Item 9. Undertakings.

The Registrant hereby undertakes:

(c) (1) to file,  during  any period in which it offers or sells  securities,  a
post  effective  amendment  to  this  registration   statement  to  include  any
prospectus required by Section 10(a) (3) of the Securities Act;

         (2) that,  for the  purpose  of  determining  any  liability  under the
Securities  Act  of  1933,  to  treat  each  post-effective  amendment  as a new
registration  statement  of the  securities  offered,  and the  offering  of the
securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering;

         (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective  amendment
any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of the small business  issuer pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or
otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and is,  therefore,  unenforceable.  In the event that a
claim for  indemnification  against such liabilities  (other than the payment by
the Company in the  successful  defense of any action,  suit or  proceeding)  is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person

                                        3

in connection with the securities being registered,  the Company will, unless in
the  opinion  of this  counsel  that  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 jurisdiction of such issue.
