Part II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference
The following documents have been filed by the Company with
the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and are incorporated herein by reference:
1. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1994.
2. Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal
quarter ended March 31, 1995.
3. The description of the Company's Common Stock
included in Registration Statement on Form 8-A
dated May 26, 1989.
All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the 1934 Act, prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered hereby have
been sold or which deregisters all securities then 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. Any statement contained
in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently
filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein
modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded
shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part
of this Registration Statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors
Reference is made to Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law (the "Delaware GCL"), as amended from time to time ("Section
145"), which provides for indemnification of directors and officers of a
corporation in certain circumstances. Under Article 5.2 of the registrant's
Amended By-laws, the registrant shall, to the full extent permitted by Section
145, indemnify all persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto. Additionally,
Article 5.2 provides that such indemnification is not exclusive of any other
rights under, for example, an indemnity contract or vote of shareholders or
disinterested directors, and that such indemnification rights continue as to a
person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit
of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.
Article Eighth of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of
the registrant provides for indemnification of directors and officers of the
registrant. The provisions of Article Eighth, among other matters, require the
registrant to indemnify certain persons to the fullest extent authorized by the
Delaware GCL, as the same may now exist or may hereafter be amended (but, in the
case of any such amendment only to the extent that such amendment permits the
registrant to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the
registrant to provide prior to such amendment). Article Eighth provides that the
right to indemnification is a contract right and makes advances of expenses
incurred in defending a proceeding mandatory, provided that if required by the
Delaware GCL, the person seeking such advances furnishes an undertaking to the
registrant to repay all amounts so entitled to be indemnified. Article Eighth
also expressly provides that any person claiming indemnification may sue the
registrant for payment of amounts due, that the registrant in such case will
have the burden of proving that the claimant has not met the standards of
conduct which make it permissible to indemnify the person for the amount claimed
under the Delaware GCL (except in the case of a claim for advancement of
expenses, where the required undertaking, if any, has been tendered, in which
case it shall not be a defense that the person has not met the applicable
standards of conduct), and that neither the failure by the registrant to have
made a determination that indemnification is proper, nor an actual determination
by the registrant that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of
conduct, is a defense to the action or creates a presumption that the claimant
has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
The registrant currently maintains directors' and officers'
liability insurance to supplement the protection provided in the registrant's
Amended By-laws and to fund certain payments that the registrant may be required
to make under any such provisions. Such insurance is renewable annually and is
subject to standard terms and conditions, including exclusions from coverage.

Item 9. Undertakings
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:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)
of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act");
(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 this registration
statement;
(iii) 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 1933 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.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
1934 Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the 1934 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.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
1933 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 1933 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
