	PROXY STATEMENT

General

  This Proxy Statement is furnished to our shareholders in
connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors to
be voted at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on January
8, 2002, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof.  The cost of this
solicitation will be borne by us, Butler National Corporation (the
"Company").  In addition to solicitation by mail, our officers, directors
and employees may solicit proxies by telephone, telegraph, or in
person.  We may also request banks and brokers to solicit their
customers who have a beneficial interest in the our Common Stock
registered in the names of nominees and will reimburse such banks and
brokers for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

  Any proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted by written
notice to the Secretary, by receipt of a proxy properly signed and dated
subsequent to an earlier proxy, or by revocation of a written proxy by
request in person at the Annual Meeting; but if not so revoked, the
shares represented by such proxy will be voted.  The mailing of this
proxy statement to our shareholders commenced on or about November
20, 2001.  Our corporate offices are located at 19920 W. 161st Street,
Olathe, Kansas 66062 and our telephone number is (913) 780-9595.

  We have outstanding only one class of Common Stock, par value
$0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of which 37,283,031 shares were
issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.  Each
share is entitled to one vote.  Shareholders may not cumulate votes in
the election of directors.  Only shareholders of record at the close of
business on November 15, 2001, will be entitled to vote at the meeting.
The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of 35% of the shares
of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business.  The
shares represented by the enclosed proxy will be voted if the proxy is
properly signed and received prior to the meeting.

Voting

  Our Charter Documents require that 35% of the votes of the shares
  of Common Stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual
Meeting be present in person or represented by Proxy at the Annual
Meeting in order to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.
Provided a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of (a) a plurality of
the votes cast by the holders of our Common Stock present in person or
represented by Proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the
subject matter is required for the election of directors and (b) the
holders of a majority of the voting power of all shares is required for
the approval of the Reincorporation described herein.  Votes that are
cast against the proposals are counted both for purposes of determining
the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business and
for purposes of determining the total number of votes cast on a given
proposal.  Abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining both
the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business and
the total number of votes cast on a given proposal, and therefore will
have the same effect as a vote against a given proposal.  Broker non-
votes (i.e., a proxy card returned by a holder on behalf of its beneficial
owner that is not voted on a particular matter because voting
instructions have not been received and the broker has no discretionary
authority to vote) will be counted as present or represented for purposes
of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction
of business but will not be counted for purposes of determining the
number of votes cast with respect to a particular proposal for which
authorization to vote was withheld.  Accordingly, broker non-votes will
not be considered as votes cast and thus will not affect the outcome of
voting on a proposal.

Stockholder Proposals

  The proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission permit
shareholders of a company, after timely notice to the company, to
present proposals for shareholder action in the company's proxy
statements where such proposals are consistent with applicable law,
pertain to matters appropriate for shareholder action and are not
properly omitted by company action in accordance with the proxy rules.
The Butler National Corporation 2002 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
is expected to be held on or about October 8, 2002, and proxy materials
in connection with that meeting are expected to be mailed on or about
September 1, 2002.  Shareholder proposals prepared in accordance
with the proxy rules must be received by the Company on or before
June 5, 2002.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

    On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee reviews the
salaries and performance adjustments of the executive officers and
oversees the administration of our compensation program.

    In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules
designed to enhance disclosure of companies' policies toward executive
compensation, the following report is submitted by the below listed
committee members in their capacity as the Board's Compensation
Committee.  The report addresses our Company's compensation policy
as it related to the executive officers for fiscal 2001.

    General Compensation Policy.  The Compensation Committee
of the Board of Directors was, and continues to be, guided by a belief
that executive compensation should reflect our performance (as
evidenced by revenue, operating ratio (operating expenses divided by
operating revenue), operating income and earnings per share), while at
the same time considering surrounding competitive pressures, retention
of key executive officers and individual performance as evidenced by
informal evaluations.  The Compensation Committee has not yet
adopted a policy with respect to the $1,000,000 limitation on
deductibility of executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

    2001 Compensation.  To accomplish our compensation policy,
the executive compensation package integrates (i) annual base salary,
(ii) current year performance adjustments to such salary, and (iii) stock
option grants under our 1989, 1993 and 1995 Plans.  The
overall compensation policy, as implemented, endeavors to enhance our
profitability (and, thus, shareholder value) by tying the financial
interests of the management with our financial interests.

    Base Salary.  The Compensation Committee, upon the
recommendation of the CEO, initially determines the amount of
executive officer base salary based on factors such as prior level of pay,
quality of experience, responsibilities of position and salary levels of
similarly positioned executives in other companies.

    For all officers, raises are determined subjectively by
recommendation of the CEO and which are approved by the
Compensation Committee.  Such raises are based upon informal
evaluation by the CEO and, to a lesser extent, other executive officers.

    Performance Adjustments.  Once base salary has been
determined, the Compensation Committee divides the executive officers
into two groups:  Operating Officers and Administrative Officers.  The
Operating Officers consist of Mr. Stewart (CEO), Mr. Franke (Vice
President-Aircraft Modifications), Mr. Wagoner (Vice President-
Avionics), and Mr. Fischrupp, (President-BNSI).  For Mr.
Fischrupp we have in place a Performance Plan which couples the
executive's cash compensation with specific improvements in our
operating income.  Each Performance Plan is specific to the Operating
Officer's segment.  Generally, the incentive bonus is five percent (5%)
of the business segment net income before income taxes from the
business segment currently under the control of the officer.  Business
segment net income is defined to include all ordinary and necessary
business expenses associated with the operations and financing of the
business segment but does not include an allocation of corporate
overhead.

    In 2001, Mr. Fischrupp and Mr. Franke received performance
adjustments.

    Administrative Officers do not participate in the Performance
Plan and, thus, do not receive a performance incentive bonus.

    Stock Option Awards.  The Compensation Committee may
also award stock options to executive officers under the 1989, 1993 and
1995 Plans.  In general, the Committee believes that stock options are
an effective incentive for executive to create value for shareholders
since the value of an option bears a direct relationship to appreciation in
our stock price.  Obviously, when shareholder value decreases, the
stock options granted to executives either decrease in value or have no
value.

    In 2001, the Compensation Committee granted 2,835,000 options to
executive officers.

    President and CEO Compensation.  Clark D. Stewart, our
President and CEO, has an employment agreement with our Company
through August 31, 2006.  The Compensation Committee granted to Mr.
Stewart 250,000 options subjectively based upon his performance.

    Summary.  The Compensation Committee believes that our
executive officers are dedicated to achieving significant improvements
in long-term financial performance and that the compensation policies
and programs contribute to achieving this senior management focus.
The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation levels
during 2001 adequately reflect our compensation goals and
policies.

STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

  Our largest business segment is Aircraft Modifications.  Therefore,
in order to provide a representative companion of our stock
performance, the following chart compares the cumulative stockholder
return on our Common Stock for the last five years with the cumulative
return on the OTCBB Stock Market The following chart assumes $100
invested May 1, 2000, in the above group.  The total return assumes the
reinvestment of dividends.

AUDIT FEES

We retained Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. to perform the review of our
annual financial statements for the past fiscal year.  The aggregate
fees billed by Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. for professional services rendered
for the audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal year
ended April 30, 2001, and the reviews of the financial statements
included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for that fiscal year
were $45,923.

Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees

We did not receive any services from our auditors relating to financial
information systems design and implementation during the fiscal year ended
April 30, 2001.

All Other Fees

The aggregate fees billed by Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. for professional
fees rendered during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001 other than as
stated above under the captions Audit Fees, were $11,112.  These fees
were in connection with Tax preparation work for the Company.  The audit
committee of the board of directors, has considered and determined that
the services covered for those fees are compatible with maintaining the
principal accountant's independence.


INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
(Proposal No. 2)

  We have engaged Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. to audit our financial
statements for the year ended April 30, 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002.
Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. was able to express an opinion on the
financial statements for the year ended April 30, 1999, 2000, and 2001.
Representatives of Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. are expected to be present
at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and they will have an
opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be
available to respond to appropriate questions.

