Item 4. Description of Shares.
Not applicable
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Article TENTH of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, and Article IV of the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for
the indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest
extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, as amended from time to time.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
permits a corporation, under specified circumstances, to indemnify its
directors, officers, employees or agents against expenses (including attorney's
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding brought by
third parties by reason of the fact that they were or are directors, officers,
employees or agents of the corporation, if such directors, officers, employees
or agents acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reason to believe their conduct was
unlawful. In a derivative action, i.e., one by or in the right of the
corporation, indemnification may be made only for expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by directors, officers, employees or agents in connection
with the defense or settlement of an action or suit, and only with respect to a
matter as to which they shall have acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made if such person shall
have been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that
the court in which the action or suit was brought shall determine upon
application that the defendant directors, officers, employees or agents are
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses despite such
adjudication of liability.
The indemnification provided by the Certificate and the By-Laws shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any of those seeking
indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any by-law,
agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as
to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has
ceased to be a
- 2 -
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.
Article NINTH of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended, provides that the Company's directors shall not be personally liable to
the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, except for liability: (a) for any breach of the duty of
loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (c) under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware, which makes directors liable for unlawful dividends or unlawful stock
repurchases or redemptions, or (d) for transactions from which directors derive
improper personal benefit.
The Company also maintains director and officer insurance coverage.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted of directors and officers of the Company pursuant
to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Company has been advised that,
although the validity and scope of the governing statute has not been tested in
court, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In addition,
indemnification may be limited by state securities laws.
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

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 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.
(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 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 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 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.
