Limitation on Directors' Liability  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Delaware has adopted a law that allows corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their
stockholders for monetary damages for breach of directors' fiduciary duty of care. The duty of care requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors must exercise an informed
business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Absent the limitations allowed by the law, directors are accountable to corporations and their stockholders for
monetary damages for acts of gross negligence. Although Delaware law does not change directors' duty of care, it allows corporations to limit available relief to equitable remedies such as injunction
or rescission. Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by this law. Specifically, our directors will not be personally liable for
monetary damages for any breach of their fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability:</FONT></P>

Sale Through Underwriters or Dealers  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If we use underwriters in the sale of securities, the underwriters will acquire the securities for their own account. The underwriters
may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or
at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by
one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to conditions, and
the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or
concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During
and after an offering through underwriters, the underwriters may purchase and sell the securities in the open market. These transactions may include overallotment and stabilizing
transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions created in connection with the offering. The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid, whereby selling concessions allowed to syndicate
members or other broker-dealers for the offered securities sold for their account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if such offered securities are repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or
covering transactions. These activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the offered securities, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the
open market. If commenced, these activities may be discontinued at any time. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If
we use dealers in the sale of securities, we will sell the securities to them as principals. They may then resell those securities to the public at varying prices determined by the
dealers at the time of resale. The dealers participating in any sale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those
securities. We will include in the prospectus supplement the names of the dealers and the terms of the transaction. </FONT></P>

Direct Sales and Sales Through Agents  </B></FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We may sell the securities directly. In that event, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We may also sell the securities
through agents we designate from time to time. In the prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities, and we will describe any commissions payable by us
to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a Delaware corporation to 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 such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as
a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines
and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that 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 reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. A
Delaware corporation may indemnify directors, officers, employees and others in an action by or in the right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no indemnification is permitted
without judicial approval if the person to be indemnified has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where a director or officer is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action referred to above or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must indemnify such director or officer against the expenses (including attorneys' fees) which he or she
actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. </FONT></P>

<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Article&nbsp;XXXVIII
of the Company's bylaws provides for indemnification of the directors and officers of the Company to the full extent permitted by law, as now in effect or later
amended. Article&nbsp;XXXVIII of the bylaws provides that expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending a suit or other similar proceeding shall be paid by the Company upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. </FONT></P>

the Company's certificate of incorporation (the "Charter") contains a provision that limits the liability of the Company's directors to the fullest extent permitted by the

result, stockholders may be unable to recover monetary damages against directors for negligent or grossly negligent acts or omissions in violation of their duty of care. The provision does not
change the liability of a director for breach of his duty of loyalty to the Company or to stockholders, for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing

addition to its Charter and bylaw provisions, the Company has taken such other steps as are reasonably necessary to effect its indemnification policy. Included among such other steps
is liability insurance provided by the Company for its directors and officers for certain losses arising from claims or charges made against them in their capacities as directors or officers of the
Company. The Company has also entered into indemnity agreements with individual officers. These agreements generally provide such officers with a contractual right to indemnification to the full
extent provided by applicable law and the bylaws of the Company as in effect at the respective dates of such agreements. </FONT></P>


<P style="font-family:times;"><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The
Company has placed in effect insurance which purports (a)&nbsp;to insure it against certain costs of indemnification which may be incurred by it pursuant to the aforementioned
bylaw provision or otherwise and (b)&nbsp;to insure the officers and directors of the Company and of specified subsidiaries against certain liabilities incurred by them in the discharge of their
functions as officers and directors except for liabilities arising from their own malfeasance. </FONT></P>

which may be entered into with underwriters, dealers and agents who participate in the distribution of securities of the Company may contain provisions relating to the
