ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

  Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware ("Delaware Law")
enables a corporation in its original certificate of incorporation or an
amendment thereto to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to
a corporation or its stockholders for violations of the director's fiduciary
duty, except (i) for any breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the
corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)
pursuant to Section 174 of the Delaware Law (providing for liability of
directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or
redemptions, or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an
improper personal benefit. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as
amended, provides in effect for the elimination of the liability of directors to
the extent permitted by Delaware Law.

  Section 145 of the Delaware Law provides, in summary, that directors and
officers of Delaware corporations are entitled, under certain circumstances, to
be indemnified against all expenses and liabilities (including attorney's fees)
incurred by them as a result of suits brought against them in their capacity as
a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had
no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; provided, that no
indemnification may be made against expenses in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which they shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action
or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, they
are fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the
court shall deem proper. Any such indemnification may be made by the corporation
only as authorized in each specific 
<PAGE>
 
case upon a determination by the stockholders or disinterested directors that
indemnification is proper because the indemnitee has met the applicable standard
of conduct. The Company's Bylaws entitle officers and directors of the Company
to indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law.

  The Company has entered into an agreement with each of its directors and
certain officers which provide for indemnification by the Company against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In
addition, the Company maintains an insurance policy with respect to potential
liabilities of its directors and officers, including potential liabilities under
the Securities Act. Additionally, the Company has established an Indemnification
Trust for the benefit of directors and certain executive officers and has
deposited $500,000 in such trust to secure the indemnification obligations of
the Company to such persons.

  See Item 17 of this Registration Statement regarding the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") may be permitted to directors, officers
and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described
under Item 15 above, 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 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 of 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.

  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;

      (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 
<PAGE>
 
    in the registration statement;

      (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
    distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
    material change to such information in the registration statement;
    provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
    registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the
    information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
    paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant
    to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
    ("Exchange Act") that are incorporated by reference in the 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.

    (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 Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange 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.