  We selected Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. to be the independent public
accountants for fiscal year 2002 which ends April 31, 2002, and
recommend that the appointment of the auditors be ratified by the
Shareholders.  Although Shareholder approval is not required, it is the
policy of our Board of Directors to request, whenever possible,
Shareholder ratification of the appointment or reappointment of
independent public accountants.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote "FOR" the shareholder
ratification of Weaver & Martin, L.L.C. as our independent public
accountant.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE COMPANY'S CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO
INCREASE AUTHORIZED COMMON  AND PREFERRED STOCK
 (Proposal No. 3)

  Our Board of Directors has recommended, subject to the approval
of our stockholders, that the number of authorized shares of our
Common Stock and our Preferred Stock be increased.   If this
proposal is approved, the number of authorized shares will be
increased from 40,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares of our $0.01
par value Common Stock, and from 200,000 to 50,000,000 shares
of our $5.00 par value preferred stock.  The change is reflected
in the Articles of Incorporation that are attached as Exhibit A.
If this proposal is approved by the stockholders, the additional
shares of authorized Common Stock will become part of the existing
class of Common Stock, and the additional shares, when issued,
will have the same rights and privileges as the shares of Common
Stock now issued.  There are no preemptive rights relating to the
stock.

The following discussion summarizes certain aspects of the increase
in the number of authorized shares.  We have no plan to issue the
shares, or use the shares for any merger.



Possible Advantages of Increasing the Number of Authorized Shares

  The increase in the number of authorized shares makes available
shares for possible future business opportunities, including
acquisitions. The shares are a resource that could be used to
assist us to acquire assets or develop our business.  We would
like to have the shares available for issuance should the appropriate
business opportunity arise.

  The Certificate of Incorporation of our Company presently authorizes
the issuance of up to 40,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 200,000
shares of Preferred Stock.  Although our Company has no present plan,
agreements or understandings regarding the issuance of the proposed
additional shares of stock, the Board believes that the increase in
the number of authorized shares of stock is advisable because it will
provide our Company with greater flexibility in connection with possible
future transactions, stock splits or stock dividends, other corporate
purposes, and other programs to facilitate expansion and growth of our
Company.

Possible Disadvantages of Increasing the Number of Authorized Shares

  The increase in the authorized stock will not have any immediate effect
on the rights of existing stockholders.  However, the Board will have the
authority to issue the newly-authorized stock without requiring future
stockholder approval of such issuances, except as may be required by
applicable law.  To the extent that the additional authorized shares are
issued in the future, they will decrease existing stockholders' percentage
equity ownership and, depending upon the price at which they are issued,
could be dilutive to existing stockholders.

The increase in the authorized number of shares of stock and the subsequent
issuance of such shares could also have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control of our Company without further action
by the stockholders.  Shares of authorized and unissued stock could
(within the limits imposed by applicable law) be issued in one or more
transactions which would make a change in control of our Company more
difficult, and therefore less likely.  Any such issuance of additional
stock could have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book
value per share of outstanding shares of stock, and such additional shares
could be used to dilute the stock ownership or voting rights of a person
seeking to obtain control of our Company.

If this proposal is approved by the stockholders, the additional shares
of authorized stock will become effective upon the filing of the Certificate
of Merger which the Company intends to file as promptly as practicable after
the Annual Meeting.  The Board may abandon or delay the change in the
authorized number of shares at any time before or after the Annual Meeting
and prior to the effective date of the filing with the Secretary of State
if for any reason the Board deems it advisable to do so.

The Board believes that is in the best interests of the Company to have
authorized and available 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 50,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock in order to have sufficient authorized but unissued
and unreserved shares to provide the necessary flexibility and alternatives
to allow management of the Company to meet the needs described above.


THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED AND, FOR THE
REASONS DESCRIBED ABOVE "UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE
SHAREHOLDERS APPROVE AND ADOPT THE CHANGE INCREASING THE
SHARES OF AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK AND PREFERRED STOCK.

CHANGE OF DOMICILE
(Proposal No. 4)

  Our Board of Directors has recommended, subject to the approval
of our stockholders and subject to the right of the Board of Directors to
determine not to proceed in certain circumstances, that we change our
corporate domicile (i.e. state of incorporation) from the State of
Delaware to the State of Kansas (the "Reincorporation") pursuant to the
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") between our
Company and Butler National Corporation Kansas, a Kansas corporation
("Butler-Kansas").  The sole purpose of the merger transaction is to
change our domicile from Delaware to Kansas.  The following discussion
summarizes certain aspects of the Reincorporation and the Merger
Agreement.  This summary is not intended to be complete and is subject
to, and qualified in its entirety by, reference to the "COMPARISON OF
DELAWARE AND KANSAS CORPORATE LAW" attached as Appendix A to this
Proxy Statement, the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is attached to
this Proxy Statement as Exhibit A, the Amended and Restated Articles
of Incorporation of Butler-Kansas (the "Kansas Articles"), a copy of
which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit B, and the Bylaws
of Butler-Kansas (the "Kansas Bylaws"), a copy of which is attached to
this Proxy Statement as Exhibit C.  Copies of our Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws (the "Delaware Certificate" and the
"Delaware Bylaws," respectively) are available for inspection at our
principal executive office and copies will be sent to shareholders,
without charge, upon oral or written request directed to: William A.
Griffith, Secretary, Butler National Corporation, 19920 W. 161st
Street, Olathe, Kansas 66062, Telephone Number:  (913) 780-9595.
In this discussion of the Reincorporation, the terms "Company" or
"Butler-Delaware" refer to our existing Delaware corporation and the
term "Butler-Kansas" refers to the new Kansas corporation which is
the proposed successor to Butler-Delaware.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED AND, FOR THE REASONS
DESCRIBED BELOW UNDER "PRINCIPAL REASONS FOR THE REINCORPORATION,"
UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS APPROVE AND ADOPT THE
MERGER AGREEMENT AND THE REINCORPORATION PROPOSAL.

Principal Reasons for the Reincorporation

  For many years the State of Delaware has followed a policy of
encouraging incorporation in that state and, in furtherance of that
policy, has adopted comprehensive, modern and flexible corporate laws
which are periodically updated and revised to meet changing business
needs.  As a result, many corporations have been incorporated in
Delaware.  We are one of such companies that elected to change domicile
to Delaware.  While having favorable corporate policies, there are
considerable fees and expenses associated with maintaining a corporate
domicile in Delaware.

  The corporation laws of the State of Kansas generally track the
Delaware laws.  The source of most of the Kansas corporation statutes is
Delaware law.  The fees and expenses associated with domicile of a
corporation in Kansas are generally less than the fees required for a
corporation in Delaware.  The fees charged to Butler National Corporation
for the year ended December 31, 2000 by the State of Delaware for
franchise and filing fees was $150,020.00.  The franchise fee that
we expect to be charged by the State of Kansas upon reincorporation
is $2,500.00.  The State of Kansas does not have an annual filing fee
separate from the franchise fee.  As one of the anticipated results of the
proposed Reincorporation, we may be able to save money by having our
corporate domicile relocated to Kansas.  See "COMPARISON OF DELAWARE
AND KANSAS CORPORATE LAW" attached as  Appendix A to this Proxy
Statement.

  Additionally, we have no business operations in Delaware, and
consequently, do not retain counsel licensed to practice law in
Delaware.  Thus, we have been and will be (absent the Reincorporation)
required to incur additional expenses to retain Delaware counsel in
most transactions involving Delaware,and to advise us when issues of
Delaware Law arise.

Possible Disadvantages of Reincorporation

  Shareholders should be aware, that the courts applying the Kansas
Corporation Statutes have not developed a history of rulings and
guidance that may be found with Delaware law.   Additionally, as a result
of the proposed Reincorporation, the rights of shareholders and the
authorized stock will change in some respects.   For information
regarding those and other material differences between Delaware Law
and Kansas Law, see Appendix A attached to this Proxy Statement.
Our Board of Directors believes that the advantage of the
Reincorporation to Butler National Corporation and our shareholders
outweigh its possible disadvantages.

  SHAREHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE SUMMARY OF CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT
DIFFERENCES IN THE PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE AND KANSAS LAWS AFFECTING
THE RIGHTS AND INTERESTS OF SHAREHOLDERS SET FORTH IN APPENDIX A ATTACHED
TO THIS PROXY STATEMENT

Principal Features of the Reincorporation

  The Reincorporation will be affected by the merger (the "Merger")
of Butler-Delaware with and into Butler-Kansas, which is
incorporated under Kansas Law as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Butler-Delaware for purposes of the Merger.  Butler-Kansas will be the
surviving corporation in the Merger and will continue under the name
"Butler National Corporation".  Butler-Delaware will cease to exist as
result of the Merger.

  The Merger will not become effective until approval of the
Reincorporation Proposal by the holders of a majority of our
outstanding shares of Common Stock is obtained, and the Merger
Agreement or an appropriate Certificate of Merger is filed with the
Secretary of State of the State of Kansas and Certificate of Merger with
the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

  At the effective time of the Merger, we will be governed by the
Kansas Articles, the Kansas Bylaws, and Kansas Law.  A summary of
the differences between the Kansas Articles and Bylaws and the
Delaware Certificate and Bylaws is described below.

