Description of Securities. - ----------------------------------- Not applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. - ------------------------------------------------ Not applicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. - --------------------------------------------------- Section 67 of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law grants PTC the power to indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent to whatever extent permitted by PTC's Articles of Organization, By-Laws or a vote adopted by the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote thereon, unless the proposed indemnitee has been adjudicated in any proceeding not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his 2 action was in the best interests of PTC or, to the extent that the matter for which indemnification is sought relates to service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan. Such indemnification may include payment by PTC of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated to be not entitled to indemnification under the statute. Article 6B of PTC's Articles of Organization provides that PTC shall, to the fullest extent legally permissible, indemnify each person at any time elected or appointed a director or officer of PTC, or who serves at PTC's request as a director or officer of another organization or in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan against any and all costs and expenses (including but not limited to court costs and legal fees) reasonably incurred by, and any and all liabilities imposed upon, him in connection with, or arising out of, or resulting from, any claim made, or any action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative) threatened or brought, against him or in which he may be involved as a party or otherwise by reason of his having so served or by reason of any action taken or omitted or alleged to have been taken or omitted by him in such capacity unless in any proceeding such person shall have been finally adjudicated with respect to the matter or matters as to which indemnification is sought not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of PTC or, to the extent that such matter or matters relate to service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan. Such indemnification shall include payment by PTC of expenses incurred in defending any such action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person indemnified to repay such payment if he shall be adjudicated to be not entitled to indemnification under Article VI, which undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of such person to make repayment. The right of indemnification under Article 6B does not extend to amounts incurred or paid in connection with any matter which shall be disposed of through a compromise payment or other settlement prior to final adjudication, whether by or pursuant to a consent decree or otherwise, unless such compromise or other settlement is approved by PTC, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, or by a court of competent jurisdiction. Article VI sets forth certain circumstances under which the payment of indemnification is conclusively deemed approved by PTC. Article VI also contains certain procedural and other provisions which provide additional protection for persons seeking indemnification. The indemnification provided for in Article VI is a contract right inuring to the benefit of the directors, officers and others entitled to indemnification. In addition, the indemnification is expressly in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights to which such director, officer or other person may be entitled and inures to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives of such a person. Section 13(b)(1 1/2) of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law provides that a corporation may, in its Articles of Organization, eliminate the directors' personal liability to the corporation and its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty, except in circumstances involving (i) a breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) unauthorized distributions and loans to insiders, and (iv) transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. PTC's Articles of Organization include a provision providing that no director shall be personally liable to PTC or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent that such exculpation is not permitted under the provisions of the Massachusetts Business Corporation Law summarized above. No amendment or repeal of that provision of the Articles of Organization shall apply or have any effect on the liability of any director for or with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to the amendment or repeal. 3 PTC maintains an insurance policy on behalf of the directors and officers of PTC and its subsidiaries covering certain liabilities which may arise as a result of the actions of said directors and officers. The provisions described above may be sufficiently broad to indemnify directors and officers and control persons of PTC against liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling PTC pursuant to the foregoing provisions, PTC has been informed 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. Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed. - -------------------------------------------- Not applicable. Item 8. Exhibits. - ------------------ See Exhibit Index immediately following signature pages. 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 end 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 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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, 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 of 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each 4 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 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 any employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities 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 provisions referred to in Item 6 hereof, 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. 5 SIGNATURES ---------- Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act, 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 Waltham, Massachusetts, on the 5th day of January, 1999.
