                               ================

  This Registration Statement contains two parts.  The first part contains a
Reoffer Prospectus prepared in accordance with the requirements of Part I of
Form S-3 (in accordance with Section C of the General Instructions to Form S-8)
which covers reoffers and resales by "affiliates" and "associates" (as those
terms are defined in Rule 405 of the General Rules and Regulations under the
Securities Act of 1933) of the Registrant of shares of Common Stock of
Curtiss-Wright Corporation ("Corporation" or "Registrant") issued to employees
pursuant to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, 1989 and 1979
Restricted Stock Purchase Plans, 1985 Amended Stock Option Plan and Qualified
Stock Option Plan.  The Reoffer Prospectus contained herein replaces the Rule
424(b)(3) prospectus supplement used for the resale of shares acquired pursuant
to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, 1979 Restricted Stock
Purchase Plan and 1989 Restricted Stock Purchase Plan and the Rule 424(b)(3)
prospectus supplement used for the resale of Curtiss-Wright Common Stock issued
in 1974 pursuant to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan.  This
Registration Statement also deregisters 357,195 shares of common stock which
had been reserved for issuance to key employees of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries pursuant to the Corporation's 1979 Restricted Stock Purchase Plan
which expired on December 31, 1988.  The second part contains "Information
Required in the Registration Statement" pursuant to Part II of Form S-8 and
certain Items from "Information Not Required in the Prospectus" pursuant to
Part II of Form S-3.  Pursuant to the Note to Part I of Form S-8, the Plan
Information specified by Part I is not filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, but a document containing such information has been sent or given
to employees as specified by Rule 428(b)(1).  The S-3 Reoffer Prospectus may be
utilized for reofferings of the Corporation's Common Stock acquired by certain
Covered Shareholders through participation in the aforesaid Restricted Stock
and Stock Option Plans.

Prospectus

	          S-3 Reoffer Prospectus dated August 10, 1995

                           CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION

                                 90,437 Shares
                           $1 par value Common Stock

                        BY CERTAIN COVERED SHAREHOLDERS

  This Reoffer Prospectus relates to 90,437 shares (the "Shares") of Common
Stock, $1.00 par value ("Common Stock"), of Curtiss-Wright Corporation (the
"Corporation"), a Delaware corporation, which may be offered for sale from time
to time by certain stockholders listed under the heading "Covered Shareholders"
herein (the "Covered Shareholders") for their own benefit each of whom may be
defined herein as an "affiliate" under Rule 405 promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933.  Said persons acquired the Corporation's Common Stock
through participation in the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan
and/or 1979 and/or 1989 Restricted Stock Purchase Plans and/or 1985 Amended
Stock Option Plan and/or Qualified Stock Option Plan.  It is anticipated that
the Covered Shareholders will offer the Shares for sale at prevailing prices in
the New York Stock Exchange on the date of sale.  The Corporation will receive
no part of the proceeds of sales made hereunder.  All expenses of registration
incurred in connection with this offering are being borne by the Corporation,
but all selling and other expenses incurred by the Covered Shareholders will be
borne by such Covered Shareholders.

  The Covered Shareholders and any broker executing selling orders on
behalf of the Covered Shareholders may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within
the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
in which event commissions received by such broker may be deemed to be
underwriting commissions under the Securities Act.

The Common Stock of the Corporation is traded on the New York Stock Exchange. 
On August 09, 1995 the last trading date before this Reoffer Prospectus was
printed, the closing price of the Corporation's Common Stock, as reported by
the New York Stock Exchange was $45.000 (symbol: CW).

               ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS REOFFER PROSPECTUS.
                   ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A
                               CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

