INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Article 6A of the Registrant's Articles of Organization, as amended (the "Articles of Organization") provides for indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws. Section 67 of Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify directors, officers, employees or other agents of the corporation, and persons who serve at its request as directors, officers, employees or other agents of another organization, or who serve at its request in any capacity with respect to any employee benefit plan, against amounts paid and expenses incurred in connection with an action or proceeding to which such person is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position; provided, however, that such person acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of the corporation or, in the case of service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in the best interests of the participants or beneficiaries of such employee benefit plan. Article 6A of the Registrant's Articles of Organization provides for indemnification of directors and officers of the Registrant, and directors or employees of the Registrant now serving at the request of the Registrant as a director or officer of another organization or in any capacity with respect to an employee benefit plan of the Registrant, against all liabilities and expenses imposed upon or incurred by any such person in connection with any legal proceedings in which he may be a defendant or with which he may be threatened or involved, directly or indirectly, by reason of his position as a director or officer or as a result of his service with respect to an employee benefit plan; provided, however, that the Registrant shall provide no indemnification if the director or officer has been adjudicated not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interests of the Registrant. The Registrant shall further indemnify the officer or director for the expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement and compromise of such proceedings. However, no indemnification will be made to cover costs of settlements and compromises if the Board determines by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of disinterested directors (or, if such quorum is not obtainable, by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Registrant then in office), that such settlement or compromise is not in the best interests of the Registrant. Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws, as it may be amended from time to time, and Article 6A of the Registrant's Articles of Organization permit the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action in advance of its final disposition, subject to receipt of an undertaking by the indemnified person to repay such payment if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification under the Articles of Organization. No advance may be made if the Board of Directors determines, by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of disinterested directors (or, if such quorum is not obtainable, by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Registrant then in office), that such person did not act in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the Registrant. Article 6D of the Registrant's Articles of Organization provides that to the fullest extent permitted by Chapter 156B of the Massachusetts General Laws, as it may be amended from time to time, no director shall be liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for - 4 - 5 liability (i) for any breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for unauthorized distributions or loans under Section 61 or 62 of Chapter 156B, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant has directors and officers liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and officers. Item 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED Not applicable. Item 8.

Item 9. UNDERTAKINGS 1. The 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 in the Registration Statement; - 5 - 6 (b) 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; (c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at termination of the offering. 2. The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, 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. 3. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 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 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. - 6 - 7 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 Norwood, Commonwealth of Massachusetts, on this January 16, 2001.
