and expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to
be made a party by reason of such position, if such person shall have acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
and, in any criminal proceeding, if such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful; provided that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no
indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the adjudicating court determines that
such indemnification is proper under the circumstances.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in
its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable
to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;for unlawful payments of dividends or
unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions, or (iv)&nbsp;for any transactions from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant&#146;s certificate of
incorporation provides for such limitation of liability.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;Seventh of the Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
&#147;Certificate&#148;) provides that to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, a director of the
corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ARTICLE V, Section&nbsp;1 of the Registrant&#146;s Restated Bylaws (the &#147;Restated Bylaws&#148;) provides
that, subject to board approval, the corporation shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by,
and in the manner permissible under the DGCL, any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to
an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that such person or such person&#146;s testator or intestate is or was a director or officer of the
corporation or any predecessor of the corporation, or served any other enterprise as a director or
officer at the request of the corporation or any predecessor of the corporation. The rights of
indemnification under the Restated Bylaws are not exclusive of any other rights to which any
director or officer of the corporation may be entitled apart from the provisions of Article&nbsp;V.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and
executive officers, and intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and
executive officers in the future. These agreements may require the Registrant, among other things,
to indemnify such directors and officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of
their status or service and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding
against them as to which they could be indemnified.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The general effect of the foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances in which an
officer or director of the Registrant may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing
liabilities and expenses.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to the indemnification provided for in the Registrant&#146;s Certificate and Restated
Bylaws, the Registrant has purchased directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance which would
insure the Registrant&#146;s directors and officers against certain liabilities which might be incurred
in connection with the performance of their duties.

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

to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or
unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions, or (iv) for any transactions from
which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant's certificate of
incorporation provides for such limitation of liability.
Article Seventh of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the
"Certificate") provides that to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, a director of the
corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
ARTICLE V, Section 1 of the Registrant's Restated Bylaws (the "Restated Bylaws") provides
that, subject to board approval, the corporation shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by,
and in the manner permissible under the DGCL, any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to
an action or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that such person or such person's testator or intestate is or was a director or officer of the
corporation or any predecessor of the corporation, or served any other enterprise as a director or
officer at the request of the corporation or any predecessor of the corporation. The rights of
indemnification under the Restated Bylaws are not exclusive of any other rights to which any
director or officer of the corporation may be entitled apart from the provisions of Article V.
The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and
executive officers, and intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and
executive officers in the future. These agreements may require the Registrant, among other things,
to indemnify such directors and officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of
their status or service and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding
against them as to which they could be indemnified.
The general effect of the foregoing provisions may be to reduce the circumstances in which an
officer or director of the Registrant may be required to bear the economic burden of the foregoing
liabilities and expenses.
In addition to the indemnification provided for in the Registrant's Certificate and Restated
Bylaws, the Registrant has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance which would
insure the Registrant's directors and officers against certain liabilities which might be incurred
in connection with the performance of their duties.

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 factors 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 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 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, 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 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.
(c)
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 SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
