<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">addition, a corporation may indemnify such corporate agent against his
expenses in connection with any proceeding by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor which involves such corporate
agent by reason of his having been such corporate agent, if he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation.&#160;
However, in such proceeding no indemnification shall be provided in
respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such corporate agent shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the
extent that the Superior Court of the State of New Jersey or the court in which
such proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such
corporate agent is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses
as the Superior Court or such other court shall deem proper.</font></p>

corporate agent may be entitled under a certificate of incorporation, bylaw,
agreement, vote of shareholders, or otherwise; provided that no indemnification
shall be made to or on behalf of a corporate agent if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the corporate agent establishes that his acts or
omissions (a) were in breach of his duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders, (b) were not in good faith or involved a knowing violation of law
or (c) resulted in receipt by the corporate agent of an improper personal

such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the

Item 6
.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
Section 14A:3-5 of The New Jersey Business Corporation
Act (the "NJBCA") empowers a New Jersey corporation to indemnify any person who
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the indemnifying
corporation or of any constituent corporation absorbed by the indemnifying
corporation in a consolidation or merger and any person who is or was a
director, officer, trustee, employee or agent of any other enterprise, serving
as such at the request of the indemnifying corporation, or of any such
constituent corporation, or legal representative of any such director, officer,
trustee, employee or agent (a "corporate agent"), against his expenses and
liabilities incurred in connection with any proceeding involving the corporate
agent, other than a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation, if (a)
such corporate agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and (b) with
respect to any criminal proceeding, such corporate agent had no reason to
believe that his conduct was unlawful. 
In
II-1
addition, a corporation may indemnify such corporate agent against his
expenses in connection with any proceeding by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor which involves such corporate
agent by reason of his having been such corporate agent, if he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation. 
However, in such proceeding no indemnification shall be provided in
respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such corporate agent shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the
extent that the Superior Court of the State of New Jersey or the court in which
such proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, such
corporate agent is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses
as the Superior Court or such other court shall deem proper.
Under the NJBCA, a corporation shall indemnify a
corporate agent against expenses to the extent that such corporate agent has
been successful on the merits or otherwise in any proceeding referred to above
or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.
The indemnification and advancement of expenses
provided by or granted pursuant to the NJBCA shall not exclude any other
rights, including the right to be indemnified against liabilities and expenses
incurred in proceedings by or in the right of the corporation, to which a
corporate agent may be entitled under a certificate of incorporation, bylaw,
agreement, vote of shareholders, or otherwise; provided that no indemnification
shall be made to or on behalf of a corporate agent if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the corporate agent establishes that his acts or
omissions (a) were in breach of his duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
shareholders, (b) were not in good faith or involved a knowing violation of law
or (c) resulted in receipt by the corporate agent of an improper personal
benefit.
The Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
and Article XIII of the Registrant's Amended and Restated By-Laws provide
for the indemnification of its Officers and Directors under certain
circumstances and are incorporated herein by reference.

Undertakings
.
The undersigned
Registrant hereby undertakes as follows:
(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 (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 aggregate,
  represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
  registration statement;
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to
  the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this registration
  statement or any material change to such information in this registration
  statement;
provided
,
however
, that the
undertakings set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above shall 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
Securities and Exchange 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
therein, and the offering of such securities at the 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.
(4)  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 this 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.
(5)  To deliver or cause to be delivered with the
prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest
annual report to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the
prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3
or Rule 14c-3 under the Exchange Act; and, where interim financial information
required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not set forth in the
prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the
prospectus or cause to be
II-3
delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the
latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the
prospectus to provide such interim financial information.
(6)  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 against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
II-4
