Michael I. Oberlander, Esq., 8300 Maryland Avenue, St. Louis, Missouri 63105, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of the Company, has rendered an opinion as to the legality of the Common Stock being registered hereby.  Mr. Oberlander is paid a salary and bonus by the Company, participates in certain of the Company's employee benefit plans, may participate in the Plan in the future, and, as of May 19, 2011, was the beneficial owner of 130,491 shares of Common Stock.
Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of Sections 715, 717 and 721 through 725 of the New York Business Corporation Law and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company.
New York law authorizes a corporation to indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action or proceeding, civil or criminal, other than a shareholders' derivative action, by reason of being a director or officer of the corporation or serving any other entity in any capacity (at the request of the corporation), against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, in connection therewith, if such director or officer acted in good faith, for a purpose he or she reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service to any other  entity, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, in criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  A corporation may indemnify any person made, or threatened to be made, a party to a shareholders' derivative action, in the circumstances and to the extent described in the preceding sentence, except that in such case no indemnification shall be made for a threatened action, or a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of, or any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent the court finds that such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to such indemnification.  Any person who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of a civil or criminal proceeding as described above in this paragraph, shall be entitled to indemnification under New York law.
New York law provides that its statutory provisions relating to indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other indemnification to which a director or officer may be entitled by reason of the certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or, if authorized by the certificate or bylaws, by reason of a resolution of the stockholders or the directors as of an agreement with the corporation, provided that no indemnification may be made to or on behalf of an officer or director if a final adjudication adverse to the director or officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action adjudicated, or that such officer or director personally gained a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled.
The bylaws of the Company provide that the Company shall indemnify any director and officer, and may indemnify any employee or agent, of the Company, or of any other entity if requested by the Company to serve as such, against any claim, liability or expense incurred as a result of such service, to the maximum extent permitted by law.  To the extent that such employee or agent has been successful in the defense of a civil or criminal proceeding arising out of such service, such employee or agent shall be entitled to such indemnification.  The bylaws also provide that such indemnification is not exclusive of any other indemnification to which such director, officer, employee or agent might be entitled and authorize the Company to enter into agreements with any such director, officer, employee or agent, providing such rights of indemnification as the Board of Directors deems appropriate, provided that any such agreement shall not provide for indemnification of such a director or officer if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to such director or officer establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active or deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action adjudicated, or that he or she personally gained a financial profit or other advantage to which such director or officer was not legally entitled.  Finally, the Company may purchase and maintain insurance to indemnify any such director, officer, employee or agent, to the maximum extent allowed by law, whether or not the Company would otherwise have the power to indemnify such person.
The directors and officers of the Company are insured under a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance.

(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 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 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
(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) of this section do not apply if 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 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 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 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 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the County of St. Louis, State of Missouri, on this 26th day of May, 2011.