  Upon completion of the Merger, each outstanding share of
Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Butler-Delaware will be
converted into one share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, of
Butler-Kansas.  As a result, the existing shareholders of Butler-
Delaware will automatically become shareholders of Butler-Kansas,
Butler-Delaware will cease to exist and Butler-Kansas will continue to
operate our business under the name "Butler National Corporation."
Butler-Delaware stock certificates will be deemed to represent the same
number of Butler-Kansas shares as were represented by such Butler-
Delaware stock certificates prior to the Reincorporation.  IT WILL
NOT BE NECESSARY FOR SHAREHOLDERS TO EXCHANGE THEIR BUTLER-Delaware
STOCK CERTIFICATES FOR BUTLER-Kansas STOCK CERTIFICATES.  Following the
Reincorporation, previously outstanding Butler-Delaware stock will
constitute "good delivery" in connection with sales through a broker, or
otherwise, of shares of Butler-Kansas.  The Butler-Kansas Common
Stock is expected to be listed on the OTCBB Market as the Common
Stock of Butler-Delaware is presently listed.  Upon completion of the
Reincorporation, the authorized capital stock of Butler-Kansas will
consist of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value
and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock $5.00 par value, which is
an increase in the authorized capital stock compared to Butler-
Delaware.

  The Reincorporation will not result in any change to our daily
business operations or the present location of our principal executive
offices in Olathe, Kansas.  The consolidated financial condition and
results of operations of Butler-Kansas immediately after the
consummation of the Reincorporation will be identical to that of Butler-
Delaware immediately prior to the consummation of the Reincorporation.
Additionally, at the effective time of the Merger, the Board of Directors
of Butler-Kansas will consist of those persons who currently are our
directors, all of whom are nominees for re-election at our Annual Meeting.
In addition, the individuals serving as executive officers of Butler-
Delaware immediately prior to the Merger will serve as executive
officers of Butler-Kansas upon the effectiveness of the Merger.

  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each option or right to
purchase a share of Butler-Delaware Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will become an
option or right to purchase a share of Butler-Kansas Common Stock
upon the same terms and conditions as existed immediately prior to the
effective time of the Merger.  Future options and rights, if any, granted
under the 1989 Nonqualified Option Plan, the 1993 Nonqualified
Option Plan I, the 1993 Nonqualified Option Plan II and the 1995
Nonqualified Option Plan (collectively the "Plans") or otherwise
will be for shares of Butler-Kansas Common Stock. Butler-Kansas
has adopted and will assume the obligations and benefits of Butler-
Delaware under the Rights Agreement ("Rights Agreement"),
dated as of October 26, 1998 between Butler National Corporation
and Wells Fargo Shareowner Services, as Rights Agent.

  A vote for approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and
Reincorporation Proposal will also constitute specific approval of the
Kansas Articles and the Kansas Bylaws.  In addition, a vote for
approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and Reincorporation
Proposal will constitute approval of the assumption by Butler-Kansas of
the Plans and agreements of Butler-Delaware, and the substitution of
shares of Butler-Kansas Common Stock for shares of Butler-Delaware
Common Stock as the security to be received upon exercise of options,
if any, granted in the future under the Plans.

  Confirmation and adoption of the Merger Agreement and the
Reincorporation Proposal will affect certain rights of shareholders.
Accordingly, shareholders are urged to read carefully this entire
Proxy Statement, the Appendices and the Exhibits to the Proxy
Statement before voting.

Rights of Appraisal

 The holders of our Common Stock have the right to dissent from the
Reincorporation and receive from us payment in cash the value of the
shares.  In general, to exercise dissenters' rights under Delaware Law, a
dissenting shareholder must file with our Secretary before the vote on
the proposed action a written notice of intent to demand the fair value
of the shares owned by the shareholder and must not vote the shares in
favor of the proposed action.  The failure by a holder to vote against the
Reincorporation will not constitute a waiver of the holder's appraisal
rights.  A vote against the Reincorporation by a holder of Common
Stock will not satisfy the required notice requirement under Delaware
Law.  After the proposed action has been approved by the shareholders
we must send a notice to all shareholders who have properly filed
notices of objection and not voted in favor of the Reincorporation that
the action has been approved and providing them a copy of the
Delaware Law regarding exercise of dissenter's rights.  A dissenting
shareholder desiring to exercise appraisal rights must then demand
payment and deposit certificated shares or comply with any restrictions
on transfer of uncertificated shares within 30 days after receipt from us
of the notice that the proposed action has been approved by the required
vote of the shareholders.  After the corporate action takes effect, we
must remit to each dissenting shareholder who has complied with the
requirements of law, the amount that we estimate to be the fair value of
the shares.  If a dissenter believes that the amount remitted is less than
the fair value of the shares plus interest, the dissenter shall give written
notice to our Secretary of the dissenters' own estimate of the fair value
of the shares plus interest within 30 days after we mail the remittance.

  The foregoing is merely a summary of the procedures for a
shareholder to exercise dissenters' rights, which summary is qualified in
its entirety by reference to the provisions of Delaware Law setting forth
the procedures for a holder of our Common Stock to exercise appraisal
rights which is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix B.  If the
Reincorporation is not consummated then no shareholder will be
entitled to dissenters' rights.

Amendment, Deferral or Termination of the Merger Agreement

  If approved by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting, it is
anticipated that the Reincorporation will become effective at the earliest
practicable date.  However, the Merger Agreement provides that the
Merger Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented before
or after approval by our shareholders; but no such amendment,
modification or supplement may be made if it would have a material
adverse effect upon the rights of our shareholders unless it has been
approved by the shareholders.  The Merger Agreement also provides
that we may terminate and abandon the Merger or defer its
consummation for a reasonable period, notwithstanding shareholder
approval, if in the opinion of the Board of Directors or, in the case of
deferral, of an authorized officer, such action would be in our best
interests and our shareholders best interests.  The Merger Agreement
provides that the consummation of the Merger is subject to certain
conditions, including the absence of  pending or threatened litigation
regarding the Reincorporation.  In addition, our Board of Directors has
indicated that it will likely terminate the Reincorporation if we have
received notices of exercise of appraisal rights, with respect to, in
excess of 1% of the shares of the Common Stock of our outstanding.

Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reincorporation

  For federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss will be recognized
by the holders of Common Stock or options to purchase Common Stock as a
result of the consummation of the Reincorporation and no gain or loss
will be recognized by Butler-Delaware or Butler-Kansas.  Each holder of
Common Stock will have the same basis in the Butler-Kansas Common
Stock received pursuant to the Reincorporation as he had in the
Common Stock held immediately prior to the Reincorporation, and his
holding period with respect to the Butler-Kansas Common Stock will
include the period during which he held the corresponding Common
Stock, so long as the Common Stock was held as a capital asset at the
time of consummation of the Reincorporation.

  ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT ANTICIPATED THAT STATE OR LOCAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO SHAREHOLDERS WILL VARY FROM THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX
CONSEQUENCES DESCRIBED ABOVE, SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX
ADVISORS AS TO THE EFFECT OF THE REINCORPORATION UNDER STATE, LOCAL
OR FOREIGN INCOME TAX LAWS.

  Butler-Delaware will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax
purposes as a result of the Merger, and that Butler-Kansas will succeed
without adjustment to the tax attributes of Butler-Delaware.  Butler-
Delaware is currently subject to state income taxation in Delaware.  If
the Reincorporation is approved, Butler-Kansas will be obligated to pay
an annual franchise tax in Kansas and no longer be taxed in Delaware,
which we believe to be beneficial.

Articles of Incorporation

  The Kansas Articles provide for an increase in the number of
authorized shares to 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and
50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. The par value of the Butler-
Kansas common stock is $0.01 and preferred stock is $5.00.

Vote Required and Board of Directors' Recommendation

  The Merger Agreement and the Reincorporation Proposal have
been approved by the Board of Directors of Butler-Delaware.  In order
to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and the Reincorporation
Proposal, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock is required.

  The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that the
shareholders vote "FOR" the approval and adoption of the Merger
Agreement and the Reincorporation Proposal.

OTHER MATTERS

  Management knows of no other matters that will be presented at
the meeting.  If any other matter arises at the meeting, it is intended that
the shares represented by the proxies in the accompanying form will be
voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the
proxy.

  Our Annual Report for the fiscal year 2001 is enclosed.  The 2001
Annual Report includes the Annual Report on Form 10-K containing our
financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2001.

  A copy of Form 10-K and the Annual Report as we have filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, will be
furnished without charge to any shareholder who requests it in
writing to us at the address noted on the first page of
this Statement.

