permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, to each person who is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant, or who serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the
request of the Registrant (an &#147;Indemnitee&#148;).</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under Delaware law, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits in defense of

director, officer, or agent of the Registrant, or serves or served any other enterprise or
organization at the request of the Registrant, the Registrant shall indemnify him or her against
expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such
action.</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal suit, or if such a suit
is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under Delaware law against both (i)&nbsp;expenses,
including attorney&#146;s fees, and (ii)&nbsp;judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement if he or she
acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the

to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of the Registrant, where the

suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or
not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to
be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Registrant, he

reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses.</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Also under Delaware law, expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the Registrant in advance of the final
disposition of the suit, action, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the officer or director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not
entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant. The Registrant may also advance expenses incurred by
other employees and agents of the Registrant upon such terms and conditions, if any, that the Board
of Directors of the Registrant deems appropriate.</DIV>

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 of 1933 and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 4.
Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The validity of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for us by
Greenberg Traurig, LLP, Phoenix, Arizona. Robert S. Kant, a principal shareholder of Greenberg
Traurig, P.A., has served as a director of our company since August 1998 and owns 57,264 shares of
our common stock and holds options to purchase 65,500 shares of our common stock at various prices.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of the
Registrant provide that the Registrant will indemnify and advance expenses, to the fullest extent
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, to each person who is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant, or who serves or served any other enterprise or organization at the
request of the Registrant (an "Indemnitee").
Under Delaware law, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits in defense of
a suit or proceeding brought against him or her by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
director, officer, or agent of the Registrant, or serves or served any other enterprise or
organization at the request of the Registrant, the Registrant shall indemnify him or her against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such
action.
If unsuccessful in defense of a third-party civil suit or a criminal suit, or if such a suit
is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under Delaware law against both (i) expenses,
including attorney's fees, and (ii) judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement if he or she
acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the
best interests of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause
to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
If unsuccessful in defense of a suit brought by or in the right of the Registrant, where the
suit is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under Delaware law only against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in the defense or settlement of the
suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or
not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to
be liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his or her duty to the Registrant, he
or she cannot be made whole even for expenses unless a court determines that he or she is fully and
reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses.
Also under Delaware law, expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the Registrant in advance of the final
disposition of the suit, action, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the officer or director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not
entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant. The Registrant may also advance expenses incurred by
other employees and agents of the Registrant upon such terms and conditions, if any, that the Board
of Directors of the Registrant deems appropriate.

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 of 1933;
(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 hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental
change in the information set forth in this 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 Commission pursuant to
Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20 percent 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 this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this Registration Statement.
provided, however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if
the Registration Statement is on Form S-8 and the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this 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(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 the time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(c) 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,
3
Table of Contents
the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
