</B><P ALIGN="JUSTIFY"></P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have authority under Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act (the "FBCA") to indemnify our directors and officers to the extent provided for in such statute. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as amended from time to time, we will indemnify any person who was or is a director or officer of the company, or serves or served in such capacity with any other enterprise at our request, against all fines, liabilities, settlements, costs and expenses asserted against or incurred by such person in his capacity or arising out of his status as such officer or director.  We may also indemnify our employees or agents if our board of directors so approves.  This indemnification includes the right to advancement of expenses when allowed pursuant to applicable law.</P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The provisions of the FBCA authorize a corporation to indemnify its officers and directors in connection with actions, suits and proceedings brought against them if the person acted in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful.  Unless pursuant to a determination by a court, the determination of whether a director, officer or employee has acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct must be made by (i) a majority vote of directors who were not parties to the proceeding or a committee consisting solely of two or more directors not parties to the proceedings, (ii) independent legal counsel selected by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to the proceeding or committee consisting solely of two or more directors not parties to the proceedings (or selected by the majority vote of the full board if a quorum or committee cannot be obtained), or (iii) the affirmative vote of the majority of the corporation's shareholders who were not parties to the proceeding.</P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The FBCA further provides that a corporation may make any other or further indemnity by bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, except with respect to certain enumerated acts or omissions of such persons.  Florida law prohibits indemnification or advancement of expenses if a judgment or other final adjudication establishes that the actions of a director, officer or employee constitute (i) a violation of criminal law, unless the person had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, (ii) a transaction from which such person derived an improper personal benefit, (iii) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in the case of a derivative action by a shareholder, or (iv) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which a director would be liable for improper distributions under Section 607.0834 of the FBCA.  The FBCA does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other law, such as federal securities laws.  </P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of the members of our board of directors and certain of our officers. Under the terms of the indemnification agreements, each director or officer is entitled to the right of indemnification if, by reason of his/her corporate status, he/she is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any threatened, pending or completed proceedings. The Company will indemnify each director against expenses, judgments, damages, liabilities, losses, penalties, excise taxes and amounts incurred or paid by him/her or on his/her behalf in connection with such proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful. The Company will indemnify each director and officer for all expenses actually and reasonably incurred if he/she is successful on the merits. The indemnification agreements also provide for advancement of reasonable expenses, subject to proper notice being submitted to the Company. We also maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance for our directors and officers.</P>

Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
We have authority under Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act (the "FBCA") to indemnify our directors and officers to the extent provided for in such statute. Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as amended from time to time, we will indemnify any person who was or is a director or officer of the company, or serves or served in such capacity with any other enterprise at our request, against all fines, liabilities, settlements, costs and expenses asserted against or incurred by such person in his capacity or arising out of his status as such officer or director.  We may also indemnify our employees or agents if our board of directors so approves.  This indemnification includes the right to advancement of expenses when allowed pursuant to applicable law.
The provisions of the FBCA authorize a corporation to indemnify its officers and directors in connection with actions, suits and proceedings brought against them if the person acted in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal actions, had no reasonable cause to believe the person's conduct was unlawful.  Unless pursuant to a determination by a court, the determination of whether a director, officer or employee has acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct must be made by (i) a majority vote of directors who were not parties to the proceeding or a committee consisting solely of two or more directors not parties to the proceedings, (ii) independent legal counsel selected by a majority vote of the directors who were not parties to the proceeding or committee consisting solely of two or more directors not parties to the proceedings (or selected by the majority vote of the full board if a quorum or committee cannot be obtained), or (iii) the affirmative vote of the majority of the corporation's shareholders who were not parties to the proceeding.
The FBCA further provides that a corporation may make any other or further indemnity by bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, except with respect to certain enumerated acts or omissions of such persons.  Florida law prohibits indemnification or advancement of expenses if a judgment or other final adjudication establishes that the actions of a director, officer or employee constitute (i) a violation of criminal law, unless the person had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, (ii) a transaction from which such person derived an improper personal benefit, (iii) willful misconduct or conscious disregard for the best interests of the corporation in the case of a derivative action by a shareholder, or (iv) in the case of a director, a circumstance under which a director would be liable for improper distributions under Section 607.0834 of the FBCA.  The FBCA does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other law, such as federal securities laws.
We have also entered into indemnification agreements with each of the members of our board of directors and certain of our officers. Under the terms of the indemnification agreements, each director or officer is entitled to the right of indemnification if, by reason of his/her corporate status, he/she is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any threatened, pending or completed proceedings. The Company will indemnify each director against expenses, judgments, damages, liabilities, losses, penalties, excise taxes and amounts incurred or paid by him/her or on his/her behalf in connection with such proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if he/she acted in good faith and in a manner he/she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his/her conduct was unlawful. The Company will indemnify each director and officer for all expenses actually and reasonably incurred if he/she is successful on the merits. The indemnification agreements also provide for advancement of reasonable expenses, subject to proper notice being submitted to the Company. We also maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance for our directors and officers.

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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the 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 the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however
, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) 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 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 herein, 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 benefits 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 Securities Act of 1933, 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 of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
