a transfer of such shares into the
holder's name; and shares standing in the name of a trustee may be voted by the trustee, either in person or by
proxy, but no trustee shall be entitled to vote shares held by such trustee without a transfer of such shares
into the trustee's name.

(b) Shares standing in the name of a receiver may be voted by such receiver; and shares held by or
under the control of a receiver may be voted by such receiver without the transfer thereof into the receiver's
name if authority to do so is contained in the order of the court by which such receiver was appointed.

Page 43

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 705 of the California General Corporation Law and except
where otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, a shareholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled
to vote such shares until the shares have been transferred into the name of the pledgee, and thereafter the
pledgee shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.

(d) Shares standing in the name of a minor may be voted and the corporation may treat all rights
incident thereto as exercisable by the minor, in person or by proxy, whether or not the corporation has notice,
actual or constructive, of the non-age unless a guardian of the minor's property has been appointed and written
notice of such appointment given to the corporation.

(e) Shares standing in the name of another corporation, domestic or foreign, may be voted by such
officer, agent or proxyholder as the bylaws of such other corporation may prescribe or, in the absence of such
provision, as the Board of Directors of such other corporation may determine or, in the absence of such
determination, by the chairman of the board, president or any vice president of such other corporation, or by any
other person authorized to do so by the chairman of the board, president or any vice president of such other
corporation. Shares which are purported to be voted or any proxy purported to be executed in the name of a
corporation (whether or not any title of the person signing is indicated) shall be presumed to be voted or the
proxy executed in accordance with the provisions of this subdivision, unless the contrary is shown.

(f) Shares of the corporation owned by any of its subsidiaries shall not be entitled to vote on any
matter.

(g) Shares of the corporation held by the corporation in a fiduciary capacity, and shares of the
corporation held in a fiduciary capacity by any of its subsidiaries, shall not be entitled to vote on any matter,
except to the extent that the settlor or beneficial owner possesses and exercises a right to vote or to give the
corporation binding instructions as to how to vote such shares.

(h) If shares stand of record in the names of two or more persons, whether fiduciaries, members of
a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in common, husband and wife as community property, tenants by the entirety,
voting trustees, persons entitled to vote under a shareholder voting agreement or otherwise, or if two or more
persons (including proxyholders) have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the
secretary of the corporation is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a copy of the
instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship wherein it is so provided, their acts with
respect to voting shall have the following effect:

(i) If only one votes, such act binds all;

Page 5

(ii) If more than one vote, the act of the majority so voting binds all;

(iii) If more than one vote, but the vote is evenly split on any particular matter, each
faction may vote the securities in question proportionately.

If the instrument so filed or the registration of the shares shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal
interests, a majority or even split for the purpose of this section shall be a majority or even split in interest.

No shareholder of any class of stock of this corporation shall be entitled to cumulate votes at any
election of directors of this corporation.

Elections for directors need not be by ballot; provided, however, that all elections for directors must
be by ballot upon demand made by a shareholder at the meeting and before the voting begins.

In any election of directors, the candidates receiving the highest number of votes of the shares
entitled to be voted for them up to the number of directors to be elected by such shares are elected.

Section 8. Record Date.

The Board may fix, in advance, a record date for the determination of the shareholders entitled to
notice of any meeting or to vote or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, or any
allotment of rights, or to exercise rights in respect of any other lawful action. The record date so fixed shall
be not more than sixty days nor less than ten days prior to the date of the meeting nor more than sixty days
prior to any other action. When a record date is so fixed, only shareholders of record at the close of business
on that date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the meeting or to receive the dividend, distribution, or
allotment of rights, or to exercise the rights, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of shares on the
books of the corporation after the record date, except as otherwise provided by law or these Bylaws.
A determination of shareholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall
apply to any adjournment of the meeting unless the Board fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting. The
Board shall fix a new record date if the meeting is adjourned for more than forty-five days.

