<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under the 2004 Stock
Incentive Plan, the Registrant may issue options, restricted stock, partnership
units and other securities.&#160; The
Registrant may issue shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Registrant (the &#147;Common Stock&#148;) under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, including
upon the exercise of options and as restricted stock, subject to vesting.&#160; The Common Stock is registered under
Section&nbsp;12 of the Exchange Act.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In addition, this
Registration Statement covers, among other things, deferred compensation that
may be elected by certain eligible employees, pursuant to the Registrant&#146;s
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, amended and restated as of
January&nbsp;1, 2003, as amended by Amendment No. One to The
Mills Corporation&#146;s Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, effective as of
March&nbsp;14, 2003 (collectively, the &#147;Deferred Compensation Plan&#148;).&#160; The following description of the Registrant&#146;s
deferred compensation obligations is qualified by reference to the Deferred
Compensation Plan, which is filed as an exhibit to this Registration Statement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The amount of
compensation deferred by each participant in the Deferred Compensation Plan
(the &#147;Participant&#148;) is determined based upon elections by such Participant of
up to (i) 100% of such Participant&#146;s base salary and (ii) 100% of such
Participant&#146;s annual bonus, each as reduced to the extent necessary to provide
for any required tax withholdings.&#160; A
Participant may make such election with respect to the coming twelve (12) month
period beginning on January&nbsp;1.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A Participant may also
elect to convert &#147;Stock Option Gains,&#148; which would otherwise be distributed to
the Participant in the form of Common Stock upon exercise by the Participant of
his or her stock options, into a contribution (a &#147;Stock Option Gains
Contribution&#148;) to such Participant&#146;s account, as further described below.&#160; Stock Option Gains with respect to a given
stock option award granted by the Registrant to a Participant under a stock
option program means the difference in dollar value, determined as of the date
of exercise of the stock option, between the exercise price of the stock option
and the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock.&#160; Any Stock Option Gains Contribution
automatically will be deemed to be invested in Common Stock equivalent in value
to the Stock Option Gains.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">All compensation
deferrals and Stock Option Gains Contributions are credited to a Participant&#146;s
deferred compensation and stock option gains contribution account (the
&#147;Deferred Compensation and Stock Option Account&#148;).&#160; At all times, Participants are fully vested
in amounts credited to his or her Deferred Compensation and Stock Option
Account.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Registrant may also
make discretionary contributions for any Participant under the Deferred
Compensation Plan, as determined by certain officers and employees of the
Registrant appointed by the Board of Directors to administer the Deferred
Compensation Plan (the &#147;Plan Committee&#148;), in its sole discretion.&#160; All discretionary contributions are credited
to a Participant&#146;s employer contribution credit account (the &#147;Employer
Contribution Credit Account&#148; and together with such Participant&#146;s Deferred
Compensation and Stock Option Account, the &#147;Account&#148;).&#160; A Participant will become vested in any
amounts credited to his or her Employer Contribution Credit Account according
to any vesting schedule&nbsp;adopted by the Registrant&#146;s board of directors, in
its sole discretion; provided that a Participant will become fully vested upon
attainment of the retirement age of 60, death, total and permanent disability or
change of control of the Registrant.</font></p>

the Plan Committee as soon as</font></p>

to any Stock Option Gains Contributions, which are automatically deemed to be
invested in Common Stock equivalent in value to the Stock Option Gains, and
subject to limitations imposed by law, the Registrant, the Trustee and as set
forth in the Deferred Compensation Plan, each Participant may direct the
Registrant as to how his or her Accounts should be deemed to be invested among
such categories of deemed investments as may be made available by the
Registrant.&#160; Such direction shall
designate the percentage of each portion of the Participant&#146;s Accounts that is
requested to be deemed to be invested in such categories of deemed
investments.&#160; All amounts credited to the
Participant&#146;s Account will be deemed to be invested in accordance with the then
effective deemed investment direction, unless and
until a subsequent deemed investment direction shall be filed and become
effective as of a designation date set by the Plan Committee.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">A Participant may select
the manner of payment and select a fixed payment date for the payment or
commencement of payment of funds credited to his or her Account (or portions
thereof). The minimum deferral period is a 24-month period and the fixed
payment date elected must be on January&nbsp;1<sup>st</sup> of the year the
distribution is to be made.&#160; Such payment
dates may be extended to later dates so long as elections to so extend the
payment dates are made by the Participant at least six (6) months prior to the
date on which the distribution is scheduled to be made or commence. Such
payment dates may not be accelerated, except pursuant to an early withdrawal
option, subject to a 10% penalty payment, or pursuant to a &#147;hardship&#148;
