ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

     Constantine Alexander, a partner in the law firm Nutter, McClennen & Fish,
LLP, currently serves as Secretary of the Company. Nutter, McClennen & Fish, LLP
serves as counsel to the Company, and has rendered a legal opinion with respect
to the validity of the shares being offered pursuant to this Registration
Statement.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     The Company is a Delaware corporation. Reference is made to Section 145 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, which provides that a
corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he
or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145 further provides that a corporation similarly may indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or
she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is
or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or
she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court
of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall
determine upon application that, despite an adjudication of liability but in
view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation
further provides that the Company shall indemnify its directors and officers to
the fullest extent permitted by the law of the State of Delaware.

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company's
Directors shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that
exculpation from liability is not permitted under the Delaware General
Corporation Law as in effect at the time such liability is determined.

     The Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws also provide that each person
who was or is made party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact
that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company (or is or was
serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of any other
enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans) shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company, to the full extent permitted by
Delaware law, as in effect from

                                       -3-

<PAGE>   4



time to time, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection with the investigation, preparation to defend or
defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim. The Company's By-laws allow
for similar rights of indemnification to be afforded, in the Company's
discretion, to its employees and agents.

     The rights to indemnification and the payment of expenses provided by the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws do not apply to any action, suit,
proceeding or claim initiated by or on behalf of a person otherwise entitled to
the benefit of such provisions. Any person seeking indemnification under the
By-laws shall be deemed to have met the standard of conduct required for such
indemnification unless the contrary shall be established. Any repeal or
modification of such indemnification provisions shall not adversely affect any
right or protection of a director or officer with respect to any conduct of such
director or officer occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

     The Company maintains an indemnification insurance policy covering all
directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries.

ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

     Not applicable.

ITEM 8.  EXHIBITS.

     See the exhibit index immediately preceding the exhibits attached hereto.

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 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.

          (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 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 that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered hereby, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.


                                       -4-

     (b) 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 Delaware General Corporation
Law and the registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and 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 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.

ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

     Constantine Alexander, a partner in the law firm Nutter, McClennen & Fish,
LLP, currently serves as Secretary of the Company. Nutter, McClennen & Fish, LLP
serves as counsel to the Company, and has rendered a legal opinion with respect
to the validity of the shares being offered pursuant to this Registration
Statement.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     The Company is a Delaware corporation. Reference is made to Section 145 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, which provides that a
corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party to or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he
or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith
and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145 further provides that a corporation similarly may indemnify any
person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he or
she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is
or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or
she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any
claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court
of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall
determine upon application that, despite an adjudication of liability but in
view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such
other court shall deem proper. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation
further provides that the Company shall indemnify its directors and officers to
the fullest extent permitted by the law of the State of Delaware.

     The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company's
Directors shall not be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that
exculpation from liability is not permitted under the Delaware General
Corporation Law as in effect at the time such liability is determined.

     The Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws also provide that each person
who was or is made party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact
that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company (or is or was
serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of any other
enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans) shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company, to the full extent permitted by
Delaware law, as in effect from

                                       -3-

time to time, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection with the investigation, preparation to defend or
defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim. The Company's By-laws allow
for similar rights of indemnification to be afforded, in the Company's
discretion, to its employees and agents.

     The rights to indemnification and the payment of expenses provided by the
Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws do not apply to any action, suit,
proceeding or claim initiated by or on behalf of a person otherwise entitled to
the benefit of such provisions. Any person seeking indemnification under the
By-laws shall be deemed to have met the standard of conduct required for such
indemnification unless the contrary shall be established. Any repeal or
modification of such indemnification provisions shall not adversely affect any
right or protection of a director or officer with respect to any conduct of such
director or officer occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

     The Company maintains an indemnification insurance policy covering all
directors and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries.

ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

     Not applicable.

ITEM 8.  EXHIBITS.

     See the exhibit index immediately preceding the exhibits attached hereto.

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 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.

          (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 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 that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered hereby, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

                                       -4-

     (b) 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 Delaware General Corporation
Law and the registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and 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 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.
