Corporation as they are issued. Each certificate shall bear a serial number,
shall exhibit the holder's name and the number of shares evidenced thereby, and
shall be signed by the Chairman of the Board or a Vice Chairman, if any, or the
Chief Executive Officer or the President or any Vice President and the Secretary

transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.
SECTION 6.02 TRANSFERS. Transfers of stock of the Corporation shall
be made on the books of the Corporation only upon surrender to the Corporation
