(the &ldquo;<B>Sarbanes-Oxley Act</B>&rdquo;), the Company and each of its subsidiaries that is a reporting company under the Exchange

(ii)&nbsp;transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles; and (iii)&nbsp;assets are safeguarded from loss or unauthorized use. The Reporting Companies evaluated the design and operation
of their respective disclosure controls and procedures to determine whether they are effective in ensuring that the disclosure of required
information is timely made in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and forms of the Commission. These evaluations were made
under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officers and principal financial officers
of each of the Reporting Companies, within the 45-day period prior to the filing of the most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The
principal executive officers and principal financial officers have concluded, based on their review, that the disclosure controls and
procedures, as defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are effective to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by each of the Reporting Companies in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
within the time periods specified in Commission rules and forms. No significant changes were made to the Reporting Companies&rsquo; internal
controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. The Company is not
aware of any material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting.</P>

case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which
indemnity may be sought pursuant to either Section&nbsp;8(a) or 8(b) hereof, such person (the &ldquo;<B>indemnified
party</B>&rdquo;) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the &ldquo;<B>indemnifying
party</B>&rdquo;) in writing (but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party under this subsection shall not relieve it from
any liability which it otherwise might have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this subsection) and the indemnifying
party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of
such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own
counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i)&nbsp;the
indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii)&nbsp;the named
parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between
them or (iii)&nbsp;the indemnifying party has not retained counsel within a reasonable period of time after the request by the
indemnified party to do so. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any
indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and
expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees
and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives, in the case
of parties indemnified pursuant to Section&nbsp;8(a) hereof, and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to
Section&nbsp;8(b) hereof. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its
written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees
to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened
proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by
such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x)&nbsp;includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y)&nbsp;does not include a statement as to, or an admission
of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.</P>

the extent the indemnification provided for in Section&nbsp;8(a) or 8(b) hereof is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient
in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu
of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i)&nbsp;in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii)&nbsp;if the allocation
provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of each indemnifying party on the one hand and each indemnified
party on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering of such Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts
and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate
public offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of each indemnifying party on the one hand and each indemnified party on
the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or by such
indemnified party and the parties&rsquo; relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The Underwriters&rsquo; respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section&nbsp;8 are several in proportion
to the respective principal amounts of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.</P>

Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section&nbsp;8 were
determined by <I>pro rata </I>allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other
method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section&nbsp;8(d) hereof. The amount
paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section&nbsp;8, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the
total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount
of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section&nbsp;11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The
remedies provided for in this Section&nbsp;8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be
available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.</P>

without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties;
