Item 9. Undertakings.
The Registrant hereby undertakes:
(c) (1) to file, during any period in which it offers or sells securities, a
post effective amendment to this registration statement to include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a) (3) of the Securities Act;
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, to treat each post-effective amendment as a new
registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the
securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering;
(3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or
otherwise, the small business issuer 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 Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
3
in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in
the opinion of this counsel that 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 jurisdiction of such issue.
