Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
The Company currently has purchased officers and directors liability insurance.  Subject to a $150,000 deductible on all claims except securities claims which carry a $500,000 deductible and M&A claims which carry a $750,000 deductible. The policy will cover certain claims against officers and directors of the Company up to $10,000,000.  Paragraph EIGHTH of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates a director's personal liability to the Company or its shareholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by New York law.  Article XII of the Company's By-Laws requires the Company to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under New York Business Corporation Law.
- 3 -
The New York Business Corporation Law generally provides that a corporation may indemnify a person who was made a party to any threatened or pending proceeding (including a lawsuit) by reason of his position if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation, and in certain cases may advance expenses incurred in defending any proceeding.  To the extent that a director or officer is successful on the merits in any proceeding as to which such person is to be indemnified, the corporation must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees.  With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only with Court approval where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable for gross negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty.

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.
(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;
- 4 -
provided, however, that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a) (1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any 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(b) 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 Securities and Exchange 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.