APPENDIX A

COMPARISON OF DELAWARE AND KANSAS CORPORATE LAW


PURPOSES AND EFFECTS OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF BUTLER NATIONAL-KANSAS
ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, BY-LAWS AND KANSAS STATUTORY LAW

General

  In a change of our domicile from Delaware to Kansas, the resulting
Kansas corporation will have different provisions for the Kansas
Articles and Bylaws compared to the Delaware Certificate and Bylaws.
A description of certain material differences between the Kansas
Articles and Kansas Bylaws is provided in the following sections.

Articles of Incorporation

Authorized Shares

  Kansas Articles generally track the provisions of the Delaware
Certificate of Incorporation.   In addition to the changes in referencing
the Kansas Code instead of the Delaware Code, there is an increase in
the number of authorized shares of common and preferred stock.
The number of authorized shares is increased in the Kansas Articles
to 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 50,000,000 of Preferred
Stock.

  The foregoing description of changes in the provisions of the Amended
and Restated Articles of Incorporation does not purport to be complete
and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, including definitions of
certain terms in the document.  A copy of the Kansas Articles are attached
as Exhibit B.

Kansas Bylaws

  The Kansas Bylaws generally track the Delaware Bylaws.  The
substantive differences between the bylaws is the reference to
Kansas statutes in the Kansas Bylaws and Delaware statutes in the
Delaware Bylaws.

  Forms of the Kansas Articles and Bylaws are attached as Exhibits
B and C.

  The foregoing description of certain provisions of the Kansas
Articles and the Bylaws does not purport to be complete and is
subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the
Kansas Articles and the Bylaws, including definitions of certain
terms in each respective document.

Statutory Differences between the Kansas and Delaware Corporation Codes

  Delaware Corporate Code and Kansas Corporate Code are similar
in many respects, however, the exact wording of each states
corresponding code is not identical.   Therefore, it is not practical to
summarize all of the differences between Kansas and Delaware Law.
The following, however, is a summary of certain significant differences
in such laws which may affect the rights and interests of the our
shareholders as a result of the Reincorporation.

Corporate Powers

  Kansas Statutes Annotated "K.S.A." Section 17-6102 generally
tracks the language of Section 122 of the Delaware Code.  However,
Section 122(17) expressly gives a corporation the power to renounce
any interest or expectancy of the corporation in, or being offered an
opportunity to participate in, specified business opportunities or
specified classes or categories of business opportunities that are
presented to the corporation or one or more of its officers, directors or
stockholders.  There is no analogous provision in K.S.A. 17-6102, but
the Kansas Code does not prohibit such action.

Committees of the Board of Directors

  Delaware Code Section 141 differs from K.S.A. 17-6301 in that
the Delaware Code limits the powers of committees of the Board of
Directors if the company was incorporated after July 1, 1996, or the
Board of Directors by resolution adopts the limiting provision.
Presently, the Kansas Code Section, 17-6301, tracks the Delaware
provision for incorporations prior to July 1, 1996 that have not adopted
the limitations on committees.  The Kansas Code expressly allows
committees, to the extent authorized by resolution of the Board of
Directors, to provide for the issuance of shares of stock, fix the
designations and preferences or rights of shares related to dividends,
redemption, dissolution, any distribution of assets or the conversion
into, or the exchange of such shares for, shares of any other class or
classes or any other series of the same or any other class or classes of
stock of the corporation, or fix the numbers of shares of any series of
stock or authorized the increase or decrease of the shares of any series
of stock.

Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents

  Delaware Code Section 145(k) expressly gives the state court
exclusive jurisdiction to resolve disputes for the advancement of
expenses or indemnification brought under the indemnification
provision of the code, any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
otherwise.  The Kansas Code has no such express provision for exclusive
jurisdiction, but the Kansas state courts implicitly have the power to
resolve the disputes.

Taxation of Shares of Stock

  Delaware Code Section 159 expressly prohibits the State of
Delaware from taxing stock held by non-residents.  The Kansas
equivalent code section does not address taxation of stock held by non-
residents.

Liability of Stockholder for Stock Not Paid In Full

  Under the Kansas Code,  Section 17-7101 and Section 60-511, the
Statue of Limitations for a claim for the unpaid balance of consideration
for the issuance of stock shares is five years.  The equivalent Delaware
Code provision, Section 162, has a six-year statute of limitation.

Dividends; Payment

  The Kansas Code, Section 17-6420, generally tracks the language
of Section 170 of the Delaware Code related to the payment of
dividends.  Unlike the Kansas Code, the Delaware Code expressly
provides that nothing in the code section shall invalidate or otherwise
affect a note, debenture or other obligation of the corporation paid by it
as a dividend on shares of its stock, or any payment made thereon, if at
the time of such note, debenture or obligation was delivered by the
corporation, and the corporation had either surplus or net profits from
which the dividend could be lawfully paid.  The Kansas Code does not
contain an equivalent express statement.

Declaration and Payment of Dividends

  Both the Kansas Code and Delaware Code require that if dividends
are paid in unissued capital stock, then the Board of Directors shall
designate as capital, an amount which is not less than the aggregate par
value being declared as a dividend.  Delaware Code also expressly
states that no such designation as capital is necessary if shares are being
distributed pursuant to a split-up or division of its stock rather than a
payment of a dividend payable in stock.  The equivalent Kansas Code
provision is silent about designations in a split-up or a non-dividend
division of stock.

Liability of Directors for Unlawful Dividend, Stock Purchase or
Redemption

  Section 17-6424 of the Kansas Code generally tracks the language
of Section 174 of the Delaware Code except for the statute of
limitations for the unlawful payment of a dividend or unlawful stock
purchase or unlawful redemption.  The Delaware Code provides for a
six-year statute of limitations.  The similar Kansas Code statute of
limitations is three years.

Restrictions on the Transfer and Ownership of Securities

  Delaware Code section 202 expressly states that restrictions may
be placed on the amount of the corporation's securities that may be
owned by any person or group of persons.  The analogous Kansas Code
Section, K.S.A. 17-6426, does not expressly provide for that restriction.
However, the restriction may be implied.

  Additionally, these sections of both the Kansas and Delaware
Codes describe when restrictions on securities are permitted.  Section
202 of the Delaware Code permits a securities restriction that obligates
the holder of restricted securities  to sell or transfer an amount of
restricted securities to the corporation or to any other person.
Delaware Code also authorizes a restriction allowing the automatic sale
or transfer, or that causes the automatic sale or transfer of an amount of
the restricted securities to the corporation or any other person.  The
Kansas Code provision, K.S.A. 17-6426, governing restrictions, does
not have a provision that recognizes a restriction that would obligate a
sale or transfer, or cause an automatic sale or transfer of a restricted
security from a security holder.

  The Kansas Code is also more vague about reasonable purposes for
restrictions on the transfer securities, registration of transfer of
securities, and the amount of securities that may be owned by a group
or person.   The Delaware Code lists specific reasons for restrictions
that are presumptively reasonable.  Under the Kansas Code, any
restriction on the transfer of securities to maintain sub-chapter S status
of the United States Internal Revenue Code or for maintaining any other
tax advantage to the corporation is conclusively presumed to be a
reasonable purpose.

Meeting of Stockholders

  Section K.S.A. 17-6501 provides that if the bylaws do not provide
for a location for an annual meeting, the location will be at the
registered office.  The analogous Delaware Code provision provides for
an annual meeting location as designated by the Board of Directors if
not otherwise specified.  The Kansas Bylaws specifically provide for
the location of the annual meeting to be determined by the Board of
Directors.

  The Delaware Code also allows for attendance at meetings by
remote communication and electronic submission of ballots.  The
Kansas Code does not specify such an option.  The Kansas Code only
requires an annual meeting in any year in which the election of directors
is required to be acted upon under the Investment Company Act of
1940.

Voting Rights of Stockholders; Proxies

  Section 212 of the Delaware Code contains a provision for the
determination of validity of electronic submission of documents from
stockholders.  Because Kansas does not have a provision for the
electronic submission of documents and ballots, there is no equivalent
Kansas Code provision.

Voting Trusts and Other Voting Agreements

  Section K.S.A. 17-6508 of the Kansas Code limits the length of
time to ten (10) years for the term of an agreement that a stockholder
may transfer capital stock to another for the purpose of voting.  Under
the Kansas provision, the voting trust agreement as originally fixed or
extended, maybe extended by one or more beneficiaries by written
agreement with consent of the trustees within the two years prior to
expiration of any voting trust agreement.  Delaware Code, section 218
does not specify a time limit or renewal limitation.

