II-1
<PAGE> 5
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.
Not applicable.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Subchapter D of Chapter 17 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law of
1988, as amended (the "BCL"), (15 Pa. C.S.A. Sections 1741-1750) provides
that a business corporation shall have the power under certain circumstances to
indemnify directors, officers, employees and agents against certain expenses
incurred by them in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding.
Section 1721 of the BCL (relating to the Board of Directors) declares that
unless otherwise provided by statute or in a by-law adopted by the shareholders,
all powers enumerated in Section 1502 (relating to general powers) and elsewhere
in the BCL or otherwise vested by law in a business corporation shall be
exercised by or under the authority of, and the business and affairs of every
business corporation shall be managed under the direction of, a board of
directors. If any such provision is made in the by-laws, the powers and duties
conferred or imposed upon the board of directors under the BCL shall be
exercised or performed to such extent and by such person or persons as shall be
provided in the by-laws.
Section 1712 of the BCL provides that a director shall stand in a
fiduciary relation to the corporation and shall perform his duties as a
director, including his duties as a member of any committee of the board upon
which he may serve, in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in
the best interests of the corporation and with such care, including reasonable
inquiry, skill and diligence, as a person of ordinary prudence would use under
similar circumstances. In performing his duties, a director shall be entitled to
rely in good faith on information, opinions, reports or statements, including
financial statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or
presented by any of the following:
(1) one or more officers or employees of the corporation whom the director
reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented;
(2) counsel, public accountants or other persons as to matters which the
director reasonably believes to be within the professional or expert competence
of such person; or
(3) a committee of the board upon which he does not serve, duly designated
in accordance with law, as to matters within its designated authority, which
committee the director reasonably believes to merit confidence.
A director shall not be considered to be acting in good faith, if he has
knowledge concerning the matter in question that would cause his reliance to be
unwarranted.
Section 1716 also states that in discharging the duties of their
respective positions, the
II-2
<PAGE> 6
board of directors, committees of the board and individual directors may, in
considering the best interests of the corporation, consider the effects of any
action upon employees, upon suppliers and customers of the corporation and upon
communities in which offices or other establishments of the corporation are
located, and all other pertinent factors. The consideration of those factors
shall not constitute a violation of Section 1712. In addition, absent breach of
fiduciary duty, lack of good faith or self-dealing, actions taken as a director
or any failure to take any action shall be presumed to be in the best interests
of the corporation.
Moreover, Section 1713 addresses the personal liability of directors and
states that if a by-law adopted by the shareholders so provides, a director
shall not be personally liable, as such, for monetary damages for any action
taken, or any failure to take any action, unless:
(1) the director has breached or failed to perform the duties of his office
under this section; and
(2) the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing, willful
misconduct or recklessness.
The provisions discussed above shall not apply to:
(1) the responsibility or liability of a director pursuant to any criminal
statute; or
(2) the liability of a director for the payment of taxes pursuant to
local, state or federal law.
Finally, Section 1714 states that a director of a corporation who is
present at a meeting of its board of directors, or of a committee of the board,
at which action on any corporate matter is taken shall be presumed to have
assented to the action taken unless his dissent is entered in the minutes of the
meeting or unless he files his written dissent to the action with the secretary
of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or transmits the dissent in
writing to the secretary of the corporation immediately after the adjournment of
the meeting. The right to dissent shall not apply to a director who voted in
favor of the action. Nothing in this Section 1721 shall bar a director from
asserting that minutes of the meeting incorrectly omitted his dissent if,
promptly upon receipt of a copy of such minutes, he notified the secretary, in
writing, of the asserted omission or inaccuracy.
Section 1741 of the BCL (relating to third party actions) provides that
unless otherwise restricted in its by-laws, a business corporation shall have
the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action
by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of the fact that such person
is or was a representative of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a representative of another domestic or foreign
corporation for profit or not-for-profit, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments,
II-3
<PAGE> 7
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such
person in connection with the action or proceeding if such person 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 proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of
any action or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction or upon a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not of itself create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner that he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation, and with respect to any criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause
to believe that his conduct was not unlawful.
