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. The Restated
Certificate of Incorporation also provides that no amendment or repeal of such
provision shall apply to or have any effect on the right to indemnification
permitted thereunder with respect to claims arising from acts or omissions
occurring in whole or in part before the effective date of such amendment or
repeal whether asserted before or after such amendment or repeal.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant&#146;s bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers,
directors and third parties acting on behalf of the Registrant if such person
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not
opposed to the best interest of the Registrant, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, the indemnified party had no reason to believe
his or her conduct was unlawful. The Registrant has entered into
indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers and
intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and
executive officers in the future.

REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
There are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
the following documents and information previously filed by the
Registrant with the Securities
and Exchange Commission:
1. The Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 28, 2002 filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act");
2. The Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
ended March 29, 2003 filed pursuant to Section 13 of the
Exchange Act; and
3. The description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in the
Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed on February 15, 1996,
pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and any further amendment or
report filed hereafter for the purpose of updating such description.
All
documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c),
14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act on or after the date of this Registration
Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates
that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities
then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing of such
documents. For the purposes of this Registration Statement, any statement contained in a
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be
deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a statement contained
herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed
to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.
Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
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
Table of Contents
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 Amended and 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. The Restated
Certificate of Incorporation also provides that no amendment or repeal of such
provision shall apply to or have any effect on the right to indemnification
permitted thereunder with respect to claims arising from acts or omissions
occurring in whole or in part before the effective date of such amendment or
repeal whether asserted before or after such amendment or repeal.
The Registrant's bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers,
directors and third parties acting on behalf of the Registrant if such person
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not
opposed to the best interest of the Registrant, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, the indemnified party had no reason to believe
his or her conduct was unlawful. The Registrant has entered into
indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers and
intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and
executive officers in the future.
The Registrant carries officer and director liability insurance with
respect to certain matters, including matters arising under the Securities Act.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not Applicable.

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
-3-
Table of Contents
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.