List of Stockholders Entitled To Vote

  Section 219 of the Delaware Code provides that lists of
stockholders entitled to vote may be provided on a reasonably
accessible electronic network (with instructions given related to
accessing the list at the time of notice of the meeting) or during
ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the
Corporation.  The Kansas code does not have an equivalent provision.

Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting

  Section K.S.A. 17-6518 states that unless the Articles of
Incorporation provide otherwise, any action that is required by
Kansas law to be accomplished at an annual or special meeting of
stockholders may only be taken without a meeting, without prior notice
and without a vote, if consent in writing, setting forth the action so
taken is signed by all of the holders of outstanding stock entitled to vote
on the action.  Delaware Code, section 228 only requires the written
consent of the minimum number of shares (votes) that would be
necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all
shares entitled to vote on the action would be present.

Reduction of Capital

  Section 244 of the Delaware Code expressly allows the Board of
Directors to reduce capital by the conversion or exchange of
outstanding capital or capital represented by the shares being converted
to the extent that such capital exceeds the total aggregate par value or
the stated capital of any previously unissued shares issuable upon such
conversion or exchange.  The analogous Kansas Code provision, K.S.A.
17-6604, does not expressly address this situation.


Merger or Consolidation

  Section K.S.A. 17-6709 of the Kansas Code expressly provides
that a company cannot merge or consolidate until all corporate fees and
taxes due to the state have been paid.  The analogous Delaware Code
provision, Section 259, does expressly not include this requirement.

Business Combinations

  The language of section 203 of the Delaware Code provides that
an amendment to the certificate of incorporation or bylaws pursuant to
Section 203 shall be immediately effective if the corporation has never
had stock on a national securities exchange (including quotation by
NASDAQ) or more that 2,000 stockholders, and has not elected by a
provision in its original certificate of incorporation to be governed by
section 203.  The similar Kansas Code section, K.S.A. 12,100, does not
expressly provide for such a rule.  The Delaware Code business
combination section also provides that the business combination
restrictions do not apply when a business combination is with an
interested stockholder who became an interested stockholder prior to
the effective date of the amendment of the certificate of incorporation
or bylaws adopting the restriction against business combinations.

Dissolution by Court Order

  Section 285 of the Delaware Code provides for the filing of a court
ordered dissolution decree or judgment with the Register in the
Chancery of the county in which the decree or judgment was entered.
The Kansas Code provisions do not have a similar requirement.



APPENDIX B

Sec. 262. Appraisal rights.

  (a)     Any stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds
          shares of stock on the date of the making of a demand pursuant
          to subsection (d) of this section with respect to such shares,
          who continuously holds such shares through the effective date
          of the merger or consolidation, who has other compiled with
          subsection (d) of this section and who has neither voted in
          favor of the merger or consolidation nor consented thereto in
          writing pursuant to Sec. 228 of this title shall be entitled to an
          appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair value of the
          stockholder's shares of stock under the circumstances
          described in subsections (b) and (c) of this section. As used in
          this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record
          of stock in a stock corporation and also a member of record of
          a nonstock corporation; the words "stock" and "share" mean
          and include what is ordinarily meant by those words and also
          membership or membership interest of a member of a nonstock
          corporation; and the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt
          or other instrument issued by a depository representing an
          interest in one or more shares, or fractions thereof, solely of
          stock of a corporation, which stock is deposited with the
          depository.

  (b)     Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or
          series of stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or
          consolidation to be effected pursuant to Sec. 251 (other than a
          merger effected pursuant to Sec.  251(g) of this title), Sec. 252,
          Sec. 254, Sec. 257, Sec. 258, Sec. 264 of this title:

     (1)  Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this
          section shall be available for the shares of any class or
          series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in
          respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the
          stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at
          the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of
          merger or consolidation, were either (i) listed on a
          national securities exchange or designated as a national
          market system security on an interdealer quotation
          system by the National Association of Securities Dealers,
          Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders;
          and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be
          available for any shares of stock of the constituent
          corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not
          require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of
          the surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of
          Sec. 251 of this title.

     (2)  Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection,
          appraisal rights under this section shall be available for
          the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent
          corporation if the holders thereof are required by the
          terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation
          pursuant to Sec. 251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of
          this title to accept for such stock anything except:

        a.     Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or
               resulting from such merger or consolidation, or
               depository receipts in respect thereof;

        b.     Shares of stock of any other corporation, or
               depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of
               stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or
               depository receipts at the effective date of the merger
               or consolidation will be either listed on a national
               securities exchange or designated as a national market
               system security on an interdealer quotation system by
               the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or
               held of record by more than 2,000 holders;

        c.     Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional
               depository receipts described in the foregoing
               subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or

        d.     Any combination of the shares of stock, depository
               receipts and cash in lieu of fractional shares or
               fractional depository receipts described in the
               foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this
               paragraph.

     (3)  In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware
          corporation party to a merger effected under Sec. 253
          of this title is not owned by the parent corporation
          immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be
          available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware
          corporation.

  (c)   Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation
        that appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the
        shares of any class or series of its stock as a result of an
        amendment to its certificate of incorporation, any merger or
        consolidation in which the corporation is a constituent
        corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
        the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains
        such a provision, the procedures of this section, including
        those set forth in subsections (d) and (e) of this section, shall
        apply as nearly as is practicable.

  (d)   Appraisal rights shall be perfected as follows:

     (1)  If a proposed merger or consolidation for which
          appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be
          submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the
          corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting,
          shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the
          record date for such meeting with respect to shares for
          which appraisal rights are available pursuant to
          subsection (b) or (c) hereof that appraisal rights are
          available for any or all of the shares of the constituent
          corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of
          this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the
          appraisal of such stockholder's shares shall deliver to the
          corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger
          or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of such
          stockholder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it
          reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the
          stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to
          demand the appraisal of such stockholder's shares. A
          proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall
          not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to
          take such action must do so by a separate written demand
          as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective
          date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or
          resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of
          each constituent corporation who has complied with this
          subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to
          the merger or consolidation of the date that the merger or
          consolidation has become effective; or

     (2)  If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to
          228 or 253 of this title, each constituent corporation,
          either before the effective date of the merger or
          consolidation or within ten days thereafter, shall notify
          each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such
          constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal
          rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and
          that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of
          such class or series of stock of such constituent
          corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of
          this section; provided that, if the notice is given on or
          after the effective date of the merger or consolidation,
          such notice shall be given by the surviving or resulting
          corporation to all such holders of any class or series of
          stock of a constituent corporation that are entitled to
          appraisal rights. Such notice may, and, if given on or
          after the effective date of the merger or consolidation,
          shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date
          of the merger or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled
          to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of
          mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the
          surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such
          holder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it
          reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the
          stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to
          demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such
          notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of
          the merger or consolidation, either (i) each such
          constituent corporation shall send a second notice before
          the effective date of the merger or consolidation
          notifying each of the holders of any class or series of
          stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to
          appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or
          consolidation or (ii) the surviving or resulting
          corporation shall send such a second notice to all such
          holders on or within 10 days after such effective date;
          provided, however, that if such second notice is sent
          more than 20 days following the sending of the first
          notice, such second notice need only be sent to each
          stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who
          has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in
          accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the
          secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of
          the corporation that is required to give either notice that
          such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud,
          be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For
          purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to
          receive either notice, each constituent corporation may
          fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than
          10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided,
          that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of
          the merger or consolidation, the record date shall be such
          effective date. If no record date is fixed and the notice is
          given prior to the effective date, the record date shall be
          the close of business on the day next preceding the day
          on which the notice is given.

  (e)   Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or
        consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation or any
        stockholder who has complied with subsections (a) and (d)
        hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal rights, may
        file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a
        determination of the value of the stock of all such
        stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time
        within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or
        consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw
        such stockholder's demand for appraisal and to accept the
        terms offered upon the merger or consolidation. Within 120
        days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation,
        any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of
        subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be
        entitled to receive from the corporation surviving the merger
        or resulting from the consolidation a statement setting forth the
        aggregate number of shares not voted in favor of the merger or
        consolidation and with respect to which demands for appraisal
        have been received and the aggregate number of holders of
        such shares. Such written statement shall be mailed to the
        stockholder within 10 days after such stockholder's written
        request for such a statement is received by the surviving or
        resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the
        period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection
        (d) hereof, whichever is later.

