<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under our articles of incorporation, we are required to indemnify and hold harmless, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, each person (a &#147;Covered Person&#148;) who was or is made or is
threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a &#147;Proceeding&#148;), by reason of the fact that he or
she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of
ours or, while a director or officer of ours, is or was serving at our request as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust,
enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against
all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) reasonably incurred by
such Covered Person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in the
certificate of incorporation, we are required to indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a
Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Covered Person only if the commencement of such
Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Covered Person was authorized by our Board of Directors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, as permitted by Nevada law, our certificate of incorporation provides that no
director will be liable to us or to our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of certain
fiduciary duties as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the
rights of its stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for
breach of certain fiduciary duties as a director, except that a director will be personally liable

would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the

by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such

INCORPORATION OF CONTENTS OF
REGISTRATION STATEMENT BY REFERENCE
A registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-139952) was filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on January 12, 2007 covering the registration of 1,200,000 shares initially
authorized for issuance under our Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan").
Pursuant to Rule 429 and General Instruction E of Form S-8, this registration statement is being
filed to register an additional 600,000 shares authorized under the 2005 Plan. This registration
statement should also be considered a post-effective amendment to the prior registration statement.
The contents of the aforementioned registration statement are incorporated herein by reference.

Commission either as part of this registration statement or as prospectuses or prospectus
supplements pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the Securities Act.
PART II

The following documents filed by the registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission
are hereby incorporated herein by this reference:

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Under our articles of incorporation, we are required to indemnify and hold harmless, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, each person (a "Covered Person") who was or is made or is
threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a "Proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or
she, or a person for whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of
ours or, while a director or officer of ours, is or was serving at our request as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust,
enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against
all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys' fees) reasonably incurred by
such Covered Person. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in the
certificate of incorporation, we are required to indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a
Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such Covered Person only if the commencement of such
Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Covered Person was authorized by our Board of Directors.
In addition, as permitted by Nevada law, our certificate of incorporation provides that no
director will be liable to us or to our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of certain
fiduciary duties as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the
rights of its stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for
breach of certain fiduciary duties as a director, except that a director will be personally liable
for:
•
any breach of his or her duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
•
acts or omissions not in good faith which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law;
•
the payment of dividends or the redemption or purchase of stock in violation of
Nevada law; or
•
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted
to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the
SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is
therefore unenforceable.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

Item 9. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(a)(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in this registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered
would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of
the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and prices represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change to such
information in this registration statement;
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration
statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
II-3
Table of Contents
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
