         The shares offered by this Prospectus may be sold on the New York Stock

                     SEC POSITION REGARDING INDEMNIFICATION

         Our  Amended  and  Restated   Certificate  of  Formation  provides  for
indemnification  of  officers  and  directors  for any  loss,  damage  or  claim
(including reasonable attorneys' fees) due to any act or omission made by him or
her, except in the case of fraudulent or illegal conduct.

         We have been  informed  that,  in the  opinion  of the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission, insofar as directors, officers or other persons who control
us may become entitled under the provisions of our certificate of  incorporation
to  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising under the Securities Act of 1933,
that  indemnification  is against  public policy as expressed in that Act and is
therefore unenforceable.
