Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

    Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a Delaware
corporation to indemnify its officers and directors and specific other persons
to the extent and under the circumstances set forth therein.

    Under Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the
Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated upon the
closing of this offering, eliminates the personal liability of a director to
the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director, except for liabilities arising (a) from any
breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
stockholders; (b) from acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c) under Section 174 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law; or (d) from any transaction from which
the director derived an improper personal benefit.

    The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated upon
the closing of this offering, requires the Registrant to indemnify the
Registrant's directors and officers to the extent permitted under Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

    The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated upon
the closing of this offering, also provides that the Registrant shall 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, by reason of the fact that he is or
was a director or officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the
request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, in
accordance with provisions corresponding to Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Further, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, as
amended and restated upon the closing

                                      II-1
<PAGE>

of this offering, provides that any person, other than an officer or director,
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, by reason of the fact that he is or was an
employee or agent of the Registrant, or was serving at the request of the
Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, and who desires
indemnification shall make written application for such indemnification to the
Board of Directors for its determination that indemnification is appropriate,
and if so, to what extent.

    The Registrant's Bylaws, as amended and restated upon the closing of this
offering, also provide that the Registrant may indemnify, to the extent of the
provisions set forth therein, any person other than an officer or director 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, by reason of the fact that he is or was an
employee or agent of the Registrant, or was serving at the request of the
Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, if such person makes
written application for such indemnification to the Registrant's Board of
Directors and the Registrant's Board determines that indemnification is
appropriate and the extent thereof. The Registrant's Bylaws, as amended and
restated upon the closing of this offering, further provide that the
indemnification described therein is not exclusive and shall not exclude any
other rights to which the person seeking to be indemnified may be entitled
under statute, any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and to his
action in another capacity while holding such office.

    The above discussion of Section 145 and of the Registrant's Certificate of
Incorporation and Bylaws, both as amended and restated upon the closing of this
offering, is not intended to be exhaustive and is respectively qualified in its
entirety by such statute, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, both
as amended and restated upon the closing of this offering.

    The Registrant intends to obtain primary and excess insurance policies
insuring its directors and officers and those of its subsidiaries against some
liabilities they may incur in their capacity as directors and officers. Under
such policies, the insurer, on behalf of the Registrant, may also pay amounts
for which the Registrant has granted indemnification to the directors or
officers.

Item 17. Undertakings.

    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 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 Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than 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.

    The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

      (1) To provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the
  underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered
  in such names as required by the underwriters to permit proper delivery to
  each purchaser.

      (2) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
  of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
  of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
  a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
  (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
  registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

                                      II-8
<PAGE>

      (3) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
  of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
  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.
