Registrant&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware authorizes and empowers each Delaware corporation
to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against liabilities incurred in connection with, and related expenses resulting from, any claim, action or suit brought against any such person as a result of his or her relationship with
the Registrant, provided that such persons acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant in connection with the acts or events on which such claim, action or
suit is based. The finding of either civil or criminal liability on the part of such person in connection with such acts or events is not necessarily determinative of the question of whether such person has met the required standard of conduct and
is, accordingly, entitled to be indemnified. The foregoing statements are subject to the detailed provisions of Section&nbsp;145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV

another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of the Registrant or was a director or officer of a corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the Registrant or of another enterprise at the request
of such predecessor corporation shall be indemnified by the Registrant in accordance with and to the full extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Article VI of the Registrant&#146;s Bylaws facilitates enforcement of
the right of directors and officers to be indemnified by establishing such right as a contract right pursuant to which the person entitled thereto may bring suit as if the indemnification provisions of the Bylaws were set forth in a separate written
contract between the Registrant and the director or officer. Article VI of the Bylaws also permits the Registrant to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in
such capacity, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. The Registrant currently has secured such insurance on behalf of its officers and
directors. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></DIV> <DIV STYLE="text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000">The Registrant has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and officers, in addition to

judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceedings, including any action by or in the right of the Registrant, arising out of such person&#146;s services as a director or officer of the Registrant, any
subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Registrant. </FONT></DIV>

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3.
Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
There are hereby incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement the following documents and information previously filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission"):
1.  The Registrant's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2002, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

Item
5.
Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The consolidated
financial statements and schedule of Registrant appearing in Registrant's Form 10-K for the year ended March 30, 2002, have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP independent auditors, to the extent indicated in their report thereon that is
included therein and incorporated herein by reference.
2
Such consolidated financial statements are incorporated herein by reference in reliance upon such report given by the authority of such firm as
experts in accounting and auditing.
Stephanie Lucie, Vice President and Assistant Secretary of the Registrant,
will pass upon the validity of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby for the Registrant. Ms. Lucie is an employee of the Registrant. As of November 8, 2002, Ms. Lucie directly held 3,500 shares of Registrant's Common Stock
and indirectly held 1,000 shares of Registrant's Common Stock (held by spouse). Ms. Lucie also directly held options to purchase 60,500 shares of Common Stock (of which 9,582 shares are exercisable within the next 60 days), and indirectly held
options to purchase 15,000 shares of Common Stock (held by spouse, of which no shares are exercisable within the next 60 days).
Item
6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The
Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware authorizes and empowers each Delaware corporation
to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against liabilities incurred in connection with, and related expenses resulting from, any claim, action or suit brought against any such person as a result of his or her relationship with
the Registrant, provided that such persons acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Registrant in connection with the acts or events on which such claim, action or
suit is based. The finding of either civil or criminal liability on the part of such person in connection with such acts or events is not necessarily determinative of the question of whether such person has met the required standard of conduct and
is, accordingly, entitled to be indemnified. The foregoing statements are subject to the detailed provisions of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
The Registrant's Bylaws provide that each person who at any time is or was a director or officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving as director or officer of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise at the request of the Registrant or was a director or officer of a corporation which was a predecessor corporation of the Registrant or of another enterprise at the request
of such predecessor corporation shall be indemnified by the Registrant in accordance with and to the full extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Article VI of the Registrant's Bylaws facilitates enforcement of
the right of directors and officers to be indemnified by establishing such right as a contract right pursuant to which the person entitled thereto may bring suit as if the indemnification provisions of the Bylaws were set forth in a separate written
contract between the Registrant and the director or officer. Article VI of the Bylaws also permits the Registrant to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in
such capacity, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the General Corporation Law of Delaware. The Registrant currently has secured such insurance on behalf of its officers and
directors.
The Registrant has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors and officers, in addition to
indemnification provided for in the Registrant's Bylaws. Subject to certain conditions, these agreements, among other things, indemnify the Registrant's directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorney's fees),
judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceedings, including any action by or in the right of the Registrant, arising out of such person's services as a director or officer of the Registrant, any
subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Registrant.

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 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 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 Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee plan's annual report pursuant to Section 13(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 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
4
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.
