in good faith, (b)&nbsp;the director reasonably believed that his or her
conduct was in, or not opposed to, the corporation&#146;s best interests; and (c)&nbsp;in

indemnify a director under Section&nbsp;16-10a-902 if the director was adjudged
liable to the corporation in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation

of the UBCA provides that, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, a
Utah corporation shall indemnify a director who was successful, on the merits
or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding, or in the defense of any claim,

of the UBCA, a Utah corporation may&nbsp;pay for or reimburse the reasonable
expenses incurred by a director in advance of final disposition of the
proceeding if the director furnishes the corporation a written affirmation of
his or her good faith belief that the director has met the applicable standard
of conduct, provides a written undertaking personally binding the director to
pay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet the
standard of conduct, and a determination is made that the facts then known to
those making a determination would not preclude indemnification. The director&#146;s
undertaking need not be secured and may&nbsp;be accepted without reference to
financial ability to make repayment. Section&nbsp;16-10a-906 prohibits a
corporation from making any discretionary indemnification, payment or
reimbursement of expenses unless a determination has been made that the
director has met the applicable standard of conduct.</font></p>

Indemnification of
Directors and Officers
Section 16-10a-841
of the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act (the "UBCA") allows a Utah
corporation to provide in its articles of incorporation or by shareholder
resolution or in its bylaws for the elimination or limitation of personal
liability of a director to the corporation or to its shareholders for monetary
damages for any action or omission, as a director, except (i) liability
for a financial benefit received by a director to which he was not entitled, (ii) intentional
infliction of harm on the corporation or the shareholders, (iii) an
unlawful distribution to shareholders in violation of the UBCA, and (iv) intentional
violation of criminal law.
2
Section 16-10a-902
of the UBCA provides that a Utah corporation may indemnify any individual
made a party to a proceeding because he or she is or was a director, against
liability incurred in the proceeding, if: (a) the director's conduct was
in good faith, (b) the director reasonably believed that his or her
conduct was in, or not opposed to, the corporation's best interests; and (c) in
the case of any criminal proceeding, the director had no reasonable cause to
believe such conduct was unlawful; provided, however, that a corporation may not
indemnify a director under Section 16-10a-902 if the director was adjudged
liable to the corporation in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation
or adjudged liable for deriving an improper personal benefit. All
indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses only.
Section 16-10a-903
of the UBCA provides that, unless limited by its articles of incorporation, a
Utah corporation shall indemnify a director who was successful, on the merits
or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding, or in the defense of any claim,
issue or matter in the proceeding, to which the director was a party because he
or she is or was a director of the corporation, against reasonable expenses
incurred in connection with the proceeding or claim with respect to which the
director has been successful.
In
addition to the indemnification provided by Sections 902 and 903, Section 16-10a-905
of the UBCA provides that, unless otherwise limited by a corporation's articles
of incorporation, a director may apply for indemnification to the court
conducting the proceeding or to another court of competent jurisdiction.
Under Section 16-10a-904
of the UBCA, a Utah corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable
expenses incurred by a director in advance of final disposition of the
proceeding if the director furnishes the corporation a written affirmation of
his or her good faith belief that the director has met the applicable standard
of conduct, provides a written undertaking personally binding the director to
pay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet the
standard of conduct, and a determination is made that the facts then known to
those making a determination would not preclude indemnification. The director's
undertaking need not be secured and may be accepted without reference to
financial ability to make repayment. Section 16-10a-906 prohibits a
corporation from making any discretionary indemnification, payment or
reimbursement of expenses unless a determination has been made that the
director has met the applicable standard of conduct.
The
determination required under Sections 16-10a-904 and 16-10a-906 of the UBCA
must be made as follows: (1) by a majority vote of a quorum of the board
of directors who are not parties to the proceeding; (2) if a quorum cannot
be obtained as contemplated by (1), above, by a majority vote of a committee of
two or more members of the board of directors who are not parties to the
proceeding and are designated by the board of directors; (3) by special
legal counsel selected by a quorum of the board of directors or its committee
composed of persons determined in the manner prescribed in (1) or (2),
above, or if a disinterested quorum of the board of directors or committee is
not possible, then selected by a majority vote of the full board of directors,
or (4) by a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote by person or
proxy at a meeting.
Section 16-10a-907
of the UBCA provides that, unless a corporation's articles of incorporation
provide otherwise, (i) an officer of the corporation is entitled to
mandatory indemnification under Section 903 and is entitled to apply for
court-ordered indemnification under Section 905, in each case to the same
extent as a director, (ii) a corporation may indemnify and advance
expenses to an officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the corporation to the
