<h2 style="font-size:10.0pt;font-weight:normal;margin:0in 0in .0001pt .35in;page-break-after:auto;text-indent:.5in;">&nbsp;</h2>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Virginia Stock Corporation Act permits,
and the Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation require, indemnification of the
Company&#146;s directors and officers in a variety of circumstances, which may
include indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act. Under
Sections 13.1-697 and 13.1-702 of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act, a
Virginia corporation generally is authorized to indemnify its directors and
officers in civil or criminal actions if they acted in good faith and believed
their conduct to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in the case
of criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was
unlawful. The Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation require indemnification of
directors and officers with respect to certain liabilities, expenses and other
amounts imposed upon them by reason of having been a director or officer,
except in the case of willful misconduct or a knowing violation of criminal
law. In addition, the Company will carry insurance on behalf of directors,
officers, employees or agents that may cover liabilities under the Securities
Act. The Company&#146;s Articles of Incorporation also provide that, to the full
extent the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (as it presently exists or may
hereafter be amended) permits the limitation or elimination of the liability of
directors and officers, no director or officer of the Company shall be liable
to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages with respect to any
transaction, occurrence or course of conduct. Section&nbsp;13.1-692.1 of the
Virginia Stock Corporation Act presently permits the elimination of liability
of directors and officers in any proceeding brought by or in the right of the
Company or brought by or on behalf of shareholders of the Company, except for
liability resulting from such person&#146;s having engaged in willful misconduct or
a knowing violation of the criminal law or any federal or state securities law,
including, without limitation, any unlawful insider trading or manipulation of
the market for any security. Sections 13.1-692.1 and 13.1-696 to -704 of the
Virginia Stock Corporation Act are hereby incorporated by reference herein.</font></p>

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

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions or
otherwise, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.</font></p>

officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Company 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 Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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>

The following documents filed with the Commission are incorporated

and

Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share, contained in the Company's

II-1
Item
6.  Indemnification of Directors and
Officers.
The Virginia Stock Corporation Act permits,
and the Company's Articles of Incorporation require, indemnification of the
Company's directors and officers in a variety of circumstances, which may
include indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act. Under
Sections 13.1-697 and 13.1-702 of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act, a
Virginia corporation generally is authorized to indemnify its directors and
officers in civil or criminal actions if they acted in good faith and believed
their conduct to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in the case
of criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was
unlawful. The Company's Articles of Incorporation require indemnification of
directors and officers with respect to certain liabilities, expenses and other
amounts imposed upon them by reason of having been a director or officer,
except in the case of willful misconduct or a knowing violation of criminal
law. In addition, the Company will carry insurance on behalf of directors,
officers, employees or agents that may cover liabilities under the Securities
Act. The Company's Articles of Incorporation also provide that, to the full
extent the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (as it presently exists or may
hereafter be amended) permits the limitation or elimination of the liability of
directors and officers, no director or officer of the Company shall be liable
to the Company or its shareholders for monetary damages with respect to any
transaction, occurrence or course of conduct. Section 13.1-692.1 of the
Virginia Stock Corporation Act presently permits the elimination of liability
of directors and officers in any proceeding brought by or in the right of the
Company or brought by or on behalf of shareholders of the Company, except for
liability resulting from such person's having engaged in willful misconduct or
a knowing violation of the criminal law or any federal or state securities law,
including, without limitation, any unlawful insider trading or manipulation of
the market for any security. Sections 13.1-692.1 and 13.1-696 to -704 of the
Virginia Stock Corporation Act are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions or
otherwise, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned Company 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 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 percent 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.
(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 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 undersigned Company hereby
undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each filing of the Company'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
therein, and the offering of such securities at the 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 Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the Company 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 Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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.
