PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Shareholders have advised the Company that they may offer
the Shares for sale from time to time in transactions effected on the
New York Stock Exchange (or through the facilities of any national
securities exchange or U.S. inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association, on which the Shares are
then listed, admitted to unlisted trading privileges or included for
quotation), in privately negotiated transactions, or in a combination
of such methods of sale. Such methods of sale may be conducted at
market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such
prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The Selling
Shareholders may effect such transactions directly, or indirectly
through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents acting on its behalf,
and in connection with such sales, such broker-dealers or agents may
receive compensation in the form of commissions, concessions, allowances
or discounts from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of the
Shares for whom they may act as agent or to whom they sell Shares as
principal or both (which commissions, concessions, allowances or
discounts might be in excess of customary amounts thereof). To the
extent required, the names of any agents, broker-dealers or
underwriters and applicable commissions, concessions, allowances or
discounts and any other required information with respect to any
particular offer of the Shares by the Selling Shareholders, will be
set forth in a Prospectus Supplement. The Company has been advised
that the Selling Shareholders may effect sales of the Shares directly,
or indirectly by or through agents or broker-dealers and that the
Shares may be sold by one or more of the following methods:
(a) ordinary brokerage transactions, (b) purchases by a broker-dealer
as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its own account, and
<PAGE>
(c) in "block" sale transactions. At the time a particular offer is
made, a Prospectus Supplement, if required, will be distributed that
sets forth the name or names of agents or broker-dealers, any
commissions and other terms constituting selling compensation and any
other required information. Moreover, in effecting sales, broker-
dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of
the Shares may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in the
sales process. Broker-dealers will receive discounts or commissions
from the Selling Shareholders and/or the purchasers of the Shares in
amounts which will be negotiated prior to the time of sale. Sales
made by broker-dealers will be made only through broker-dealers
registered as such in a subject jurisdiction or in transactions exempt
from such registration. The Company has not been advised of any
definitive selling arrangement at the date of this Prospectus between
the Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealer or agent.
In connection with the distribution of the Shares, the Selling
Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers.
In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers may engage in
short sales of the Shares in the course of hedging the positions they
assume with the Selling Shareholders. The Selling Shareholders may
also sell the Shares short and redeliver the Shares to close out the
short positions. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option
or other transactions with broker-dealers which require the delivery
of the Shares to the broker-dealer and the broker-dealer may sell the
Shares so loaned, or upon a default, the broker-dealer may effect sales
of the pledged shares.
Any broker-dealer participating in any distribution of Shares in
connection with the offering made hereby may be deemed to be an
"underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and may be
required to deliver a copy of this Prospectus, including a Prospectus
Supplement, to any person who purchases any of the Shares from or
through such broker-dealer.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Sections 48-18-501 through 48-18-509 of the Tennessee Business
Corporation Law permit a corporation to indemnify directors and
officers against liability incurred in certain proceedings if the
individual's conduct was in good faith and the individual reasonably
believed, in the case of conduct in the individual's official capacity,
that such conduct was in the best interests of the corporation and,
in all other cases, believed such conduct was at least not opposed to
the best interests of the corporation. If the proceeding is criminal,
the individual must have at least had no reasonable cause to believe
that such conduct was unlawful. The statute requires a corporation to
indemnify an individual who is wholly successful in the defense of any
such proceeding against reasonable expenses incurred by such individual,
unless the Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise. The
corporation may pay for or reimburse the reasonable expenses incurred
by a director or officer who is a party to a proceeding in advance of
final disposition of the proceeding if certain conditions are satisfied.
Unless otherwise provided in the Charter, a director or officer may
apply for court ordered indemnification which will include reasonable
expenses incurred to obtain the indemnification order if the court
determines that the director is entitled to mandatory indemnification
or that the director is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances. Except in
the case of mandatory indemnification, a corporation may indemnify a
director or officer only after it is determined that the individual
meets the standard of conduct described above. In addition, a
corporation may also indemnify and advance expenses to an officer,
whether or not a director, to the extent, consistent with public
policy, that may be provided by its charter, bylaws, general or
specific action of its Board of Directors or contract.
Section 48-18-508 of the Tennessee Business Corporation Law empowers
a Tennessee corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf
of any director or officer against any liability asserted against, or
incurred by, such individual in any such capacity or arising out of his
or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have had
the power to indemnify against such liability. In addition, the
Company has entered into an indemnification agreement with each of its
outside directors pursuant to which such director will be indemnified
and held harmless by the Company from and against all liabilities
incurred as a result of being a director of the Company to the extent
permitted by law.

Item 17. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales of the
securities 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;
(ii) to reflect 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 the Registration
Statement. Not withstanding the forgoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities
offered would not exceed that which was registered and any deviation
from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be
reflected in the form of Prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price
represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the
effective registration statement;
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed or any material change to such
information set forth in the Registration Statement.
Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(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 Section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.
<PAGE>
(2) that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each 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.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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.
(c) 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 forgoing
provision, 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, other 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 as expressed in the Securities Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
