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.</FONT></P>

6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145
and Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware Law") authorizes a court to award, or a corporation's
Board of Directors to grant, indemnity to directors, officers and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification
under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Article VII
of the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Article VI of the Registrant's Bylaws provide for indemnification
of the Registrant's directors and officers and authorize indemnification of employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted
by Delaware Law. In addition, the Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with its officers and directors. The Registrant
also maintains directors and officers insurance to insure such persons against certain liabilities.
See
also the undertakings set out in response to Item 9 herein.

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 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation
of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(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) do not apply if 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 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 an initial bona fide offering thereof.
3
(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.
