Item 4. Description of Securities
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees and agents against
certain liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act, provided they act in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. The registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws require
the registrant to indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law.
Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to limit or eliminate its directors' liability to the corporation or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duties, other
than for (i) breaches of the duty of loyalty, (ii) acts or omissions not in bad
faith that involve intentional misconduct or knowing violations of law, (iii)
unlawful payments of dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or (iv)
transactions from which a director derives an improper personal benefit. The
registrant's Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions limiting the
liability of the directors to the registrant and to its stockholders to the full
extent permitted by Delaware law.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a
corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation against any
liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such
capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such. The registrant's
Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the registrant may, to the
full extent permitted by law, purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
director, officer, employee or agent of the registrant against any liability
that may be asserted against him or her and the registrant currently maintains
such insurance. The registrant will obtain liability insurance covering its
directors and officers for claims

asserted against them or incurred by them in such capacity, including claims
brought under the Securities Act.

Item 9. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a) (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 this registration statement or any material change to such
information in this 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; and (iii) 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) 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 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.
(c) 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 registrant's Certificate of Incorporation or
by-laws, by contract, or otherwise, the registrant 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 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
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
