or superseded shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this Prospectus
except as so modified or superseded.
Item 4. Description of Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts & Counsel
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors & Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
provides in general that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person
who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any suit or
3
4
proceeding because such person is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation or was serving, at the request of the
corporation, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by
such person in connection with such 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 interest of the corporation and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. Similar indemnity, but only for
expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred, may be provided in connection with an action or suit by or in
the right of a corporation, provided that such person acted in good faith
and in a manner such person believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interest of the corporation and except that no indemnification may be made
in respect of any claim as to which such person has been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that a court shall
have determined, upon application, that, despite the adjudication of
liability and in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such
court shall deem proper.
Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law
provides generally that a corporation may include a provision in its
certificate of incorporation which eliminates or limits the personal
liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that
such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (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) under
Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) for any
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
In general, section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law authorizes a court to award or a corporation's board of directors to
grant indemnification to officers and directors in terms sufficiently
broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for
liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under
the Act.
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed
Not applicable.

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 and of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected i 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 20 percent 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)
do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3,
5
6
Form S-8, or Form F-3, and the information required to be
included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
is contained in periodic 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 that
are incorporated by reference in this registrations
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 offered
hereby 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 liability 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
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.