  (f)   Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service
        of a copy thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting
        corporation, which shall within 20 days after such service file
        in the office of the Register in Chancery in which the petition
        was filed a duly verified list containing the names and
        addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for
        their shares and with whom agreements as to the value of their
        shares have not been reached by the surviving or resulting
        corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the surviving or
        resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by
        such a duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so
        ordered by the Court, shall give notice of the time and place
        fixed for the hearing of such petition by registered or certified
        mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to the
        stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated.
        Such notice shall also be given by 1 or more publications at
        least 1 week before the day of the hearing, in a newspaper of
        general circulation published in the City of Wilmington,
        Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable.
        The forms of the notices by mail and by publication shall be
        approved by the Court, and the costs thereof shall be borne by
        the surviving or resulting corporation.

  (g)   At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the
        stockholders who have complied with this section and who
        have become entitled to appraisal rights. The Court may
        require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal for
        their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to
        submit their certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery
        for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal
        proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such
        direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such
        stockholder.

  (h)   After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the
        Court shall appraise the shares, determining their fair value
        exclusive of any element of value arising from the
        accomplishment or expectation of the merger or consolidation,
        together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon the
        amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such
        fair value, the Court shall take into account all relevant factors.
        In determining the fair rate of interest, the Court may consider
        all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the
        surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to
        borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon
        application by the surviving or resulting corporation or by any
        stockholder entitled to participate in the appraisal proceeding,
        the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery or other
        pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the
        appraisal prior to the final determination of the stockholder
        entitled to an appraisal. Any stockholder whose name appears
        on the list filed by the surviving or resulting corporation
        pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has
        submitted such stockholder's certificates of stock to the
        Register of Chancery, if such is required, may participate fully
        in all proceedings until it is finally determined that such
        stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights under this
        section.

  (i)   The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the
        shares, together with interest, if any, by the surviving or
        resulting corporation to the stockholders entitled thereto.
        Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court may direct.
        Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case
        of holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of
        holders of shares represented by certificates upon the surrender
        to the corporation of the certificates representing such stock.
        The Court's decree may be enforced as other decrees in the
        Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving or
        resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any
        state.

  (j)   The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court
        and taxed upon the parties as the Court deems equitable in the
        circumstances. Upon application of a stockholder, the Court
        may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any
        stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding,
        including, without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and
        the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against
        the value of all the shares entitled to an appraisal.

  (k)   From and after the effective date of the merger or
        consolidation, no stockholder who has demanded appraisal
        rights as provided in subsection (d) of this section shall be
        entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive
        payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock
        (except dividends or other distributions payable to
        stockholders of record at a date which is prior to the effective
        date of the merger or consolidation); provided, however, that if
        no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time
        provided in subsection (e) of this section, or if such
        stockholder shall deliver to the surviving or resulting
        corporation a written withdrawal of such stockholder's
        demand for an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or
        consolidation, either within 60 days after the effective date of
        the merger or consolidation as provided in subsection (e) of
        this section or thereafter with the written approval of the
        corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal
        shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal
        proceeding in the Court of Chancery shall be dismissed as to
        any stockholder without the approval of the Court, and such
        approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court
        deems just.

  (l)   The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which
        the shares of such objecting stockholders would have been
        converted had they assented to the merger or consolidation
        shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of the
        surviving or resulting corporation.

APPENDIX C

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER BUTLER NATIONAL CORPORATION

The Board of Directors Butler National Corporation (the "Company")
hereby adopts this charter to govern the composition of its Audit
Committee (the "Committee") and the scope of the Committee's duties
and responsibilities, and to set forth specific actions the Board
of Directors expects the Committee to undertake to fulfill those
duties and responsibilities.

I.	STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The Committee will assist the Board of Directors in overseeing and
monitoring the Company's financial reporting process. The duties
of the Committee are ones of oversight and supervision. It is not
the duty of the Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine
that the Company's financial statements are complete and accurate
and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles-
that is the responsibility of management and the Company's independent
auditors. Similarly, it is not the duty of the Committee to conduct
investigations or to assure compliance with laws and regulations. The
Board of Directors recognizes that the Committee will rely on the
advice and information it receives from the Company's management
and its internal and outside auditors. The Board does, however,
expect the Committee to exercise independent judgment in assessing
the quality of the Company's financial reporting process and its
internal controls. In doing so, the Board expects that the Committee
will maintain free and open communication with the other directors,
the Company's independent and internal auditors and the financial
management of the Company.

II.	COMPOSITION OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Committee shall be comprised of at least three members of the
Board of Directors, with the number of members to be determined
from time to time by the Board. The members shall be designated
by the Board of Directors.

Each member of the Committee shall have experience or education in
business or financial matters sufficient to provide him or her with
a working familiarity with basic finance and accounting matters. In
addition, the Audit Committee shall include at least one person with
financial management or accounting expertise.

Unless the Board has previously designated the Chair, the members of
the Committee may designate a Chair by majority vote.

III.	MEETINGS

The Committee shall meet at least 4 times annually, or more frequently
if circumstances dictate. One or more of these meetings shall include
separate executive sessions with the Company's Chief Financial Officer,
and the independent auditors. Unless circumstances dictate otherwise,
the meetings should occur quarterly in conjunction with a review of the
Company's quarterly financial results.

IV.	DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The duties and responsibilities of the Committee shall include the
following:

1.	Receive the written disclosures and letter from the Company's
independent auditors required by Independence Standards Board Standard
No. 1.

2.	Review the Company's Annual Report on Form l0-K and the financial
statements contained therein with the Company's financial management
and independent auditors. Discuss any significant financial judgments
made in connection with the preparation of the Company's financial
statements. Receive assurances from financial management that the
financial statements proposed to be included in the Company's Annual
Report contain no material misstatements, and receive assurances from
the independent auditors that, in the course of their audit, they
learned of no material misstatement. If deemed appropriate, after
consideration of the reviews and assurances, recommend to the Board
of Directors that they be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

3.	Review the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and the
financial statements contained therein with the Company's financial
management. Receive assurances from the Company's financial management
that the financial statements included in the Company's reports do not
contain any material misstatements, and receive assurances that the
auditors learned of no material misstatements in the course of their
review of such financial statements.

4.	Discuss at least annually with the Company's independent auditors
the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company's internal controls.
Review the management letter issued by the independent auditor and
management's response thereto. Periodically assess action management
has taken or progress it has made in addressing issues raised by the
independent auditors.

5.	Appoint or reappoint the senior internal auditing executive, and
approve the responsibilities.

6.  Discuss at least annually with the internal auditor the
effectiveness of the Company's internal accounting controls, as well
as any significant letters or reports to management issued by the
internal auditors, and management's responses thereto.

7.   Discuss at least annually with the Company's attorneys the
effectiveness of the Company's legal compliance programs, any legal
matters that may have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements and any material reports or inquiries received from
regulators or government agencies.

8.	Authorize and oversee investigations deemed appropriate into
any matters within the Committee's scope of responsibility, with
the power to retain independent counsel, accountants and other
advisors and experts to assist the Committee if deemed appropriate.

9.	Prepare the disclosure required by the Rules of the Securities
and Exchange Commission to be included in the Company's annual proxy
statement.

10.	Review this charter on an annual basis and make recommendations
to the Board of Directors concerning any changes deemed appropriate.

11.	Report actions of the Committee to the Board of Directors with
such recommendations as the Committee deems appropriate.

End of Charter.

bylaws, the holders of a 35% of the outstanding shares of each class of
stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by
proxy, shall constitute a quorum.  For purposes of the foregoing, two or
more classes or series of stock shall be considered a single class if the
holders thereof are entitled to vote together as a single class at the
meeting.  In the absence of a quorum, the stockholders so present may, by
majority vote, adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner
provided by Section 1.4 of these Bylaws until a quorum shall attend.
Shares of its own capital stock belonging on the record date for the
meeting to the Corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of the
shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation
is held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation, shall neither be entitled
to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the
foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation to vote stock,
including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary
capacity.

     Section 1.6.  Organization.  Meetings of stockholders shall be
presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or in his absence by
the Vice Chairman of the Board, if any, or in his absence by the Chief
Executive Officer, President, or in their absence by a Vice President, or in
the absence of the foregoing persons by a chairman designated by the
Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation by a chairman
chosen at the meeting.  The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting,
but in his absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to
act as secretary of the meeting.

     Section 1.7.  Voting; Proxies.  Unless otherwise provided in the
Articles of Incorporation, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting
of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held
by him which has voting power upon the matter in question. Reference to
the Articles of Incorporation in these Bylaws shall mean the Company's
Articles of Incorporation as may be amended and/or restated.  Each
stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express
consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may
authorize another person or persons to act for him by proxy, but no such
proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless
the proxy provides for a longer period.  A duly executed proxy shall be
irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as,
it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable
power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by
attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in
writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later
date with the Secretary of the Corporation.  Voting at meetings of
stockholders need not be by written ballot and need not be conducted by
inspectors unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
all classes of stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or by proxy
at such meeting shall so determine.  At all meetings of stockholders for the
election of directors, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to
elect.  All other elections and questions shall, unless otherwise provided
by law or by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, be decided by
the vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of all classes
of stock entitled to vote thereon present in person or by proxy at the
meeting, provided that (except as otherwise required by law or by the
Articles of Incorporation) the Board of Directors may require a larger vote
upon any election or question.

