proceeding because the individual is or was a director or officer against liability incurred in the
proceeding to the full extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (&#147;NRS&#148;). As permitted by
the NRS, the registrant will indemnify a director or officer if the individual acted in good faith
in a manner which he 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 conduct was unlawful.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The NRS does not permit indemnification as to any claim, issue or matter as to which such
person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the registrant, or
for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in
which the action or suit was brought determines upon application that in view of all of the
circumstance of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses as the court deems proper.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The registrant has a Directors&#146; and Officers&#146; Liability Insurance Policy that provides
coverage sufficiently broad to permit indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities
(including reimbursement for expenses incurred) 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 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.

this registration statement shall also cover any additional shares of common stock which become
issuable under the plan to which this registration relates by reason of any anti-dilution
provisions, stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or any other similar transaction or
action taken effected without the receipt of consideration which results in an increase in the
number of the registrant's outstanding shares of common stock.
(2) Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the registration fee, pursuant
to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act. The computation with respect to unissued awards is based
upon the average high and low sale prices of the registrant's common stock as reported on the
Nasdaq National Market on January 6, 2005.

The registrant's prospectus filed on December 10, 2004

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
Table of Contents
The registrant's Bylaws provide that it will indemnify any individual made a party to a
proceeding because the individual is or was a director or officer against liability incurred in the
proceeding to the full extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS"). As permitted by
the NRS, the registrant will indemnify a director or officer if the individual acted in good faith
in a manner which he 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 conduct was unlawful.
The NRS does not permit indemnification as to any claim, issue or matter as to which such
person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be liable to the registrant, or
for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in
which the action or suit was brought determines upon application that in view of all of the
circumstance of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses as the court deems proper.
The registrant has a Directors' and Officers' Liability Insurance Policy that provides
coverage sufficiently broad to permit indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities
(including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act.

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:
Table of Contents
(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) of this section do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and 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 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 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.
Table of Contents
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
(and, where applicable), each filing of an employee benefit plan
=
s annual report
pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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 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.
