      in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding. The

      expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
      that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than for our
      payment of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers or
      controlling persons 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, then, unless in the opinion of our counsel
      the
      matter has been settled by controlling precedent, the Registrant will 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.</font></div>

Alexandra
      M. Luster, the Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the
      Registrant, has rendered the opinion that is included as Exhibit 5.1 to this
      Registration Statement. Ms. Luster currently holds options to purchase a total

Item
                6.
Indemnification
                of Directors and Officers.
The
      New
      Jersey Business Corporation Act permits or requires indemnification of officers
      and directors in the event that certain statutory standards of conduct are
      met.
The
      Registrant's certificate of incorporation and bylaws limits the liability of
      directors to the maximum extent permitted by New Jersey law. Specifically,
      a
      director will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of
      fiduciary duty as a director, except liability for: (i) any breach of their
      duty
      of loyalty to the Registrant or the Registrant's stockholders; (ii) acts or
      omissions not in good faith or which involve a knowing violation of the law;
      or
      (iii) any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
      benefit. The limitation of liability does not apply to liabilities arising
      under
      the Federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable
      remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.
The
      Registrant's bylaws provide that it will indemnify its directors and officers
      and may indemnify its employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted
      by law. The Registrant believes that indemnification under its bylaws covers
      at
      least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties.
The
      Registrant's bylaws also provide that it will advance expenses incurred by a
      director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or
      proceeding and it may advance expenses incurred by its employees or other agents
      in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding. The
      Registrant's bylaws also permit it to secure insurance on behalf of any officer,
      director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her
      actions in his or her capacity as an officer, director, employee or other agent.
      The Registrant believes that these bylaw provisions and indemnification
      agreements are necessary to attract and retain the services of highly qualified
      persons as directors and officers.
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.

      file,
      during any period in which offers or sales are being made of securities
      registered hereby, 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
(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
      the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(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 with or furnished
      to
      the Commission 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;
      and
(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
      Registrant further undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability
      under the Securities Act, each filing of our annual report pursuant to Section
      13(a) or 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.
(c)
Insofar
      as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
      permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons 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 for our
      payment of expenses incurred or paid by one of our directors, officers or
      controlling persons 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, then, unless in the opinion of our counsel
      the
      matter has been settled by controlling precedent, the Registrant will 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.
