All reports and other documents subsequently filed by the Company and the Plan pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a posteffective amendment to this registration statement which indicates that all of the securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all of such securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement, including financial statements, contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration statement. Item 4. Description of Securities. Inapplicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Inapplicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware authorizes the Company to indemnify its directors and officers under specified circumstances. The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company provide that the Company shall indemnify, to the extent permitted by Delaware law, its directors and officers (and may indemnify its employees and agents) against liabilities (including expenses, judgments, and settlements) incurred by them in connection with any actual or threatened action, suit, or proceeding to which they are or may become parties and which arises out of their status as directors, officers, or employees. The Company has entered into an agreement with each of its directors which requires the Company to indemnify the director to the extent permitted by Delaware law. The Companys Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws eliminate, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, liability of a director to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of such directors fiduciary duty of care except for liability where a director (a) breaches his or her duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (b) fails to act in good faith or engages in intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, (c) authorizes payment of an illegal dividend or stock repurchase, or (d) obtains an improper personal benefit. While liability for monetary damages has been eliminated, equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission remain available. In addition, a director is not relieved of his responsibilities under any other law, including the federal securities laws. The directors and officers of the Company are insured within the limits and subject to the limitations of the policies, against certain expenses in connection with the defense of actions, suits, or proceedings and certain liabilities which might be imposed as a result of such actions, suits, or proceedings, to which they are parties by reason of being or having been such directors or officers. Insofar as indemnification by the Company for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, 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. Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed. Inapplicable. Item 8. Exhibits The exhibits to this registration statement are listed in the Exhibit Index which appears elsewhere herein and is hereby incorporated by reference. Item 9. Undertakings (a) The Company 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 (the Securities Act); (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this 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 this registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this 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- 8, and the information required to be included in a post- effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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 being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Companys annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans 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. (c)-(g) Inapplicable. (h) 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 provisions described under Item 6 above 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. (i)-(j) Inapplicable.
