145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the
&#x201C;DGCL&#x201D;) provides, in general, that a corporation
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, as the
Company is, may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative
action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact
that such person 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
enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&#x2019; fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action,
suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
such person&#x2019;s conduct was unlawful. In the case of a
derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such
person against expenses (including attorneys&#x2019; fees) actually
and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted
in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except
that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue
or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in
which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.</font></div>

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, 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 the 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>

Item 6.
Indemnification of
Directors and Officers
.
Section
145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the
"DGCL") provides, in general, that a corporation
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, as the
Company is, may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative
action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact
that such person 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
enterprise, against 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 if such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
such person's conduct was unlawful. In the case of a
derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such
person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually
and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted
in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except
that no indemnification will be made in respect of any claim, issue
or matter as to which such person will have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any other court in
which such action was brought determines such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
As
permitted by the DGCL, the Company's certificate of
incorporation contains provisions that eliminate the personal
liability of its directors for monetary damages for any breach of
fiduciary duties as a director, except liability for the
following:
●
any breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its
stockholders;
●
acts or omissions
not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law;
●
under Section 174
of the DGCL (regarding unlawful dividends and stock purchases);
or
●
any transaction
from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
As
permitted by the DGCL, the Company's certificate of
incorporation provides that the Company is required to indemnify
each person that it has the power to indemnify to the fullest
extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL.
The
Company maintains a general liability insurance policy that covers
certain liabilities of directors and officers of the Company
arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their
capacities as directors or officers.
The
Company has entered into indemnification agreements with all its
directors and named executive officers whereby the Company has
agreed to indemnify those directors and officers to the fullest
extent permitted by law, including indemnification against expenses
and liabilities incurred in legal proceedings to which the director
or officer was, or is threatened to be made, a party by reason of
the fact that such director or officer is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the Company, provided that such
director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner that the
director or officer reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed
to, the best interests of the Company.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to the Company's directors, officers and
controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the
SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

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 of 1933;
(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% 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) of this section shall 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78m
or 78o(d)) 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) The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any 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 (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) 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 of 1933 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 Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 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.
