      directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation
      Law. By virtue of these provisions, under current Delaware law a director of

      his
      or her fiduciary duty except for liability for (a) a breach of his or her duty

      (c) dividends or stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under
      Delaware law and (d) any transaction from which he or she receives an improper
      personal benefit. In addition, the Certificate provides that if Delaware law
      is
      amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability
      of a
      director, then the liability of the directors shall be eliminated or limited
      to
      the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as amended. These provisions
      pertain only to breaches of duty by directors as directors and not in any other
      corporate capacity, such as officers, and limit liability only for breaches
      of
      fiduciary duties under Delaware corporate law and not for violations of other
      laws such as the federal securities laws.</font></div>

Indemnification
      of Directors and Officers.
The
      Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") contains provisions
      eliminating the personal liability of the directors to the Company and its
      stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duties as
      directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation
      Law. By virtue of these provisions, under current Delaware law a director of
      the
      Company will not be personally liable for monetary damages for a breach of
      his
      or her fiduciary duty except for liability for (a) a breach of his or her duty
      of loyalty to the Company or to its stockholders, (b) acts or omissions not
      in
      good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
      law,
      (c) dividends or stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under
      Delaware law and (d) any transaction from which he or she receives an improper
      personal benefit. In addition, the Certificate provides that if Delaware law
      is
      amended to authorize the further elimination or limitation of the liability
      of a
      director, then the liability of the directors shall be eliminated or limited
      to
      the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as amended. These provisions
      pertain only to breaches of duty by directors as directors and not in any other
      corporate capacity, such as officers, and limit liability only for breaches
      of
      fiduciary duties under Delaware corporate law and not for violations of other
      laws such as the federal securities laws.
II-1
The
      Certificate also requires the Company to indemnify its directors, officers,
      employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
      Corporation Law against certain expenses and costs, judgments, settlements
      and
      fines incurred in the defense of any claim, including any claim brought by
      or in
      the right of the Company, to which they were made parties by reason of being
      or
      having been directors, officers, employees and agents.
Under
      Article V of the Company's bylaws, the Company is required to defend and
      indemnify each person who is involved in any threatened or actual claim, action
      or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director,
      officer or employee of the Company or serving in a similar position with respect
      to another entity at the request of the Company to the fullest extent permitted
      by the Delaware General Corporation Law. The rights conferred by Article V
      of
      the Company's bylaws are contractual rights and include the right to be paid
      expenses incurred in defending the action, suit or proceeding in advance of
      its
      final disposition.
The
      Company has insurance policies in effect covering all of the Company's directors
      and officers in certain instances where by law they may not be indemnified
      by
      the Company.

            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 of
      1933;
(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% change in the maximum aggregate offering
      price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
      registration statement;
II-2
(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 by the registrant pursuant to Section
      13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
      by reference in this registration statement.
(2)
That,
      for
      the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
      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 of 1933, 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.
(c)
Insofar
      as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933
      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 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 proceedings) 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 of 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.
