proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification is permitted if the director or officer is adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only

final disposition; provided that if required by the DGCL, the payment of expenses incurred by a director or officer in that capacity (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer,

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") permits a corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except that such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for (1) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) liability under section 174 of the DGCL for unlawful payment of dividends or stock purchases or redemptions, or (4) any transaction from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Article VIII of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to the Registrant or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that such exemption from liability or the limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL.
Under Section 2.13 of the Registrant's Bylaws, the Registrant is obligated to indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a
party or is threatened to be made a party to or otherwise is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that the person is or was
a director or officer of the Registrant or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director,
2
officer, trustee, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained by the
Registrant, to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) that are reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with such proceeding.
In general, the DGCL permits a corporation to indemnify a director or officer
who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) for expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonable incurred, if the person (i) acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and (ii) in the case of a criminal
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification is permitted if the director or officer is adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only
to the extent the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which the proceeding was brought determines that in view of all of the circumstances of the case such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for expenses.
If the proceeding for which indemnification is sought is initiated by the director or officer seeking indemnification, such person is entitled
to indemnification only if the proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification under the Registrant's Bylaws includes the right to be paid the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its
final disposition; provided that if required by the DGCL, the payment of expenses incurred by a director or officer in that capacity (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer,
including service to an employee benefit plan) will be contingent on the delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay all amounts so advanced if it ultimately is determined that such person is not
entitled to indemnification.
The Registrant also maintains, at its expense, insurance to protect itself and its directors and officers
against expenses, liabilities and losses.

Powers of Attorney (included on signature page)
No original issue shares of Common Stock will be made available by the Registrant for acquisition by Plan participants, and
accordingly, in accordance with Part II, Item 8(a) of Form S-8, no opinion as to the legality of the shares is included in this filing.
The
Registrant received from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") a determination letter that the Plan is qualified under section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Registrant hereby undertakes to submit any amendments thereto to the
IRS in a timely manner and will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan.
Item 9.
Undertakings.
(1) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to file, during any
period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(a) to include
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(b) 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 the 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 percent change in the maximum aggregate
offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(c) 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 1(a) and 1(b) do
not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in 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 this Registration Statement.
4
(2) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each 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) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes 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.
(4) The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining 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.
(5) 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 1933 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
