<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that a
corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against
expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation &#151; a &#147;derivative action&#148;), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A
similar standard is

(including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any
indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation.
The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a
corporation&#146;s by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;6(d) of the Registrant&#146;s certificate of incorporation provides that the Registrant
will indemnify its directors and officers and may indemnify any other employees or agents to the
full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;6(c) of the Registrant&#146;s certificate of incorporation provides that its directors will
not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages resulting from
breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law.

insure against certain liabilities incurred by its directors and officers. The Registrant has also
entered into indemnification agreements with its non-employee directors, its executive officers and
certain other senior officers, in each case based on a form of indemnification agreement approved
by the Company&#146;s Board of Directors. The form of indemnification agreement includes provisions for
indemnification and advancement of expenses to supplement that provided under the Company&#146;s
Restated Certificate of Incorporation and insurance policies, subject to certain requirements and

Securities and Exchange 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.

be deemed to cover such additional shares of Common Stock as may be issued to prevent dilution
resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions.

Investor Services LLC, as Rights Agent. The preferred stock purchase rights are not presently
exercisable and do not trade separately from the Common Stock. The preferred stock purchase
rights will be issued for no additional consideration and, therefore, no additional
registration fee is required.

All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment that indicates that all securities
offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed

Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed
document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes
such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not Applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that a
corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the
corporation — a "derivative action"), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A
similar standard is
Table of Contents
applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses
(including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any
indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation.
The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a
corporation's by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise.
Article 6(d) of the Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that the Registrant
will indemnify its directors and officers and may indemnify any other employees or agents to the
full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Article 6(c) of the Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that its directors will
not be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages resulting from
breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law.
The Registrant has purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance policies which
insure against certain liabilities incurred by its directors and officers. The Registrant has also
entered into indemnification agreements with its non-employee directors, its executive officers and
certain other senior officers, in each case based on a form of indemnification agreement approved
by the Company's Board of Directors. The form of indemnification agreement includes provisions for
indemnification and advancement of expenses to supplement that provided under the Company's
Restated Certificate of Incorporation and insurance policies, subject to certain requirements and
limitations.
The foregoing summaries are necessarily subject to the complete text of the statute, the
registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, and the arrangements referred to above, and
in each case are qualified in their entirety by reference thereto.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not Applicable.
Item 8. Exhibits.
See the Index to Exhibits attached hereto.
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 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 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
Table of Contents
(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) 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 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 herein, 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 further undertakes that, for the 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 section 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 herein, 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 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 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.
