ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
  Section 145 of the DGCL authorizes, inter alia, a corporation generally to
indemnify any person ("indemnitee") who was or is a party or is threatened to
be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by
reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
corporation, in a similar position with another corporation or entity, against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
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
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. With respect to actions
or suits by or in the right of the corporation, however, an indemnitee who
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation is generally limited to
attorneys' fees and other expenses, and no indemnification shall be made if
such person is adjudged liable to the corporation unless and only to the
extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that indemnification
is appropriate. Section 145 further provides that any indemnification shall be
made by the corporation only as authorized in each specific case upon a
determination by the (i) stockholders, (ii) board of directors by a majority
vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action,
suit or proceeding or (iii) independent counsel if a quorum of disinterested
directors so directs, that indemnification of the indemnitee is proper because
he has met the applicable standard of conduct. Section 145 provides that
indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not exclusive of other rights of
indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any by-law, agreement,
vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
 
  The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Company will indemnify,
to the full extent authorized or permitted by law, any person made, or
threatened to be made, a party or witness to any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil or criminal or otherwise, by reason of the fact that he or she
is or was a director or officer of the Company or by reason of the fact that
such director or officer, at the request of the Company, is or was serving any
other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or
other enterprise, in any capacity.
 
  The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that no director of the
Company will be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for
monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty by such a director as a
director other than for: (i) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to
the Company or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)
authorization of illegal dividends, or (iv) any transaction from which such
director derived an improper personal benefit.

  The Company also has directors' and officers' insurance which covers its
directors and executive officers.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
 
  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters
at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
 
                                     II-3

  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 Securities
Act of 1933 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 of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
 
  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
    (1) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
  of 1933, the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part
  of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
  a form of Prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
  (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part
  of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
    (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
  of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of Prospectus
  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.
