                                    PART II

              INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
              --------------------------------------------------

Item 3.   Incorporation of Documents by Reference
------    ---------------------------------------

          We hereby incorporate by reference in this registration statement the
following documents:

          (a)  Our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-95695) and
amendments thereto, including the Prospectus dated April 7, 2000, filed for the
purpose of registering certain shares of our common stock under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in connection with our initial
public offering.

          (b)  Our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended
March 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000, filed pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

          (c)  The description of our common stock to be offered hereby is
contained in our registration statement on Form 8-A filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2000 pursuant to Section 12(g) of the
Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of
updating such description.

          All documents subsequently filed by us pursuant to Sections 13(a),
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement which indicates that all securities
offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities remaining
unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this registration
statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.

Item 4.   Description of Securities
------    -------------------------

          Not applicable.

Item 5.   Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
------    --------------------------------------

          The validity of the securities registered hereby has been passed upon
for us by Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, Professional Corporation ("WSGR"),
Palo Alto, California. John V. Roos, a member of WSGR, owns 43,021 shares of our
common stock. In addition, an aggregate of 43,979 shares of the Company's Common
Stock have been distributed to certain current and former members or employees
of WSGR.

Item 6.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers
------    -----------------------------------------

          Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation limits the
personal liability of directors for breach of fiduciary duty to the maximum
extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a
corporation will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for:

                                      II-1
<PAGE>

          .    any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our
               stockholders;

          .    acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
               misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

          .    unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases,
               redemptions or other distributions; or

          .    any transaction from which the director derived an improper
               personal benefit.

          Our bylaws require that we indemnify our directors and officers to the
extent permitted by Delaware law.  We may, in our discretion, indemnify other
employees and agents to the extent permitted by Delaware law.  We believe that
indemnification under our bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence
on the part of indemnified parties.  Our bylaws also permit us to secure
insurance on behalf of any of our officers, directors, employees or other agents
for any liability incurred in that capacity or arising out of that status,
regardless of whether indemnification is permitted under Delaware law.

          We have also entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and
officers.  These agreements indemnify our directors and officers for some
expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts
incurred by them in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the
right of our company, arising out of their services as one of our directors or
officers, any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to which
the person provides services at our request.  In addition, we have obtained
directors' and officers' insurance providing indemnification for some of our
directors, officers and employees for certain liabilities.  We believe that
these provisions, agreements and insurance are necessary to attract and retain
qualified directors and officers.

          The limited liability and indemnification provisions in our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage stockholders from
bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty and
may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and
officers, even though a derivative action, if successful, might otherwise
benefit us and our stockholders. Moreover, a stockholder's investment in us may
be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement or damage
awards against our directors and officers under these indemnification
provisions.

Item 9.   Undertakings
------    ------------

          (a)  Rule 415 Offering  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)  Filings incorporating subsequent Exchange Act documents by
               ----------------------------------------------------------
reference
---------

          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)  Request for acceleration of effective date or filing of
               -------------------------------------------------------
registration statement on Form S-8
----------------------------------

          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 Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
