ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Corn Products International, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for
Outside Directors Obligations. The Corn Products International, Inc. Deferred
Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (the "Deferred Compensation Plan")
requires members of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") who are not,
and have never been, employees of the Company (the "Outside Directors") to
receive at least 50% or, upon election, either 75% or 100% of their annual Board
retainer (the "Deferred Amount") in the form of phantom stock units credited to
a deferred stock account (a "Deferred Stock Account") created and maintained for
each Outside Director. The number of phantom stock units attributed to each
Outside Director's Deferred Stock Account is determined by dividing (i) the
Deferred Amount by (ii) the average of the high and low prices of the Common
Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of the determination thereof,
as reported in The Wall Street Journal as New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions (the "Fair Market Value"). In addition, as of each date on which
dividends are paid on the shares of Common Stock, each Outside Director's
Deferred Stock Account will be credited with additional phantom stock units,
such number of units to be determined by dividing (i) the product of the amount
of


                                      -1-
<PAGE>

such dividends per share multiplied by the number of phantom stock units then
credited to the Deferred Stock Account by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock on the applicable dividend payment date.

         The Deferred Compensation Plan obligations (the "Deferred Compensation
Obligations") registered hereunder cannot be alienated, sold or transferred to
any other individual, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
Payments under the Deferred Compensation Plan of the Deferred Compensation
Obligations registered hereunder will be made out of the Outside Directors'
Deferred Stock Accounts in one lump sum or as many as ten equal installments at
such dates as may be determined by the Outside Director, but in no event (i)
earlier than six months after the Outside Director's termination from the Board,
(ii) later than ten years and six months following termination from the Board or
(iii) more than once every calendar year. Outside Directors may elect to receive
their payments in cash, in shares of Common Stock or in a combination of cash
and shares of Common Stock in 25% increments. If the Outside Director is removed
from the Board rather than voluntarily resigning or retiring, then the Company
will pay the entire Fair Market Value of his or her Deferred Stock Account in
cash on the date of such removal.

         The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Deferred
Compensation Plan at any time, provided that any such amendment or termination
may not alter or impair an Outside Director's then existing rights in respect of
such Outside Director's Deferred Stock Account.

         Corn Products International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan Obligations. The following individuals may participate in the Corn Products
International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP"): (i)
those employees designated by the Company's Vice President of Human Resources
and approved by the Board's Pension Committee ("New Account Participants") to
participate in one of three types of accounts under the SERP (the "New
Accounts"); (ii) those employees whose benefits under the Company's Cash Balance
Plan ("CBP Participants") are limited due to income deferral elections or
Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") imposed compensation limits; (iii) those
employees designated as New Account Participants under (i) whose active
participation in the Company's Retirement Savings Plan (the "RSP Participants")
is limited due to income deferral elections or IRS imposed compensation limits;
and (iv) those employees of the Company who have amounts transferred from the
CPC International, Inc. Prior Savings Plan (the "Prior Plan") as of December 31,
1997 (the "Prior Participants"). Obligations under the SERP to CBP Participants
are not being registered hereby. Upon election in writing, a New Account
Participant may choose to defer a portion of his or her annual compensation or
awards received under various Company plans into his or her individual New
Account and thereby qualify as an RSP Participant as well. CBP Participants and
Prior Participants are automatically enrolled in the SERP. RSP Participants will
receive an amount equal to the amount that would have been credited to such
participant if such participant had not elected to defer compensation under the
Company's Cash Balance Plan or Retirement Savings Plan and had no IRS imposed
compensation limits been applied, so long as, in the case of RSP Participants,
the RSP Participant has not exceeded the IRS limit on elective deferrals to the
Retirement Savings Plan. Each Prior Participant will receive an amount equal to
the amount held by such participant in the Prior Plan on January 1, 1998. New
Account Participants and Prior Participants are 100% vested in their accounts,
while RSP Participants are vested to the extent they are vested in their plan
accounts.