exception.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Within ninety (90) days
following the earlier of a Participant&#146;s termination of employment with the
Registrant or the date(s) selected by a Participant, such Participant will be
entitled to receive a distribution in an aggregate amount equal to the
Participant&#146;s vested Account.&#160; Payments
under the Deferred Compensation Plan (other than payments with respect to
amounts deemed invested in Common Stock) will be made in cash or in-kind, as elected
by the Participant and as permitted by the Registrant and the Trustee.&#160; All amounts invested in Common Stock pursuant
to a Stock Options Gain Contribution will be distributed in shares of Common
Stock.&#160; The payments will be made in a
lump sum or in monthly or quarterly substantially equal installments for a
period not to exceed fifteen (15) years (adjusted for gains and losses), as
selected by the Participant.&#160;
Notwithstanding the preceding, if at any time up to twenty-four (24)
months following the Participant&#146;s termination of employment with the
Registrant the Participant enters into competition with the Registrant or the
Participant is terminated on an involuntary basis, the Registrant may
accelerate the payment of benefits.&#160; If a
Participant&#146;s employment with the Registrant is terminated for any reason
(other than by reason of total and permanent disability) prior to the
attainment of the age of sixty (60) or the &#147;early retirement age,&#148; as
determined by the Plan Committee, or if a Participant does not make an election
regarding payment, and the Participant terminates employment with the
Registrant for any reason, such Participant will be entitled to receive a lump
sum payment.&#160; Upon the death of a
Participant, the Account becomes fully vested and payment of an amount equal to
such Participant&#146;s Account will be made within ninety (90) days of such
Participant&#146;s death.&#160; Upon the total and
permanent disability of the Participant or a change of control in the
Registrant, the Account becomes fully vested and payment will be made within
thirty (30) days of such disability or change of control, unless the
Participant elects to receive such payment in installments or as of a different
date, as applicable.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Under Section&nbsp;145 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;), a corporation may indemnify
its directors, officers, employees and agents and its former directors,
officers, employees and agents and those who serve, at the corporation&#146;s
request, in such capacities with another enterprise, against expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees), as well as judgments, fines and settlements in
nonderivative lawsuits, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the
defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they or any of them were or
are made parties or are threatened to be made parties by reason of their
serving or having served in such capacity. The DGCL provides, however, that
such person must have acted in good faith and in a manner such person
reasonably believed to be in (or not opposed to) the best interest of the corporation
and, in the case of a criminal action or proceeding, such person must have had
no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In addition,
the DGCL does not permit indemnification in an action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation, where such person has been adjudged liable to the
corporation, unless, and only to the extent that, a court determines that such
person fairly and reasonably is entitled to indemnity for costs the court deems
proper in light of liability adjudication and in view of all circumstances.
Indemnity for present and former directors and officers is mandatory to the
extent a claim, issue or matter has been successfully defended.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;The
certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Registrant provide for mandatory
indemnification of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by
the DGCL.&#160; The Registrant has obtained
directors and officers liability insurance.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors,
some of whom are also its officers. Under these agreements, the Registrant has
agreed to indemnify its directors to the fullest extent permitted by law for
damages and expenses incurred in connection with actual or threatened legal
proceedings related to the indemnified party&#146;s service to the Registrant.<b><font style="font-weight:bold;">&#160; </font></b>The Registrant is
obligated under these agreements to advance certain expenses to the indemnified
parties as they are incurred, subject to reimbursement if it is subsequently
determined that the indemnified party was not entitled to indemnification. The
Registrant is also obligated to pay expenses incurred by an indemnified party
in establishing a right to indemnification under the respective indemnification
agreement. Although the indemnification agreements offer substantially the same
scope of coverage afforded by the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws,
the agreements provide greater assurance to indemnified parties that
indemnification will be available, because, as contracts, they cannot be
modified unilaterally by the board of directors or by the stockholders to
alter, limit or eliminate the rights they provide to the indemnified parties.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to the Registrant&#146;s directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, although the
validity and scope of the governing statute have not been tested in court, in
the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In addition,
indemnification may be limited by state securities laws.</font></p>

pursuant to existing 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.&#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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</p>

Item 4.
