     registration statement on Form S-3, as amended,  filed  with

Item 4.   Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section  145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")
makes provision for the indemnification of officers and directors
of  corporations  in terms sufficiently broad  to  indemnify  the
officers   and   directors  of  the  Corporation  under   certain
circumstances   from  liabilities  (including  reimbursement   of
expenses  incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933,  as
amended  (the  "Act").  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 duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any
breach  of  the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation  or
its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which  involve intentional misconduct or a knowing  violation  of
law,  (iii)  in respect of certain unlawful dividend payments  or
stock  redemptions  or repurchases, or (iv) for  any  transaction
from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

As  permitted  by  the  DGCL,  the Corporation's  Certificate  of
Incorporation  (the  "Charter") provides  that,  to  the  fullest
extent permitted by the DGCL or decisional law, no director shall
be  personally  liable to the Corporation or to its  stockholders
for  monetary  damages  for breach of his  fiduciary  duty  as  a
director.   The  effect of this provision in the  Charter  is  to
eliminate  the  rights  of the Corporation and  its  stockholders
(through  stockholders'  derivative  suits  on  behalf   of   the
Corporation)  to recover monetary damages against a director  for
breach  of  fiduciary  duty  as  a  director  thereof  (including
breaches  resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior)
except   in   the  situations  described  in  clauses   (i)-(iv),
inclusive, above.  These provisions will not alter the  liability
of directors under federal securities laws.

The   Corporation's  Bylaws  (the  "Bylaws")  provide  that   the
Corporation shall 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, whether  civil,  criminal,
administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that he  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 any other corporation  or
enterprise  (including  an employee benefit  plan),  against  all
expenses,   liability  and  loss  (including   attorneys'   fees,
judgments,  fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, and  amounts
paid  or to be paid in settlement, and any interest, assessments,
or  other charges imposed thereof, and any taxes imposed on  such
person  as  a  result  of such payments) reasonably  incurred  or
suffered   by  such  person  in  connection  with  investigating,
defending, being a witness in, or participating in (including  on
appeal),  or  preparing for any of the foregoing in such  action,
suit or proceeding, to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL,
provided  that  the Corporation shall indemnify  such  person  in
connection with any such action, suit or proceeding initiated  by
such  person only if authorized by the Board of Directors of  the
Corporation or brought to enforce certain indemnification rights.

The  Bylaws also provide that expenses incurred by an officer  or
director  of the Corporation (acting in his capacity as such)  in
defending  any such action, suit or proceeding shall be  paid  by
the  Corporation,  provided that if required  by  the  DGCL  such
expenses  shall be advanced only upon delivery to the Corporation
of  an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to
repay such amount if it shall

 II.3

ultimately  be  determined  that  he  is  not  entitled   to   be
indemnified  by  the  Corporation.  Expenses  incurred  by  other
agents  of  the Corporation may be advanced upon such  terms  and
conditions  as  the  Board of Directors of the Corporation  deems
appropriate.   Any  obligation to reimburse the  Corporation  for
expenses advanced under such provisions shall be unsecured and no
interest shall be charged thereon.

The  Bylaws also provide that indemnification provided for in the
Bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which
the  indemnified  party  may  be  entitled;  that  any  right  of
indemnification or protection provided under the Bylaws shall not
be  adversely  affected by any amendment, repeal, or modification
of the Bylaws; and that the Corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance to protect itself and any such person against any  such
expenses,  liability  and loss, whether or  not  the  Corporation
would  have  the  power  to indemnify such  person  against  such
expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL or the Bylaws.

In  addition  to  the  above, the Corporation  has  entered  into
indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain
of   its   officers.   The  indemnification  agreements   provide
directors  and  officers  with the same  indemnification  by  the
Corporation as described above and assure directors and  officers
that  indemnification will continue to be provided despite future
changes  in the Bylaws of the Corporation.  The Corporation  also
provides  indemnity  insurance pursuant  to  which  officers  and
directors  are indemnified or insured against liability  or  loss
under  certain  circumstances, which  may  include  liability  or
related loss under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

Item 9.   Undertakings.

(1)  The undersigned Corporation hereby undertakes:

     (a)  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
               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 a 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  the registration statement  or  any
               material  change  to  such  information   in   the
               registration statement;
               
provided,  however, that paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and  (1)(a)(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 Corporation pursuant  to  Section  13  or
Section  15(d)  of  the  Exchange Act that  are  incorporated  by
reference in this registration statement.

     (b)  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.
          
     (c)  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.
          
(2)  The  undersigned  Corporation hereby  undertakes  that,  for
     purposes  of determining any liability under the  Securities
     Act, each filing of the Corporation's annual report pursuant
     to  Section 13(a) or 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.
     
(3)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
     Securities  Act may be permitted to directors, officers  and
     controlling  persons  of  the Corporation  pursuant  to  the
     foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Corporation 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
     
 II.5
     
     (other  than  the  payment  by the Corporation  of  expenses
     incurred  or  paid  by  a director, officer  or  controlling
     person  of the Corporation 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 Corporation 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.
