Description of Securities The common stock of the Company being registered pursuant to this Registration Statement is part of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. A description of such securities is contained in the Company's Form 10-SB Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 26, 1999 and any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description. Said description is incorporated herein by reference. (See "Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.") Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel No expert is named as preparing or certifying all or part of the registration statement to which this prospectus pertains, and no counsel for the Company who is named in this prospectus as having given an opinion on the validity of the securities being offered hereby, was hired on a contingent basis or has or is to receive, in connection with this offering, a substantial interest, direct or indirect, in the Company. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), may be permitted to members of the board of directors, officers, employees, or persons controlling the Company pursuant to the immediately subsequent provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. The Company's Bylaws, specifically Section 6.09 of Article 6, however, eliminate the personal liability of the officers and directors to shareholders or the corporation for money damages to the extent permitted by Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") Section 78.037. NRS Section 78.037 provides that a corporation may limit or eliminate officers' and directors' personal liability for breach of fiduciary duty so long as liability is not eliminated or limited for acts or omissions involving intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or the payment of unlawful distributions. Section 6.09 of Article 6 of the Company's Bylaws provides that the Company shall indemnify its officers and directors for any liability, including reasonable costs of defense, arising out of any act or omission of any officer or director on behalf of the Corporation to the fullest extent allowed by the laws of the State of Nevada. In actions, proceedings and suits involving an officer or director because of their being or having been an officer or director, other than actions by or in the right of the corporation, NRS Section 78.751 (the "Nevada Statute") permits a corporation to indemnify directors or officers against actual and reasonable expenses, including attorney fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement. The Nevada Statute applies to actions, proceedings or suits whether civil, criminal, administrative or arbitrative in nature. However, unless a court directs otherwise, indemnification is permissible only if the officer or director meets the applicable standard of conduct and indemnification is proper under the circumstances. In civil cases, the standard of conduct requires the officer or director to act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believes to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. In criminal cases, an officer or director meets the standard of conduct if he or she had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The board of directors acting through a quorum of disinterested directors, independent legal counsel designated by the board of directors, or the shareholders shall determine whether 3 indemnification is proper under the circumstances. Termination of proceedings by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or plea of no contest or its equivalent, does not of itself establish a presumption that the officer or director did not meet the applicable standard of conduct. In actions by or in the right of the Company, the Company may indemnify an officer or director against expenses provided he or she satisfies the applicable standard of conduct. However, the Company cannot indemnify an officer or director adjudged liable to the corporation on any claim, issue or matter unless, and to the extent, the court determines that despite the adjudication of liability, and in light of all the circumstances, the officer or director is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses. In all proceedings, whether by or in the right of the Company or otherwise, the Nevada Statute requires indemnification to the extent the officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of the proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein. A Nevada corporation may provide, either in its articles, bylaws or agreements, that the corporation shall pay the expenses on behalf of a director or officer prior to the final disposition of the action upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay those advancements if it is ultimately determined that the officer or director is not entitled to indemnification. The Nevada Statute does not exclude other indemnification rights to which a director or officer may be entitled under the articles of incorporation, the bylaws, an agreement, a vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise; provided that those rights would not indemnify an officer or director against a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the officer or director that establishes the officer's or director's acts or omissions involved intentional misconduct, fraud or known violation of the law and were material to the cause of action. The foregoing discussion of indemnification merely summarizes certain aspects of indemnification provisions and is limited by reference to NRS Section 78.751 and to Section 6.09 of Article 6 of the Company's Bylaws. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed No restricted securities are being re-offered or resold pursuant to this registration statement. Item 8. Exhibits. The exhibits attached to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index, which is found on page 8. 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 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. 4 (2) To treat, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment as 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 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. (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.
