Registrant&#x2019;s bylaws incorporate Section 145 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, which provides that it will indemnify each
director and officer against all claims and expenses resulting from
the fact that such person was a director, officer, agent or
employee of the registrant. A claimant is eligible for
indemnification if the claimant (i) acted in good faith and in a
manner that, in the claimant&#x2019;s reasonable belief, was in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant; or (ii) in the
case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
the claimant&#x2019;s conduct was unlawful. This determination will
be made by the Registrant&#x2019;s disinterested directors, its
stockholders or independent counsel in accordance with Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law.</font></div>

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 Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</font></div>

Indemnification
of Directors and Officers
Section
145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and
agents against expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably
incurred, provided they act in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful,
although in the case of proceedings brought by or on behalf of the
corporation, such indemnification is limited to expenses and is not
permitted if the individual is adjudged liable to the corporation
(unless the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such
proceeding was brought
determines
otherwise in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law).
Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to limit or eliminate its directors' liability to
the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for
breaches of fiduciary duties, other than for (i) breaches of the
duty of loyalty; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or that
involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law; (iii)
unlawful payments of dividends, stock purchases or redemptions; or
(iv) transactions from which a director derives an improper
personal benefit. The Registrant's second amended and
restated certificate of incorporation contains such a
provision.
The
Registrant's bylaws incorporate Section 145 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law, which provides that it will indemnify each
director and officer against all claims and expenses resulting from
the fact that such person was a director, officer, agent or
employee of the registrant. A claimant is eligible for
indemnification if the claimant (i) acted in good faith and in a
manner that, in the claimant's reasonable belief, was in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant; or (ii) in the
case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
the claimant's conduct was unlawful. This determination will
be made by the Registrant's disinterested directors, its
stockholders or independent counsel in accordance with Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Section
145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law 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 against any liability asserted against and incurred by
such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such
person's status as such. The Registrant has obtained
liability insurance covering its directors and officers for claims
asserted against them or incurred by them in such
capacity.
Additionally, as
permitted by Delaware law, the Registrant entered into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors that require
the Registrant to indemnify such persons, to the fullest extent
authorized or permitted under law.

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 thereof) 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 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 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 this Registration Statement or any material
change to such information in this 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 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 into
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.
4.
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 that is incorporated by reference
into 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.
5.
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 Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
