Item 4. Description of Securities.
-------------------------
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
--------------------------------------
Certain legal matters with respect to the shares will be passed upon
by Wilson, Sonsini, Goodrich & Rosati, a Professional Corporation, Palo Alto,
California.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
-----------------------------------------
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law generally
provides that a corporation is empowered to indemnify any person who is made a
party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation or is or was serving, at the request of the corporation, in any
of such capacities of another corporation or other enterprise, if such director,
officer, employee or agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and,
with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. This statute describes in detail the right of
PMC to indemnify any such person.
PMC's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates in certain circumstances
the liability of directors of PMC for monetary damages for breach of their
fiduciary duty as directors. This provision does not eliminate the liability of
a director (i) for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to PMC or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions by the director not in good faith or
which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for
willful or negligent declaration of an unlawful dividend, stock purchase or
redemption or (iv) for transactions from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit.
PMC's Certificate of Incorporation also provides generally for
indemnification of all directors and officers of PMC to the fullest extent
permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Such right to
indemnification shall be deemed to be a contract right and includes generally
the right to be paid by PMC the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding
covered by this provision in advance of its final disposition. Individuals who
are entitled to indemnification may bring suit to seek recovery of amounts due
under the foregoing provisions and to recover the expenses of such suit if
successful.
<PAGE>
PMC has entered into indemnification agreements to such effect with its
officers and directors containing provisions which are in some respects broader
than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the General
Corporation Law of Delaware. The indemnification agreements may require PMC,
among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain
liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or
officers (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable
nature) and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding
against them as to which they could be indemnified.
PMC believes that it is the position of the Commission that insofar as
the foregoing provisions may be invoked to disclaim liability for damages
arising under the Securities Act, such provisions are against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and are therefore unenforceable.
PMC currently maintains an officers' and directors' liability insurance
policy which covers, subject to the exclusions and limitations of the policy,
officers and directors of PMC against certain liabilities which may be incurred
by them solely in such capacities.

Item 9. Undertakings.
------------
(a) PMC hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales
are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
registration statement 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.
(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
post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) PMC hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of PMC'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.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of PMC pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of
Incorporation or the Bylaws of PMC, Indemnification Agreements entered into
between PMC and its officers and directors, or otherwise, PMC has been advised
that in the opinion of the 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 PMC 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 hereunder, PMC 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.
