(1)  Estimated in part pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act of 1933,
     as amended (the "Securities Act"), and in part pursuant to Rule 457(c)
     under the Securities Act. With respect to 2,692,660 shares subject to
     outstanding options to purchase Common Stock under the Plan, the Proposed
     Maximum Offering Price Per Share is equal to the exercise price of $24.53
     per share pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act. With respect to
     307,340 shares of Common Stock available for future grant under the Plan,
     the estimated Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share was estimated
     pursuant to Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act whereby the per share
     price is the average between the high and low price reported on the Nasdaq
     National Market on July 19, 2000, which average was $22.57. The Proposed
     Maximum Offering Price Per Share represents a weighted average of the
     foregoing estimates calculated in accordance with Rules 457(c) and 457(h)
     under the Securities Act.

(2)  Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(h) solely for the purpose of
     calculating the registration fee, based on the average of the high and low
     prices per share of the Common Stock as reported on The Nasdaq National
     Market on July 19, 2000.

                 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

below and any future filings made with the Commission under Section 13a, 13(c),
14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 until our offering is
completed:

        (1) Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999,
filed with the commission on March 30, 2000; and

        (2) Our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,
2000, filed with the Commission on May 15, 2000.

        You may request a copy of these filings, at no cost, by writing or

ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

        The Registrant's Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation limits the
liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware
law provides that directors of a corporation will not


                                      -2-
<PAGE>   3

be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties
as directors, except for liability (i) for any breach of their duty of loyalty
to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law,
(iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or
redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

        The Registrant's Restated Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall
indemnify its directors and officers and may indemnify its employees and other
agents to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Registrant believes that
indemnification under its Restated Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross
negligence on the part of indemnified parties. The Registrant's Restated Bylaws
also permit the Registrant to secure insurance on behalf of any officer,
director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her
actions in such capacity, regardless of whether the Registrant would have the
power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the General
Corporation Law of Delaware. The Registrant currently has secured such insurance
on behalf of its officers and directors.

        The Registrant has entered into agreements to indemnify its directors
and officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in the Registrant's
Bylaws. Subject to certain conditions, these agreements, among other things,
indemnify the Registrant's directors and officers for certain expenses
(including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by
any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the
right of the Registrant, arising out of such person's services as a director or
officer of the Registrant, any subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company
or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the
Registrant.

        Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court
to award, or a corporation's Board of Directors to grant indemnity to directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended. The
Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws provide for
indemnification of its officers, directors, employees and other agents to the
maximum extent permitted by the Delaware Law.

ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

        Not applicable.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.

        The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:


                                      -3-
<PAGE>   4


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

        (4)    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.

        (4)    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;

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

        (4)    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.

        (4)    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
               of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as
               amended, 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.

(4)     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 Securities and
        Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as
        expressed in the Exchange 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
        Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
        issue.
