<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;Commission&#148;)
are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;The Registrant&#146;s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004, filed on
March&nbsp;16, 2005, as amended on Form 10-K/A filed on April&nbsp;22, 2005, which contains audited financial
statements for the most recent fiscal year for which such statements have been filed;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;The Registrant&#146;s Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed on January&nbsp;5, 2005 and February&nbsp;28,
2005; and


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;The description of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock contained in its Current Report on Form
8-K dated May&nbsp;21, 2003, including any amendments or reports filed for the purpose of updating such
description.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections&nbsp;13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;), after the date hereof, and prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that the securities offered hereby have been
sold or which deregisters the securities covered hereby then remaining unsold, shall also be deemed
to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof commencing
on the respective dates on which such documents are filed.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant&#146;s certificate of incorporation limits, to the maximum extent permitted by
Delaware law, the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for breach of their
fiduciary duties as a director. The Registrant&#146;s bylaws provide that the directors and officers
(and legal representatives of such directors and officers) will be indemnified to the fullest
extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law with respect to third-party actions,
suits, investigations or proceedings provided that any such person has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law described below. The Registrant&#146;s
bylaws further provide that directors and officers (and legal representatives of such directors and
officers) will be indemnified with respect to actions or suits initiated by such person only if
such action was first approved by the board of directors. The Registrant&#146;s bylaws allow the
Registrant to pay all expenses incurred by a director or officer (or legal representatives of such
directors or officers) in defending any proceeding within the scope of the indemnification
provisions as such expenses are incurred in advance of its final disposition, upon an undertaking
by such party to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined that such party was not
entitled to indemnity by the Registrant. The Registrant has entered into indemnification
agreements with its officers and directors so as to provide them with the maximum protection
permitted by law. The Registrant believes that these agreements are necessary to attract and
retain qualified persons as directors and officers.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify
a director, officer, employee or agent who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party
to any action, suit or

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact
that he was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or was serving at the request
of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action 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 and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause
to believe his conduct was unlawful.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE
The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement:
(a) The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, filed on
March 16, 2005, as amended on Form 10-K/A filed on April 22, 2005, which contains audited financial
statements for the most recent fiscal year for which such statements have been filed;
(b) The Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed on January 5, 2005 and February 28,
2005; and
(c) The description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in its Current Report on Form
8-K dated May 21, 2003, including any amendments or reports filed for the purpose of updating such
description.
All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), after the date hereof, and prior to the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that the securities offered hereby have been
sold or which deregisters the securities covered hereby then remaining unsold, shall also be deemed
to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof commencing
on the respective dates on which such documents are filed.
Item 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Not applicable.
Item 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
None.
Item 6. DIRECTOR AND OFFICER INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
The Registrant's certificate of incorporation limits, to the maximum extent permitted by
Delaware law, the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for breach of their
fiduciary duties as a director. The Registrant's bylaws provide that the directors and officers
(and legal representatives of such directors and officers) will be indemnified to the fullest
extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law with respect to third-party actions,
suits, investigations or proceedings provided that any such person has met the applicable standard
of conduct set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law described below. The Registrant's
bylaws further provide that directors and officers (and legal representatives of such directors and
officers) will be indemnified with respect to actions or suits initiated by such person only if
such action was first approved by the board of directors. The Registrant's bylaws allow the
Registrant to pay all expenses incurred by a director or officer (or legal representatives of such
directors or officers) in defending any proceeding within the scope of the indemnification
provisions as such expenses are incurred in advance of its final disposition, upon an undertaking
by such party to repay such expenses if it is ultimately determined that such party was not
entitled to indemnity by the Registrant. The Registrant has entered into indemnification
agreements with its officers and directors so as to provide them with the maximum protection
permitted by law. The Registrant believes that these agreements are necessary to attract and
retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify
a director, officer, employee or agent who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party
to any action, suit or
II-1
Table of Contents
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact
that he was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or was serving at the request
of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action 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 and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause
to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore
unenforceable.

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:
(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 this
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 this Registration
Statement; and
II-2
Table of Contents
(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 paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(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 or furnished 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 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 which 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, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or 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 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 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.