If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice
of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall be at the close of business on the business day next preceding
the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next
preceding the day on which the meeting is held. The record date for determining shareholders for any purpose
other than as set forth in this

Page 6

Section 8 or Section 10 of this Article shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board
adopts the resolution relating thereto, or the sixtieth day prior to the date of such other action, whichever is
later.

Section 9. Consent of Absentees.

The transactions of any meeting of shareholders, however called and noticed, and wherever held, are as
valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum is present either in person
or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each of the persons entitled to vote, not present in
person or by proxy, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to the holding of the meeting or an approval of
the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a
part of the minutes of the meeting. Neither the business to be transacted at nor the purpose of any regular or
special meeting of shareholders need be specified in any written waiver of notice, consent to the holding of the
meeting or approval of the minutes thereof, except as provided in Section 601 (f) of the California General
Corporation Law.

Section 10. Action Without Meeting.

Subject to Section 603 of the California General Corporation Law, any action which, under any provision
of the California General Corporation Law, may be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders may be
taken without a meeting and without prior notice if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken,
shall be signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would
be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were
present and voted. Unless a record date for voting purposes be fixed as provided in Section 8 of this Article,
the record date for determining shareholders entitled to give consent pursuant to this Section 10, when no prior
action by the Board has been taken, shall be the day on which the first written consent is given.

Section 11. Proxies.

Every person entitled to vote shares has the right to do so either in person or by one or more persons,
not to exceed three, designated by a proxy authorized by such shareholder or the shareholder's attorney in fact
and filed with the corporation, in accordance with Cal. Corp. Codess.178. Subject to the following sentence, any
proxy duly authorized continues in full force and effect until revoked by the person authorizing it prior to the
vote pursuant thereto by a writing delivered to the corporation stating that the proxy is revoked or by a
subsequent proxy authorized by the person authorizing the prior proxy and presented to the meeting, or by
attendance at the meeting and voting in person by the person authorizing the proxy; provided, however, that a
proxy is not revoked by the death or incapacity of the maker unless, before the vote is

Page 7

counted, written notice of such death or incapacity is received by this corporation. No proxy shall be
valid after the expiration of eleven months from the date of its authorization unless otherwise provided in the
proxy.

Section 12. Inspectors of Election.

In advance of any meeting of shareholders, the Board may appoint any persons other than nominees as
inspectors of election to act at such meeting and any adjournment thereof. If inspectors of election are not so
appointed, or if any persons so appointed fail to appear or refuse to act, the chairman of any such meeting may,
and on the request of any shareholder or shareholder's proxy shall, make such appointments at the meeting. The
number of inspectors shall be either one or three. If appointed at a meeting on the request of one or more
shareholders or proxies, the majority of shares present shall determine whether one or three inspectors are to be
appointed.

The duties of such inspectors shall be as prescribed by Section 707 (b) of the California General
Corporation Law and shall include: determining the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the
shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity and effect of
proxies; receiving votes, ballots or consents; hearing and determining all challenges and questions in any way
arising in connection with the right to vote; counting and tabulating all votes or consents; determining when the
polls shall close; determining the result; and doing such acts as may be proper to conduct the election or vote
with fairness to all shareholders. If there are three inspectors of election, the decision, act or certificate of
a majority is effective in all respects as the decision, act or certificate of all. Any report or certificate
made by the inspectors of election is prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

ARTICLE III - DIRECTORS

Section 1. Powers.

Subject to limitations of the Articles, of these Bylaws and of the California General Corporation Law
relating to action required to be approved by the shareholders or by the outstanding shares, the business and
affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction
of the Board. The Board may delegate the management of the day-to-day operation of the business of the
corporation provided that the business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed and all corporate powers
shall be exercised under the ultimate direction of the Board. Without prejudice to such general powers, but
subject to the same limitations, it is hereby expressly declared that the Board shall have the following powers
in addition to the other powers enumerated in these Bylaws:

(a) To select and remove all the other officers, agents and employees of the corporation, prescribe
the powers and duties for them as may not be inconsistent with law, with the Articles or these Bylaws, fix their
compensation and require from them security for faithful service.

