         -------------

         (a)      The undersigned Company hereby undertakes:

                  (1)      To file,  during any period in which  offers or sales
                           are being made,  a  post-effective  amendment  to the
                           Registration Statement to: (i) include any prospectus
                           required by Section  10(a)(3) of the Securities  Act;
                           (ii)  reflect in the  prospectus  any facts or events
                           arising after the effective date of the  Registration
                           Statement  which,  individually  or in the aggregate,
                           represent a fundamental change in the information set
                           forth   in   the    Registration    Statement;    and
                           notwithstanding   the  foregoing,   any  increase  or
                           decrease  in volume  of  securities  offered  (if the
                           total dollar value of  securities  offered  would not
                           exceed that which was  registered)  and any deviation
                           from  the low or high  end of the  estimated  maximum
                           offering  range  may be  reflected  in the  form of a
                           prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
                           424(b) if, in the  aggregate,  the  changes in volume
                           and price  represent no more than a 20 percent change
                           in the maximum aggregate  offering price set forth in
                           the  "Calculation  of  Registration"   table  in  the
                           effective registration  statement;  and (iii) 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,  provided
                           however,   that  provisions  (i)  and  (ii)  of  this
                           undertaking are inapplicable if the information to be
                           filed  thereunder  is contained  in periodic  reports
                           filed by the  Company  pursuant to the  Exchange  Act
                           that  are   incorporated   by   reference   into  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
                           post-effective  amendment any of the securities being
                           registered which remains unsold at the termination of
                           the offering.

         (b)      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  Company  has been
                  advised   that  in  the   opinion  of  the   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  director,  officer or  controlling  person 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 Company
                  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  is against  public policy as expressed in the
                  Securities Act and will be governed by the final  adjudication
                  of such issue.

         (c)      The  Company   hereby   undertakes   that,   for  purposes  of
                  determining  any  liability  under the  Securities  Act,  each
                  filing of the  Company's  annual  report  pursuant  to Section
                  13(a) or 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 this 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.
