  8.51 of Chapter 156D of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

  believed that his conduct was in the best interest of the corporation or that

  shall not be liable under an authorized provision of the corporation&#146;s articles

  Chapter 156D of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
  authorizes a corporation to indemnify an officer of the corporation who is a
  party to a proceeding because he is an officer of the corporation to the same
  extent as a director and, if he is an officer but not a director, to such
  further extent as may be provided by the articles of organization, bylaws, a
  resolution of the board of directors or contract except for liability arising

  pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and,
  where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
  pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is

  <P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="TIMES NEW ROMAN">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;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 Commission such indemnification is against
  public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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&#160; question whether such indemnification by it
  is against public policy as&#160; expressed
  in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication
  of&#160; such issue.</FONT></P>

  Item
  5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
  The
  legality of the shares of Common Stock being registered pursuant to this
  Registration Statement will be passed upon for the Registrant by Paul T.
  Dacier, Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Registrant.  Mr. Dacier holds options to purchase Common
  Stock, owns shares of Common Stock and is eligible to participate in the
  Registrant's equity incentive plans, including the 2003 Plan and the 1989 Plan.
  Item
  6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers
  Section
  8.51 of Chapter 156D of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
  authorizes a Massachusetts corporation to indemnify an individual who is a
  party to a proceeding because he is a director against liability incurred in
  the proceeding if (1)(i) he conducted himself in good faith, (ii) he reasonably
  believed that his conduct was in the best interest of the corporation or that
  his conduct was at least not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
  and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to
  believe his conduct was unlawful or (2) he engaged in conduct for which he
  shall not be liable under an authorized provision of the corporation's articles
  of organization.  Section 8.56 of
  Chapter 156D of the General Laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
  authorizes a corporation to indemnify an officer of the corporation who is a
  party to a proceeding because he is an officer of the corporation to the same
  extent as a director and, if he is an officer but not a director, to such
  further extent as may be provided by the articles of organization, bylaws, a
  resolution of the board of directors or contract except for liability arising
  out of acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
  misconduct or a knowing violation of the law.
  The
  Registrant's Restated Articles of Organization include a provision that
  eliminates the personal liability of each of its directors for monetary damages
  for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the extent provided by applicable
  law, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability, except for
  liability, to the extent required by Section 13(b)(1 1/2) or any successor
  provision of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law, (a) for any breach of
  the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (b) for
  acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or
  a knowing violation of law, (c) under sections 61 or 62 of the Massachusetts
  Business Corporation Law, or (d) for any transaction from which the director
  derived an improper personal benefit.
  2
  In
  addition, the Registrant's Amended and Restated By-laws provide that (a) the
  Registrant shall, to the extent legally permissible, indemnify each of its
  directors and officers (including persons who act at its request as directors,
  officers or trustees of another organization or in any capacity with respect to
  any employee benefit plan) against all liabilities and expenses, except with
  respect to any matter as to which such director or officer shall have been
  adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable
  belief that such individual's action was in the best interests of the
  Registrant or, to the extent that such matter relates to service with respect
  to any employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or
  beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan; (b) the Registrant is authorized
  to pay expenses, including counsel fees, from time to time reasonably incurred
  by any director or officer in connection with the defense or disposition of any
  such action, suit or other proceeding in advance of the final disposition
  thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by such director or officer to repay to
  the Registrant the amounts so paid by the Registrant if it is ultimately
  determined that indemnification for such expenses is not authorized under the
  Amended and Restated Bylaws; (c) the right of indemnification under the Amended
  and Restated By-laws shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to
  which any director or officer may be entitled by contract or otherwise under
  law.
  The
  Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and
  executive officers providing for the indemnification of such director or
  executive officer, as applicable, to the extent legally permissible and the
  payment of expenses, including counsel fees reasonably incurred in connection
  with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding in
  which such individual may be involved by reason of such individual being or
  having been a director or officer of the Registrant.

  Item
  9.   Undertakings
  (a)         The
  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;
  (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;
  (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;
  3
  provided, however
  , that paragraphs
  (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form
  S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and 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 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
  reference in the registration statement.
  (2)
   That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
  1933, 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
  Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report
  pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and,
  where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
  pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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.
  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 Commission such indemnification is against
  public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication
  of  such issue.
