</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;721 of the New York Business Corporation Law (the &#147;NYBCL&#148;) provides that, in addition
to indemnification provided in Article&nbsp;7 of the NYBCL, a corporation may indemnify a director or
officer by a provision contained in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or by a duly
authorized resolution of its shareowners or directors or by agreement, except that no
indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in
bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of
action so adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;722(a) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer
made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action other than a derivative action, whether civil
or criminal, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually
and necessarily incurred as a result of such action, if such director or officer acted, in good
faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests
of the corporation and, in criminal actions or proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to
believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;722(c) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer
made, or threatened to be made, a party in a derivative action, against amounts paid in settlement
and reasonable expenses actually and necessarily incurred by him or her in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action, or in connection with an appeal therein if such director or
officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification will be available under
Section 722(c) of the NYBCL in respect of (1)&nbsp;a threatened or pending action that is settled or
otherwise disposed of, or (2)&nbsp;any claim as to which such director or officer shall have been
adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the
action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any court of competent jurisdiction, determines
upon application, that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the director or officer is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement amount and expenses
as the court deems proper.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;723 of the NYBCL specifies the manner in which payment of indemnification under
Section&nbsp;722 of the NYBCL or indemnification permitted under Section&nbsp;721 of the NYBCL may be
authorized by the corporation. It provides that indemnification by a corporation is mandatory in
any case where the director or officer has been successful, whether on the merits or otherwise, in
defending an action. If the director or officer has not been successful or the action is settled,
indemnification must be authorized by the appropriate corporate action as set forth in Section&nbsp;723.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;724 of the NYBCL provides that, upon application by a director or officer,
indemnification may be awarded by a court to the extent authorized under Sections&nbsp;722 and 723 of
the NYBCL. Section&nbsp;725 of the NYBCL contains certain other miscellaneous provisions affecting the
indemnification of directors and officers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;726 of the NYBCL authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance to
indemnify: (1)&nbsp;a corporation for any obligation that it incurs as a result of the indemnification
of directors and officers under the provisions of Article&nbsp;7 of the NYBCL; (2)&nbsp;directors and
officers in instances in which they may be indemnified by a corporation under the provisions of
Article&nbsp;7 of the NYBCL; and (3)&nbsp;directors and officers in instances in which they may not otherwise
be indemnified by a corporation under such section, on condition that the contract of insurance
covering such directors and officers provides, in a manner acceptable to the New York State
Superintendent of Insurance, for a retention amount and for co-insurance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;Eleventh of the Registrant&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
provides as follows:
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">No director of this corporation shall be personally liable to this
corporation or its shareholders for damages for any breach of duty as a
director; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law,
the foregoing clause shall not apply to any liability

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt; margin-left: 4%">of a director if a
judgment or other final adjudication adverse to him establishes (i)&nbsp;that his
acts or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (ii)&nbsp;that he personally gained in fact a financial
profit or other advantage
to which he was not legally entitled, or (iii)&nbsp;that his acts violated
Section&nbsp;719 of the New York Business Corporation Law. Any repeal or
modification of this Article&nbsp;ELEVENTH shall not adversely affect any right
or protection of a director of the corporation existing hereunder with
respect to any act or omission occurring prior to or at the time of such
repeal or modification.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;IX of the Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated By-laws provides that the Registrant shall
indemnify and advance expenses to any present or future director or officer from and against any
and all liabilities and expenses to the broadest and maximum extent permitted by the NYBCL as the
same presently exists or to the greater extent permitted by any amendment hereafter adopted.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers
that provide indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by the NYBCL, as well as certain
additional procedural protections. The indemnification agreements provide that directors and
officers will be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by law against all expenses (including
attorneys&#146; fees) and settlement amounts paid or incurred by them in any proceeding as directors or
officers of the Registrant, including any action on account of their services as officers or
directors of any other company or enterprise when they are serving in such capacities at the
Registrant&#146;s request. The Registrant must pay in advance of a final disposition of a proceeding or
claim, the expenses incurred by the indemnitee no later than 10&nbsp;days after receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay the amount of the expenses to the extent
that it is ultimately determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the
Registrant. The indemnification agreements also provide the indemnitee with remedies in the event
that the Registrant does not fulfill its obligations under the indemnification agreements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As permitted by Section&nbsp;726 of the NYBCL, the Registrant maintains policies of insurance under
which its directors and officers are insured, within the limits and subject to the limitations of
the policies, against specific expenses in connection with the defense of, and specific liabilities
that might be imposed as a result of, actions, suits or proceedings to which they are parties by
reason of being or having been directors or officers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The preceding discussion of the NYBCL, the Registrant&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation
and the Registrant&#146;s Amended and Restated By-laws is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the NYBCL and such documents.

