      (b)  None.

      (c)  The description of the Registrant's Class A common stock contained in
           the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the
           Commission under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
           as amended (the "Exchange Act"), on July 11, 2000, including any
           amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
           description.

    Not applicable.
<PAGE>

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

    Reference is made to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation
Law (the "DGCL"), which enables a corporation in its original certificate of
incorporation or an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to eliminate
or limit the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for
violations of the director's fiduciary duty, except (1) for any breach of a
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts
or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (3) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, providing for
liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock
purchases or redemption, or (4) for any transaction from which a director
derived an improper personal benefit.

    Reference also is made to Section 145 of the DGCL which provides that a
corporation may indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, 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 the corporation, by
reason of the fact that the person was an officer, director, employee or agent
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation or
other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses, including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, provided the
officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests
and, for a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and
directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, 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
against the expenses, including attorneys' fees, which the officer or director
actually and reasonably incurred.

    The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant
provides for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law.

    In addition, the Registrant has also entered into employment agreements with
some of its officers and directors which provide for their indemnification with
respect to certain matters.  The Registrant has purchased directors' and
officers' liability insurance for all of its directors and executive officers.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

    Not Applicable.

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 to include any
      material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
      previously disclosed herein or any material change to such information in
      this Registration Statement.

        (2)  That, for the purposes 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 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

                                       3
<PAGE>

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 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 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

Statement:

      (a)  The Registrant's Prospectus filed on August 1, 2000 pursuant to Rule
           424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
           Act"), which contains audited financial statements for the
           Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have been
           filed. (File No. 333-35200).

      (b)  None.

      (c)  The description of the Registrant's Class A common stock contained in
           the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the
           Commission under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
           as amended (the "Exchange Act"), on July 11, 2000, including any
           amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
           description.

    All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 and

prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement

reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date
of filing of such documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated

or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a

statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed,
except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration
Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

    See Item 3(c) above.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

    Not applicable.
Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

    Reference is made to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation
Law (the "DGCL"), which enables a corporation in its original certificate of
incorporation or an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to eliminate
or limit the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for
violations of the director's fiduciary duty, except (1) for any breach of a
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts
or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (3) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, providing for
liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock
purchases or redemption, or (4) for any transaction from which a director
derived an improper personal benefit.

    Reference also is made to Section 145 of the DGCL which provides that a
corporation may indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, 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 the corporation, by
reason of the fact that the person was an officer, director, employee or agent
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation or
other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses, including attorneys' fees,
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by the person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, provided the
officer, director, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best interests
and, for a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and
directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
conditions, 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
against the expenses, including attorneys' fees, which the officer or director
actually and reasonably incurred.

    The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant
provides for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law.

    In addition, the Registrant has also entered into employment agreements with
some of its officers and directors which provide for their indemnification with
respect to certain matters.  The Registrant has purchased directors' and
officers' liability insurance for all of its directors and executive officers.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

    Not Applicable.

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 to include any
      material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
      previously disclosed herein or any material change to such information in
      this Registration Statement.

        (2)  That, for the purposes 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 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

                                       3
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 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 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
