</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the registrant has included in its
Certificate of Incorporation provisions regarding the limitation of liability and indemnification
of officers and directors of the registrant. Articles NINTH and TENTH of the registrant&#146;s
Certificate of Incorporation provide as follows:
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;NINTH.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability: (a)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders; (b)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law; or (d)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived any improper
personal benefit. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to authorize corporate
action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the
liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest
extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended. Any repeal or
modification of this paragraph shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a
director of the corporation existing at the time of the repeal or modification.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is
involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (a &#147;proceeding&#148;), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he
or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is
or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such
proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or
agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent,
shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent authorized
by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended
(but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than that law permitted the
corporation to provide before the amendment) against all expenses, liabilities and losses
including, without limitation, attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and
penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by
such person in connection therewith. Such indemnification shall continue as to a person who
has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of
his or her heirs, executors and administrators. However, the corporation shall indemnify
any such person seeking indemnity in connection with an action, suit or proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by that person only if that action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof)
was authorized by the board of directors of the corporation. The rights set forth in this
Article&nbsp;TENTH shall be contract rights and shall include the right to be paid expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition. However, the
payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer of the corporation in his or her
capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is
rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service
to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding shall be
made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately
that such director or officer is not entitled to be so indemnified.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. RIGHT OF CLAIMANT TO BRING SUIT
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If a claim under Paragraph&nbsp;A of this Article&nbsp;TENTH is not paid in full by the
corporation within 90&nbsp;days after a written claim has been received by the corporation, the
claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to
be paid the expense of prosecuting that claim. It shall be a defense to any such action
(other than an action an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in
defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking,
if any, has been tendered to this corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards
of conduct which make it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the
corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. However, the burden of
proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have
made a determination before the commencement of such action that indemnification of the
claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by
the corporation (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or its
stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable
standard of conduct.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The rights conferred on any person by Paragraphs A and B of this Article&nbsp;TENTH shall
not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter may acquire
under any statute,

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 3%">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any repeal or modification of this Article&nbsp;TENTH shall not adversely affect any right
of indemnification or advancement of expenses of a director or officer, employee or agent of
the corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any
action or omission occurring before the repeal or modification.
</DIV>

separate and distinct. If any paragraph, sentence, term or provision is held to be invalid
or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other such paragraph, sentence, term or provision. To the
extent required in order to make any such paragraph, sentence, term or provision of this
Article&nbsp;TENTH valid or enforceable, the corporation shall, and the indemnitee or potential
indemnitee may, request a court of competent jurisdiction to modify the paragraph, sentence,
term or provision in order to preserve its validity and provide the broadest possible
indemnification permitted by applicable law.

director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss of the type
referred to in this Article&nbsp;TENTH, whether or not the corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under applicable law.

employee or agent of the corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article

to such information in the registration statement.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;that, for purposes 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.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant&#146;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.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar as the 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 a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the question has
already been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of 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 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the registrant has included in its
Certificate of Incorporation provisions regarding the limitation of liability and indemnification
of officers and directors of the registrant. Articles NINTH and TENTH of the registrant's
Certificate of Incorporation provide as follows:
NINTH.
No director of the corporation shall be personally liable to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability: (a) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders; (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c) under Section 174 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law; or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived any improper
personal benefit. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to authorize corporate
action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the
liability of a director of the corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest
extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as so amended. Any repeal or
modification of this paragraph shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a
director of the corporation existing at the time of the repeal or modification.

TENTH.
A. RIGHT TO INDEMNIFICATION
Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is
involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (a "proceeding"), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he
or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is
or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director or officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such
proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or
agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent,
shall be indemnified and held harmless by the corporation to the fullest extent authorized
by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended
(but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than that law permitted the
corporation to provide before the amendment) against all expenses, liabilities and losses
including, without limitation, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and
penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by
such person in connection therewith. Such indemnification shall continue as to a person who
has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of
his or her heirs, executors and administrators. However, the corporation shall indemnify
any such person seeking indemnity in connection with an action, suit or proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by that person only if that action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof)
was authorized by the board of directors of the corporation. The rights set forth in this
Article TENTH shall be contract rights and shall include the right to be paid expenses
incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition. However, the
payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer of the corporation in his or her
capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is
rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service
to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding shall be
made only upon delivery to the corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately
that such director or officer is not entitled to be so indemnified.
B. RIGHT OF CLAIMANT TO BRING SUIT
If a claim under Paragraph A of this Article TENTH is not paid in full by the
corporation within 90 days after a written claim has been received by the corporation, the
claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the corporation to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to
be paid the expense of prosecuting that claim. It shall be a defense to any such action
(other than an action an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in
defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking,
if any, has been tendered to this corporation) that the claimant has not met the standards
of conduct which make it permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the
corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. However, the burden of
proving such defense shall be on the corporation. Neither the failure of the corporation
(including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have
made a determination before the commencement of such action that indemnification of the
claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of
conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual determination by
the corporation (including its board of directors, independent legal counsel or its
stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable
standard of conduct.
C. NON EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS
The rights conferred on any person by Paragraphs A and B of this Article TENTH shall
not be exclusive of any other rights which such person may have or hereafter may acquire
under any statute,
II-2
Table of Contents
provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, by law, agreement, vote of stockholders
or of disinterested directors, or otherwise.
D. EXPENSES AS A WITNESS
To the extent that any director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation is by
reason of such position, or a position with another entity at the request of the
corporation, a witness in any action, suit or proceeding, he or she shall be indemnified and
held harmless against all costs and expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her
on his or her behalf in connection therewith.
E. INDEMNITY AGREEMENTS
The corporation may enter into agreements with any director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation or any person who serves at the request of the corporation as a director,
officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or other enterprise, providing for
indemnification to the fullest extent permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law
and the corporation's Certificate of Incorporation.
F. EFFECT OF REPEAL OR MODIFICATION
Any repeal or modification of this Article TENTH shall not adversely affect any right
of indemnification or advancement of expenses of a director or officer, employee or agent of
the corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any
action or omission occurring before the repeal or modification.
G. SEPARABILITY
Each and every paragraph, sentence, term and provision of this Article TENTH is
separate and distinct. If any paragraph, sentence, term or provision is held to be invalid
or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other such paragraph, sentence, term or provision. To the
extent required in order to make any such paragraph, sentence, term or provision of this
Article TENTH valid or enforceable, the corporation shall, and the indemnitee or potential
indemnitee may, request a court of competent jurisdiction to modify the paragraph, sentence,
term or provision in order to preserve its validity and provide the broadest possible
indemnification permitted by applicable law.
H. INSURANCE
The corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss of the type
referred to in this Article TENTH, whether or not the corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under applicable law.
I. INDEMNIFICATION OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS OF THE CORPORATION
The corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the board of
directors, grant rights to indemnification, and to the advancement of expenses to any
employee or agent of the corporation to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article
with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of
the corporation.

Undertakings
.
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 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.
(2) that, for purposes 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.
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.
Insofar as the 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 a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered hereunder, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the question has
already been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of 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.
