---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(1)  Pursuant to Rule 457(h), estimated solely for the purpose of computing
     the registration fee, based upon the average of the high and low sales
     prices of the Registrant's Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market
     on October 23, 2002.

(2)  This Registration Statement registers additional securities that may
     be issued under the Modine Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan").
     The Plan represents the combination of the Modine Contributory Employee
     Stock Ownership and Investment Plans for Salaried, Non-Union Hourly and
     Union Hourly Employees.  Effective as of December 31, 2001, the Modine
     Manufacturing Company Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for
     Hourly Rate Non-Union Employees (the "Hourly Non-Union Plan") and the
     Modine Manufacturing Company Contributory Employee Stock Ownership
     Plan for Hourly Rate Union  Employees (the "Hourly Union Plan") were
     merged into the Modine Manufacturing Company Contributory Salaried
     Employee Stock Ownership and Investment Plan (the "Salaried Plan"),
     with the Salaried Plan being the surviving and continuing plan, and
     with such surviving plan amended and restated so as to be qualified
     as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan and renamed the Modine Employee
     Stock Ownership Plan, the Plan to which this Registration Statement
     relates.  The Registrant's prior registration statements on Form S-8
     (the "Prior S-8s") registered the following numbers of shares of the
     Registrant's Common Stock for issuance pursuant to these plans:

     -    Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          May 21, 1999 for the Hourly Non-Union Plan (Registration No.
          333-78989) - 100,000 shares;

     -    Registration Statements on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          May 21, 1999 and October 20, 2000 for the Hourly Union Plan
          (Registration Nos. 333-78991 and 333-48296) - 150,000 shares
          and 50,000 shares, respectively; and

     -    Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          October 20, 2000 for the Salaried Plan (Registration No.
          333-48294) - 800,000 shares.

     As of the date hereof, a total of 296,432 shares of Common Stock
     registered under the Prior S-8s (48,760 for the Hourly Non-Union
     Plan; 66,427 for the Hourly Union Plan; and 181,245 for the Salaried
     Plan) (the "Remaining Shares") have not been issued and are,
     therefore, carried forward and considered registered under this
     Registration Statement. The pro rata filing fee paid with respect
     to the Remaining Shares was $2,157.03 ($449.02 under the Hourly
     Non-Union Plan, $487.87 under the Hourly Union Plan, and $1,220.14

<PAGE>


     under the Salaried Plan).  Because the Remaining Shares are carried
     forward to this Registration Statement, no filing fee is paid
     hereunder with respect to such shares.  The Prior S-8s are being
     amended for the purpose of describing the carry forward of the
     Remaining Shares to this Registration Statement.

                             PART I

      INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

     Information specified in Part I of Form S-8 (Parts 1 and 2) will
be sent or given to employees eligible to participate in the Plan as
specified by Rule 428(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933.


                             PART II

       INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
------    ---------------------------------------

     This Registration Statement registers additional securities
of the same class as other securities for which registration
statements filed on Form S-8 relating to the same employee benefit
plan and its predecessors are effective.  The contents of the
following documents filed by Modine Manufacturing Company (the
"Registrant" or "Modine") with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(File No. 1-1373) are incorporated herein by reference:

     (a)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-8
          filed on May 21, 1999 (Registration No. 333-78989), as
          amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing Company
          Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Hourly
          Rate Non-Union Employees.

     (b)  The Registrant's Registration Statements on Form S-8
          filed on May 21, 1999 and October 20, 2000
          (Registration Nos. 333-78991 and 333-48296), as
          amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing Company
          Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Hourly
          Rate Union Employees

     (c)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-8
          filed on October 20, 2000 (Registration No. 333-48294),
          as amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing
          Company Contributory Salaried Employee Stock Ownership
          and Investment Plan.

However, as indicated in Note 2 to the fee table, the Remaining Shares
available under such earlier registration statements are being carried
forward to this Registration Statement.  Also, the Registrant has
elected not to rely upon General Instruction E to Form S-8, which
permits the filing of an abbreviated registration statement for the
registration of additional securities for an employee benefit plan
for which an earlier S-8 registration is effective. Instead, this
Registration Statement responds to all applicable items of Form S-8.

     The following documents filed by the Registrant with the
Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are incorporated herein by reference:

     (i)  Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
          year ended March 31, 2002.
<PAGE>
     (ii) Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
          quarter ended June 26, 2002.

