INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("Delaware GCU")
empowers a corporation, subject to certain limitations, to indemnify its
directors and officers against expenses (including attorneys' fees, judgments,
fines and certain settlements) actually and reasonably incurred by them in
connection with any suit or proceeding to which they are a party so long as they
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to a criminal action
or proceeding, so long as they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct
to have been unlawful. The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws
provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and such of its
officers, employees and agents as the Board of Directors may determine from time
to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware GCL.
Section 102 of the Delaware GCL permits a Delaware corporation to include in
its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting a
director's liability to a corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages
for breaches of fiduciary duty. The enabling statute provides, however, that
liability for breaches of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good
faith or involving intentional misconduct, or knowing violation of the law, and
the unlawful purchase or redemption of stock or payment of unlawful dividends or
the receipt of improper personal benefits cannot be eliminated or limited in
this manner. The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws include a
provision which eliminates, to the fullest extent permitted, director liability
for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty.

ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, 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 Securities
Act and win be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule
424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be
part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared
effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, each post-effective amendment that contains a
form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein and this offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) For the purpose 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 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.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for
information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to
Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of
such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or
other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents
filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the
date of responding to the request.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a
post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the
company being acquired therein, that was not the subject of and included in the
registration statement when it became effective.
