Item 9. Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
3
Table of Contents
(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;
(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 hereof) 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 SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")
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;
(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)
above 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 SEC 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, 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, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d)
of the Exchange Act (and where applicable, each filing of an employee
benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act) 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.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act 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
Securities 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)
4
Table of Contents
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 and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
