law, the Company&#146;s indemnification of its directors and officers is governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the &#147;DGCL&#148;). The Company&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the &#147;Charter&#148;) provides
indemnification to its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as discussed in greater detail below. The Company has also entered into, or expects to enter into, an indemnification agreement (the &#147;Indemnification
Agreement&#148;) with each of its directors and certain officers (each, an &#147;Indemnitee&#148;) and maintains an insurance policy designed to reimburse the Company for any payments arising from such indemnification. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Section&nbsp;102(b)(7) of the DGCL allows a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its
stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i)&nbsp;for any breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii)&nbsp;for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii)&nbsp;under Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL, or (iv)&nbsp;for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Article VII of the Charter
contains such a provision eliminating the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, Section&nbsp;145 of the DGCL authorizes a court to award, or a corporation&#146;s board of directors to grant, indemnity to
directors and officers under certain circumstances for liabilities incurred in connection with their activities in such capacities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred). Article VIII of the Charter provides for mandatory indemnification of
any current or former directors or officers of the Company or anyone who was or is involved or threatened to be involved as a party or otherwise in any action, suit or proceeding (each a &#147;Covered Person&#148;) for all expenses, liabilities and
losses incurred by reason of his actions in such capacity on behalf of the Company, provided that the Company shall be required to indemnify such Covered Person in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by such
Covered Person only if the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by such Covered Person was authorized by the Company&#146;s board of directors. Article VIII of the Charter also generally requires the mandatory
advancement of expenses and coverage of amounts paid in settlement without the approval of the Company and provides a Covered Person with the right to sue if the Company does not pay upon a written demand within 30 days, which may be extended up to
an additional 30 days. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Finally, the Indemnification Agreements provide, among other things, that the Company will, to the fullest extent
permitted by Delaware law but subject to certain specific procedures, conditions, and limitations, indemnify each Indemnitee against expenses, judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and other losses paid or incurred by the Indemnitee if, by
reason of such Indemnitee&#146;s status as a director or officer of the Company, such Indemnitee was or is a party to, or can reasonably expect to be made a party to or otherwise involved in, any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or
other proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative. The Indemnification Agreements also provide that the Company will indemnify each Indemnitee against expenses paid or incurred by the Indemnitee if, by reason of such
Indemnitee&#146;s status as a director or officer of the Company, such Indemnitee was or is involved </P>

solely as a witness. In addition, the Indemnification Agreements provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by each Indemnitee, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, in connection
with any proceeding covered by the Indemnification Agreements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of Delaware

DGCL; the Charter, which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Registration Statement; and the form of Indemnification Agreement, which is on file with the Commission. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>
