<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;102 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware allows a corporation to limit
directors&#146; personal liability to the corporation or its stockholders from monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director, with certain exceptions. Article&nbsp;Fourteenth of the
Registrant&#146;s Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides such limitation to the fullest extent
permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware permits a corporation, subject to the
standards set forth therein, to indemnify any person in connection with any action suit or
proceeding brought or threatened by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director,
officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving as such with respect to another
entity at the request of the corporation. Article&nbsp;Fifth of the Registrant&#146;s Restated Certificate of
Incorporation and Article&nbsp;VI of the Registrant&#146;s By-Laws provide for full indemnification of its
directors and officers to the extent permitted by Section&nbsp;145.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant maintains insurance policies indemnifying directors and officers against
certain liabilities for actions taken in their capacities as such. Subject to the limits,
retentions, exceptions and other terms and conditions of the policy, the Registrant&#146;s directors and
officers are insured against liability for any actual or alleged error, misstatement, misleading
statement, act or omission in the discharge of their respective responsibilities to the Registrant
solely in their capacity as directors and officers of the Registrant.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933
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 will be governed against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
