Item 9.  Undertakings.

(a)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or post-effective amendment
         to this registration sales are being made, a statement:

            (i)     To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of
                    the Securities Act;

            (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;

                                     II-3
<PAGE>

             provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
             apply if the information required to be included in a post-
             effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
             reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant
             pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that
             are incorporated by reference 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 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, each filing of
             the Registrant'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 liability arising under the
             Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
             controlling person of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
             provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
             the opinion of the SEC 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, 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 and will be governed by the final adjudication
             of such issue.
