Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the &#8220;DGCL&#8221;) provides
that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened
to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that
such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may
include expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
corporation&#8217;s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was illegal. A
Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be
made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in
the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person was a
director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including
attorneys&#8217; fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
with the defense or settlement of such action or suit provided such person acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the corporation&#8217;s best interests except that no indemnification is permitted
without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to
the corporation. </font></div>

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 Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.</font></div><br>

Item
6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The
Registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL") provides
that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened
to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that
such person was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or
is or was serving at the request of such person as an officer, director,
employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may
include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
corporation's best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was illegal. A
Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be
made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in
the right of the corporation by reason of the fact that such person was a
director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection
with the defense or settlement of such action or suit provided such person acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the corporation's best interests except that no indemnification is permitted
without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to
the corporation.
II-2
Where an
officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of
any action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the
expenses which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.
The Registrant's certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide for the
indemnification of directors and officers of the Registrant to the fullest
extent permitted by the DGCL.
Section
102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of
incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable
to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability (i) for any transaction
from which the director derives an improper personal benefit, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) for improper payment of dividends or redemptions of
shares, or (iv) for any breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the company or
its stockholders. The Registrant's certificate of incorporation includes such a
provision.  Reasonable expenses incurred by any officer or director in
defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final
disposition shall be paid by the Registrant upon delivery to the Registrant of
an undertaking, by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all
amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or
officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant.
The
indemnification discussed in this Item 6 is not exclusive of any other rights
the party seeking indemnification may possess.  The Company carries
officer and director liability insurance with respect to certain matters,
including matters arising under the Securities Act.

      Stockholders.
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.
(ii)
To
      reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective
      date of this 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 this 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 (i) and (ii) above 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 Exchange Act that are incorporated
by reference in the Registration Statement.
(2)
That, for
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 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 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
Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant
to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
II-4
plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange 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)           Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 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 Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
