<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a
corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation
and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against
amounts paid 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.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;EIGHTH of the Registrant&#146;s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
(the &#147;Certificate of Incorporation&#148;) provides that no director of the Registrant shall be
personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that the Delaware General Corporation Law
prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;NINTH of the Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director or officer of the
Registrant (a)&nbsp;shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys&#146;
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any litigation
or other legal proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Registrant) brought, or
threatened to be brought, against him by virtue of his position as, or agreement to become, a
director or officer of the Registrant or by virtue of his serving, or agreeing to serve, at the
request of the Registrant, as a director, officer, or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, a
corporation, trust or other enterprise, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to
any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful and
(b)&nbsp;shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) and
amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any action by or in the right of the
Registrant brought, or threatened to be brought, against him by virtue of his position as, or
agreement to become, a director or officer of the Registrant or by virtue of his serving, or
agreeing to serve, at the request of the Registrant, as a director, officer, or trustee of, or in a
similar capacity with, a corporation, trust or other enterprise, if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant,
except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant, unless a court determines that, despite
such adjudication but in view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to indemnification of
such expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a director or officer has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, the dismissal of an action
without prejudice, he is required to be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees) incurred in connection therewith. Expenses shall be advanced to a
director or officer at his request, provided that he undertakes to repay the amount advanced if it
is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant is required to provide the indemnification described herein unless the officer
or director has not met the applicable standard of conduct required for indemnification. Whether
the applicable standard of conduct has been met shall be determined in each instance by (a)&nbsp;a
majority vote of the directors of the Registrant consisting of persons who are not at that time
parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (&#147;disinterested directors&#148;), whether or not a
quorum, (b)&nbsp;a majority vote of a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote
of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c)&nbsp;a majority vote of a quorum of the
outstanding shares of stock of all classes entitled to vote for directors, voting as a single
class, which quorum shall consist of stockholders who are not at that time parties to the action,
suit or proceeding in question, (d)&nbsp;independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by
law, be regular legal counsel to the Registrant), or (e)&nbsp;a court of competent jurisdiction. In the
event of a determination that the director or officer did not meet the applicable standard of
conduct required for indemnification, or if the Registrant fails to make a disposition within 60
days after written request for indemnification or advancement of expenses to the Registrant is made
by such person, such person is permitted to petition the court to make an independent determination
as to whether such person is entitled to indemnification. As a condition precedent to the right of
indemnification, the director or officer must give the Registrant notice of the action for which
indemnity is sought and the Registrant has the right to participate in such action or assume the
defense thereof.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;NINTH of the Certificate of Incorporation further provides that the indemnification
provided therein is not exclusive, and provides that in the event that the Delaware General
Corporation Law is amended to expand the indemnification permitted to directors or officers, the
Registrant must indemnify those persons to the fullest extent permitted by such law as so amended.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant has purchased directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance that would indemnify
its directors and officers against damages arising out of certain kinds of claims that might be
made against them based on their negligent acts or omissions while acting in their capacity as
such.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant has entered into
an indemnification agreement with each of its directors. Pursuant to these agreements, the Registrant has agreed to indemnify each such director
for any damages, including expenses, incurred by the director in connection with any civil or
criminal action or proceeding as a result of any action or inaction of the director as a member of
the Registrant&#146;s board of directors or the board of any subsidiary of the Registrant, or at the
request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Registrant or
any other entity, provided that the director 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 Registrant and, with
respect to criminal actions, that the director had no reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to these agreements, the Registrant has also agreed to indemnify each director for expenses and amounts paid in settlement that are directly or indirectly
incurred by the director in connection with an action by or in the right of the Registrant to which
the director is a party by reason of the director&#146;s service (i)&nbsp;on the Registrant&#146;s board of
directors, (ii)&nbsp;on the board of any subsidiary of the Registrant, or (iii)&nbsp;at the request of the
Registrant as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Registrant or any other
entity, provided that (a)&nbsp;the director 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 Registrant and (b)&nbsp;the director may
not be indemnified for liability to the Registrant unless the court in such action determines that
the director is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Further, these indemnification agreements obligate the Registrant to advance expenses incurred
by each such director within 10&nbsp;days of a request by the director, which expenses are to be repaid
only in the event it is ultimately determined that the director is not entitled to indemnification.
Such advances are
to be made without regard to the financial ability of the director to make such repayment, and
are to be unsecured and interest free.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to these agreements, the director must give the Registrant notice of the
action for which indemnity is sought, and the Registrant has the right to participate in such
action or assume the defense thereof. If the Registrant fails to make full payment of an
indemnification claim within 45&nbsp;days after such payment is claimed by the director, the director
may bring an action against the Registrant to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. The
Registrant may assert, as a defense against such claim, that the director has failed to meet the
standards of conduct which make it permissible under the law for the Registrant to indemnify the
director for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense is on the Registrant, and
the director is entitled to receive payment of his or her expenses in the interim.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant has further agreed to indemnify each such director to the fullest extent
permitted by law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by the
indemnification agreement.

<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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; and



<P align="left" style="margin-left:3%; font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not

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 Securities and Exchange 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 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.