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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent
no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the

the initial bona fide offering thereof.

plan&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by

directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,

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 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.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 721 of the New York Business Corporation Law (the "NYBCL") provides that, in addition
to indemnification provided in Article 7 of the NYBCL, a corporation may indemnify a director or
officer by a provision contained in the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or by a duly
authorized resolution of its shareowners or directors or by agreement, except that no
indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any director or officer if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in
bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of
action so adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained in fact a financial profit or other
advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.
Section 722(a) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer
made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action other than a derivative action, whether civil
or criminal, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually
and necessarily incurred as a result of such action, if such director or officer acted, in good
faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests
of the corporation and, in criminal actions or proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to
believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 722(c) of the NYBCL provides that a corporation may indemnify a director or officer
made, or threatened to be made, a party in a derivative action, against amounts paid in settlement
and reasonable expenses actually and necessarily incurred by him or her in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action, or in connection with an appeal therein if such director or
officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not
opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. No indemnification will be available under
Section 722(c) of the NYBCL in respect of (1) a threatened or pending action that is settled or
otherwise disposed of, or (2) any claim as to which such director or officer shall have been
adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the
action was brought, or, if no action was brought, any court of competent jurisdiction, determines
upon application, that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the director or officer is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement amount and expenses
as the court deems proper.
Section 723 of the NYBCL specifies the manner in which payment of indemnification under
Section 722 of the NYBCL or indemnification permitted under Section 721 of the NYBCL may be
authorized by the corporation. It provides that indemnification by a corporation is mandatory in
any case where the director or officer has been successful, whether on the merits or otherwise, in
defending an action. If the director or officer has not been successful or the action is settled,
indemnification must be authorized by the appropriate corporate action as set forth in Section 723.
Section 724 of the NYBCL provides that, upon application by a director or officer,
indemnification may be awarded by a court to the extent authorized under Sections 722 and 723 of
the NYBCL. Section 725 of the NYBCL contains certain other miscellaneous provisions affecting the
indemnification of directors and officers.
Section 726 of the NYBCL authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance to
indemnify: (1) a corporation for any obligation that it incurs as a result of the indemnification
of directors and officers under the provisions of Article 7 of the NYBCL; (2) directors and
officers in instances in which they may be indemnified by a corporation under the provisions of
Article 7 of the NYBCL; and (3) directors and officers in instances in which they may not otherwise
be indemnified by a corporation under such section, on condition that the contract of insurance
covering such directors and officers provides, in a manner acceptable to the New York State
Superintendent of Insurance, for a retention amount and for co-insurance.
Article Eleventh of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
provides as follows:
No director of this corporation shall be personally liable to this
corporation or its shareholders for damages for any breach of duty as a
director; provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law,
the foregoing clause shall not apply to any liability
-3-
Table of Contents
of a director if a
judgment or other final adjudication adverse to him establishes (i) that his
acts or omissions were in bad faith or involved intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (ii) that he personally gained in fact a financial
profit or other advantage
to which he was not legally entitled, or (iii) that his acts violated
Section 719 of the New York Business Corporation Law. Any repeal or
modification of this Article ELEVENTH shall not adversely affect any right
or protection of a director of the corporation existing hereunder with
respect to any act or omission occurring prior to or at the time of such
repeal or modification.
Article IX of the Registrant's Amended and Restated By-laws provides that the Registrant shall
indemnify and advance expenses to any present or future director or officer from and against any
and all liabilities and expenses to the broadest and maximum extent permitted by the NYBCL as the
same presently exists or to the greater extent permitted by any amendment hereafter adopted.
The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers
that provide indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by the NYBCL, as well as certain
additional procedural protections. The indemnification agreements provide that directors and
officers will be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by law against all expenses (including
attorneys' fees) and settlement amounts paid or incurred by them in any proceeding as directors or
officers of the Registrant, including any action on account of their services as officers or
directors of any other company or enterprise when they are serving in such capacities at the
Registrant's request. The Registrant must pay in advance of a final disposition of a proceeding or
claim, the expenses incurred by the indemnitee no later than 10 days after receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay the amount of the expenses to the extent
that it is ultimately determined that the indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the
Registrant. The indemnification agreements also provide the indemnitee with remedies in the event
that the Registrant does not fulfill its obligations under the indemnification agreements.
As permitted by Section 726 of the NYBCL, the Registrant maintains policies of insurance under
which its directors and officers are insured, within the limits and subject to the limitations of
the policies, against specific expenses in connection with the defense of, and specific liabilities
that might be imposed as a result of, actions, suits or proceedings to which they are parties by
reason of being or having been directors or officers.
The preceding discussion of the NYBCL, the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
and the Registrant's Amended and Restated By-laws is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the NYBCL and such documents.

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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease
in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent
no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and
(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 information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
reports filed with or furnished to the SEC 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.
(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.
(c) 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 SEC 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 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.
