provides, in part, that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened
to be made a party or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding by reason
of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or
is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture,

liability and loss (including attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise

incurred or suffered by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding; provided, however, that if the person seeking indemnification
initiated the proceeding in respect to which he or she is seeking
indemnification from the Registrant, the Registrant shall provide such
indemnification only if such proceeding was authorized by the Registrant&#146;s
Board of Directors.&#160; The right to
indemnification includes the right to be paid expenses incurred in defending
any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however,
that if the Delaware General Corporation Law so requires, the payment of such
expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only
upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined that such director or officer is not entitled to indemnification.</font></p>

as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be

advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.&#160; 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.</p>

Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Section 102 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law allows a corporation to eliminate or limit the
personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, subject to certain
exceptions.  Article NINTH of the
Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the
personal liability of the Registrant's directors to the Registrant or its
2
stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of a director's fiduciary duty, except for liability:  (1) for breach of a director's duty of
loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders; (2) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or involving intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law;
(3) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or (4) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Section 145 of the
Delaware General Corporation Law grants to each corporation organized
thereunder the power to indemnify its officers and directors for certain
acts.  Article TENTH of the Registrant's
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation sets forth the extent to
which officers and directors of the Registrant may be indemnified against any
liabilities which they may incur in their capacities as directors or officers
of the Registrant.  Article TENTH
provides, in part, that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened
to be made a party or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding by reason
of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or
is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit
plans, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant, to the fullest
extent authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, against all expense,
liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise
taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
incurred or suffered by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding; provided, however, that if the person seeking indemnification
initiated the proceeding in respect to which he or she is seeking
indemnification from the Registrant, the Registrant shall provide such
indemnification only if such proceeding was authorized by the Registrant's
Board of Directors.  The right to
indemnification includes the right to be paid expenses incurred in defending
any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however,
that if the Delaware General Corporation Law so requires, the payment of such
expenses in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding shall be made only
upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such
director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined that such director or officer is not entitled to indemnification.

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;
(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 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
3
offering
range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) 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:
(A) Paragraphs
(a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above 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 Securities and Exchange Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section
13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement; and
(B)
Paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the
Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3 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 Securities and Exchange Commission by
the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that
are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, or is contained in
a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the
Registration Statement.
(2)
That,
for the purpose 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.
(b)
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 (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 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 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 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
