<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;Incorporation of Documents by Reference.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are hereby incorporated by reference: </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;The
Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December&nbsp;31, 1999 (Filed on March&nbsp;30, 2000). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;The
Registrant's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March&nbsp;31, 2000 (Filed on April&nbsp;14, 2000), June&nbsp;30, 2000 (Filed on
July&nbsp;28, 2000) and September&nbsp;30, 2000 (Filed on November&nbsp;9, 2000). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)&nbsp;The
Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on October&nbsp;11, 2000 (File No. 812-11976) and January&nbsp;10, 2001 (File No.
812-11976), and the Registrant's report on Form 8-K/A filed on January&nbsp;19, 2001 (File No. 812-11976)(amending the 8-K/A filed on September&nbsp;22, 2000). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)&nbsp;The
description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A, filed with the Commission on March&nbsp;12,
1996, as updated by the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on August&nbsp;11, 2000 (File No. 812-11976). </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;All
documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d)&nbsp;of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which
indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
and to be part hereof from the date of filing such documents. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;Description of Securities.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Not applicable. </FONT></P>


<P><FONT SIZE=2><B>Item 6.&nbsp;&nbsp;Indemnification of Directors and Officers.  </B></FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") allows for the indemnification of officers, directors, and other corporate
agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. Article&nbsp;XII of the Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation and Article&nbsp;VI of Registrant's bylaws authorize indemnification of Registrant's directors and
officers to the extent and under the circumstances permitted by the DGCL. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Registrant has also entered into agreements with its directors and certain officers that will require Registrant, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities
that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by law. The Registrant maintains liability insurance for the benefit of its officers
and directors. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
above discussion of the DGCL and of Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements is not intended to be exhaustive and is
qualified in its entirety by such statutes, amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: </FONT></P>

<UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;to
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement 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. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;that,
for purposes 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. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;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. </FONT></P>

</UL>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;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)&nbsp;or Section 15(d)&nbsp;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. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar
as the 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 a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered hereunder, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the question has already been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of 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></P>

PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are hereby incorporated by reference:
(a) The
Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 (Filed on March 30, 2000).
(b) The
Registrant's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2000 (Filed on April 14, 2000), June 30, 2000 (Filed on
July 28, 2000) and September 30, 2000 (Filed on November 9, 2000).
(c) The
Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed with the Commission on October 11, 2000 (File No. 812-11976) and January 10, 2001 (File No.
812-11976), and the Registrant's report on Form 8-K/A filed on January 19, 2001 (File No. 812-11976)(amending the 8-K/A filed on September 22, 2000).
(d) The
description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A, filed with the Commission on March 12,
1996, as updated by the Registrant's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on August 11, 2000 (File No. 812-11976).
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 which
indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement
and to be part hereof from the date of filing such documents.
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 General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") allows for the indemnification of officers, directors, and other corporate
agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. Article XII of the Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation and Article VI of Registrant's bylaws authorize indemnification of Registrant's directors and
officers to the extent and under the circumstances permitted by the DGCL.
The
Registrant has also entered into agreements with its directors and certain officers that will require Registrant, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities
that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by law. The Registrant maintains liability insurance for the benefit of its officers
and directors.
The
above discussion of the DGCL and of Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements is not intended to be exhaustive and is
qualified in its entirety by such statutes, amended and restated certificate of incorporation, bylaws and indemnification agreements.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
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 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.
(2) that,
for purposes 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.
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 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.
Insofar
as the 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 a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered hereunder, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the question has already been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of 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.