(b) To conduct, manage and control the affairs and business of the corporation and to make such
rules and regulations therefor not inconsistent with law, or with the Articles or these Bylaws, as they may deem
best.

(c) To adopt, make and use a corporate seal, and to prescribe the forms of certificates of stock,
and to alter the form of such seal and of such certificates from time to time as in their judgment they may deem
best.

(d) To authorize the issuance of shares of stock of the corporation from time to time, upon such
terms and for such consideration as may be lawful.

(e) To borrow money and incur indebtedness for the purposes of the corporation, and to cause to be
executed and delivered therefor, in the corporate name, promissory notes, bonds, debentures, deeds of trust,
mortgages, pledges, hypothecations or other evidences of debt and securities therefor.

Section 2. Number of Directors.

The authorized number of directors shall be not less than nine nor more than seventeen until changed by
amendment of the Articles or by a Bylaw duly adopted by the shareholders. The exact number of directors shall be
fixed, within the limits specified, by the Board by adoption of a resolution or by the shareholders in the same
manner provided in these Bylaws for the amendment thereof.

Page 9

Section 3. Election and Term of Office.

The directors shall be elected at each annual meeting of the shareholders, but if any such annual
meeting is not held or the directors are not elected thereat, the directors may be elected at any special meeting
of shareholders held for that purpose. Each director shall hold office until the next annual meeting and until a
successor has been elected and qualified.

Section 4. Vacancies.

Any director may resign effective upon giving written notice to the Chairman of the Board, the
President, the Secretary or the Board, unless the notice specifies a later time for the effectiveness of such
resignation. If the resignation is effective at a future time, a successor may be elected to take office when the
resignation becomes effective.

Vacancies in the Board, except those existing as a result of a removal of a director, may be filled by a
majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and each
director so elected shall hold office until the next annual meeting and until such director's successor has been
elected and qualified. Vacancies existing as a result of a removal of a director may be filled by the
shareholders as provided by law.

A vacancy or vacancies in the Board shall be deemed to exist in case of the death, resignation or
removal of any director, or if the authorized number of directors be increased, or if the shareholders fail, at
any annual or special meeting of shareholders at which any director or directors are elected, to elect the full
authorized number of directors to be voted for at that meeting.

The Board may declare vacant the office of a director who has been declared of unsound mind by an order
of court or convicted of a felony.

The shareholders may elect a director or directors at any time to fill any vacancy or vacancies not
filled by the directors. Any such election by written consent other than to fill a vacancy created by removal
requires the consent of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote. If the Board accepts the
resignation of a director tendered to take effect at a future time, the Board or the shareholders shall have
power to elect a successor to take office when the resignation is to become effective.

No reduction of the authorized number of directors shall have the effect of removing any director prior
to the expiration of the director's term of office.

Page 10

Section 5. Place of Meeting.

Regular or special meetings of the Board shall be held at any place within or without the State of
California which has been designated from time to time by the Board or as provided in these Bylaws. In the
absence of such designation, regular meetings shall be held at the principal office of the corporation.

Section 6. Organization Meeting.

Promptly following each annual meeting of shareholders the Board shall hold a regular meeting for the
purpose of organization, election of officers and the transaction of other business.

Section 7. Special Meetings and Other Regular Meetings.

Special meetings and regular meetings other than organization meetings of the Board for any purpose or
purposes may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, the President, any Vice President, the Secretary
or by any two directors.

Such meetings of the Board shall be held upon four days' notice by mail or forty-eight hours' notice
delivered personally or by telephone, including a voice messaging system or other system or technology designed
to record and communicate messages, telegraph, telex, facsimile, electronic mail or other similar means of
communication. Any such notice shall be addressed or delivered to each director at such director's address,
telephone number, telex number, facsimile number, E-mail address, or other designated location(s), as shown upon
the records of the corporation or as may have been given to the corporation by the director for purposes of
notice or, if such information is not shown on such records or is not readily ascertainable, at the place in
which the meetings of the directors are regularly held. The notice need not specify the purpose of such meeting.