     Section 1.8.  Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of
Record.  In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any
adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other
distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in
respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose
of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a
record date, which shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days
before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior to any
other action.  If no record date is fixed:  (1) the record date for
determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the
day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of
business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held;
(2) the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express
consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, when no prior
action by the Board is necessary, shall be the day on which the first written
consent is expressed; and (3) the record date for determining stockholders
for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which
the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.  A determination of
stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided,
however, that the Board may fix a new record date for the adjourned
meeting.

     Section 1.9.  List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote.  The Secretary
shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of
stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the
meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each
stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each
stockholder.  Such list shall be open to the examination of any
stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary
business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, either
at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall
be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the
place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and
kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof
and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

     Section 1.10.  Consent of Stockholders in Lieu of Meeting.  Unless
otherwise provided in the Articles of Incorporation, any action required
by law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of
the Corporation, or any action which may be taken at any annual or
special meeting of such stockholders, may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing,
setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all the holders
of outstanding stock entitled to vote thereon.  In the event that the
action which is consented is such as would have required the filing
of a certificate under any section of the Kansas Statutes, if such
action had been voted upon by stockholders at a meeting thereof, the
certificate filed under such other section shall state, in lieu of
any statement required by such section concerning a vote of stockholders,
that written consent has been given in accordance with the provision of
this section.


              ARTICLE II

          Board of Directors

be five (5).  Thereafter, the minimum and maximum number of directors
shall be as set forth in the Articles of Incorporation.  The Board of
Directors shall have the power to change the number of directors by

     Section 2.2.  Resignation; Removal; Vacancies.  Any director
may resign at any time upon written notice to the Board of Directors or to
the Chief Executive Officer, President or the Secretary of the Corporation.
Such resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and unless
otherwise specified therein no acceptance of such resignation shall be
necessary to make it effective.

     Section 2.3.  Regular Meetings.  Regular meetings of the Board
of Directors may be held at such places within or without the State of
Kansas and at such times as the Board may from time to time determine,
and if so determined, notice thereof need not be given.

     Section 2.4.  Special Meetings.  Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be held at any time or place within or without the State of
Kansas whenever called by the Chairman of the Board, or by the Vice
Chairman of the Board, if any, by the Chief Executive Officer, President
or by any two directors. Reasonable notice thereof shall be given by the
person or persons calling the meeting.

     Section 2.5.  Telephonic Meetings Permitted.  Unless otherwise
restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of
the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board, may
participate in a meeting of the Board or of such committee, as the case
may be, by means of conference telephone or similar communications
equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can
hear each other, and participation in a meeting pursuant to this by-law
shall constitute presence in person at such meeting.

     Section 2.6.  Quorum; Vote Required for Action.  At all meetings
of the Board of Directors a majority of the total number of directors shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  The vote of a majority
of the directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be
the act of the Board unless the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws
shall require a vote of a greater number.  In case at any meeting of the
Board a quorum shall not be present, the members of the Board present
may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall attend.

     Section 2.7.  Organization.  Meetings of the Board of Directors
shall be presided over by the Chairmen of the Board or in his absence by
the Vice Chairman of the Board, if any, or in his absence by the Chief
Executive Officer or President, or in their absence by a chairman chosen
at the meeting.  The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in
his absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as
secretary of the meeting.

     Section 2.8.  Informal Action by Directors.  Unless otherwise
restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action
required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors,
or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all
members of the Board or of such committee, as the case may be, consent
thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board or committee.

               ARTICLE III

               Committees

     Section 3.1.  Committees.  The Board of Directors may, by
resolution passed by a majority of the whole Board, designate one or more
committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the directors of
the Corporation.  The Board may designate one or more directors as
alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or
disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.  In the absence or
disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members
thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether
or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another
member of the Board to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or
disqualified member.  Any such committee, to the extent provided in the
resolution of the Board, shall have and may exercise all the powers and
authority of the Board in the management of the business and affairs of the
Corporation, and may authorize the seal of the Corporation to be affixed
to all papers which may require it; but no such committee shall have power
or authority in reference to amending the Articles of Incorporation,
adopting an agreement of merger or consolidation, recommending to the
stockholders the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the
Corporation's property and assets, recommending to the stockholders a
dissolution of the Corporation or a revocation of dissolution, removing or
indemnifying directors or amending these Bylaws; and, unless the
resolution expressly so provided, no such committee shall have the power
or authority to declare a dividend or to authorize the issuance of stock.

     Section 3.2.  Committee Rules.  Unless the Board of Directors
otherwise provides, each committee designated by the Board may make,
alter and repeal rules for the conduct of its business.  In the absence of a
provision by the Board or a provision in the rules of such committee to the
contrary, a majority of the entire authorized number of members of such
committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, the
vote of a majority of the members present at a meeting at the time of such
vote if a quorum is then present shall be the act of such committee, and in
other respects each committee shall conduct its business in the same
manner as the Board conducts its business pursuant to Article II of these
by-laws.

              ARTICLE IV

               Officers

     Section 4.1.  Officers; Election; Qualification; Term of Office;
Resignation; Removal; Vacancies.  As soon as practicable after the annual
meeting of stockholders in each year, the Board of Directors shall elect a
President and a Secretary, and it may, if it so determines, elect from
among its members Co-Chairmen of the Board and a Vice Chairman of the
Board.  The Board may also elect a Chief Executive Officer, one or more
Vice Presidents, one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, one or more
Assistant Secretaries, a Treasurer and one or more Assistant Treasurers
and may give any of them such further designations or alternate titles as
it considers desirable.  Each such officer shall hold office until the first
meeting of the Board after the annual meeting of stockholders next
succeeding his election, and until his successor is elected and qualified or
until his earlier resignation or removal.  Any officer may resign at any time
upon written notice to the Board or to the Chairman, the President or the
Secretary of the Corporation.  Such resignation shall take effect at the time
specified therein, and unless otherwise specified therein no acceptance of
such resignation shall be necessary to make it effective.  The Board may
remove any officer with or without cause at any time.  Any such removal
shall be without prejudice to the contractual rights of such officer, if any,
with the Corporation, but the election or appointment of an officer shall
not of itself create contractual rights.  Any number of offices may be held
by the same person.  Any vacancy occurring in any office of the
Corporation by death, resignation, removal or otherwise may be filled for
the unexpired portion of the term by the Board at any regular or special
meeting.

     Section 4.2.  Powers and Duties of Executive Officers.  The
officers of the Corporation shall have such powers and duties in the
management of the Corporation as may be prescribed by the Board of
Directors and, to the extent not so provided, as generally pertain to their
respective offices, subject to the control of the Board.  The Board may
require any officer, agent or employee to give security for the faithful
performance of his duties.

                ARTICLE V

                  Stock

     Section 5.1.  Certificates.  Every holder of stock in the
Corporation shall be entitled to have a certificate signed by or in the name
of the Corporation by the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of
Directors, if any, or the Chief Executive Officer, President or a Vice
President, and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer, or the Secretary
or an Assistant Secretary, of the Corporation, certifying the number of
shares owned by him in the Corporation.  If such certificate is manually
signed by one officer or manually countersigned by a transfer agent or by
a registrar, any other signature on the certificate may be a facsimile.  In
case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed or whose
facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to
be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such certificate is issued,
it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such
officer, transfer agent or registrar at the date of issue.

     Section 5.2.  Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Stock Certificates;
Issuance of New Certificates.  The Corporation may issue a new certificate
of stock in the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to
have been lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Corporation may require the
owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, or his legal
representative, to give the Corporation a bond sufficient to indemnify it
against any claim that may be made against it on account of the alleged
loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new
certificate.

               ARTICLE VI

              Miscellaneous

     Section 6.1.  Fiscal Year.  The fiscal year of the Corporation shall
be determined by the Board of Directors.

     Section 6.2.  Seal.  The Corporation may have a corporate seal
which shall have the name of the Corporation inscribed thereon and shall
be in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Board of
Directors.  The corporate seal may be used by causing it or a facsimile
thereof to be impressed or affixed or in any other manner reproduced.

