provides in relevant part that &#147;&#091;a&#093; corporation shall have power to indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the

at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,

in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a
manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person&#146;s conduct was
unlawful.&#148; With respect to derivative actions, Section&nbsp;145(b) of the DGCL
provides in relevant part that &#147;&#091;a&#093; corporation shall have power to indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any

the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except
that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter
as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.&#148;

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")
provides in relevant part that "[a] corporation shall have power to indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the
right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a
manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was
unlawful." With respect to derivative actions, Section 145(b) of the DGCL
provides in relevant part that "[a] corporation shall have power to indemnify
any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any
threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor...[by reason of the person's
service in one of the capacities specified in the preceding sentence] against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the
person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if
the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except
that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter
as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper."
The Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, no director of the Registrant shall
be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. This limitation of liability
contained in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation continues after a
director has ceased to occupy such position as to acts or omissions occurring
during such director's term or terms of office.
The Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the Registrant
shall indemnify to the maximum extent and in the manner permitted by the DGCL
each of its directors and officers against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably
incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that
such person is or was an agent of the Registrant. The Amended and Restated
Bylaws also provide that the Registrant shall indemnify to the extent

and in the manner permitted by the DGCL each of its employees and other
agents (other than directors and officers) against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of
the fact that such person is or was an agent of the Registrant.

1999 (SEC File No. 333-79259).
Item 9. Undertakings.
A) 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 this registration statement or any material
change to such information in this registration statement.
2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, 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 that remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

B)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
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.
C)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it
meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this
Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto, duly authorized, in the City of San Jose, State of California, on
