         (f) The description of the Company's common stock contained in
      the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File No. 0-3681)
      filed with the Commission on December 13, 1985.

     All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date this Registration Statement is filed
with the Commission and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which
indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all
securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement and to be a part of it from the respective dates
of 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or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a
statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which
also is or is deemed to be

by a court to the directors and officers of a corporation in terms sufficiently
broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for
liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company's Bylaws
require the Company, to the broadest and maximum extent permitted by law, to
indemnify each of its directors against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements
and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any
proceeding arising by reason of the fact that any such person is or was a
director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a
director of another corporation or other enterprise. The Company maintains
directors' and officers' liability insurance for its directors and officers.

ITEM 7.   EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

ITEM 8.   EXHIBITS.

      See Exhibit Index on page 7 hereof.

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 hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
      represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
      Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
      decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
      securities

                                       3
<PAGE>
 
      offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
      from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may
      be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
      pursuant to Rule 424(b) 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;

          (iii)  To include any material information with respect to
      the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
      Statement or any material change to such information in this
      Registration Statement;

provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
--------  -------                                                         
and (a)(1)(ii) above 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 by the Registrant pursuant to Section
13 or 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 undersigned 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 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 this 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.

         (f) The description of the Company's common stock contained in
      the Company's Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File No. 0-3681)
      filed with the Commission on December 13, 1985.

     All documents filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date this Registration Statement is filed
with the Commission and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which
indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all
securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference
in this Registration Statement and to be a part of it from the respective dates
of 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 of this Registration Statement to the extent that a
statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which
also is or is deemed to be

                                       2

by a court to the directors and officers of a corporation in terms sufficiently
broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for
liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company's Bylaws
require the Company, to the broadest and maximum extent permitted by law, to
indemnify each of its directors against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements
and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any
proceeding arising by reason of the fact that any such person is or was a
director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a
director of another corporation or other enterprise. The Company maintains
directors' and officers' liability insurance for its directors and officers.

ITEM 8.   EXHIBITS.

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 hereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
      represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
      Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
      decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
      securities

                                       3
offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation
      from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may
      be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
      pursuant to Rule 424(b) 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;

          (iii)  To include any material information with respect to
      the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
      Statement or any material change to such information in this
      Registration Statement;

provided, however, that the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)
--------  -------                                                         
and (a)(1)(ii) above 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 by the Registrant pursuant to Section
13 or 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 undersigned 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 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 this 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.

                                       4