Notice by mail shall be deemed to have been given at the time a written notice is deposited in the
United States mail, postage prepaid. Any other written notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time it
is personally delivered to the recipient or is delivered to a common carrier for transmission, or actually
transmitted by the person giving the notice by electronic means to the recipient. Oral notice shall be deemed to
have been given at the time it is communicated, in person or by telephone, wireless, or other similar means, to
the recipient or to a person at the office of the recipient who the person giving the notice has reason to
believe will promptly communicate it to the recipient, or actually transmitted to the recipient by the person
giving the notice by a system or technology designed to record and communicate messages.

Page 11

Section 8. Quorum.

One-third of the number of authorized directors constitutes a quorum of the Board for the transaction of
business, except to adjourn as provided in Section ll of this Article. Every act or decision done or made by a
majority of the directors present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is present shall be regarded as the
act of the Board, unless a greater number is required by law or by the Articles; provided, however, that a
meeting at which a quorum is initially present may continue to transact business notwithstanding the withdrawal
of directors, if any action taken is approved by at least a majority of the required quorum for such meeting.

Section 9. Participation in Meetings by Conference Telephone.

Members of the Board may participate in a meeting through use of conference telephone or similar
communications equipment, so long as all members participating in such meeting can hear one another. Such
participation constitutes presence in person at such meeting.

Section 10. Waiver of Notice.

The transactions of any meeting of the Board, however called and noticed or wherever held, are as valid
as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice if a quorum is present and if, either before
or after the meeting, each of the directors not present signs a written waiver of notice, a consent to holding
such meeting or an approval of the minutes thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with
the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

Section 11. Adjournment.

Each 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, formal or informal, whether brought in the name of
the corporation or otherwise and whether of a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative nature
(hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she 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, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such
proceeding is an alleged action or inaction in an official capacity or in any other capacity while serving as a
director or officer, shall, subject to the terms of any agreement between the corporation and such person, be
indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent permissible under California law and the
corporation's Articles of Incorporation, 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 or her heirs,
executors and administrators; provided, however, that (A) the corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking
indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such
proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of the corporation; (B) the corporation shall indemnify
any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) other than a proceeding
by or in the name of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor only if any

Page 23

settlement of such a proceeding is approved in writing by the corporation; (C) that no such person shall be
indemnified (i) except to the extent that the aggregate of losses to be indemnified exceeds the amount of such
losses for which the director or officer is paid pursuant to any directors' and officers' liability insurance
policy maintained by the corporation; (ii) on account of any suit in which judgment is rendered against such
person for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by such person of securities of the
corporation pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and amendments
thereto or similar provisions of any federal, state or local statutory law; (iii) if a court of competent
jurisdiction finally determines that any indemnification hereunder is unlawful; and (iv) as to circumstances in
which indemnity is expressly prohibited by Section 317 of the General Corporation Law of California (the "Law");
and (D) that no such person shall be indemnified with regard to any action brought by or in the right of the
corporation for breach of duty to the corporation and its shareholders (a) for acts or omissions involving
intentional misconduct or knowing and culpable violation of law; (b) for acts or omissions that the director or
officer believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or its shareholders or that involve the
absence of good faith on the part of the director or officer; (c) for any transaction from which the director or
officer derived an improper personal benefit; (d) for acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the
director's or officer's duty to the corporation or its shareholders in circumstances in which the director or
officer was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing his or her duties, of a risk
of serious injury to the corporation or its shareholders; (e) for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused
pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director's or officer's duties to the corporation or
its shareholders; and (f) for costs, charges, expenses, liabilities and losses arising under Section 310 or 316
of the Law. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article shall include the right to be paid by the
corporation expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however,
that if the Law permits the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as
a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a
director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final
disposition of a proceeding, such advances shall be made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking,
by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts to the corporation if it shall be ultimately
determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified.

