Not applicable.
Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145(a) of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended ("
DGCL
") provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify
any person who was or is a party to 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 the corporation),
because he or she is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, 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 corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) of the DGCL
provides, in general, that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor because
the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action or 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 corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter
as to which he or she shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances
of the case, he or she is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating
court shall deem proper.
Section 145(g) of the DGCL
provides, in general, that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such
person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation
would have the power to indemnify the person against such liability under Section 145 of the DGCL.
As
permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's second amended and restated certificate of incorporation limits the liability of
its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL
providing that a director will not be personally liable for monetary
damages to the Registrant or its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the extent so permitted. The certificate
of incorporation also provides that each current or former director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or each such
person who is or was serving or who had agreed to serve at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent
of any other enterprise will be indemnified by the Registrant to the full extent permitted by law, as the same exists or may in
the future be amended
. The Registrant's second amended and restated bylaws provide
that it will indemnify, and provide
expense advancement
to, its directors and officers
to the fullest extent permitted by such law
, subject to certain exceptions contained in
the
Registrant's
bylaws.
The
Registrant
has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These agreements provide that the
Registrant
will indemnify, and provide expense advancement and reimbursement to, each
of its directors and such officers to the fullest extent permitted by law and its charter and its bylaws, subject to certain exceptions
contained in those agreements.
Any claims for indemnification by the Registrant's directors
and officers may reduce the Registrant's available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against it and may reduce
the amount of money available to the Registrant.
The
Registrant
also maintains
a general liability insurance policy, which will cover certain liabilities of directors and officers of the
Registrant
arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
Item 7.
Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.
Exhibits.
See attached Exhibit Index.
Item 9.
Undertakings.
(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 the 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 the registration statement; and
(iii)       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;
provided
,
however
, that paragraphs (i)
and (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 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the 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.
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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference
in the 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.
The undersigned Registrant further undertakes
that, 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 SEC 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.
