                     filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
                     (the "SECURITIES ACT"), relating to the Company's initial
                     public offering of its Common Stock (the "OFFERING").

             2.      The description of Registrant's Common Stock contained in
                     the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-A (File
                     No.  000-23597) pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities

                                      II-1

<PAGE>   4
             The Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
provides for the indemnification of directors to the fullest extent permissible
under Delaware law.

             The Registrant's Bylaws provide for the indemnification of
officers, directors and third parties acting on behalf of the Registrant if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in
and not opposed to the best interest of the Registrant, and, with respect to
any criminal action or proceeding, the indemnified party had no reason to
believe his conduct was unlawful.

             The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with
its directors and executive officers, in addition to indemnification provided
for in the Registrant's Bylaws, and intends to enter into indemnification
agreements with any new directors and executive officers in the future.

             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, 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, each filing of
the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) 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 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 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

         RE:  REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by
you with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about April 7, 1998 (the
"Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 2,550,000 shares of your Common Stock,
$0.001 par value per share (the "Shares"). As your legal counsel, we have
examined the proceedings taken, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed
to be taken, by you in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares.

         It is our opinion that, upon completion of the proceedings being taken
or contemplated by us, as your legal counsel, to be taken prior to the issuance
of the Shares, the Shares, when issued and sold in the manner described in the
Registration Statement and in accordance with the resolutions adopted by your
Board of Directors, will be legally and validly issued, fully-paid and
non-assessable.