  Any shares of Common Stock sold pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus will be
sold by the Covered Shareholders for their own account, and they will receive
all proceeds from any such sales.  The Corporation will receive none of the
proceeds from the sale of shares which may be offered hereby but may receive
funds upon the exercise of the options pursuant to which the Covered
Shareholders will acquire the shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus, which
funds, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes.  The Covered
Shareholders have not advised the Corporation of any specific plans for the
distribution of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus,
but, if and when shares are sold, it is anticipated that the shares will be
sold from time to time primarily in transactions (which may include block
transactions) on the New York Stock Exchange at the market price then
prevailing, although sales may also be made in negotiated transactions or
otherwise.  If shares of Common Stock are sold through brokers, the Covered
Shareholders may pay customary brokerage commissions and charges.  The Covered
Shareholders may effect such transactions by selling shares to or through
broker-dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the Covered Shareholders and/or the
purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom
they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular
broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).  The Covered
Shareholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the
shares hereunder might be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of
Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, and any commissions received by
them and any profit on the resale of shares as principal might be deemed to be
underwriting discounts and commissions under such Act.  Shares of Common Stock
covered by this Reoffer Prospectus also may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933 rather than pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus.
The Covered Shareholders have been advised that they are subject to the
applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including without
limitation Rules 10b-5, 10b-6 and 10b-7 thereunder.

  There can be no assurances that the Covered Shareholders will sell any or all
of the shares of Common Stock offered hereunder.

to Exhibit 3(a) to Registrant's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended June 30, 1987) and by Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law which provides as follows:



                                     - 10 - <PAGE>
<PAGE> 11
  (a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party 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 the corporation) by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order,
settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

  (b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of 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 that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.

  (c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a
corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this
section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

  (d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director,
officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met
the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this
section.  Such determination shall be made (1) by the board of directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even
if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent
legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders.


                                     - 11 - <PAGE>
<PAGE> 12
  (e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director
in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit
or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking
by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall
ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the corporation as authorized in this section.  Such expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon
such terms and conditions, if any, as the board of directors deems appropriate.

  (f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.

  (g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under this section.

  (h) For purposes of this section, references to "the corporation" shall
include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation
(including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or
merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and
authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so
that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such
constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand
in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or
surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent
corporation if its separate existence had continued.

  (i) For purposes of this section, references to "other enterprises" shall
include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise
taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and
references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which
imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or
agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or
beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries
of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in this
section.

  (j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person.

Item 9 of Form S-8; Item 17 of Form S-3.  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 registrant statement 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.

  (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 undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the 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
Exchange Act (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 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 as to
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.

                               ================

  This Registration Statement contains two parts.  The first part contains a
Reoffer Prospectus prepared in accordance with the requirements of Part I of
Form S-3 (in accordance with Section C of the General Instructions to Form S-8)
which covers reoffers and resales by "affiliates" and "associates" (as those
terms are defined in Rule 405 of the General Rules and Regulations under the
Securities Act of 1933) of the Registrant of shares of Common Stock of
Curtiss-Wright Corporation ("Corporation" or "Registrant") issued to employees
pursuant to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, 1989 and 1979
Restricted Stock Purchase Plans, 1985 Amended Stock Option Plan and Qualified
Stock Option Plan.  The Reoffer Prospectus contained herein replaces the Rule
424(b)(3) prospectus supplement used for the resale of shares acquired pursuant
to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan, 1979 Restricted Stock
Purchase Plan and 1989 Restricted Stock Purchase Plan and the Rule 424(b)(3)
prospectus supplement used for the resale of Curtiss-Wright Common Stock issued
in 1974 pursuant to the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan.  This
Registration Statement also deregisters 357,195 shares of common stock which
had been reserved for issuance to key employees of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries pursuant to the Corporation's 1979 Restricted Stock Purchase Plan
which expired on December 31, 1988.  The second part contains "Information
Required in the Registration Statement" pursuant to Part II of Form S-8 and
certain Items from "Information Not Required in the Prospectus" pursuant to
Part II of Form S-3.  Pursuant to the Note to Part I of Form S-8, the Plan
Information specified by Part I is not filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, but a document containing such information has been sent or given
to employees as specified by Rule 428(b)(1).  The S-3 Reoffer Prospectus may be
utilized for reofferings of the Corporation's Common Stock acquired by certain
Covered Shareholders through participation in the aforesaid Restricted Stock
and Stock Option Plans.

