liabilities arising under the 1933 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 Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>

Item 9.          Undertakings
A.    Rule 415 Offering
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 1933 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
(1)(i) and (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 periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section
15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2)    
          That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 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 the 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.    
          Filings Incorporating Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Reference
The undersigned registrant hereby
undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing
of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
1934 Act, (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to section 15(d) of the 1934 Act) 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.    
          Filing of Registration Statement on Form S-8
Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the 1933 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 Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