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
- 1 -
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP has opined as to the legality of the securities
being offered by this registration statement.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a
corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation
and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against
amounts paid 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.
Article EIGHTH of the Registrant's Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
(the "Certificate of Incorporation") provides that no director of the Registrant shall be
personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that the Delaware General Corporation Law
prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty.
Article NINTH of the Certificate of Incorporation provides that a director or officer of the
Registrant (a) shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any litigation
or other legal proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Registrant) brought, or
threatened to be brought, against him by virtue of his position as, or agreement to become, a
director or officer of the Registrant or by virtue of his serving, or agreeing to serve, at the
request of the Registrant, as a director, officer, or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, a
corporation, trust or other enterprise, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to
any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful and
(b) shall be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses (including attorneys' fees) and
amounts paid in settlement incurred in connection with any action by or in the right of the
Registrant brought, or threatened to be brought, against him by virtue of his position as, or
agreement to become, a director or officer of the Registrant or by virtue of his serving, or
agreeing to serve, at the request of the Registrant, as a director, officer, or trustee of, or in a
similar capacity with, a corporation, trust or other enterprise, if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant,
except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any matter as to which such person
shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Registrant, unless a court determines that, despite
such adjudication but in view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to indemnification of
such expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a director or officer has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, including, without limitation, the dismissal of an action
without prejudice, he is required to be indemnified by the Registrant against all expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection therewith. Expenses shall be advanced to a
director or officer at his request, provided that he undertakes to repay the amount advanced if it
is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification for such expenses.
- 2 -
The Registrant is required to provide the indemnification described herein unless the officer
or director has not met the applicable standard of conduct required for indemnification. Whether
the applicable standard of conduct has been met shall be determined in each instance by (a) a
majority vote of the directors of the Registrant consisting of persons who are not at that time
parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question ("disinterested directors"), whether or not a
quorum, (b) a majority vote of a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote
of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) a majority vote of a quorum of the
outstanding shares of stock of all classes entitled to vote for directors, voting as a single
class, which quorum shall consist of stockholders who are not at that time parties to the action,
suit or proceeding in question, (d) independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by
law, be regular legal counsel to the Registrant), or (e) a court of competent jurisdiction. In the
event of a determination that the director or officer did not meet the applicable standard of
conduct required for indemnification, or if the Registrant fails to make a disposition within 60
days after written request for indemnification or advancement of expenses to the Registrant is made
by such person, such person is permitted to petition the court to make an independent determination
as to whether such person is entitled to indemnification. As a condition precedent to the right of
indemnification, the director or officer must give the Registrant notice of the action for which
indemnity is sought and the Registrant has the right to participate in such action or assume the
defense thereof.
Article NINTH of the Certificate of Incorporation further provides that the indemnification
provided therein is not exclusive, and provides that in the event that the Delaware General
Corporation Law is amended to expand the indemnification permitted to directors or officers, the
Registrant must indemnify those persons to the fullest extent permitted by such law as so amended.
The Registrant has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance that would indemnify
its directors and officers against damages arising out of certain kinds of claims that might be
made against them based on their negligent acts or omissions while acting in their capacity as
such.
The Registrant has entered into
an indemnification agreement with each of its directors. Pursuant to these agreements, the Registrant has agreed to indemnify each such director
for any damages, including expenses, incurred by the director in connection with any civil or
criminal action or proceeding as a result of any action or inaction of the director as a member of
the Registrant's board of directors or the board of any subsidiary of the Registrant, or at the
request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Registrant or
any other entity, provided that the director 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 Registrant and, with
respect to criminal actions, that the director had no reasonable cause to believe his or her
conduct was unlawful.
Pursuant to these agreements, the Registrant has also agreed to indemnify each director for expenses and amounts paid in settlement that are directly or indirectly
incurred by the director in connection with an action by or in the right of the Registrant to which
the director is a party by reason of the director's service (i) on the Registrant's board of
directors, (ii) on the board of any subsidiary of the Registrant, or (iii) at the request of the
Registrant as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of the Registrant or any other
entity, provided that (a) the director 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 Registrant and (b) the director may
not be indemnified for liability to the Registrant unless the court in such action determines that
the director is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification.
Further, these indemnification agreements obligate the Registrant to advance expenses incurred
by each such director within 10 days of a request by the director, which expenses are to be repaid
only in the event it is ultimately determined that the director is not entitled to indemnification.
Such advances are
to be made without regard to the financial ability of the director to make such repayment, and
are to be unsecured and interest free.
- 3 -
Pursuant to these agreements, the director must give the Registrant notice of the
action for which indemnity is sought, and the Registrant has the right to participate in such
action or assume the defense thereof. If the Registrant fails to make full payment of an
indemnification claim within 45 days after such payment is claimed by the director, the director
may bring an action against the Registrant to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. The
Registrant may assert, as a defense against such claim, that the director has failed to meet the
standards of conduct which make it permissible under the law for the Registrant to indemnify the
director for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense is on the Registrant, and
the director is entitled to receive payment of his or her expenses in the interim.
The Registrant has further agreed to indemnify each such director to the fullest extent
permitted by law, notwithstanding that such indemnification is not specifically authorized by the
indemnification agreement.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits.
The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings.
1.
Item
512(a)
of Regulation S-K
. 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 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; and
(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 (i) and (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 Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act 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.
- 4 -
(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.
2.
Item
512(b)
of Regulation S-K
. 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.
3.
Item
512(h)
of Regulation S-K
. 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 Securities and Exchange 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 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.
