<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 10pt; font-variant: normal; margin: 0pt; text-indent: 36pt;">The Company&#8217;s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the &#8220;Charter&#8221;) limits the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#8220;DGCL&#8221;). In addition, the Company&#8217;s amended Bylaws (the &#8220;Bylaws&#8221;) provide that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its current directors and executive officers and expects to enter into a similar agreement with any new directors or executive officers.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a Delaware corporation 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 such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or other entity. In accordance with the DGCL, the Company&#8217;s Charter and Bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify and advance expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, to each person who is or was a director or officer of the Company, or who serves or served as such for any other entity or organization at the request of the Company (each, an &#8220;Indemnitee&#8221;).</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">Under the DGCL, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits in defense of a suit or proceeding brought against him or her by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, or agent of the Company, or serves or served as such for any other entity or organization at the request of the Company, the Company shall indemnify him or her against expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">An Indemnitee may be indemnified under the DGCL against both (a) expenses, including attorneys&#8217; fees, and (b) judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">In defense of a suit brought by or in the right of the Company, where the suit is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under the DGCL against expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred in the defense or settlement of the suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to be liable to the Company, he or she cannot be indemnified unless a court determines that he or she is fully and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">Also under the DGCL, expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the suit, action, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. The Company may also advance expenses incurred by other employees and agents of the Company upon such terms and conditions, if any, that the Company deems appropriate.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of the DGCL and the Company&#8217;s governing documents dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and it does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of those sections of the DGCL referenced above and the Company&#8217;s governing documents.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">Additionally, the Company has an insurance policy covering its officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.</p>

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 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#8220;Calculation of Registration Fee&#8221; table in the effective Registration Statement;</p>

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.</p>

Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
1
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Indemnification
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Charter") limits the liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). In addition, the Company's amended Bylaws (the "Bylaws") provide that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by law. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its current directors and executive officers and expects to enter into a similar agreement with any new directors or executive officers.
Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a Delaware corporation 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 such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or other entity. In accordance with the DGCL, the Company's Charter and Bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify and advance expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, to each person who is or was a director or officer of the Company, or who serves or served as such for any other entity or organization at the request of the Company (each, an "Indemnitee").
Under the DGCL, to the extent that an Indemnitee is successful on the merits in defense of a suit or proceeding brought against him or her by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, or agent of the Company, or serves or served as such for any other entity or organization at the request of the Company, the Company shall indemnify him or her against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action.
An Indemnitee may be indemnified under the DGCL against both (a) expenses, including attorneys' fees, and (b) judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
In defense of a suit brought by or in the right of the Company, where the suit is settled, an Indemnitee may be indemnified under the DGCL against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in the defense or settlement of the suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company except that if the Indemnitee is adjudged to be liable to the Company, he or she cannot be indemnified unless a court determines that he or she is fully and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses.
Also under the DGCL, expenses incurred by an officer or director in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of the suit, action, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. The Company may also advance expenses incurred by other employees and agents of the Company upon such terms and conditions, if any, that the Company deems appropriate.
The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of the DGCL and the Company's governing documents dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and it does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed provisions of those sections of the DGCL referenced above and the Company's governing documents.
Additionally, the Company has an insurance policy covering its officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
2
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

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) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
3
(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 the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8 and 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 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.
