laws of the State of Delaware. Section&nbsp;145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the &#147;DGCL&#148;) 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&#146; fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of 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&#146;s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was illegal, except that no indemnification is permitted
in any case without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. 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&#146;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. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;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)&nbsp;for any transaction from which
the director derives an improper personal benefit, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;for improper payment of dividends or redemptions of shares, or
(iv)&nbsp;for any breach of a director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the company or its stockholders. The Registrant&#146;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. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Registrant carries
officer and director liability insurance with respect to certain matters, including matters arising under the Securities Act. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The
Registrant has also entered into written indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors (the &#147;Board&#148;). These indemnification agreements require the Registrant to indemnify the directors to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law against liability that may arise by reason of their service to the Registrant, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. </P>

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 the defense or settlement of 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, except that no indemnification is permitted
in any case without judicial approval if the officer or director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. 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 Registrant carries
officer and director liability insurance with respect to certain matters, including matters arising under the Securities Act.
The
Registrant has also entered into written indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors (the "Board"). These indemnification agreements require the Registrant to indemnify the directors to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law against liability that may arise by reason of their service to the Registrant, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.
The Registrant's 2016 Plan provides that members of the Board, members of a committee
appointed by the Board, or an officer of the Registrant or its subsidiaries acting at the direction or on behalf of the Board or members of such committee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted by
law for any action or determination taken or made in good faith with respect to the 2016 Plan.
The indemnification discussed in this
Item 6 is not exclusive of any other rights the party seeking indemnification may possess.
Item 7.
Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.
Exhibits.
The exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index
that immediately precedes such exhibits and is incorporated herein by reference.
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 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) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(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 by the Registrant 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 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
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.
(h)
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, 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 Oklahoma City, State of Oklahoma on June 28, 2016.
