</TABLE>

ITEM 15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

     Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
("Section 145") permits a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party 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 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
as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against 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 if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person
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 such person's conduct was unlawful.

     In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, Section 145
permits the corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor 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
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys'
fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interest of the corporation. No indemnification may be made in respect of any
claim, issue, or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of
Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine
upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all
the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court
shall deem proper.

     To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation
has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in the preceding two paragraphs, Section 145 requires
that such person be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees)
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.



                                      II-1
<PAGE>   4

     Section 145 provides that expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by
an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative, or
investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid the corporation in advance
of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if
it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be
indemnified by the corporation as authorized in Section 145.

     The Company's Certificate provides that an officer or director of the
Company will not be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for
monetary damages for any breach of his fiduciary duty as an officer or director,
except in certain cases where liability is mandated by the DGCL. The provision
has no effect on any non-monetary remedies that may be available to the Company
or its stockholders, nor does it relieve the Company or its officers or
directors from compliance with federal or state securities laws. The Certificate
also generally provides that the Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a
party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, investigation,
administrative hearing or any other proceeding (each, a "Proceeding") by reason
of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was
serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another entity, against expenses incurred by him in connection with such
Proceeding. An officer or director shall not be entitled to indemnification by
the Company if (i) the officer or director did not act in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of
the Company, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the
officer or director had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

     The Bylaws of the Company provide that it shall indemnify any person who is
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding
by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the
Company, and may indemnify any employee or agent of the Company in such
circumstances, against expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding. No indemnification may be
provided for any person who shall have been finally adjudicated not to have
acted honestly or in the reasonable belief that his or her action was in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Company or who had reasonable cause to
believe that his or her conduct was unlawful. Indemnification must be provided
to any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company to the extent such
person has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action
or claim described above. Any indemnification under this provision of the
Bylaws, unless required under the Bylaws or ordered by a court, can be made only
as authorized in each specific case upon a determination by a majority of
disinterested directors or by independent legal counsel or by the stockholders
that such indemnification is appropriate under the standard set forth in the
preceding sentence.

ITEM 17.  UNDERTAKINGS

     The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     -    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. However, 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 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 Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

          (iii)To include any material information about the plan of
               distribution not previously disclosed in this registration
               statement or any material change to this information in this
               registration statement.

     However, subparagraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information
     required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
     is contained in the periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
     Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
     incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

     -    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
          herein, and the offering of such Securities at that time shall be
          deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     -    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.

                The undersigned Registrant hereby further undertakes that, for
the purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference
in this registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the Securities offered herein, and the offering of such
Securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

                As far as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant under the provisions of this registration statement,
or otherwise (other than insurance), the Registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in such 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 such Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
