</P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT size=2>Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law the Company has broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act. The Company&#146;s By-laws require the Company to indemnify its directors and executive officers, and permit the Company to indemnify its other officers, employees and other agents, to the extent permitted
by Delaware law. Under the Company&#146;s By-laws, indemnified parties are entitled to indemnification for negligence, gross negligence and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by law. The By-laws also require the Company to advance litigation
expenses in the case of stockholder derivative actions or other actions, against an undertaking by the indemnified party to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification.</FONT>
</P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT size=2>The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. Such indemnity agreements contain provisions which are in some respects broader
than the specific indemnification provisions contained in Delaware law.</FONT>

(a)
The Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 and related prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act")
(File No. 333-41302).
(b)
All other reports filed pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the annual reports, the prospectus or the registration statement referred to in (a) above.
(c)

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 herein and to be a part of this registration statement from the date of the filing of

INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
The legality of the common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Cooley Godward LLP, San Francisco, California. An investment partnership associated with Cooley Godward
LLP owns 32,885 shares of our common stock.
INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law the Company has broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act. The Company's By-laws require the Company to indemnify its directors and executive officers, and permit the Company to indemnify its other officers, employees and other agents, to the extent permitted
by Delaware law. Under the Company's By-laws, indemnified parties are entitled to indemnification for negligence, gross negligence and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by law. The By-laws also require the Company to advance litigation
expenses in the case of stockholder derivative actions or other actions, against an undertaking by the indemnified party to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the indemnified party is not entitled to indemnification.
The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. Such indemnity agreements contain provisions which are in some respects broader
than the specific indemnification provisions contained in Delaware law.

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) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) 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)(i) and (a)(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 by the issuer pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference herein.
(b)
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 herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
2
(c)
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.
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 (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 herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.
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 agai
nst public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
