in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in

than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact
that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Section&nbsp;102(b)(7)&nbsp;of
the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its
certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for
any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation 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) for
payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or
(iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit. The Company&#146;s certificate of incorporation provides for such
limitation of liability.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Section&nbsp;145 further
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,
or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability
asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, arising out of
his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the
power to indemnify him under Section&nbsp;145. Policies of insurance are
maintained by the Company under which its directors and officers are insured,
within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policies, against
certain expenses in connection with the defense of, and certain liabilities
which might be imposed as result of, actions, suits or proceedings to which
they are parties by reason of being or having been such directors or officers.</font></p>

indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 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.</font></p>

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and
Officers.
Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may
indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in
which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been
a director, officer, employee of or agent to the Company. The statute provides
that it is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification
may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise.
Article VII of the
Company's bylaws provides that the Company shall indemnify any person who was
or is a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other
than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact
that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is
or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise (all such persons being referred to hereinafter as an "Indemnitee"),
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with
such action, suit, or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any
action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon
a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, or itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that such person had
reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Section 102(b)(7) of
the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its
certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be
personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for
any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for
payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or
(iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit. The Company's certificate of incorporation provides for such
limitation of liability.
Section 145 further
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,
or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability
asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, arising out of
his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the
power to indemnify him under Section 145. Policies of insurance are
maintained by the Company under which its directors and officers are insured,
within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policies, against
certain expenses in connection with the defense of, and certain liabilities
which might be imposed as result of, actions, suits or proceedings to which
they are parties by reason of being or having been such directors or officers.

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
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% 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 the undertakings set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above
do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those clauses is contained in periodic reports filed with or
furnished to the SEC by the registrant
3
pursuant to Section 13
or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "Exchange Act"), that are incorporated by reference in this 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
the registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) 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 this 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.
(5) That, insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 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 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.
