ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. Article Eighth of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Article X of the Companys Bylaws provide for mandatory indemnification to at least the extent specifically allowed by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the GCL). Pursuant to Section 145 of the GCL, the Company generally has the power to indemnify its current and former directors, officers, employees and agents against expenses and liabilities incurred by them in connection with any suit to which they are, or are threatened to be made, a party by reason of their serving in such positions so long as they acted in good faith and in a manner in which they reasonably believed to be, or not opposed to, the best interest of the Company, and with respect to any criminal action, they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. With respect to suits by or in the right of the Company, however, indemnification is generally limited to attorneys' fees and other expenses and is not available if such person is adjudged to be liable to the Registrant unless the court determines that indemnification is appropriate. The statute expressly provides that the power to indemnify authorized thereby is not exclusive of any rights granted under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Company also has the power to purchase and maintain insurance for such persons. The above discussion of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and Section 145 of the GCL is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by such document and statute. Directors and Officers are insured at the Company's expense, against certain liabilities which might arise out of their employment and which are not subject to indemnification under the Bylaws. Reference is made to the form of Underwriting Agreement, filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, which contains provisions for indemnification of the Company, its directors, officers and any controlling persons by the Underwriters against certain liabilities for information furnished by the Underwriters. ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. In connection with the organization of the Company, in May 1998 an aggregate of 1,000 shares of Common Stock were issued to the McNair Interests and the Minority Interests pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange 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 Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company 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 Company 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. The undersigned Company hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as a part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be a part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective. (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
