                court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
                indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
                Act and
                will be governed by the final adjudication of such

Item
      6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Article
      XI of the registrant's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, as
      amended, limits the liability of directors of the registrant pursuant to the
      Kentucky Business Corporation Act. Under this article, directors generally
      are
      personally liable to the registrant or its shareholders for monetary damages
      only in transactions involving conflicts of interest or improper personal
      benefit for a director, intentional misconduct, known violations of law, or
      unlawful distributions.
The
      Amended and Restated Bylaws of the registrant require the registrant to
      indemnify and hold harmless each director and officer and permit the registrant
      to indemnify and hold harmless any other employee or agent of the registrant
      who
      is, was or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
      completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
      or
      investigative and whether formal or informal by reason of the fact that he
      is or
      was a director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant, or while a
      director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant, is or was serving the
      registrant or any other legal entity in any capacity (including, without
      limitation, as a director, officer, partner, manager, trustee, employee or
      agent
      of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust,
      limited liability company, employee benefit plan or other enterprise) at the
      request of the registrant, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses
      (including any obligation to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty or fine)
      incurred by such person to the fullest extent permitted by law.
The
      Amended and Restated Bylaws of the
      registrant further provide that the registrant shall pay expenses (including
      attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any proceeding
      in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that the payment of
      such
      expenses shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the person to
      repay all amounts advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that the person
      is not entitled to be indemnified.
The
      circumstances under which Kentucky law requires or permits a corporation to
      indemnify its directors, officers, employees and/or agents are set forth at
      KRS
      271B.8-500, et seq.  Generally, under KRS 271B.8-500 et seq., a
      corporation may indemnify an individual made a party to a proceeding because
      he
      is or was a director against liability incurred in the proceeding
      if:
(1)
he
                conducted himself in good faith;
                and
(2)
he
                reasonably believed
(a)
in
                the case of conduct in his official capacity with the corporation,
                that
                his conduct was in its best interests;
                and
(b)
in
                all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed to its
                best
                interests.
3
(3)
in
                the case of any criminal proceeding, he had no reasonable cause to
                believe
                his conduct was unlawful.
A
      corporation may not indemnify a director:
(1)
in
                connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation
                in
                which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation;
                or
(2)
in
                connection with any other proceeding charging improper personal benefit
                to
                him, whether or not involving action in his official capacity, in
                which he
                was adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly
                received by him.
Indemnification
      permitted in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation
      is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the
      proceeding.
In
      addition, the registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance
      covering certain liabilities which may be incurred by the directors and officers
      of the registrant in connection with the performance of their
      duties.

      7.  Exemption From Registration Claimed.

      8.  Exhibits.
The
      Exhibits listed on the Exhibit Index appearing on page 8 of this Registration
      Statement are hereby incorporated by reference.
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
                of 1933;
(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;
4
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
      Securities and Exchange 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 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 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
                Act and
                will be governed by the final adjudication of such
                issue.
