Item 27.          Indemnification

                  Reference   is  made  to  Article   VII,   Section  3  of  the
                  Registrant's   Articles  of  Incorporation,   incorporated  by
                  reference as Exhibit (1) hereto,  and Article VI, Section 2 of
                  Registrant's By-Laws, incorporated by reference as Exhibit (2)
                  hereto.

                  Insofar as  indemnification  for  liability  arising under the
                  Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers
                  and  controlling   persons  of  Registrant   pursuant  to  the
                  foregoing  provisions,  or  otherwise,   Registrant  has  been
                  advised  that in the opinion of the  Securities  and  Exchange
                  Commission  such  indemnification  is against public policy as
                  expressed in the Act and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the
                  event   that  a  claim  for   indemnification   against   such
                  liabilities  (other than the payment by Registrant of expenses
                  incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person
                  of 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,  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 of
                  whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
                  expressed  in the  Act  and  will  be  governed  by the  final
                  adjudication of such issue.