Section 2. Indemnification of Employees and Agents.

A person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any proceeding
by reason of the fact that he or she is or was an employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at
the request of the corporation as an employee or agent of another enterprise, including service with respect to
employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such action is an alleged

Page 24

action or inaction in an official capacity or in any other capacity while serving as an employee or agent, may,
subject to the terms of any agreement between the corporation and such person, be indemnified and held harmless
by the corporation to the fullest extent permitted by California law and the corporation's Articles of

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.

Section 3. Right of Directors and Officers to Bring Suit.

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. Neither the failure of the corporation
(including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) to have made a determination prior to the
commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is permissible in the circumstances because he
or she has met the applicable standard of conduct, if any, nor an actual determination by the corporation
(including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its shareholders) that the claimant has not met the
applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption for the purpose of an
action that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

Section 4. Successful Defense.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, to the extent that a director or officer has been
successful on the merits or otherwise (including the dismissal of an action without prejudice or the settlement
of a proceeding or action without admission of liability) in defense of any proceeding referred to in Section 1

attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.

any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise.

Page 25

Section 6. Insurance.

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 the Law.

Section 7. Expenses as a Witness.

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 action, suit or
proceeding, he or she shall be indemnified against all costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him
or her on his or her behalf in connection therewith.

Section 8. Indemnity Agreements.

The corporation may enter into agreements with any director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation providing for indemnification to the fullest extent permissible under the Law and the corporation's
Articles of Incorporation.

Each and every paragraph, sentence, term and provision of this Article is separate and distinct so that
if any paragraph, sentence, term or provision hereof shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason,
such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other paragraph,
sentence, term or provision hereof. To the extent required, any paragraph, sentence, term or provision of this
Article may be modified by a court of competent jurisdiction to preserve its validity and to provide the claimant
with, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article and any agreement between the corporation and
claimant, the broadest possible indemnification permitted under applicable law.

Section 10. Effect of Repeal or Modification.

director or officer existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any action or omission

remaining director, the emergency committee shall consist of the three most senior officers of the corporation
who are available to serve, and if and to the extent that officers are not available, the most senior employees
of the corporation. Seniority shall be determined in accordance with any designation of seniority in the minutes
of the proceedings of the Board, and in the absence of such designation, shall be determined by rate of
remuneration. In the event that there are no remaining directors and no officers or employees of the corporation
available, the emergency committee shall consist of three persons designated in writing by the shareholder owning
the largest number of shares of record as of the date of the last record date.

Section 7. Powers of Emergency Committee.

The emergency committee, once appointed, shall govern its own procedures and shall have power to
increase the number of members thereof beyond the original number, and in the event of a vacancy or vacancies
therein, arising at any time, the remaining member or members of the emergency committee shall have the power to
fill such vacancy or vacancies. In the event at any time after its appointment all members of the emergency
committee shall die or resign or become unavailable to act for any reason whatsoever, a new emergency committee
shall be appointed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Article.

Section 8. Directors Becoming Available.

Any person who has ceased to be a director pursuant to the provisions of Section 2 and who thereafter
becomes available to serve as a director shall automatically become a member of the emergency committee.

Section 9. Election of Board of Directors.

The emergency committee shall, as soon after its appointment as is practicable, take all requisite
action to secure the election of a board of directors, and upon such election all the powers and authorities of
the emergency committee shall cease.

Section 10. Termination of Emergency Committee.

In the event, after the appointment of an emergency committee, a sufficient number of persons who ceased
to be directors pursuant to Section 2 become available to serve as directors, so that if they had not ceased to
be directors as aforesaid, there would be enough directors to constitute the minimum number of directors required
by law, then all such persons shall automatically be deemed to be reappointed as directors and the powers and
authorities of the emergency committee shall be at an end.
