All
      documents subsequently filed by the
      Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange
      Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment that indicates that all
      securities offered hereby have been sold or that deregisters all such securities
      then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this
      Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such
      documents.
Item
      6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The
      Registrant's Bylaws provide that
      directors and officers of the Registrant will be indemnified by the Registrant
      against all actual expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred in connection
      with service for or on behalf of the Registrant; provided that such director
      or
      officer will not be entitled to indemnification if (i) such director or
      officer is adjudged guilty of or liable for gross negligence in the performance
      of his or her duties; (ii) such director or officer is adjudged guilty of
      or liable for willful misconduct or criminal acts in connection with the
      performance of his or her duties; and (iii) the action or suit giving rise
      to the director's or officer's liability is settled in a way not meeting the
      requirements set forth in the Registrant's Bylaws.  The Bylaws also
      provide that the right of directors and officers to indemnification is not
      exclusive of any other right now possessed or hereafter acquired under any
      statute, agreement or otherwise.
II-1
The
          Registrant's Articles of Incorporation provide that directors of the Registrant
          will not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Registrant or
          its
          shareholders for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, except
          for
          (i) any appropriation, in violation of a director's duties, of any business
          opportunity of the Registrant; (ii) any acts or omissions not in good faith
          or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
          (iii) liability arising in connection with a director taking the types of
          actions described in Section 14-2-640(c), or any successor section thereto,
          of
          the Official Code of Georgia Annotated (pertaining to illegal distributions
          to
          shareholders); or (iv) any transaction from which a director derives an
          improper material tangible personal benefit.  The Registrant's
          Articles of Incorporation further provide that, should the Official Code
          of
          Georgia Annotated be amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating
          or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of
          a
          director of the Registrant shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest
          extent
          permitted by the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, as so
          amended.  This provision applies only to claims against a director
          arising out of his or her role as a director and not in any other capacity
          (such
          as an officer or employee of the Registrant).
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
      Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
      Securities 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 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;
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 by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13
      or
      Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
      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.
II-3
(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, 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 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 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
