    <div style="margin-top: 4.5pt;">The Company&#8217;s Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company will indemnify each director of the Company in accordance with
      Section&#160;145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the &#8220;<u>Delaware Law</u>&#8221;), as amended from time to time.</div>
    <div style="margin-top: 4.5pt;">The Company&#8217;s Amended and Restated By-Laws provide for the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company to the full extent
      permitted by applicable law<font style="color: #000000;"> against expenses (including attorneys&#8217; fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by
        such person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding</font> by reason of the fact that such person is or was a <font style="color: #000000;">director, officer, employee,
        fiduciary or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, fiduciary, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.</font></div>
    <div style="margin-top: 9pt;">Section&#160;145 of the Delaware Law empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to
      any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, 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 or director
      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), 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 officer or director 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, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
      conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation in the performance of his duty. 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 actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.</div>
    <div style="margin-top: 9pt;">In addition, in accordance with Section&#160;102 of the Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company contains a provision to
      limit the personal liability of the directors of the Company for violations of their fiduciary duty. This provision eliminates each director&#8217;s liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages except (i)&#160;for any breach of the
      director&#8217;s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii)&#160;for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&#160;under Section&#160;174 of the Delaware Law providing for liability of
      directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemption, or (iv)&#160;for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. The effect of this provision is to eliminate the personal liability of the
      directors to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for actions involving a breach of their fiduciary duty of care, including any such actions involving gross negligence.</div>
    <div style="margin-top: 9pt;">The Registrant maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (a) to its directors and officers against loss
      rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and (b) to the Registrant with respect to payments which may be made by the Registrant to such officers and directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or
      otherwise as a matter of law.</div>

Item 4.

Item 5.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company will indemnify each director of the Company in accordance with
      Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "
Delaware Law
"), as amended from time to time.
The Company's Amended and Restated By-Laws provide for the indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company to the full extent
      permitted by applicable law
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by
        such person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding
by reason of the fact that such person is or was a
director, officer, employee,
        fiduciary or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, fiduciary, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.
Section 145 of the Delaware Law empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any persons who are, or are threatened to be made, parties to
      any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, 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 or director
      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), 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 officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
      corporation's best interests, and, for criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same
      conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation in the performance of his duty. 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 actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.
In addition, in accordance with Section 102 of the Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company contains a provision to
      limit the personal liability of the directors of the Company for violations of their fiduciary duty. This provision eliminates each director's liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages except (i) for any breach of the
      director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware Law providing for liability of
      directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemption, or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. The effect of this provision is to eliminate the personal liability of the
      directors to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for actions involving a breach of their fiduciary duty of care, including any such actions involving gross negligence.
The Registrant maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided (a) to its directors and officers against loss
      rising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, and (b) to the Registrant with respect to payments which may be made by the Registrant to such officers and directors pursuant to the above indemnification provision or
      otherwise as a matter of law.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
(a)
The 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 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) under the Securities Act 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; 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 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 pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this 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 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, 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 City of Honolulu, State of Hawaii, on November 6, 2020.
