</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;) authorizes corporations to limit or
eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary
damages for breaches of directors&#146; fiduciary duties as directors. Our certificate of incorporation
includes provisions that indemnify, to the fullest extent allowable under the DGCL, the personal
liability of directors or officers for monetary damages for actions taken as a director or officer
of our company, or for serving at our request as a director or officer or another position at
another corporation or enterprise, as the case may be. Our certificate of incorporation also
provides that we must indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to our directors and officers,
subject to our receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as may be required under the
DGCL. We also carry directors&#146; and officers&#146; insurance to protect our company, our directors,
officers and certain employees for some liabilities.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation
may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary
duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative
litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might
otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. However, this provision will not limit or eliminate our
rights, or those of any stockholder, to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission
in the event of a breach of a director&#146;s duty of care. The provisions will not alter the liability
of directors under the federal securities laws. In addition, your investment may be adversely
affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, we pay the costs of settlement and
damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

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.

the high and low prices of the Registrant's Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange
consolidated reporting system on September 11, 2008, and is estimated solely for the purpose
of calculating the registration fee.

Pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act, the proposed maximum offering price per
share is based on the closing price on the final day of trading on July 22, 2008 of (i) 15,895
shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding but unexercised stock options granted under the

In addition, all documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), prior
to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been
sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated
by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed
document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes
such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed to constitute a
part of this Registration Statement, except as so modified or superseded.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") authorizes corporations to limit or
eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary
damages for breaches of directors' fiduciary duties as directors. Our certificate of incorporation
includes provisions that indemnify, to the fullest extent allowable under the DGCL, the personal
liability of directors or officers for monetary damages for actions taken as a director or officer
of our company, or for serving at our request as a director or officer or another position at
another corporation or enterprise, as the case may be. Our certificate of incorporation also
provides that we must indemnify and advance reasonable expenses to our directors and officers,
subject to our receipt of an undertaking from the indemnified party as may be required under the
DGCL. We also carry directors' and officers' insurance to protect our company, our directors,
officers and certain employees for some liabilities.
3
The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation
may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary
duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative
litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might
otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. However, this provision will not limit or eliminate our
rights, or those of any stockholder, to seek non-monetary relief such as injunction or rescission
in the event of a breach of a director's duty of care. The provisions will not alter the liability
of directors under the federal securities laws. In addition, your investment may be adversely
affected to the extent that, in a class action or direct suit, we pay the costs of settlement and
damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
The Exhibits listed on the accompanying Exhibit Index are filed as part hereof, or
incorporated by reference into, this Registration Statement.
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 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; and
(iii)
any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement.
(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 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 this 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.