     (iii)Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on
          April 1, 2002, April 2, 2002, July 19, 2002, July 22,
          2002 and October 17, 2002 (two reports).

     (iv) The description of the Registrant's Common Stock
          contained in its Form 10, filed with the Securities and
          Exchange Commission on May 1, 1935, as amended and
          supplemented by the description contained under the
          caption "Description of Modine Common Stock" in the
          proxy statement/prospectus which forms a part of the
          Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No.
          333-56648) filed with the Securities and Exchange
          Commission on March 7, 2001, as amended by Amendment
          No. 1 thereto on Form S-4/A filed with the Securities
          and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2001, and any
          future amendment or report filed for the purpose of
          updating such description.

     (v)  Registrant's Form 15-12G with respect to termination of
          registration of preferred share purchase rights filed
          September 9, 2002.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant
to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior
to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that
all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters
all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the
date of the filing of such documents.

     Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be
modified or superseded for purposes hereof to the extent that a
statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed
document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any
statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except
as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part hereof.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.

     Not applicable.  See point (iv) in Item 3 above.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
------   --------------------------------------

     Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
------   -----------------------------------------

     Modine is incorporated under the Wisconsin Business
Corporation Law (the "WBCL").


<PAGE>
     Under Section 180.0851(1) of the WBCL, Modine is required to
indemnify a director or officer, to the extent such person is
successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of a
proceeding, for all reasonable expenses incurred in the
proceeding if such person was a party because he or she was a
director or officer of Modine.  In all other cases, Modine is
required by Section 180.0851(2) to indemnify a director or
officer against liability incurred in a proceeding to which such
person was a party because he or she was a director or officer of
Modine, unless it is determined that he or she breached or failed
to perform a duty owed to Modine and the breach or failure to
perform constitutes:  (i) a willful failure to deal fairly with
Modine or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which
the director or officer has a material conflict of interest; (ii)
a violation of criminal law, unless the director or officer had
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful;
(iii) a transaction from which the director or officer derived an
improper personal profit; or (iv) willful misconduct.  Section
180.0858(1) provides that, subject to certain limitations, the
mandatory indemnification provisions do not preclude any
additional right to indemnification or allowance of expenses that
a director or officer may have under Modine's articles of
incorporation, bylaws, a written agreement or a resolution of the
board of directors or shareholders.

     Section 180.0859 of the WBCL provides that it is the public
policy of the State of Wisconsin to require or permit indemnification,
allowance of expenses and insurance to the extent required or permitted
under Sections 180.0850 to 180.0858 of the WBCL, for any liability
incurred in connection with a proceeding involving a federal or state
statute, rule or regulation regulating the offer, sale or purchase of
securities.

     Section 180.0828 of the WBCL provides that, with certain
exceptions, a director is not liable to a corporation, its shareholders,
or any person asserting rights on behalf of the corporation or its
shareholders, for damages, settlements, fees, fines, penalties or other
monetary liabilities arising from a breach of, or failure to perform,
any duty resulting solely from his or her status as a director, unless
the person asserting liability proves that the breach or failure to
perform constitutes any of the four exceptions to mandatory
indemnification under Section 180.0851(2) referred to above.

     Under Section 180.0833 of the WBCL, directors of Modine against
whom claims are asserted with respect to the declaration of improper
dividends or distributions to shareholders or certain other improper
acts which they approved are entitled to contribution from other
directors who approved such actions and from shareholders who
knowingly accepted an improper dividend or distribution, as provided
therein.

     Article IV of Modine's Bylaws provides for the indemnification
of directors and officers.  Directors and officers of Modine are
also covered by directors' and officers' liability insurance under
which they are insured (subject to certain exceptions and
limitations specified in the policy) against expenses and
liabilities arising out of proceedings to which they are parties
by reason of being or having been directors or officers.

     Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.
------   --------

     See Exhibit Index following the Signatures page(s) in this
Registration Statement, which Exhibit Index is incorporated
herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
------   ------------

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes (in accordance
with the corresponding lettered undertakings in Item 512 of
Regulation S-K):

     (a)     (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;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and 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 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
<PAGE>
                     registered which remain unsold at the termination
                     of the offering.

     (b)     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.

     . . .

     (h)     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 provisions
referred to in Item 6 of this registration statement, 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.

