damages for an act or omission in the director&#146;s capacity as a director, except
for liability (i)&nbsp;for breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its
shareholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;for a
transaction for which the director received an improper benefit, whether or not
the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of the director&#146;s
office, or (iv)&nbsp;for an act or omission for which the liability of the
director is expressly provided by an applicable statute. &#160;In addition, Article&nbsp;2.02-1 of the TBCA (&#147;Article&nbsp;2.02-1&#148;),
the Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation and the Company&#146;s By-laws (the &#147;By-laws&#148;),
under certain circumstances, provide for the indemnification of the Company&#146;s
officers, directors, employees, and agents against liabilities which they may

indemnification is provided for is contained herein, but that description is

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In general, under Article&nbsp;2.02-1, any director, officer, employee
or agent of a Texas corporation may be indemnified against judgments, penalties
(including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements and reasonable
expenses (including court costs and attorneys&#146; fees) incurred in connection
with a legal proceeding to which he was a party as a result of such
relationship, if he acted in good faith and reasonably believed that in the
case of conduct in his official capacity as a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, that his conduct was in the corporation&#146;s best
interests, and in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, that he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under Article&nbsp;2.02-1, a determination of indemnification must be
made (i)&nbsp;by a majority vote of a quorum of the board of directors who at
the time of the vote are not named defendants or respondents in the proceeding,
(ii)&nbsp;if such a quorum is unobtainable, a majority vote of a committee of
the board of directors, (iii)&nbsp;by independent legal counsel or (iv)&nbsp;by
the shareholders in a vote that excludes the shares held by directors who are
named defendants or respondents in the proceeding. A Texas corporation must
indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation who is
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Article&nbsp;2.02-1 permits a Texas corporation to advance funds to pay
the reasonable expenses of any director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation involved in such action provided that the corporation receives a
written affirmation by the director of his good faith belief that he has met
the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification specified by Article&nbsp;2.02-1
and a written undertaking that the person will repay the advanced funds unless
it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification.</font></p>

adopted in the future, pursuant to the terms of agreements that may be entered
into in the future or pursuant to a vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors.</font></p>

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 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. &#160;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 of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
As permitted by the Texas Business Corporation Act (the "TBCA"), the
Company's Articles of Incorporation provide that a director of the Company
shall not be liable to the Company or its shareholders for
2
monetary
damages for an act or omission in the director's capacity as a director, except
for liability (i) for breach of the duty of loyalty to the Company or its
shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for a
transaction for which the director received an improper benefit, whether or not
the benefit resulted from an action taken within the scope of the director's
office, or (iv) for an act or omission for which the liability of the
director is expressly provided by an applicable statute.  In addition, Article 2.02-1 of the TBCA ("Article 2.02-1"),
the Company's Articles of Incorporation and the Company's By-laws (the "By-laws"),
under certain circumstances, provide for the indemnification of the Company's
officers, directors, employees, and agents against liabilities which they may
incur in such capacities. A summary of the circumstances in which such
indemnification is provided for is contained herein, but that description is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the TBCA, the Articles of
Incorporation and the By-laws.
In general, under Article 2.02-1, any director, officer, employee
or agent of a Texas corporation may be indemnified against judgments, penalties
(including excise and similar taxes), fines, settlements and reasonable
expenses (including court costs and attorneys' fees) incurred in connection
with a legal proceeding to which he was a party as a result of such
relationship, if he acted in good faith and reasonably believed that in the
case of conduct in his official capacity as a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, that his conduct was in the corporation's best
interests, and in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, that he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.
Under Article 2.02-1, a determination of indemnification must be
made (i) by a majority vote of a quorum of the board of directors who at
the time of the vote are not named defendants or respondents in the proceeding,
(ii) if such a quorum is unobtainable, a majority vote of a committee of
the board of directors, (iii) by independent legal counsel or (iv) by
the shareholders in a vote that excludes the shares held by directors who are
named defendants or respondents in the proceeding. A Texas corporation must
indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation who is
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of the proceeding.
Article 2.02-1 permits a Texas corporation to advance funds to pay
the reasonable expenses of any director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation involved in such action provided that the corporation receives a
written affirmation by the director of his good faith belief that he has met
the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification specified by Article 2.02-1
and a written undertaking that the person will repay the advanced funds unless
it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification.
Indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of the
Company may also be granted pursuant to provisions of the By-laws that may be
adopted in the future, pursuant to the terms of agreements that may be entered
into in the future or pursuant to a vote of shareholders or disinterested
directors.

Item 9.
Undertakings
(a)
The
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 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, represents 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 20%
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(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 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.
4
(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
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 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 Securities Act of 1933 and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
