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 such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the

director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person 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 cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
Delaware corporation 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 such person acted in any of the capacities set forth
above, against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such
action or suit if he or she acted under similar standards, except that no
indemnification may 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 court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view
of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to be indemnified for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law further provides that
(i)&nbsp;to the extent that a former or present director or officer of a corporation
has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred
to in subsections (a)&nbsp;and (b)&nbsp;or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection
therewith; (ii)&nbsp;indemnification provided for by Section&nbsp;145 shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled;
and (iii)&nbsp;the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
present or former director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or
any person who at the request of the corporation was serving in such capacity
for another entity against any liability asserted against such person and
incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status
as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him
or her against such liabilities under Section&nbsp;145.</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As permitted by Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
our Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director shall not be liable
to the Company or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director. However, such provision does not eliminate or limit the
liability of a director for acts or omissions not in good faith or for
breaching his or her duty of loyalty, engaging in intentional misconduct or
knowingly violating a law, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase
which was illegal, or obtaining an improper personal benefit. In addition, our
Bylaws contain provisions indemnifying the directors, officers, employees and
agents of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Any indemnification under our Bylaws is subject to a prior
determination by a majority of the directors of the Company who are not party
to the underlying action that the person seeking indemnification has met the
applicable standard of conduct.</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the provisions of our Bylaws, expenses incurred by an officer or
director in defending a civil or criminal suit or proceeding shall be paid by
the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person seeking
indemnification to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or
she is not entitled to be indemnified. The Company has entered into indemnity
agreements with certain officers and directors setting forth the terms
described herein. These indemnity agreements provide that the Company is not
obligated to advance expenses in an action against the Company by the
indemnified officer or director unless the action seeks to enforce the
indemnity agreement.</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company may, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any officer,
director, employee or agent against any liability which may be asserted against
such person.</FONT>

by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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

policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.</FONT>

Item 4.       Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5.       Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6.       Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
Delaware corporation 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,
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 such person 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 or enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person 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 cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a
Delaware corporation 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 such person acted in any of the capacities set forth
above, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such
action or suit if he or she acted under similar standards, except that no
indemnification may 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 court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view
of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to be indemnified for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.

Table of Contents
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law further provides that
(i) to the extent that a former or present director or officer of a corporation
has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred
to in subsections (a) and (b) or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection
therewith; (ii) indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled;
and (iii) the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
present or former director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or
any person who at the request of the corporation was serving in such capacity
for another entity against any liability asserted against such person and
incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status
as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him
or her against such liabilities under Section 145.
As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
our Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director shall not be liable
to the Company or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director. However, such provision does not eliminate or limit the
liability of a director for acts or omissions not in good faith or for
breaching his or her duty of loyalty, engaging in intentional misconduct or
knowingly violating a law, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase
which was illegal, or obtaining an improper personal benefit. In addition, our
Bylaws contain provisions indemnifying the directors, officers, employees and
agents of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Any indemnification under our Bylaws is subject to a prior
determination by a majority of the directors of the Company who are not party
to the underlying action that the person seeking indemnification has met the
applicable standard of conduct.
Under the provisions of our Bylaws, expenses incurred by an officer or
director in defending a civil or criminal suit or proceeding shall be paid by
the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or
proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person seeking
indemnification to repay such amounts if it is ultimately determined that he or
she is not entitled to be indemnified. The Company has entered into indemnity
agreements with certain officers and directors setting forth the terms
described herein. These indemnity agreements provide that the Company is not
obligated to advance expenses in an action against the Company by the
indemnified officer or director unless the action seeks to enforce the
indemnity agreement.
The Company may, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any officer,
director, employee or agent against any liability which may be asserted against
such person.
Item 7.       Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.

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, as amended (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 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
and 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; (iii) To include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this Registration
5
Table of Contents
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 periodic reports filed by the Registrant 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, 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; and
(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
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
been advised that in the opinion of the Commission 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 Company of expenses incurred or paid
by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.