(1)  Pursuant to Rule 457(h), estimated solely for the purpose of computing
     the registration fee, based upon the average of the high and low sales
     prices of the Registrant's Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market
     on October 23, 2002.

(2)  This Registration Statement registers additional securities that may
     be issued under the Modine Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan").
     The Plan represents the combination of the Modine Contributory Employee
     Stock Ownership and Investment Plans for Salaried, Non-Union Hourly and
     Union Hourly Employees.  Effective as of December 31, 2001, the Modine
     Manufacturing Company Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for
     Hourly Rate Non-Union Employees (the "Hourly Non-Union Plan") and the
     Modine Manufacturing Company Contributory Employee Stock Ownership
     Plan for Hourly Rate Union  Employees (the "Hourly Union Plan") were
     merged into the Modine Manufacturing Company Contributory Salaried
     Employee Stock Ownership and Investment Plan (the "Salaried Plan"),
     with the Salaried Plan being the surviving and continuing plan, and
     with such surviving plan amended and restated so as to be qualified
     as an Employee Stock Ownership Plan and renamed the Modine Employee
     Stock Ownership Plan, the Plan to which this Registration Statement
     relates.  The Registrant's prior registration statements on Form S-8
     (the "Prior S-8s") registered the following numbers of shares of the
     Registrant's Common Stock for issuance pursuant to these plans:

     -    Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          May 21, 1999 for the Hourly Non-Union Plan (Registration No.
          333-78989) - 100,000 shares;

     -    Registration Statements on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          May 21, 1999 and October 20, 2000 for the Hourly Union Plan
          (Registration Nos. 333-78991 and 333-48296) - 150,000 shares
          and 50,000 shares, respectively; and

     -    Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed and effective on
          October 20, 2000 for the Salaried Plan (Registration No.
          333-48294) - 800,000 shares.

     As of the date hereof, a total of 296,432 shares of Common Stock
     registered under the Prior S-8s (48,760 for the Hourly Non-Union
     Plan; 66,427 for the Hourly Union Plan; and 181,245 for the Salaried
     Plan) (the "Remaining Shares") have not been issued and are,
     therefore, carried forward and considered registered under this
     Registration Statement. The pro rata filing fee paid with respect
     to the Remaining Shares was $2,157.03 ($449.02 under the Hourly
     Non-Union Plan, $487.87 under the Hourly Union Plan, and $1,220.14
under the Salaried Plan).  Because the Remaining Shares are carried
     forward to this Registration Statement, no filing fee is paid
     hereunder with respect to such shares.  The Prior S-8s are being
     amended for the purpose of describing the carry forward of the
     Remaining Shares to this Registration Statement.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART I

      INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

     Information specified in Part I of Form S-8 (Parts 1 and 2) will
be sent or given to employees eligible to participate in the Plan as
specified by Rule 428(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933.

                             PART II

       INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference.
------    ---------------------------------------

     This Registration Statement registers additional securities
of the same class as other securities for which registration
statements filed on Form S-8 relating to the same employee benefit
plan and its predecessors are effective.  The contents of the
following documents filed by Modine Manufacturing Company (the
"Registrant" or "Modine") with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(File No. 1-1373) are incorporated herein by reference:

     (a)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-8
          filed on May 21, 1999 (Registration No. 333-78989), as
          amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing Company
          Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Hourly
          Rate Non-Union Employees.

     (b)  The Registrant's Registration Statements on Form S-8
          filed on May 21, 1999 and October 20, 2000
          (Registration Nos. 333-78991 and 333-48296), as
          amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing Company
          Contributory Employee Stock Ownership Plan for Hourly
          Rate Union Employees

     (c)  The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-8
          filed on October 20, 2000 (Registration No. 333-48294),
          as amended, relating to the Modine Manufacturing
          Company Contributory Salaried Employee Stock Ownership
          and Investment Plan.

However, as indicated in Note 2 to the fee table, the Remaining Shares
available under such earlier registration statements are being carried
forward to this Registration Statement.  Also, the Registrant has
elected not to rely upon General Instruction E to Form S-8, which
permits the filing of an abbreviated registration statement for the
registration of additional securities for an employee benefit plan
for which an earlier S-8 registration is effective. Instead, this
Registration Statement responds to all applicable items of Form S-8.

     The following documents filed by the Registrant with the
Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are incorporated herein by reference:

     (i)  Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
          year ended March 31, 2002.
(ii) Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
          quarter ended June 26, 2002.

