ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

        None.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

        Section 145(a) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(the "GCL") provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit 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 director, officer, employee or
agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation
as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise,
against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if he 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 cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

        Section 145(b) of the GCL provides that a Delaware corporation may
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 suit by or in the right of
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such
person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses actually
and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted under similar standards to
those set forth above, except that no indemnification may be made in respect to
any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to
be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in
which such action or suit was brought shall determine that despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case,
such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified for such
expenses which the court shall deem proper.

        Section 145 of the GCL further provides that to the extent a director or
officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit
or proceeding referred to in subsection (a) and (b) or in the defense of any
claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith; that
indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and that the
corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director or
officer of the corporation against any liability asserted against such officer
or director and incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of
his or her status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power
to indemnify him or her against such liabilities under Section 145.

        As permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the GCL, the Company's Certificate
of Incorporation provides that a director shall not be liable to the Company or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director. However, such provision does not eliminate or limit the liability of a
director for acts or omissions not in good faith or for breaching his or her
duty of loyalty, engaging in intentional misconduct or knowingly violating the
law, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase which was illegal, or
obtaining an improper personal benefit. A provision of this type has no effect
on the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunction or rescission, for
breach of fiduciary duty. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation requires
that directors and officers be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by
Delaware law.

        The Company has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its
directors and officers. These indemnity agreements require that the Company pay
on behalf of each director and officer party thereto any amount that he or she
is or becomes legally obligated to pay because of any claim or claims made
against him or her because of any act or omission or neglect or breach of duty
including any actual or alleged error or misstatement or misleading statement,
which he or she commits or suffers while acting in his or her capacity as a
director and/or officer of the Company and solely because of his or her being a
director and/or officer. Under the GCL, absent such


                                       3


<PAGE>   4

an indemnity agreement, indemnification of a director or officer is
discretionary rather than mandatory (except in the case of a proceeding in which
a director or officer is successful on the merits). Consistent with the
Company's Bylaw provision on the subject, the indemnity agreements require the
Company to make prompt payment of defense and investigation costs and expenses
at the request of the director or officer in advance of indemnification,
provided that the recipient undertakes to repay the amounts if it is ultimately
determined that he or she is not entitled to indemnification for such expense
and provided further that such advance shall not be made if it is determined
that the director or officer acted in bad faith or deliberately breached his or
her duty to the Company or its stockholders and, as a result, it is more likely
than not that it will ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to
indemnification under the terms of the indemnity agreement. The indemnity
agreements make the advance of litigation expenses mandatory absent a special
determination to the contrary, whereas under the GCL absent such an indemnity
agreement, such advance would be discretionary. Under the indemnity agreement,
the Company would not be required to pay or reimburse the director or officer
for his or her expenses in seeking indemnification recovery against the Company.
By the terms of the indemnity agreement, its benefits are not available if the
director or officer has other indemnification or insurance coverage for the
subject claim or, with respect to the matters giving rise to the claim, (i)
received a personal benefit, (ii) violated Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or
analogous provisions of law, or (iii) committed certain acts of dishonesty.
Absent the indemnity agreement, indemnification that might be made available to
directors and officers could be changed by amendments to the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws.

        The Company has a policy of directors' liability insurance which insures
the directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of
a judgment under certain circumstances.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.

        (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;

                     (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) 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
Commission 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 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 Securities Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in this 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.

<PAGE>   6

         (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities 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 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 of whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by a final
adjudication of such issue.
