                  May 2, 1994 (the "Form 8-A").

         All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections
13(a),  13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
prior to the  filing of a  post-effective  amendment  which  indicates  that all

not have a  substantial  interest in or  connection  with the  Registrant or its

Item 6.      Indemnification of Directors and Officers

         Article  10 of  Chapter 9 of Title  13.1 of the Code of  Virginia  (the
"Code") permits a Virginia  corporation to indemnify any director or officer for
reasonable  expenses  incurred  in any  legal  proceeding  in  advance  of final
disposition  of the  proceeding,  if  the  director  or  officer  furnishes  the
corporation  a written  statement  of his good faith  belief that he has met the
standard of conduct  prescribed by the Code, and a determination  is made by the
board of directors that such standard has been met. In a proceeding by or in the
right of the  corporation,  no  indemnification  shall be made in respect of any
matter  as to which an  officer  or  director  is  adjudged  to be liable to the
corporation,  unless the court in which the  proceeding  took  place  determines
that,   despite  such   liability,   such  person  is  reasonably   entitled  to
indemnification  in  view of all of the  relevant  circumstances.  In any  other
proceeding,  no  indemnification  shall be made if the  director  or  officer is
adjudged  liable to the  corporation  on the basis  that  personal  benefit  was
improperly  received by him.  Corporations are given the power to make any other
or further indemnity,  including advance of expenses, to any director or officer
that may be authorized by the articles of incorporation or any bylaw made by the
shareholders,  or any  resolution  adopted,  before or after the  event,  by the
shareholders,  except  an  indemnity  against  willful  misconduct  or a knowing
violation of the criminal law. Unless limited by its articles of  incorporation,
indemnification  of a director or officer is mandatory when he entirely prevails
in the defense of any  proceeding  to which he is a party because he is or was a
director or officer.

         The Articles of  Incorporation  of the  Registrant  contain  provisions
indemnifying  the directors and officers of the Registrant  against expenses and
liabilities  incurred  in legal  proceedings  to the full  extent  permitted  by
Virginia law.

Item 7.      Exemption from Registration Claimed

         Not applicable.

Item 9.      Undertakings

         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 of
                                    1933;

                           (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 in the  registration
                                    statement.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,
                                    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  20  percent
                                    change  in the  maximum  aggregate  offering
                                    price  set  forth  in  the  "Calculation  of
                                    Registration  Fee"  table  in the  effective
                                    registration statement; and

                           (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.

                  (2)      That,  for the purpose of  determining  any liability
                           under  the   Securities   Act  of  1933,   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.

<PAGE>

                  (3)      To   remove   from   registration   by   means  of  a
                           post-effective  amendment any of the securities being
                           registered  that remain unsold at the  termination of
                           the offering.

         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.

         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  foregoing  provisions,   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 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 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
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
