ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

None.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Pursuant to Delaware law and the Company's Bylaws, as Amended and Restated
October 28, 2003 ("Bylaws"), the Company is required to indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to an action (other than
an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that such
person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or
was serving, at the Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) that are actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action; provided that such
person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the Company's best interests and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such
person's conduct was unlawful. Indemnification shall not be made for any claim
except to the extent that the adjudicating court (or the court in which the
action was brought) determines that, despite the adjudication of liability, such
person is entitled to indemnification for the expenses as the court deems
proper.

The determination as to whether a person seeking indemnification has met the
required standard of conduct is to be made (1) by a majority vote of a quorum of
disinterested members of the board of directors, or (2) by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, if such a quorum does not exist or if the
disinterested directors so direct, or (3) by the stockholders. The Company's
Bylaws also provide for mandatory indemnification of any director, officer,
employee or agent against expenses to the extent such person has been successful
in any proceeding covered by Delaware statute. In addition, the Bylaws also
permit the Company to pay expenses incurred by an officer or director in
defending an action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification may be made in
advance of its final disposition upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of the officer or director to repay the expenses if it is ultimately determined
that the person is not entitled to be indemnified. Delaware law and the
Company's Bylaws provide that indemnification and advancement of expenses set
forth above shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those
seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or
her in such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not
the Company would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability
under indemnification provisions of the Company's Bylaws.

The Company maintains a policy of directors and officers liability insurance.

The indemnification provisions contained in the Company's By-laws are expressly
permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware Corporation Law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the
opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

Not applicable.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference are set forth in
the attached Exhibit Index.

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 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;

              (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 paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
                    apply if the information required to be included in a
                    post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
                    periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities
                    and Exchange 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 of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall
               be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
               securities offered herein, 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 of 1933, each
          filing of the Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
          Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is
          incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be
          deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
          offered herein, 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 of 1933 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 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 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

None.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Pursuant to Delaware law and the Company's Bylaws, as Amended and Restated
October 28, 2003 ("Bylaws"), the Company is required to indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to an action (other than
an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that such
person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or
was serving, at the Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) that are actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action; provided that such
person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the Company's best interests and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such
person's conduct was unlawful. Indemnification shall not be made for any claim
except to the extent that the adjudicating court (or the court in which the
action was brought) determines that, despite the adjudication of liability, such
person is entitled to indemnification for the expenses as the court deems
proper.

The determination as to whether a person seeking indemnification has met the
required standard of conduct is to be made (1) by a majority vote of a quorum of
disinterested members of the board of directors, or (2) by independent legal
counsel in a written opinion, if such a quorum does not exist or if the
disinterested directors so direct, or (3) by the stockholders. The Company's
Bylaws also provide for mandatory indemnification of any director, officer,
employee or agent against expenses to the extent such person has been successful
in any proceeding covered by Delaware statute. In addition, the Bylaws also
permit the Company to pay expenses incurred by an officer or director in
defending an action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification may be made in
advance of its final disposition upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of the officer or director to repay the expenses if it is ultimately determined
that the person is not entitled to be indemnified. Delaware law and the
Company's Bylaws provide that indemnification and advancement of expenses set
forth above shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those
seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or
her in such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not
the Company would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability
under indemnification provisions of the Company's Bylaws.

The Company maintains a policy of directors and officers liability insurance.

The indemnification provisions contained in the Company's By-laws are expressly
permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware Corporation Law.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the
opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED

Not applicable.

ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference are set forth in
the attached Exhibit Index.

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 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;

              (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 paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
                    apply if the information required to be included in a
                    post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
                    periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Securities
                    and Exchange 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 of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall
               be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
               securities offered herein, 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 of 1933, each
          filing of the Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
          Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is
          incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be
          deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
          offered herein, 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 of 1933 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 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.

                                       4
