Any statement contained in an Incorporated Document shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for all purposes to the extent that a statement contained in this Registration Statement or in any other subsequently filed Incorporated Document or in any prospectus or prospectus supplement modifies or supersedes such statement. ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES. Not applicable. ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL. Not applicable. ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. The Registrant's Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of a director of the Registrant to the Registrant and its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty to the fullest extent permitted by the Colorado Business Corporation Act ("CBCA"). The CBCA permits elimination of a directors personal liability for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, except (i) for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to a corporation or its shareholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for acts specified in Section 7-108-403 of the CBCA and (iv) for transactions in which the director directly or indirectly derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant's Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the CBCA, as amended from time to time. Subject to several exceptions, the CBCA provides in part that a corporation shall have the power to indemnify any person made a party to a proceeding (as defined II-1 in the CBCA) because such person is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the corporation's request in a representative capacity for another person or entity, against liability incurred in the proceeding if the person conducted himself or herself in good faith, and such person reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in an official capacity, that his or her conduct was in the corporation's best interests and in all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests. In addition, a corporation is authorized to advance expenses to officers and directors provided the officer or director furnishes to the corporation a written affirmation of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct described above and the officer or director provides the corporation with a written undertaking to repay the advance if it is ultimately determined that he or she did not meet such standard of conduct. Any indemnification may be made only as authorized in each specific case after a determination has been made that indemnification is permissible by the board of directors, a committee of the board of directors, the shareholders or independent legal counsel as provided in the CBCA. Where an officer or director is wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding, a corporation must indemnify him or her against reasonable expenses incurred. The Registrant also maintains directors' and officers' liability coverage to insure indemnification of its directors and officers. ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED. Not applicable. ITEM 8.

(included in the opinion filed as Exhibit 5.1). 25.1 Power of Attorney (included in Part II of this Registration Statement under the caption "Signatures"). ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: a. 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. II-2 b. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each 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. d. 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 Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to 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. e. To deliver or cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or Rule 14c-3 under the Exchange Act; and, where interim financial information required to be presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X is not set forth in the prospectus, to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information. f. 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. II-3 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Boulder, State of Colorado, on July 30, 1997.
