  <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or its
  stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for: (i)&nbsp;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)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. Each
  of the Registrant&#146;s directors is subject to liability for: (i)&nbsp;any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
  or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions under Section&nbsp;174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv)&nbsp;any transaction from which the director derived an
  improper personal benefit. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As permitted by Delaware law, the Registrant&#146;s amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes a provision

  <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made,
  parties 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 such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an
  officer, director, employee, or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director, employee, or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including
  attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
  reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation&#146;s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful, except that no indemnification is
  permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must
  indemnify him or her against the expenses that such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As permitted by Delaware law, the
  Registrant&#146;s amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Article VI of the Registrant&#146;s amended and restated bylaws
  provides: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit
  or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or such person&#146;s testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or serves or served at the
  request of the Corporation any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee. Expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees, incurred by any such person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid or reimbursed by the Corporation
  promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation. The rights provided to any person by this <FONT
  STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-law</FONT> shall be enforceable against the Corporation by such person who shall be presumed to have relied upon it in serving or continuing to serve as a director, officer or employee as provided above. The rights

  STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-</FONT> laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers,
  employees, or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent permitted by law. No amendment of this <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-law</FONT> shall impair the rights of any person arising at any time with respect to
  events occurring prior to such amendment. For purposes of this <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">by-law,</FONT> the term &#147;Corporation&#148; shall include any predecessor of the Corporation and any constituent corporation (including any
  constituent of a constituent) absorbed by the Corporation in a consolidation or merger; the term &#147;other enterprise&#148; shall include any corporation, company, partnership, joint venture, trust or employee benefit plan; service &#147;at the
  request of the Corporation&#148; shall include service as a director, officer or employee of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer or employee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
  participants or beneficiaries; any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to be indemnifiable expenses; and action by a person with respect to an employee benefit plan which such person reasonably
  believes to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of such plan shall be deemed to be action not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.&#148; </P>

  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
  Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of its directors to the corporation or its
  stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for: (i) 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) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. Each
  of the Registrant's directors is subject to liability for: (i) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
  or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or (iv) any transaction from which the director derived an
  improper personal benefit.
  As permitted by Delaware law, the Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes a provision
  that eliminates the personal liability of the Registrant's directors to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.
  Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made,
  parties 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 such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person was an
  officer, director, employee, or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director, employee, or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including
  attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
  reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful, except that no indemnification is
  permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the corporation must
  indemnify him or her against the expenses that such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.
  As permitted by Delaware law, the
  Registrant's amended and restated bylaws provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law. Article VI of the Registrant's amended and restated bylaws
  provides:
  "The Corporation shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit
  or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or such person's testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of the Corporation or serves or served at the
  request of the Corporation any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee. Expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by any such person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid or reimbursed by the Corporation
  promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation. The rights provided to any person by this
  by-law
  shall be enforceable against the Corporation by such person who shall be presumed to have relied upon it in serving or continuing to serve as a director, officer or employee as provided above. The rights
  conferred on any person by this Section 6.4
  shall not be exclusive of any other right which such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate of incorporation, these
  by-
  laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts with any or all of its directors, officers,
  employees, or agents respecting indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent permitted by law. No amendment of this
  by-law
  shall impair the rights of any person arising at any time with respect to
  events occurring prior to such amendment. For purposes of this
  by-law,
  the term "Corporation" shall include any predecessor of the Corporation and any constituent corporation (including any
  constituent of a constituent) absorbed by the Corporation in a consolidation or merger; the term "other enterprise" shall include any corporation, company, partnership, joint venture, trust or employee benefit plan; service "at the
  request of the Corporation" shall include service as a director, officer or employee of the Corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer or employee with respect to an employee benefit plan, its
  participants or beneficiaries; any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to be indemnifiable expenses; and action by a person with respect to an employee benefit plan which such person reasonably
  believes to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of such plan shall be deemed to be action not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation."
  The Registrant has also obtained a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance for its
  directors and officers to insure directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances.

  Not applicable.
  Item 8.
  Exhibits
  See the Exhibit Index attached hereto.
  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 this 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 this 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 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 this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
  provided, however
  ,
  that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in 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 this 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 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.
  (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 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 and 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.
