and the description of its common stock and

2
All documents subsequently filed by the registrant under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the effective date of this registration statement and prior to the termination of the offering of the common stock offered hereby shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this registration statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of those documents. Any statement contained herein or in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any document which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be
deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration statement.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.
The legality of the issuance of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for the registrant by Shack Siegel Katz & Flaherty P.C., 530 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10036. As of November 9, 2004, shareholders of Shack Siegel Katz & Flaherty P.C. held, in the aggregate, 1,000
shares of common stock and options to purchase 60,000 shares of common stock.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The registrant's authority to indemnify its officers and directors is governed by the provisions of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), by the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the registrant (the "Bylaws"), by the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, of the registrant (the "Certificate of Incorporation") and by indemnification agreements entered into with directors and officers (the "Indemnity Agreements").
Under Section 145 of the DGCL, directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals may be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation (a "derivative action")) if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the registrant, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard of care is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with defense or settlement of such an action and the DGCL requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the registrant.
The Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the registrant shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, (i) indemnify any and all persons whom it shall have power to indemnify under said section from and against any and all of the expenses, liabilities or other matters referred to in or covered by said section, and (ii) advance expenses related thereto to any and all said persons. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided for therein shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in their official capacities and as to action in another capacity while holding such offices, and shall continue as to
persons who have ceased to be directors, officers, employees or agents and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such persons. In addition, the Certificate of Incorporation provides for the elimination of personal liability of directors of the registrant to the registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as amended and supplemented.
The Indemnity Agreements provide for the indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware and obligate the registrant to provide the maximum protection allowed under Delaware law. In addition, the Indemnity Agreements supplement and increase that protection.
3
The registrant has purchased an insurance policy that provides coverage for losses of up to an aggregate amount of $40 million arising from claims made against the directors or officers for any actual or alleged wrongful act in their capacities as directors or officers of the registrant. The coverage only applies, however, if indemnity is not available under the provisions described above in this Item 6.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
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 the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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 that
time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
h.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 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 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