     (iii)Registrant's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed on
          April 1, 2002, April 2, 2002, July 19, 2002, July 22,
          2002 and October 17, 2002 (two reports).

     (iv) The description of the Registrant's Common Stock
          contained in its Form 10, filed with the Securities and
          Exchange Commission on May 1, 1935, as amended and
          supplemented by the description contained under the
          caption "Description of Modine Common Stock" in the
          proxy statement/prospectus which forms a part of the
          Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No.
          333-56648) filed with the Securities and Exchange
          Commission on March 7, 2001, as amended by Amendment
          No. 1 thereto on Form S-4/A filed with the Securities
          and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2001, and any
          future amendment or report filed for the purpose of
          updating such description.

     (v)  Registrant's Form 15-12G with respect to termination of
          registration of preferred share purchase rights filed
          September 9, 2002.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant
to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior
to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that
all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters
all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein and to be a part hereof from the
date of the filing of such documents.

     Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed
to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be
modified or superseded for purposes hereof to the extent that a
statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed
document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by
reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any
statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except
as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part hereof.

Item 4.  Description of Securities.
------   -------------------------

     Not applicable.  See point (iv) in Item 3 above.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
------   --------------------------------------

     Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
------   -----------------------------------------

     Modine is incorporated under the Wisconsin Business
Corporation Law (the "WBCL").
Under Section 180.0851(1) of the WBCL, Modine is required to
indemnify a director or officer, to the extent such person is
successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of a
proceeding, for all reasonable expenses incurred in the
proceeding if such person was a party because he or she was a
director or officer of Modine.  In all other cases, Modine is
required by Section 180.0851(2) to indemnify a director or
officer against liability incurred in a proceeding to which such
person was a party because he or she was a director or officer of
Modine, unless it is determined that he or she breached or failed
to perform a duty owed to Modine and the breach or failure to
perform constitutes:  (i) a willful failure to deal fairly with
Modine or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which
the director or officer has a material conflict of interest; (ii)
a violation of criminal law, unless the director or officer had
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful;
(iii) a transaction from which the director or officer derived an
improper personal profit; or (iv) willful misconduct.  Section
180.0858(1) provides that, subject to certain limitations, the
mandatory indemnification provisions do not preclude any
additional right to indemnification or allowance of expenses that
a director or officer may have under Modine's articles of
incorporation, bylaws, a written agreement or a resolution of the
board of directors or shareholders.

     Section 180.0859 of the WBCL provides that it is the public
policy of the State of Wisconsin to require or permit indemnification,
allowance of expenses and insurance to the extent required or permitted
under Sections 180.0850 to 180.0858 of the WBCL, for any liability
incurred in connection with a proceeding involving a federal or state
statute, rule or regulation regulating the offer, sale or purchase of
securities.

     Section 180.0828 of the WBCL provides that, with certain
exceptions, a director is not liable to a corporation, its shareholders,
or any person asserting rights on behalf of the corporation or its
shareholders, for damages, settlements, fees, fines, penalties or other
monetary liabilities arising from a breach of, or failure to perform,
any duty resulting solely from his or her status as a director, unless
the person asserting liability proves that the breach or failure to
perform constitutes any of the four exceptions to mandatory
indemnification under Section 180.0851(2) referred to above.

     Under Section 180.0833 of the WBCL, directors of Modine against
whom claims are asserted with respect to the declaration of improper
dividends or distributions to shareholders or certain other improper
acts which they approved are entitled to contribution from other
directors who approved such actions and from shareholders who
knowingly accepted an improper dividend or distribution, as provided
therein.

     Article IV of Modine's Bylaws provides for the indemnification
of directors and officers.  Directors and officers of Modine are
also covered by directors' and officers' liability insurance under
which they are insured (subject to certain exceptions and
limitations specified in the policy) against expenses and
liabilities arising out of proceedings to which they are parties
by reason of being or having been directors or officers.
Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Item 8.  Exhibits.
------   --------

     See Exhibit Index following the Signatures page(s) in this
Registration Statement, which Exhibit Index is incorporated
herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
------   ------------

     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes (in accordance
with the corresponding lettered undertakings in Item 512 of
Regulation S-K):

     (a)     (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;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and 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 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)     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.

     . . .

     (h)     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 provisions
referred to in Item 6 of this registration statement, 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.