Description
of Securities
Under the 2004 Stock
Incentive Plan, the Registrant may issue options, restricted stock, partnership
units and other securities.  The
Registrant may issue shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the
Registrant (the "Common Stock") under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, including
upon the exercise of options and as restricted stock, subject to vesting.  The Common Stock is registered under
Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
In addition, this
Registration Statement covers, among other things, deferred compensation that
may be elected by certain eligible employees, pursuant to the Registrant's
Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, amended and restated as of
January 1, 2003, as amended by Amendment No. One to The
Mills Corporation's Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, effective as of
March 14, 2003 (collectively, the "Deferred Compensation Plan").  The following description of the Registrant's
deferred compensation obligations is qualified by reference to the Deferred
Compensation Plan, which is filed as an exhibit to this Registration Statement.
The amount of
compensation deferred by each participant in the Deferred Compensation Plan
(the "Participant") is determined based upon elections by such Participant of
up to (i) 100% of such Participant's base salary and (ii) 100% of such
Participant's annual bonus, each as reduced to the extent necessary to provide
for any required tax withholdings.  A
Participant may make such election with respect to the coming twelve (12) month
period beginning on January 1.
A Participant may also
elect to convert "Stock Option Gains," which would otherwise be distributed to
the Participant in the form of Common Stock upon exercise by the Participant of
his or her stock options, into a contribution (a "Stock Option Gains
Contribution") to such Participant's account, as further described below.  Stock Option Gains with respect to a given
stock option award granted by the Registrant to a Participant under a stock
option program means the difference in dollar value, determined as of the date
of exercise of the stock option, between the exercise price of the stock option
and the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock.  Any Stock Option Gains Contribution
automatically will be deemed to be invested in Common Stock equivalent in value
to the Stock Option Gains.
All compensation
deferrals and Stock Option Gains Contributions are credited to a Participant's
deferred compensation and stock option gains contribution account (the
"Deferred Compensation and Stock Option Account").  At all times, Participants are fully vested
in amounts credited to his or her Deferred Compensation and Stock Option
Account.
The Registrant may also
make discretionary contributions for any Participant under the Deferred
Compensation Plan, as determined by certain officers and employees of the
Registrant appointed by the Board of Directors to administer the Deferred
Compensation Plan (the "Plan Committee"), in its sole discretion.  All discretionary contributions are credited
to a Participant's employer contribution credit account (the "Employer
Contribution Credit Account" and together with such Participant's Deferred
Compensation and Stock Option Account, the "Account").  A Participant will become vested in any
amounts credited to his or her Employer Contribution Credit Account according
to any vesting schedule adopted by the Registrant's board of directors, in
its sole discretion; provided that a Participant will become fully vested upon
attainment of the retirement age of 60, death, total and permanent disability or
change of control of the Registrant.
An amount equal to a
Participant's Account may be contributed by the Registrant to a trust (the
"Trust") that is administered by a trustee (the "Trustee"), as designated by
the Plan Committee as soon as
3
practicable following the
date on which the contribution credit amounts are determined.
Other than with respect
to any Stock Option Gains Contributions, which are automatically deemed to be
invested in Common Stock equivalent in value to the Stock Option Gains, and
subject to limitations imposed by law, the Registrant, the Trustee and as set
forth in the Deferred Compensation Plan, each Participant may direct the
Registrant as to how his or her Accounts should be deemed to be invested among
such categories of deemed investments as may be made available by the
Registrant.  Such direction shall
designate the percentage of each portion of the Participant's Accounts that is
requested to be deemed to be invested in such categories of deemed
investments.  All amounts credited to the
Participant's Account will be deemed to be invested in accordance with the then
effective deemed investment direction, unless and
until a subsequent deemed investment direction shall be filed and become
effective as of a designation date set by the Plan Committee.
A Participant may select
the manner of payment and select a fixed payment date for the payment or
commencement of payment of funds credited to his or her Account (or portions
thereof). The minimum deferral period is a 24-month period and the fixed
payment date elected must be on January 1
st
of the year the
distribution is to be made.  Such payment
dates may be extended to later dates so long as elections to so extend the
payment dates are made by the Participant at least six (6) months prior to the
date on which the distribution is scheduled to be made or commence. Such
payment dates may not be accelerated, except pursuant to an early withdrawal
option, subject to a 10% penalty payment, or pursuant to a "hardship"
exception.
