diligence and skill that a reasonably prudent person would exercise in
comparable circumstances. The Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated Articles of
Association (&#147;Articles of Association&#148;) provide that, to the fullest extent
permitted by British Virgin Islands law or any other applicable laws, the
Registrant&#146;s directors will not be personally liable to the Registrant or its
shareholders for any acts or omissions in the performance of their duties. The
Articles of Association also provide that, subject to certain limitations, the
Registrant may indemnify against all expenses, including legal fees, and
against all judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and reasonably
incurred in connection with legal, administrative or investigative proceedings
any person who (a)&nbsp;is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed proceedings, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or
was a director, an officer or a liquidator of the Company; or (b)&nbsp;is or was, at
the request of the Company, serving as a director, officer or liquidator of, or
in any other capacity is or was acting for, another company or a partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The Registrant&#146;s Articles of
Association also provide that the Registrant may purchase and maintain

the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes the following:
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(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 the
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 the 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
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate,
the changes in volume and price represent no more than a
20% 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 the Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in the Registration
Statement.
Provided, however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply
if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by
those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to
the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that are incorporated by reference in the
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.
(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 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 the 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.
(c) 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 Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
