          Item 9. 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 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.

               (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 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 at that time shall therein,  and the offering of such
securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial  bona fide  offering
thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification by the Registrant for liabilities  arising under
the  Securities  Act of  1933  may  be  permitted  to  directors,  officers  and
controlling persons of the Registrant  pursuant to the provisions  referenced in
Item 5 of the  Registrant's  Registration  Statement on Form 10-SB 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  hereunder,  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.

               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 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 at that time shall therein,  and the offering of such
securities  at that time shall be deemed to be the  initial  bona fide  offering
thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification by the Registrant for liabilities  arising under
the  Securities  Act of  1933  may  be  permitted  to  directors,  officers  and
controlling persons of the Registrant  pursuant to the provisions  referenced in
Item 5 of the  Registrant's  Registration  Statement on Form 10-SB 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  hereunder,  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.
