Item 6    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
          -----------------------------------------

          In accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of
          Delaware, the Company has included a provision in its Certificate to
          limit the personal liability of its directors for violations of their
          fiduciary duties. The provision eliminates such directors' personal
          liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages,
          except:

          (1) for any breach of the directors' duty of loyalty to the
              Company or its stockholders;

          (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
              intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

          (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or
              redemptions; or

          (4) for any transaction from which any director derived an improper
              personal benefit.

          This provision protects the Company's directors against personal
          liability for monetary damages arising from breaches of their duty of
          care. Directors remain liable for breaches of their duty of loyalty to
          the Company and its stockholders and for the specific matters set
          forth above, as well as for violations of the federal securities laws.
          The provision has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies
          such as injunction or recision. Additionally, these provisions do not
          protect a director from activities undertaken in any capacity other
          than that of director.

          Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, inter alia,
          authorizes a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party
          or is threatened to be made a party to any suit or proceeding (other
          than an action by or in the right of the corporation) because such
          person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
          corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
          director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or other
          enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments,
          fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
          by him in connection with such 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. Similar indemnity is
          authorized for such persons against expenses (including attorneys'
          fees) actually and reasonably incurred in defense or settlement of any
          pending, completed or threatened action or suit by or in the right of
          a corporation, if such person 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 provided further that (unless a court of
          competent jurisdiction otherwise provides) such person shall not have
          been adjudged liable to the corporation. Any such indemnification may
          be made only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination
          by the shareholders or disinterested directors that indemnification is
          proper because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of
          conduct.

          Section 145 further authorizes a corporation 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 or 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 otherwise
          have the power to indemnify him.

Item 9    UNDERTAKINGS
          ------------

   (a)    Rule 415 Undertakings
          ---------------------

          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 of 1933;

              (ii)  to reflect in the prospectus any fact 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;

              (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 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)   Filings Incorporating Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Reference
          --------------------------------------------------------------------

          The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
          determining 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 that is incorporated by
          reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
          registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and
          the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
          initial bona fide offering thereof.

    (h)   Request for Acceleration of Effective Date or Filing Registration
          Statement on Form S-8
          -----------------------------------------------------------------

          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 discussed in Item 6, 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 such 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 such act and will be
          governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 6    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
          -----------------------------------------

          In accordance with the General Corporation Law of the State of
          Delaware, the Company has included a provision in its Certificate to
          limit the personal liability of its directors for violations of their
          fiduciary duties. The provision eliminates such directors' personal
          liability to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages,
          except:

          (1) for any breach of the directors' duty of loyalty to the
              Company or its stockholders;

          (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
              intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

          (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or
              redemptions; or

          (4) for any transaction from which any director derived an improper
              personal benefit.

          This provision protects the Company's directors against personal
          liability for monetary damages arising from breaches of their duty of
          care. Directors remain liable for breaches of their duty of loyalty to
          the Company and its stockholders and for the specific matters set
          forth above, as well as for violations of the federal securities laws.
          The provision has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies
          such as injunction or recision. Additionally, these provisions do not
          protect a director from activities undertaken in any capacity other
          than that of director.

          Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, inter alia,
          authorizes a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party
          or is threatened to be made a party to any suit or proceeding (other
          than an action by or in the right of the corporation) because such
          person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the
          corporation or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
          director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or other
          enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments,
          fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
          by him in connection with such 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. Similar indemnity is
          authorized for such persons against expenses (including attorneys'
          fees) actually and reasonably incurred in defense or settlement of any
          pending, completed or threatened action or suit by or in the right of
          a corporation, if such person 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 provided further that (unless a court of
          competent jurisdiction otherwise provides) such person shall not have
          been adjudged liable to the corporation. Any such indemnification may
          be made only as authorized in each specific case upon a determination
          by the shareholders or disinterested directors that indemnification is
          proper because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard of
          conduct.

          Section 145 further authorizes a corporation 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 or 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 otherwise
          have the power to indemnify him.

Item 9    UNDERTAKINGS
          ------------

   (a)    Rule 415 Undertakings
          ---------------------

          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 of 1933;

              (ii)  to reflect in the prospectus any fact 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;

              (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 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)   Filings Incorporating Subsequent Exchange Act Documents by Reference
          --------------------------------------------------------------------

          The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
          determining 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 that is incorporated by
          reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new
          registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and
          the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
          initial bona fide offering thereof.

                                      5
(h)   Request for Acceleration of Effective Date or Filing Registration
          Statement on Form S-8
          -----------------------------------------------------------------

          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 discussed in Item 6, 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 such 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 such act and will be
          governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