Prospectus

	          S-3 Reoffer Prospectus dated August 10, 1995

                           CURTISS-WRIGHT CORPORATION

                                 90,437 Shares
                           $1 par value Common Stock

                        BY CERTAIN COVERED SHAREHOLDERS

  This Reoffer Prospectus relates to 90,437 shares (the "Shares") of Common
Stock, $1.00 par value ("Common Stock"), of Curtiss-Wright Corporation (the
"Corporation"), a Delaware corporation, which may be offered for sale from time
to time by certain stockholders listed under the heading "Covered Shareholders"
herein (the "Covered Shareholders") for their own benefit each of whom may be
defined herein as an "affiliate" under Rule 405 promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933.  Said persons acquired the Corporation's Common Stock
through participation in the Corporation's Restricted Stock Purchase Plan
and/or 1979 and/or 1989 Restricted Stock Purchase Plans and/or 1985 Amended
Stock Option Plan and/or Qualified Stock Option Plan.  It is anticipated that
the Covered Shareholders will offer the Shares for sale at prevailing prices in
the New York Stock Exchange on the date of sale.  The Corporation will receive
no part of the proceeds of sales made hereunder.  All expenses of registration
incurred in connection with this offering are being borne by the Corporation,
but all selling and other expenses incurred by the Covered Shareholders will be
borne by such Covered Shareholders.

  The Covered Shareholders and any broker executing selling orders on

                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

  Any shares of Common Stock sold pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus will be
sold by the Covered Shareholders for their own account, and they will receive
all proceeds from any such sales.  The Corporation will receive none of the
proceeds from the sale of shares which may be offered hereby but may receive
funds upon the exercise of the options pursuant to which the Covered
Shareholders will acquire the shares covered by this Reoffer Prospectus, which
funds, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes.  The Covered
Shareholders have not advised the Corporation of any specific plans for the
distribution of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Reoffer Prospectus,
but, if and when shares are sold, it is anticipated that the shares will be
sold from time to time primarily in transactions (which may include block
transactions) on the New York Stock Exchange at the market price then
prevailing, although sales may also be made in negotiated transactions or
otherwise.  If shares of Common Stock are sold through brokers, the Covered
Shareholders may pay customary brokerage commissions and charges.  The Covered
Shareholders may effect such transactions by selling shares to or through
broker-dealers, and such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the Covered Shareholders and/or the
purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom
they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular
broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).  The Covered
Shareholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of the
shares hereunder might be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of
Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, and any commissions received by
them and any profit on the resale of shares as principal might be deemed to be
underwriting discounts and commissions under such Act.  Shares of Common Stock
covered by this Reoffer Prospectus also may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933 rather than pursuant to this Reoffer Prospectus.
The Covered Shareholders have been advised that they are subject to the
applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including without
limitation Rules 10b-5, 10b-6 and 10b-7 thereunder.

  There can be no assurances that the Covered Shareholders will sell any or all
of the shares of Common Stock offered hereunder.

Item  6 of Form S-8;
Item 15 of Form S-3.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

  Registrant's indemnification obligations are governed by Article 8 of
Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation (incorporated by reference
to Exhibit 3(a) to Registrant's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly
period ended June 30, 1987) and by Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law which provides as follows:

                                     - 10 -
11
  (a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party 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 the corporation) by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  
The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order,
settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent,
shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

  (b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of 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 that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.

  (c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a
corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this
section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

  (d) Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director,
officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because he has met
the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this
section.  Such determination shall be made (1) by the board of directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such
action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even
if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent
legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the stockholders.

                                     - 11 -
12
  (e) Expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by an officer or director
in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit
or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking
by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall
ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by
the corporation as authorized in this section.  Such expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred by other employees and agents may be so paid upon
such terms and conditions, if any, as the board of directors deems appropriate.

  (f) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.

  (g) A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him
and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him against
such liability under this section.

  (h) For purposes of this section, references to "the corporation" shall
include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation
(including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or
merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and
authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so
that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such
constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand
in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or
surviving corporation as he would have with respect to such constituent
corporation if its separate existence had continued.

  (i) For purposes of this section, references to "other enterprises" shall
include employee benefit plans; references to "fines" shall include any excise
taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and
references to "serving at the request of the corporation" shall include any
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which
imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or
agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or
beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries
of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner "not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation" as referred to in this
section.

  (j) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted
pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person.

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 the 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
Exchange Act (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 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 as to
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.
