6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors</font></b></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Company is a Delaware
corporation. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended,
provides for the indemnification of the Company&#146;s officers, directors,
employees and agents under certain circumstances as follows:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(a) A corporation
shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made 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 the person 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, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&#146;
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if
the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe the person&#146;s 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, of itself, create a presumption
that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that the person&#146;s conduct was unlawful.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(b) A corporation
shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or
in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of
the fact that the person 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, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a
manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made
in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court
of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(c) To the extent
that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection therewith.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(d) Any
indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered
by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific
case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former
director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the
person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a)
and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a
person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a
majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or
proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such
directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than
a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so
direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the
stockholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(e) Expenses
(including attorneys&#146; fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may
be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such
director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as
authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees) incurred
by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid
upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(f) The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses
may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person&#146;s
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(g) A corporation
shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who

of this section, references to &#147;the corporation&#148; shall include, in addition to
the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any
constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if
its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to
indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person
who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent
corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same
position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving
corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent
corporation if its separate existence had continued.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(i) For purposes
of this section, references to &#147;other enterprises&#148; shall include employee
benefit plans; references to &#147;fines&#148; shall include any excise taxes assessed on
a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to &#147;serving at
the request of the corporation&#148; shall include any service as a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or
involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to
an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who
acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in
the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan
shall be deemed to have acted in a manner &#147;not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation&#148; as referred to in this section.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(j) The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified,
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or
agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators
of such a person.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;text-indent:39.6pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(k) The Court of
Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all
actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this
section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a
corporation&#146;s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We have included
indemnification provisions in our bylaws to provide protection for our
directors and officers consistent with Delaware law. Our bylaws provide that we
will indemnify each party against all expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees,
actually and reasonably incurred by such director in connection with any
proceeding brought or threatened against such director in that director&#146;s
capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent. However, no indemnification
for expenses will be made under the agreement (a) on account of any suit in
which a final judgment is rendered against the indemnified party for an
accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by him of our securities
pursuant to the provisions of section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, or
similar provisions of any federal, state, or local law, or on account of any
suit in which a final judgment is rendered against the indemnified party for
violation of Section 10(b) or Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act, or
similar provisions of any federal, state, or local law; (b) on account of the
indemnified party&#146;s conduct that is finally adjudged by a court to have
constituted intentional fraud, recklessness, or willful misconduct; (c) if a
final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter shall determine
that such indemnification is not lawful; (d) to the extent that the indemnified
party has voluntarily become a party to any proceeding without our written
consent; or (e) to the extent that the indemnified party has been reimbursed by
insurance.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Expenses incurred by the
indemnified party (including expenses for which he is ultimately expected to be
reimbursed through insurance) pursuant to any proceeding will be paid by us in
advance of any final disposition of the proceeding upon the written request of
the indemnified party and his undertaking in writing to repay such amount if he
is ultimately reimbursed such amount by insurance or if it is ultimately
determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. Indemnification provided
by our bylaws is not exclusive of any rights to which the director may be
entitled under our bylaws, any agreement, any vote of shareholders or
directors, applicable law, any directors&#146; and officers&#146; insurance policy, or
otherwise. With respect to certain liabilities incurred under the Securities
Act, our obligation may be subject to undertakings contained in various
registration statements filed by us pursuant to the Securities Act, as those
undertakings relate to the possible need for court review of indemnification
for these liabilities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 36.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(1)To file, during any period in which offers or sales
are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 72.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(i) To include, any prospectus required by Section

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 72.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(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) under the
Securities Act 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 &#147;Calculation of Registration Fee&#148; table in the effective registration
statement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 72.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(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) 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
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt 36.0pt;text-indent:36.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">(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.</font></p>

where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;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.</font></p>

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 previsions, or otherwise, the Registrant 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 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.</font></p>

6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors
The Company is a Delaware
corporation. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended,
provides for the indemnification of the Company's officers, directors,
employees and agents under certain circumstances as follows:
(a) A corporation
shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made 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 the person 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, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if
the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe the person's 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, of itself, create a presumption
that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful.
(b) A corporation
shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or
in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of
the fact that the person 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, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense
or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a
manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made
in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have
been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court
of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
(c) To the extent
that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection therewith.
(d) Any
indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered
by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific
case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former
director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the
person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a)
and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a
person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a
majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or
proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such
directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than
a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so
direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the
stockholders.
(e) Expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may
be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action,
suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such
director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined
that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as
authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred
by former directors and officers or other employees and agents may be so paid
upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.
(f) The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses
may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.
(g) A corporation
shall have power 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, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by
such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person's status as
such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such
person against such liability under this section.
3
(h) For purposes
of this section, references to "the corporation" shall include, in addition to
the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any
constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if
its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to
indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person
who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent
corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same
position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving
corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent
corporation if its separate existence had continued.
(i) For purposes
of this section, references to "other enterprises" shall include employee
benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise taxes assessed on
a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to "serving at
the request of the corporation" shall include any service as a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or
involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to
an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who
acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in
the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan
shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation" as referred to in this section.
(j) The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified,
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or
agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators
of such a person.
(k) The Court of
Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all
actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this
section or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a
corporation's obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys' fees).
We have included
indemnification provisions in our bylaws to provide protection for our
directors and officers consistent with Delaware law. Our bylaws provide that we
will indemnify each party against all expenses, including attorneys' fees,
actually and reasonably incurred by such director in connection with any
proceeding brought or threatened against such director in that director's
capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent. However, no indemnification
for expenses will be made under the agreement (a) on account of any suit in
which a final judgment is rendered against the indemnified party for an
accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by him of our securities
pursuant to the provisions of section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, or
similar provisions of any federal, state, or local law, or on account of any
suit in which a final judgment is rendered against the indemnified party for
violation of Section 10(b) or Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act, or
similar provisions of any federal, state, or local law; (b) on account of the
indemnified party's conduct that is finally adjudged by a court to have
constituted intentional fraud, recklessness, or willful misconduct; (c) if a
final decision by a court having jurisdiction in the matter shall determine
that such indemnification is not lawful; (d) to the extent that the indemnified
party has voluntarily become a party to any proceeding without our written
consent; or (e) to the extent that the indemnified party has been reimbursed by
insurance.
Expenses incurred by the
indemnified party (including expenses for which he is ultimately expected to be
reimbursed through insurance) pursuant to any proceeding will be paid by us in
advance of any final disposition of the proceeding upon the written request of
the indemnified party and his undertaking in writing to repay such amount if he
is ultimately reimbursed such amount by insurance or if it is ultimately
determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. Indemnification provided
by our bylaws is not exclusive of any rights to which the director may be
entitled under our bylaws, any agreement, any vote of shareholders or
directors, applicable law, any directors' and officers' insurance policy, or
otherwise. With respect to certain liabilities incurred under the Securities
Act, our obligation may be subject to undertakings contained in various
registration statements filed by us pursuant to the Securities Act, as those
undertakings relate to the possible need for court review of indemnification
for these liabilities.

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 offering range may be reflected in the
form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the
Securities Act 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) 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
Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in 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 previsions, or otherwise, the Registrant 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 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.