         The New Account Participants, RSP Participants and Prior Participants
are allowed to choose between two "deemed investment earnings" options for their
deferrals: (i) the Prime Rate Investment Option, which will provide earnings at
the monthly compound equivalent of the Prime Rate as reported in The Wall Street
Journal (Midwest edition) showing the composite prime rate in effect on the
first business day of each calendar quarter; or (ii) the Phantom Stock Unit
Option, which will provide earnings reflecting the increase or decrease in the
Fair Market Value (as defined above in connection with the Deferred Compensation
Plan Obligations) of phantom stock units based upon shares of the Common Stock.
If the participant chooses the Phantom Stock Unit Option, the number of phantom
stock units credited to such participant's account will be equal to the amount
deferred divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the
effective date of the deferral or, if such date is not a trading day for the New
York Stock Exchange, then on the first trading day after such deferral. Under
the Phantom Stock Unit Option, a participant will also receive dividends of
additional phantom stock units, the amount of such dividends to be determined in
the same manner as described above for the Deferred Compensation Plan. Decisions
to designate the Phantom Stock Unit Option as the deemed investment option for
existing or new deferrals are irrevocable.



                                      -2-
<PAGE>

         The SERP obligations (the "SERP Obligations") registered hereunder
cannot be alienated, sold or transferred to any other individual. The method of
distributing payments under the SERP of the SERP Obligations registered
hereunder vary depending upon the type of participant: CBP Participants and RSP
Participants will receive distributions at the same time and in the same form as
the distributions the participant selected from the Cash Balance Plan or
Retirement Savings Plan, respectively. Prior Participants may receive
distributions in a lump sum or in up to 10 essentially equal annual installments
paid or commencing no sooner than one year and no later than five years after
the Prior Participant's termination of employment. New Account Participants will
select a method of distribution at the time of each deferral election, which
selection is final. A New Account Participant may receive distributions either
(i) in a lump sum payment at the time of the termination of the New Account
Participant's employment or in the January of the year following termination of
employment, (ii) in up to 10 essentially equal annual installments beginning at
the termination of employment or (iii) while still actively employed by
selecting a distribution date certain in the future. All distributions from the
Phantom Stock Unit Option will be in shares of Common Stock except for
fractional shares which will be paid in cash.

         The Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the SERP
at any time.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         Certain legal matters in connection with the Common Stock offered
hereby will be passed upon for the Company by Marcia E. Doane, Vice President,
General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for the Company. As of December 1, 2001,
Ms. Doane owned 4,693 shares of Common Stock and held restricted stock awards of
5,634 shares, vested options to purchase 59,000 shares and unvested options to
purchase 18,000 shares. Additionally, 2,464 shares of the Company's common stock
held by the Corn Products International, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan was
attributable to Ms. Doane as of December 1, 2001.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

         Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(the "DGCL") provides, in summary, that directors and officers of Delaware
corporations such as the Company are entitled, under certain circumstances, to
be indemnified against all expenses and liabilities (including attorneys' fees)
incurred by them as a result of suits brought against them in their capacity as
a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had
no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; provided, that no
indemnification may be made against expenses in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which they shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action
or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, they
are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such
court shall deem proper. Any such indemnification may be made by the corporation
only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination by the
stockholders or disinterested directors that indemnification is proper because
the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct.

         Article VII of the Company's Amended By-Laws entitles officers,
directors and controlling persons of the Company to indemnification to the full
extent permitted by Section 145 of DGCL, as the same may be supplemented or
amended from time to time.




                                      -3-
<PAGE>




Article VII of the Company's Amended By-Laws provides:

                                "Indemnification"

                           Section 1. Each person who was or is made a party or
                  is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any
                  action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
                  administrative or investigative (hereafter a "proceeding"), by
                  reason of the fact that he, or a person for whom he is the
                  legal representative, is or was a director, officer or
                  employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the
                  request of the Corporation as a director, officer or employee
                  of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
                  other enterprise, including service with respect to employee
                  benefit plans, shall be indemnified by the Corporation to the
                  fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation
                  Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against
                  all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees,
                  judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes, penalties and amounts
                  paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or
                  suffered by such person in connection with such service;
                  provided, however, that the Corporation shall indemnify any
                  such person seeking indemnification in connection with a
                  proceeding initiated by him only if such proceeding was
                  authorized by the Board of Directors, either generally or in
                  the specific instance. The right to indemnification shall
                  include the advancement of expenses incurred in defending any
                  such proceeding in advance of its final disposition in
                  accordance with procedures established from time to time by
                  the Board of Directors; provided, however, that, if the
                  Delaware General Corporation Law so requires, the director,
                  officer or employee shall deliver to the Corporation an
                  undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall
                  ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be
                  indemnified under this Article or otherwise.

                           Section 2. The rights of indemnification provided in
                  this Article shall be in addition to any rights to which any
                  person may otherwise be entitled by law or under any By-law,
                  agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or
                  otherwise. Such rights shall continue as to any person who has
                  ceased to be a director, officer or employee and shall inure
                  to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators, and
                  shall be applicable to proceedings commenced after the
                  adoption hereof, whether arising from acts or omissions
                  occurring before or after the adoption hereof.

                           Section 3. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
                  insurance to protect any person against any liability or
                  expense asserted against or incurred by such person in
                  connection with any proceeding, whether or not the Corporation
                  would have the power to indemnify such person against such
                  liability or expense by law or under this Article or
                  otherwise. The Corporation may create a trust fund, grant a
                  security interest or use other means (including, without
                  limitation, a letter of credit) to insure the payment of such
                  sums as may become necessary to effect indemnification as
                  provided herein."

         The Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with
directors and officers of the Company, pursuant to which the Company will
indemnify such directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by
Delaware law and the Company's Amended By-laws, as the same may be amended from
time to time.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed
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.

                  change in the information set forth in this 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 this
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 or Form F-3, and 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 Company 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.

         (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
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 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.

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Corn Products International, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan for
Outside Directors Obligations. The Corn Products International, Inc. Deferred
Compensation Plan for Outside Directors (the "Deferred Compensation Plan")
requires members of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") who are not,
and have never been, employees of the Company (the "Outside Directors") to
receive at least 50% or, upon election, either 75% or 100% of their annual Board
retainer (the "Deferred Amount") in the form of phantom stock units credited to
a deferred stock account (a "Deferred Stock Account") created and maintained for
each Outside Director. The number of phantom stock units attributed to each
Outside Director's Deferred Stock Account is determined by dividing (i) the
Deferred Amount by (ii) the average of the high and low prices of the Common
Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of the determination thereof,
as reported in The Wall Street Journal as New York Stock Exchange Composite
Transactions (the "Fair Market Value"). In addition, as of each date on which
dividends are paid on the shares of Common Stock, each Outside Director's
Deferred Stock Account will be credited with additional phantom stock units,
such number of units to be determined by dividing (i) the product of the amount
of

                                      -1-
such dividends per share multiplied by the number of phantom stock units then
credited to the Deferred Stock Account by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share
of Common Stock on the applicable dividend payment date.

         The Deferred Compensation Plan obligations (the "Deferred Compensation
Obligations") registered hereunder cannot be alienated, sold or transferred to
any other individual, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
Payments under the Deferred Compensation Plan of the Deferred Compensation
Obligations registered hereunder will be made out of the Outside Directors'
Deferred Stock Accounts in one lump sum or as many as ten equal installments at
such dates as may be determined by the Outside Director, but in no event (i)
earlier than six months after the Outside Director's termination from the Board,
(ii) later than ten years and six months following termination from the Board or
(iii) more than once every calendar year. Outside Directors may elect to receive
their payments in cash, in shares of Common Stock or in a combination of cash
and shares of Common Stock in 25% increments. If the Outside Director is removed
from the Board rather than voluntarily resigning or retiring, then the Company
will pay the entire Fair Market Value of his or her Deferred Stock Account in
cash on the date of such removal.

         The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Deferred
Compensation Plan at any time, provided that any such amendment or termination
may not alter or impair an Outside Director's then existing rights in respect of
such Outside Director's Deferred Stock Account.

         Corn Products International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan Obligations. The following individuals may participate in the Corn Products
International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP"): (i)
those employees designated by the Company's Vice President of Human Resources
and approved by the Board's Pension Committee ("New Account Participants") to
participate in one of three types of accounts under the SERP (the "New
Accounts"); (ii) those employees whose benefits under the Company's Cash Balance
Plan ("CBP Participants") are limited due to income deferral elections or
Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") imposed compensation limits; (iii) those
employees designated as New Account Participants under (i) whose active
participation in the Company's Retirement Savings Plan (the "RSP Participants")
is limited due to income deferral elections or IRS imposed compensation limits;
and (iv) those employees of the Company who have amounts transferred from the
CPC International, Inc. Prior Savings Plan (the "Prior Plan") as of December 31,
1997 (the "Prior Participants"). Obligations under the SERP to CBP Participants
are not being registered hereby. Upon election in writing, a New Account
Participant may choose to defer a portion of his or her annual compensation or
awards received under various Company plans into his or her individual New
Account and thereby qualify as an RSP Participant as well. CBP Participants and
Prior Participants are automatically enrolled in the SERP. RSP Participants will
receive an amount equal to the amount that would have been credited to such
participant if such participant had not elected to defer compensation under the
Company's Cash Balance Plan or Retirement Savings Plan and had no IRS imposed
compensation limits been applied, so long as, in the case of RSP Participants,
the RSP Participant has not exceeded the IRS limit on elective deferrals to the
Retirement Savings Plan. Each Prior Participant will receive an amount equal to
the amount held by such participant in the Prior Plan on January 1, 1998. New
Account Participants and Prior Participants are 100% vested in their accounts,
while RSP Participants are vested to the extent they are vested in their plan
accounts.

         The New Account Participants, RSP Participants and Prior Participants
are allowed to choose between two "deemed investment earnings" options for their
deferrals: (i) the Prime Rate Investment Option, which will provide earnings at
the monthly compound equivalent of the Prime Rate as reported in The Wall Street
Journal (Midwest edition) showing the composite prime rate in effect on the
first business day of each calendar quarter; or (ii) the Phantom Stock Unit
Option, which will provide earnings reflecting the increase or decrease in the
Fair Market Value (as defined above in connection with the Deferred Compensation
Plan Obligations) of phantom stock units based upon shares of the Common Stock.
If the participant chooses the Phantom Stock Unit Option, the number of phantom
stock units credited to such participant's account will be equal to the amount
deferred divided by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the
effective date of the deferral or, if such date is not a trading day for the New
York Stock Exchange, then on the first trading day after such deferral. Under
the Phantom Stock Unit Option, a participant will also receive dividends of
additional phantom stock units, the amount of such dividends to be determined in
the same manner as described above for the Deferred Compensation Plan. Decisions
to designate the Phantom Stock Unit Option as the deemed investment option for
existing or new deferrals are irrevocable.

                                      -2-
The SERP obligations (the "SERP Obligations") registered hereunder
cannot be alienated, sold or transferred to any other individual. The method of
distributing payments under the SERP of the SERP Obligations registered
hereunder vary depending upon the type of participant: CBP Participants and RSP
Participants will receive distributions at the same time and in the same form as
the distributions the participant selected from the Cash Balance Plan or
Retirement Savings Plan, respectively. Prior Participants may receive
distributions in a lump sum or in up to 10 essentially equal annual installments
paid or commencing no sooner than one year and no later than five years after
the Prior Participant's termination of employment. New Account Participants will
select a method of distribution at the time of each deferral election, which
selection is final. A New Account Participant may receive distributions either
(i) in a lump sum payment at the time of the termination of the New Account
Participant's employment or in the January of the year following termination of
employment, (ii) in up to 10 essentially equal annual installments beginning at
the termination of employment or (iii) while still actively employed by
selecting a distribution date certain in the future. All distributions from the
Phantom Stock Unit Option will be in shares of Common Stock except for
fractional shares which will be paid in cash.

         The Company reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the SERP
at any time.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         Certain legal matters in connection with the Common Stock offered
hereby will be passed upon for the Company by Marcia E. Doane, Vice President,
General Counsel and Corporate Secretary for the Company. As of December 1, 2001,
Ms. Doane owned 4,693 shares of Common Stock and held restricted stock awards of
5,634 shares, vested options to purchase 59,000 shares and unvested options to
purchase 18,000 shares. Additionally, 2,464 shares of the Company's common stock
held by the Corn Products International, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan was
attributable to Ms. Doane as of December 1, 2001.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

         Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(the "DGCL") provides, in summary, that directors and officers of Delaware
corporations such as the Company are entitled, under certain circumstances, to
be indemnified against all expenses and liabilities (including attorneys' fees)
incurred by them as a result of suits brought against them in their capacity as
a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had
no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; provided, that no
indemnification may be made against expenses in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which they shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action
or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, they
are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such
court shall deem proper. Any such indemnification may be made by the corporation
only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination by the
stockholders or disinterested directors that indemnification is proper because
the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct.

         Article VII of the Company's Amended By-Laws entitles officers,
directors and controlling persons of the Company to indemnification to the full
extent permitted by Section 145 of DGCL, as the same may be supplemented or
amended from time to time.

                                      -3-
Article VII of the Company's Amended By-Laws provides:

                                "Indemnification"

                           Section 1. Each person who was or is made a party or
                  is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any
                  action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
                  administrative or investigative (hereafter a "proceeding"), by
                  reason of the fact that he, or a person for whom he is the
                  legal representative, is or was a director, officer or
                  employee of the Corporation or is or was serving at the
                  request of the Corporation as a director, officer or employee
                  of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
                  other enterprise, including service with respect to employee
                  benefit plans, shall be indemnified by the Corporation to the
                  fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation
                  Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, against
                  all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees,
                  judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes, penalties and amounts
                  paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or
                  suffered by such person in connection with such service;
                  provided, however, that the Corporation shall indemnify any
                  such person seeking indemnification in connection with a
                  proceeding initiated by him only if such proceeding was
                  authorized by the Board of Directors, either generally or in
                  the specific instance. The right to indemnification shall
                  include the advancement of expenses incurred in defending any
                  such proceeding in advance of its final disposition in
                  accordance with procedures established from time to time by
                  the Board of Directors; provided, however, that, if the
                  Delaware General Corporation Law so requires, the director,
                  officer or employee shall deliver to the Corporation an
                  undertaking to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall
                  ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be
                  indemnified under this Article or otherwise.

                           Section 2. The rights of indemnification provided in
                  this Article shall be in addition to any rights to which any
                  person may otherwise be entitled by law or under any By-law,
                  agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or
                  otherwise. Such rights shall continue as to any person who has
                  ceased to be a director, officer or employee and shall inure
                  to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators, and
                  shall be applicable to proceedings commenced after the
                  adoption hereof, whether arising from acts or omissions
                  occurring before or after the adoption hereof.

                           Section 3. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
                  insurance to protect any person against any liability or
                  expense asserted against or incurred by such person in
                  connection with any proceeding, whether or not the Corporation
                  would have the power to indemnify such person against such
                  liability or expense by law or under this Article or
                  otherwise. The Corporation may create a trust fund, grant a
                  security interest or use other means (including, without
                  limitation, a letter of credit) to insure the payment of such
                  sums as may become necessary to effect indemnification as
                  provided herein."

         The Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with
directors and officers of the Company, pursuant to which the Company will
indemnify such directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by
Delaware law and the Company's Amended By-laws, as the same may be amended from
time to time.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed
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.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

         (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 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; 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 this
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 or Form F-3, and 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 Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

                                      -5-
(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
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 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.

registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto
