permitted by the Delaware General Corporation law, as amended (the &#147;DGCL&#148;), the
Company&#146;s Fourth Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides
that the Company&#146;s directors shall not be liable to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it now exists or as it may&nbsp;be
amended. As of the date of this registration statement, the DGCL permits
limitations on liability for a director&#146;s breach of fiduciary duty other than
liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the Company
or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174
of the DGCL, or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit. In addition, the Company&#146;s bylaws provide that
the Company shall indemnify all directors, officers, employees and agents of
the Company for acts performed on behalf of the Company in such capacity to the
fullest extent permitted by law.</font></p>

as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may&nbsp;be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed 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.</font></p>

arising under the Securities Act may&nbsp;be permitted to directors, officers
and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Company 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 Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of
the Company 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 Company will, unless in the opinion of 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 Officers and Directors
As
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation law, as amended (the "DGCL"), the
Company's Fourth Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides
that the Company's directors shall not be liable to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to
the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it now exists or as it may be
amended. As of the date of this registration statement, the DGCL permits
limitations on liability for a director's breach of fiduciary duty other than
liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company
or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174
of the DGCL, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit. In addition, the Company's bylaws provide that
the Company shall indemnify all directors, officers, employees and agents of
the Company for acts performed on behalf of the Company in such capacity to the
fullest extent permitted by law.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed 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
addition, the Company has purchased directors and officers liability insurance.

Undertakings
(a)
The Company 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 the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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; and
(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 Company hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of
the Company'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.
(h)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers
and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Company 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 Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of
the Company 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 Company will, unless in the opinion of 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.
