part of this registration statement by any person or party who is
deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c) of the
Securities Act [17 CFR 230.145c], the reoffering prospectus will

for reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition

form.
(2) The undersigned registrant agrees that every prospectus that is filed
under paragraph (1) above will be filed as a part of an amendment to
the registration statement and will not be used until the amendment is
effective, and that, in determining any liability under the 1933 Act,
each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement for the securities offered therein, and the offering of the
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering of them.
(3) The undersigned registrant undertakes to file, by post-effective
amendment within a reasonable time after its receipt, an opinion of
counsel supporting the tax consequences of the proposed reorganization.
