</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company is a Delaware corporation. Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
generally provides that a corporation is empowered to indemnify any person who is made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving, at the request of
the Company, in any of such capacities of another corporation or other enterprise, if such
director, officer, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section&nbsp;145 describes
in detail the right of the Company to indemnify any such person. The Certificate of Incorporation
of the Company and indemnification agreements between the Company and each of its officers and
directors provide generally for indemnification of all such directors, officers and agents to the
fullest extent permitted under law. The Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the
liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted under law. The Company&#146;s directors and
officers currently are covered by directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability insurance.
</DIV>

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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation
of Registration Fee&#148; table in the effective registration statement;

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
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.

All documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Sections

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the shares of Common Stock being sold in this offering will be passed upon for
the Company by David M. Sudbury, general counsel of the Company.
The
consolidated financial statements and management's report on the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of
August 31, 2006, incorporated in this
registration statement by reference from the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended August 31, 2006 have been audited by Deloitte &
Touche LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, as stated
in their reports, which are incorporated herein by reference, and have been so incorporated in
reliance upon the reports of such firm given upon their authority as experts in accounting and
auditing.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company is a Delaware corporation. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
generally provides that a corporation is empowered to indemnify any person who is made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or is or was serving, at the request of
the Company, in any of such capacities of another corporation or other enterprise, if such
director, officer, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section 145 describes
in detail the right of the Company to indemnify any such person. The Certificate of Incorporation
of the Company and indemnification agreements between the Company and each of its officers and
directors provide generally for indemnification of all such directors, officers and agents to the
fullest extent permitted under law. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the
liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted under law. The Company's directors and
officers currently are covered by directors' and officers' liability insurance.
For the undertaking with respect to indemnification, see Item 9 herein.
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;
(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. 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 a 20% 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;
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 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.
(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 the 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 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to 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
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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,

authorized.