     Section 6.3.  Waiver of Notice of Meetings of Stockholders,
Directors and Committees.  Whenever notice is required to be given by
law or under any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or these
Bylaws, a written waiver  thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice,
whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent
to notice.  Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of
notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the
express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the
transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or
convened.  Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any
regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors, or members of a
committee of directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice
unless so required by the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

     Section 6.4.  Indemnification of Directors, Officers, Employees
and Agents.

     (a)  Directors.  The Corporation shall indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened
pending or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the
Corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, judgment, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him
in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, suit or
proceeding, including attorneys' fees, to the full extent permitted by
Kansas Corporation Code, as amended, K.S.A. 17-6305.

     (b)  Officers, Employees and Agents.  The Corporation may, at
the discretion of the Board of Directors, indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or contemplated action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, including an action by or in the right of the
Corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer, employee
or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action, suit or proceeding, including attorneys' fees, to the full
extent permitted by Kansas Corporation Code, as amended, K.S.A.  17-
6305.

     (c)  Expenses.

        (i)    The Corporation shall pay the director, or such person
or entity as the director may designate, on a continuing and current basis
and in any event not later than 10 business days following receipt by the
Corporation of the director's request for reimbursement of all expenses,
including attorneys fees, costs, settlement, fines and judgment incurred by
or levied upon the director in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in Section 6.4, subsection (a).

        (ii)   To the extent that an officer, employee or agent
of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to Section 6.4,
subsection (b) or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall
be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection therewith, including attorneys' fees.

        (iii)  Expenses incurred by a director or officer in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the
Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit, or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director
or officer to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that the
director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as
authorized in these Bylaws.  Such expenses incurred by other employees
and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the
Board of Directors deems appropriate.

     (d)  Board Authorization.  Any indemnification of directors,
officers, employees or agents pursuant to this Section 6.4, unless ordered
by a court, shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that such indemnification is proper in
the circumstances because such director, officer, employee or agent has
met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Kansas Corporation
Code, as amended, K.S.A. 17-6305.  Such determination shall be made by
the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of
directors who were not parties to the action, suit, or proceeding, or if such
a quorum is not obtainable, or even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested
directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or
by the stockholders.

     (e)  Notification and Defense of Claim.  Promptly after receipt
by a director, officer, employee or agent of notice of the commencement
of any action, suit or proceeding, the director, officer, employee or agent
will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made, against the Corporation,
notify the Corporation of the commencement thereof.  The failure to
promptly notify the Corporation will not relieve the Corporation from any
liability that it may have to the director, officer, employee or agent
hereunder, except to the extent the Corporation is prejudiced in its defense
of such claim as a result of such failure.  Unless otherwise requested by the
Board of Directors, written notification shall not be necessary if the
director, officer, employee or agent informs a majority of the Board of
Directors of the commencement of any such action, or, independent of
such notification by the director, officer, employee or agent, a majority of
the Board of Directors has reason to believe such action has been initiated
or threatened.  With respect to any such action, suit or proceeding as to
which the director, officer, employee or agent notified, or is deemed to
have notified, the Corporation of the commencement thereof; the
following shall apply:

        (i)    The Corporation will be entitled to participate therein
at its own expense;

        (ii)   Except as otherwise provided below, to the
extent that it may wish, the Corporation, jointly with any other
indemnifying party similarly notified, will be entitled to assume the
defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the director,
officer, employee or agent.  After notice from the Corporation to the
director, officer, employee or agent of its election so to assume the defense
thereof, the Corporation will not be liable to the director, officer,
employee or agent for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred
by the director, officer, employee or agent in connection with the defense
thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation or unless: (A) the
employment of separate counsel by the director, officer, employee or
entity has been authorized by the Corporation; (B) the director, officer,
employee or agent reasonably concludes that there may be a conflict of
interest between the Corporation and the director, officer, employee or
agent in the conduct of the defense of such action and that such conflict
may lead to exposure for the director, officer, employee or agent and the
director, officer, employee or agent notifies the Corporation of such
conclusion and decision to employ separate counsel; or (C) the
Corporation fails to employ counsel to assume the defense of such action.
The Corporation shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any action,
suit or proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Corporation or as to
which the director, officer, employee or agent reasonably makes the
conclusion provided for in (B) above; and

        (iii)  The Corporation shall not be liable to
indemnify the director, officer, employee or agent for any amount paid in
settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent.  The
Corporation shall not settle any action or claim in any manner which
would impose any penalty or limitation on the director, officer, employee
or agent without the written consent of the director, officer, employee or
agent.  Neither the Corporation nor the director, officer, employee or agent
will unreasonably withhold their consent to any proposed settlement.

     (f)  Not Exclusive.  The indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided by this Section 6.4 shall not be deemed exclusive of
any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement
of expenses may be entitled under the Articles of Incorporation, as
amended from time to time, or any agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in an official
capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office,
and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer
and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of
such person.

     (g)  Further Indemnity.  The Corporation shall have the power
to give any further indemnity, in addition to the indemnity authorized or
contemplated under this Section 6.4, to any person who is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent or to any person who is or was serving
at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise;
provided, no such indemnity shall indemnify any person from or on
account of such person's conduct which was finally adjudged to have been
knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct, or if
it is determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication by a court
of competent jurisdiction considering the question of indemnification that
such payment of indemnification is or would be in violation of applicable
law.  The Corporation may enter into indemnification agreements with
each director and officer of the Corporation whom the Board of Directors
authorizes by vote of a majority of a quorum of disinterested directors.

     (h)  Insurance.  The Corporation may 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 a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any
liability asserted against him and incurred by him 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 the
provisions of this Section 6.4.  When, and if, the Corporation obtains such
insurance coverage, the Corporation shall not be required to maintain such
insurance coverage in effect; provided, however, that the Corporation
notifies the covered person in writing within five business days of the
making of the decision to not renew or replace such insurance policy.  The
maintenance of such insurance shall not diminish, relieve or replace the
Corporation's liability for indemnification under the provisions hereof.  A
claim for reimbursement hereunder, shall not be denied on the basis that
such amount may or will be covered by such insurance policy, if such
payments from the insurance company will not be made to the covered
person within 10 business days of the claim for reimbursement.

     (i)  Definitions.  For the purpose of this Section 6.4, references
to "the Corporation" include all constituent corporations absorbed in a
consolidation or merger as well as the resulting or surviving corporation,
so that any person who is or was a director or officer of such a constituent
corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent
corporation as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise shall stand in the same position
under the provisions of this Section 6.4, with respect to the resulting or
surviving corporation as he would if he had served the resulting or
surviving corporation in the same capacity.

  For purposes of this Section 6.4, the following definitions shall apply

        (i)    The term "other enterprise" shall include employee
benefit plans.

        (ii)   The term "fines" shall include any excise taxes
assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan.

        (iii)  The term "serving at the request of the
Corporation" shall include any service as a director or officer of the
Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such
director or officer with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
participants, or beneficiaries.

        (iv) A person who acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and
beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted
in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of the corporation".

     Section 6.5.  Interested Directors; Quorum.  No contract or
transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its directors or
officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation,
partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its
directors or officers are directors or officers, or have a financial interest,
shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the
director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board
of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or
transaction, or solely because his or their votes are counted for such
purpose, if:  (1) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as
to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or
the committee, and the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the
contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the
disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than
a quorum; or (2) the material facts as to his relationship or interest and as
to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the
stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is
specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (3) the
contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is
authorized, approved or ratified, by the Board, a committee thereof or the
stockholders. Common or interested directors may be counted in
determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board or of a
committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

     Section 6.6.  Form of Records.  Any records maintained by the
Corporation in the regular course of its business, including its stock ledger,
books of account and minute books, may be kept on, or be in the form of,
punch cards, magnetic tape, photographs, microphotographs or any other
information storage device, provided that the records so kept can be
converted into clearly legible form within a reasonable time.  The
Corporation shall so convert any records so kept upon the request of any
person entitled to inspect the same.

     Section 6.7.  Amendment of Bylaws.  The Bylaws of the
Corporation may from time to time be repealed, amended or altered, or
new Bylaws may be adopted, in either of the following ways:

        (i)    By the vote of a majority of the stockholders entitled to
vote at any annual or special meeting thereof; and

        (ii)   By resolution adopted by a majority of the
members of the Board of Directors then in office; provided, however that
the power of the directors to suspend, repeal, amend or otherwise alter the
Bylaws or any portion thereof may be denied as to any Bylaws or portion
thereof enacted by the stockholders if at the time of such enactment the
stockholders shall so expressly provide.


       CERTIFICATE OF SECRETARY

  I, the undersigned, do hereby certify:
