advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is

the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the

director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the

See the Exhibit Index, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings.
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 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 the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the
registration statement.
Provided, however
, that: (A) paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and 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)
-3-
Table of Contents
of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement; and (B) paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and
(1)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or
Form F-3 and 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 Exchange Act that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is
contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that
is part of the registration statement.
Provided, further, however,
that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not
apply if the registration statement is for an offering of asset-backed
securities on Form S-1 or Form S-3, and the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment is provided pursuant to Item
1100(c) of Regulation AB.
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.
4.
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities
Act of 1933 to any purchaser:
(i)
If the Registrant is relying on Rule 430B:
(A)
Each prospectus filed
by the Registrant
pursuant to Rule
424(b)(3) shall be
deemed to be part of
the registration
statement as of the
date the filed
prospectus was deemed
part of and included
in the registration
statement; and
(B)
Each prospectus
required to be filed
pursuant to Rule
424(b)(2), (b)(5), or
(b)(7) as part of a
registration
statement in reliance
on Rule 430B relating
to an offering made
pursuant to Rule
415(a)(1)(i), (vii),
or (x) for the
purpose of providing
the information
required by Section
10(a) of the
Securities Act of
1933 shall be deemed
to be part of and
included in the
registration
statement as of the
earlier of the date
such form of
prospectus is first
used after
effectiveness or the
date of the first
contract of sale of
securities in the
offering described in
the prospectus. As
provided in Rule
430B, for liability
purposes of the
issuer and any person
that is at that date
an underwriter, such
date shall be deemed
to be a new effective
date of the
registration
statement relating to
the securities in the
registration to which
that prospectus
relates, and the
offering of such
securities at that
time shall be deemed
to be the initial
bona fide offering
thereof.
Provided,
however
, that no
statement made in a
registration
statement or
prospectus that is
part of the
registration
statement or made in
a document
incorporated or
deemed incorporated
by reference into the
registration
statement or
prospectus that is
part of the
registration
statement will, as to
a purchaser with a
time of contract of
sale prior to such
effective date,
supersede or modify
any
-4-
Table of Contents
statement that
was made in the
registration
statement or
prospectus that was
part of the
registration
statement or made in
any such document
immediately prior to
such effective date;
or
(ii)
If the Registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each
prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part
of a registration statement relating to an
offering, other than registration statements
relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses
filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed
to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the date it is first used after
effectiveness.
Provided, however,
that no
statement made in a registration statement or
prospectus that is part of the registration
statement or made in a document incorporated or
deemed incorporated by reference into the
registration statement or prospectus that is
part of the registration statement will, as to a
purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior
to such first use, supersede or modify any
statement that was made in the registration
statement or prospectus that was part of the
registration statement or made in any such
document immediately prior to such date of first
use.
5.
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the Registrant under
the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial
distribution of securities:
The undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of
securities of the undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration
statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the
securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to
such purchasers by means of any of the following communications, the
undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be
considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i)
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the
undersigned Registrant relating to the offering
required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)
Any free writing prospectus relating to the
offering prepared by or on behalf of the
undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by
the undersigned Registrant;
(iii)
The portion of any other free writing prospectus
relating to the offering containing material
information about the undersigned Registrant or
its securities provided by or on behalf of the
undersigned Registrant; and
(iv)
Any other communication that is an offer in the
offering made by the undersigned Registrant to
the purchaser.
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 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.
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
provisions of the
Registrant's articles of incorporation or by-laws 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.
