              (b)  All other reports filed with the Commission since December

                   its registration statement on Form 8-A, filed with the
                   Commission on May 30, 1996, pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
                   Exchange Act, and any amendments or reports filed for the

ITEM 6.       INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

              Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against
certain liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act, provided they act in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. The Registrant's By-laws require the Registrant to indemnify its
officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

              Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to limit or eliminate its directors' liability to the corporation or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duties, other
than for (a) breaches of the duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (b) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, (c) unlawful payments of
dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or (d) transactions from which a
director derives an improper personal benefit. The Registrant's Certificate of
Incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of the directors to the
Registrant and to the Registrant's stockholders to the fullest extent permitted
by Delaware law.

              Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes
a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against
any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity,
or arising out of his status as such. The Registrant's By-laws provide that
the Registrant may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or agent of
Primix against any liability that may be asserted against him. The Registrant
carries liability insurance covering its directors and officers for claims
asserted against them or incurred by them in such capacity, including claims
brought under the Securities Act.

              The foregoing provisions and agreements could reduce the legal
remedies available to the Registrant and its stockholders against its directors
and officers.

ITEM 9.       UNDERTAKINGS.

              (a)     The Registrant hereby undertake:

                      (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
                              the registration statement. Notwithstanding the
                              foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
                              securities offered (if the dollar value of
                              securities would not exceed that which was
                              registered) and any deviation from the low or high
                              and 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 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 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) herein 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 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 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 Registrant hereby undertake that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
its 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 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 the Registrant's directors, officers
and controlling persons 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 its director, officer or
controlling person 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.

reference the documents listed in (a) through (c) below, which have previously
been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"):

              (a)  The Registrant's prospectus, filed with the Commission on
                   July 3, 1996 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act;

              (b)  All other reports filed with the Commission since December
                   31, 1995 pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
                   Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"); and

              (c)  The description of the Registrant's Common Stock contained in
                   its registration statement on Form 8-A, filed with the
                   Commission on May 30, 1996, pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
                   Exchange Act, and any amendments or reports filed for the

              In addition, all documents subsequently filed with the Commission
by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a) and 13(c), Section 14 and Section
15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment
which indicates that all securities offered hereunder have been sold or which

incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part hereof
from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document
incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be
modified or superseded for purposes hereof to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is
incorporated or 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.

                                       2
ITEM 6.       INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

              Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against
certain liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act, provided they act in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. The Registrant's By-laws require the Registrant to indemnify its
officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

              Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to limit or eliminate its directors' liability to the corporation or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duties, other
than for (a) breaches of the duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (b) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, (c) unlawful payments of
dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or (d) transactions from which a
director derives an improper personal benefit. The Registrant's Certificate of
Incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of the directors to the
Registrant and to the Registrant's stockholders to the fullest extent permitted
by Delaware law.

              Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes
a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against
any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity,
or arising out of his status as such. The Registrant's By-laws provide that
the Registrant may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or agent of
Primix against any liability that may be asserted against him. The Registrant
carries liability insurance covering its directors and officers for claims
asserted against them or incurred by them in such capacity, including claims
brought under the Securities Act.

              The foregoing provisions and agreements could reduce the legal
remedies available to the Registrant and its stockholders against its directors
and officers.

ITEM 7.       EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

              Not applicable.

ITEM 9.       UNDERTAKINGS.

              (a)     The Registrant hereby undertake:

                      (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
                              the registration statement. Notwithstanding the
                              foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of
                              securities offered (if the dollar value of
                              securities would not exceed that which was
                              registered) and any deviation from the low or high
                              and 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 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 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) herein 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 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 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 Registrant hereby undertake that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
its 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 that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                       4
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to the Registrant's directors, officers
and controlling persons 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 its director, officer or
controlling person 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.
