laws of Bermuda. Section&nbsp;98 of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 (the &#147;Bermuda Companies Act&#148;) provides generally that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability which by virtue of any rule
of law would otherwise be imposed on them in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, except in cases where such liability arises from fraud or dishonesty of which such director, officer or auditor may be guilty in
relation to the company. Section&nbsp;98 further provides that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability incurred by them in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is
awarded in their favor or in which they are acquitted or granted relief by the Supreme Court of Bermuda pursuant to section 281 of the Bermuda Companies Act. </P>

(including a director) or auditor for the costs, charges and expenses incurred by the officer (including a director) or auditor in defending any civil or criminal proceedings against them, on condition that the officer (including a director) or
auditor shall repay the advance if any allegation of fraud or dishonesty is proved against them. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Registrant has adopted provisions in
its bye-laws that provide that it shall indemnify its officers and directors in respect of their actions and omissions, except in respect of their fraud or dishonesty. The Registrant&#146;s bye-laws provide that the shareholders waive all claims or
rights of action that they might have, individually or in right of the Registrant, against any of the Registrant&#146;s directors or officers for any act or failure to act in the performance of such director&#146;s or officer&#146;s duties, except
in respect of any fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer or any claims of violations of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act the waiver of which would be prohibited by Section&nbsp;14 of the Securities Act and Section&nbsp;29(a) of the
Exchange Act. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:8%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;98A of the Bermuda Companies Act permits the Registrant to purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of
any officer or director in respect of any loss or liability attaching to him in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which the director or officer may be guilty in relation to the Registrant of any subsidiary
thereof, whether or not the Registrant may otherwise indemnify such officer or director. The Registrant has purchased and intends to maintain a directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability policy for such purpose. </P>

Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation of Registration Fee&#148; table in the

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 Act and will be governed by the

Description of Securities.

Item 5.

Not applicable.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Registrant is incorporated under the
laws of Bermuda. Section 98 of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981 (the "Bermuda Companies Act") provides generally that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability which by virtue of any rule
of law would otherwise be imposed on them in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, except in cases where such liability arises from fraud or dishonesty of which such director, officer or auditor may be guilty in
relation to the company. Section 98 further provides that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability incurred by them in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is
awarded in their favor or in which they are acquitted or granted relief by the Supreme Court of Bermuda pursuant to section 281 of the Bermuda Companies Act.
2
Section 98 of the Bermuda Companies Act further provides that a company may advance moneys to an officer
(including a director) or auditor for the costs, charges and expenses incurred by the officer (including a director) or auditor in defending any civil or criminal proceedings against them, on condition that the officer (including a director) or
auditor shall repay the advance if any allegation of fraud or dishonesty is proved against them.
The Registrant has adopted provisions in
its bye-laws that provide that it shall indemnify its officers and directors in respect of their actions and omissions, except in respect of their fraud or dishonesty. The Registrant's bye-laws provide that the shareholders waive all claims or
rights of action that they might have, individually or in right of the Registrant, against any of the Registrant's directors or officers for any act or failure to act in the performance of such director's or officer's duties, except
in respect of any fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer or any claims of violations of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act the waiver of which would be prohibited by Section 14 of the Securities Act and Section 29(a) of the
Exchange Act.
Section 98A of the Bermuda Companies Act permits the Registrant to purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of
any officer or director in respect of any loss or liability attaching to him in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which the director or officer may be guilty in relation to the Registrant of any subsidiary
thereof, whether or not the Registrant may otherwise indemnify such officer or director. The Registrant has purchased and intends to maintain a directors' and officers' liability policy for such purpose.

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;
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 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 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 20 percent 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) of this section 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 the 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 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.
(h) 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 Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the 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) 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 Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.