Within ninety (90) days
following the earlier of a Participant's termination of employment with the
Registrant or the date(s) selected by a Participant, such Participant will be
entitled to receive a distribution in an aggregate amount equal to the
Participant's vested Account.  Payments
under the Deferred Compensation Plan (other than payments with respect to
amounts deemed invested in Common Stock) will be made in cash or in-kind, as elected
by the Participant and as permitted by the Registrant and the Trustee.  All amounts invested in Common Stock pursuant
to a Stock Options Gain Contribution will be distributed in shares of Common
Stock.  The payments will be made in a
lump sum or in monthly or quarterly substantially equal installments for a
period not to exceed fifteen (15) years (adjusted for gains and losses), as
selected by the Participant. 
Notwithstanding the preceding, if at any time up to twenty-four (24)
months following the Participant's termination of employment with the
Registrant the Participant enters into competition with the Registrant or the
Participant is terminated on an involuntary basis, the Registrant may
accelerate the payment of benefits.  If a
Participant's employment with the Registrant is terminated for any reason
(other than by reason of total and permanent disability) prior to the
attainment of the age of sixty (60) or the "early retirement age," as
determined by the Plan Committee, or if a Participant does not make an election
regarding payment, and the Participant terminates employment with the
Registrant for any reason, such Participant will be entitled to receive a lump
sum payment.  Upon the death of a
Participant, the Account becomes fully vested and payment of an amount equal to
such Participant's Account will be made within ninety (90) days of such
Participant's death.  Upon the total and
permanent disability of the Participant or a change of control in the
Registrant, the Account becomes fully vested and payment will be made within
thirty (30) days of such disability or change of control, unless the
Participant elects to receive such payment in installments or as of a different
date, as applicable.
The
Registrant reserves the right to amend the Deferred Compensation Plan at any
time, except that no such amendment may deprive a Participant or his or her
beneficiary of a right accrued prior to the
4
date
of the amendment.  The Registrant also
reserves the right to terminate or suspend the Deferred Compensation Plan by
action of the Board of Directors.
Item 5.
Interests

Not Applicable.
Item
6.
Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Under Section 145 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), a corporation may indemnify
its directors, officers, employees and agents and its former directors,
officers, employees and agents and those who serve, at the corporation's
request, in such capacities with another enterprise, against expenses
(including attorneys' fees), as well as judgments, fines and settlements in
nonderivative lawsuits, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the
defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which they or any of them were or
are made parties or are threatened to be made parties by reason of their
serving or having served in such capacity. The DGCL provides, however, that
such person must have acted in good faith and in a manner such person
reasonably believed to be in (or not opposed to) the best interest of the corporation
and, in the case of a criminal action or proceeding, such person must have had
no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. In addition,
the DGCL does not permit indemnification in an action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation, where such person has been adjudged liable to the
corporation, unless, and only to the extent that, a court determines that such
person fairly and reasonably is entitled to indemnity for costs the court deems
proper in light of liability adjudication and in view of all circumstances.
Indemnity for present and former directors and officers is mandatory to the
extent a claim, issue or matter has been successfully defended.
The
certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Registrant provide for mandatory
indemnification of directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by
the DGCL.  The Registrant has obtained
directors and officers liability insurance.
The
Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors,
some of whom are also its officers. Under these agreements, the Registrant has
agreed to indemnify its directors to the fullest extent permitted by law for
damages and expenses incurred in connection with actual or threatened legal
proceedings related to the indemnified party's service to the Registrant.
The Registrant is
obligated under these agreements to advance certain expenses to the indemnified
parties as they are incurred, subject to reimbursement if it is subsequently
determined that the indemnified party was not entitled to indemnification. The
Registrant is also obligated to pay expenses incurred by an indemnified party
in establishing a right to indemnification under the respective indemnification
agreement. Although the indemnification agreements offer substantially the same
scope of coverage afforded by the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws,
the agreements provide greater assurance to indemnified parties that
indemnification will be available, because, as contracts, they cannot be
modified unilaterally by the board of directors or by the stockholders to
alter, limit or eliminate the rights they provide to the indemnified parties.
Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to the Registrant's directors and officers pursuant to the foregoing
provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, although the
validity and scope of the governing statute have not been tested in court, in
the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In addition,
indemnification may be limited by state securities laws.
5
The limited
partnership agreement, as amended, of The Mills Limited Partnership, the
operating partnership of the Registrant, also provides for similar
indemnification of the Registrant, in the Registrant's capacity as the general
partner of The Mills Limited Partnership, and its officers and directors, to
the maximum extent provided by the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership

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;
(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
6
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; 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 this Registration Statement;
provided,
however,
that subparagraphs (i) and (ii) above 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
this 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 herein, 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
Registrant hereby further 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 this 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.
(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 existing 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.
