PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS
ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Holdings. Holdings is a limited partnership organized under the laws of
the State of Delaware. Section 17-108 of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act (the "Act") provides that, subject to such standards and
restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited partnership agreement, a
limited partnership may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold
harmless any member or general partner or other person from and against any and
all claims and demands whatsoever.
Section 5.10 of Holdings' Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
Partnership provides, among other things, that Holdings shall indemnify and hold
harmless TCC and each affiliate, officer, director, controlling person, partner,
employee or shareholder of TCC ("Indemnified Person") from and against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable legal
fees and expenses), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts relating to
any and all claims, demands, actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, which relate to TCC's status or
activities as the general partner or to Holdings' property, business or affairs
("Claims"). An Indemnified Person's expenses paid or incurred in defending
itself against any Claim shall be reimbursed as paid or incurred.
Holdings may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect any person
against any expense, liability or loss, to the extent that Holdings would have
the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under
the Act.
Holdings intends to obtain insurance policies covering all of its directors
and officers against certain liabilities for actions taken in such capacities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.
Capital. Capital is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, inter alia
("Section 145") provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons
who were, are or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation),
by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee
or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such
corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such
person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be
or not opposed to the corporation's best interests and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or
her conduct was illegal. A Delaware corporation may indemnify any persons who
are, were or are threatened to be made, party to any threatened, pending or
completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation by reasons of the
fact that such person was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The
indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement
of such action or suit, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner
he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation's best
interests, provided that no indemnification is permitted without judicial
approval if the officer, director, employee or agent is adjudged to be liable to
the corporation. Where an officer, director, employee or agent is successful on
the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to above, the
corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses which such officer or
director has actually and reasonably incurred.
Capital's Certificate of Incorporation provides that to the fullest extent
permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same
exists or may hereafter be amended, a director of Capital shall not be liable to
Capital or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty
as a director.
II-1
<PAGE> 3
Article V of the By-laws of Capital ("Article V") provides, among other
things, that each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made
a party to or is involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he or she,
or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director
or officer, of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of Capital as
a director, officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of another corporation or of
a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall be indemnified
and held harmless by Capital to the fullest extent which it is empowered to do
so by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as the same exists
or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the
extent that such amendment permits Capital to provide broader indemnification
rights than said law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such
amendment) against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such
proceeding) and such indemnification shall inure to the benefit of his or her
heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, Capital shall
indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a
proceeding initiated by such person only if such proceeding was authorized by
the board of directors of Capital.
Article V also provides that persons who are not covered by the foregoing
provisions of Article V and who are or were employees or agents of Capital, or
who are or were serving at the request of Capital as employees or agents of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, may
be indemnified to the extent authorized at any time or from time to time by the
board of directors.
Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise,
against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in
any such capacity, arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the
corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him or her under Section
145.
Article V further provides that Capital may purchase and maintain insurance
on its behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer,
employee, fiduciary, or agent of Capital or was serving at the request of
Capital as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability
asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity,
whether or not Capital would have the power to indemnify such person against
such liability under Article V.
All of Capital's directors and officers will be covered by insurance
policies intended to be obtained by Capital against certain liabilities for
actions taken in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act
of 1933.

ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the registration statement;
(iii) 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 the 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.
(4) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake as follows: that
prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder
through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement,
by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the
meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuers undertake that such reoffering
prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable
registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed
underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other Items
of the applicable form.
(5) The registrants undertake that every prospectus (i) that is filed
pursuant to paragraph (1) immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to
meet the requirements of section 10(a)(3) of the Act and is used in
connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be
filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not
be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective
II-4
<PAGE> 6
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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrants pursuant to the provisions described
under Item 20 or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange 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 registrants of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants 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 registrants will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
(6) For purposes 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 registrants pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(7) 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.
(8) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to respond to
requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the
prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this form, within one
business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated
documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes
information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date
of the registration statement through the date of responding to the
request.
(9) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to supply by means of
a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and
the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of
and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