Section 1742 of the BCL (relating to derivative actions) provides that
unless otherwise restricted in its by-laws, a business corporation shall have
the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party, or is threatened to be
made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action by or in the right
of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that
such person is or was a representative of the corporation, or is or was serving
at the request of the corporation as a representative of another domestic or
foreign corporation for profit or not-for-profit, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually
and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or
settlement of the action if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
corporation. Indemnification shall not be made under this section in respect of
any claim, issue or matter as to which such person has been adjudged to be
liable to the corporation unless, and only to the extent that, the court of
common pleas of the judicial district embracing the county in which the
registered office of the corporation is located or the court in which such
action was brought determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the court of
common pleas or such other court shall deem proper.
Section 1743 of the BCL (relating to mandatory indemnification) provides
for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers such that to the extent
that a representative of the business corporation has been successful on the
merits or otherwise in defense of any action or proceeding referred to in
Sections 1741 (relating to third party actions) or 1742 (relating to derivative
actions), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall
be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.
Section 1744 of the BCL (relating to procedure for effecting
indemnification) provides the procedure for effecting indemnification. Under
this section unless ordered by a court, any indemnification under Section 1741
(relating to third party actions) or 1742 (relating to derivative actions) shall
be made by the business corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon
a determination that indemnification of the representative is proper in the
circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set
forth in those sections. The determination shall be made:
II-4
<PAGE> 8
(1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of
directors who were not parties to the action or proceeding;
(2) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, if obtainable and a majority vote
of a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel
in a written opinion; or
(3) by the shareholders.
Section 1745 of the BCL (relating to advancing expenses) provides that
expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in defending any action or
proceeding referred to above may be paid by the business corporation in advance
of the final disposition of the action or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the representative to repay such amount if it is
ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the
corporation as authorized by the BCL or otherwise.
Section 1746 of the BCL (relating to supplementary coverage) provides that
the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by or granted pursuant
to the other sections of the BCL shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may
be entitled under any other by-law, agreement, vote of shareholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's
official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such
office.
Section 1746 of the BCL also provides that indemnification referred to
above shall not be made in any case where the act or failure to act giving rise
to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted
willful misconduct or recklessness.
Section 1746 further declares that indemnification under any by-law,
agreement, vote of shareholders or directors or otherwise, may be granted for
any action taken or any failure to take any action and may be made whether or
not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the person under any other
provision of law except as provided in this section and whether or not the
indemnified liability arises or arose from any threatened, pending or completed
action by or in the right of the corporation. Such indemnification is declared
to be consistent with the public policy of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Section 1747 of the BCL (relating to the power to purchase insurance)
provides that unless otherwise restricted in its by-laws, a business corporation
shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who
is or was a representative of the corporation or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a representative of another domestic or foreign
corporation for profit or not-for-profit, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him
in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify him against that liability under
the provisions of the BCL. Such insurance is declared to be consistent with the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's public policy.
II-5
<PAGE> 9
Section 1750 of the BCL (relating to duration and extent of coverage)
declares that the indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or
granted pursuant to, the BCL shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a representative of the
corporation and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs and personal
representative of that person.
Articles 23 and 24 of the By-laws of the Registrant provide a broad range
of indemnification for its officers and directors. In essence, officers and
directors will be indemnified for any act committed while in the course of their
association with the Registrant provided that the act was in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to the best interest of the
Registrant. Officers and directors will be presumed to be entitled to
indemnification, absent branches of fiduciary duty, lack of good faith or
self-dealing and shall be entitled to indemnification unless their conduct is
determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 (the "1933 Act") 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 Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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 the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by a director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the manner
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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

(a) 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;
(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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) shall not
apply if the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs
is contained in periodic reports filed by the
registrant with the Commission pursuant to Section
13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.
(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,
II-7
<PAGE> 11
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.
(h) 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 Securities Act of 1933 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 Securities Act of
1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