same extent as a director, and (iii) a corporation may also indemnify
and advance expenses to an officer, employee, fiduciary or agent who is not a
director to a greater extent, if not inconsistent with public policy, and if
provided for by its articles of incorporation, bylaws, general or specific
action of its board of directors, or contract.
Section 16-10a-908
of the UBCA provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain
liability insurance on behalf of a person who is or was a director, officer,
employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation or who, while serving as a
director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation, is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee, fiduciary, or agent of another foreign or domestic corporation or
other person, or of an employee benefit plan against liability asserted against
or incurred by the individual in that capacity or arising from his status as
such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or
her against the same liability under Sections 902, 903 or 907 of the UBCA.
Section 16-10a-909
of the UBCA provides that a provision treating a corporation's indemnification
of or advance for expenses to, directors that is contained in its articles of
incorporation or bylaws, in
3
a resolution of its
stockholders or board of directors or in a contract, (except an insurance
policy), or otherwise, is valid only if and to the extent the provision is not
inconsistent with Sections 901 through 909 of the Revised Act. If the articles
of incorporation limit indemnification or advancement of expenses,
indemnification and advancement of expenses are valid only to the extent not
inconsistent with the articles.
The Company's
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that, to the fullest
extent permitted by the Revised Act or any other applicable law, a director of
the Company will not be personally liable to the Company or its shareholders
for monetary damages for any action taken or failure to take any action as a
director, except liability for (a) the amount of a financial benefit
received by a director to which he is not entitled, (b) an intentional
infliction of harm on the Company or its shareholders, (c) a violation of Section 16-10a-842
of the Revised Act (regarding unlawful distributions) or (d) an intentional
violation of criminal law.
The
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation also provide that, to the
fullest extent permitted by the Revised Act or other applicable law, (a) the
Company will indemnify a person made or threatened to be made a party to any
action for all liabilities and expenses incurred by such person in connection with
such action because such person is or was a director or officer of the Company
or served at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner,
trustee, employee, fiduciary or agent of another entity and (b) the
Company will advance expenses to such person in advance of a final disposition
of such action.
The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
further provide that neither an amendment nor repeal of the such provisions of the
Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, nor the adoption of a
provision of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation that
is inconsistent with such provisions, will eliminate or reduce the effect of
such provisions with respect to any matter that occurs or action or proceeding
that accrues or arises prior to such amendment or repeal of such provisions or
the adoption of a provision that is inconsistent with such provisions.
The
Company's Bylaws require the Company to indemnify any individual who is made a
party to a proceeding because the individual is or was a director or officer of
the Company against any liability or expenses incurred in connection with such
proceeding to the maximum extent allowed under Utah law, and to advance
expenses to any such individual.
The Company has also entered into Indemnification
Agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. In such
agreements, the Company agrees to hold harmless and indemnify, including with
respect to expenses, the respective officer or director to the fullest extent
authorized or permitted by the Revised Act, the Company's Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation or the Company's Bylaws. The Company also agrees to pay
the entire amount of liabilities and expenses, without requiring the
contribution of the respective officer or director, in any action in which the
Company is held jointly liable with such officer or director. The
Indemnification Agreements further require the Company to advance expenses to
such officer or director to the maximum extent as may be permitted under
the Revised Act.
The
foregoing description is necessarily general and does not describe all details
regarding the indemnification of officers, directors or controlling persons of
the Company.

Incorporated
  herein by reference to the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
  (File No. 000-21116) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
  on March 14, 2006.
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, as amended (the "Act");
(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 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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (§230.424(b) of this
chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
"Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
statement;
(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) shall not apply to information contained in periodic reports
filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement.
(2)
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the 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 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 this 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 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the 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
5
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 Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to
believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8, and
has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the
