<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Section&nbsp;145
of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the &#147;DGCL&#148;) grants a
Delaware corporation broad power to indemnify its officers, directors,
employees and agents, in connection with actual or threatened actions, suits or
proceedings, provided that such officer, director, employee or agent acted in
good faith and in a manner such officer, director, employee or agent reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the corporation&#146;s best interests, and for
criminal proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was
unlawful.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Section&nbsp;102
of the DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of
incorporation a provision eliminating a director&#146;s liability to a corporation
or its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty, but
the statute also provides that liability for breaches of the duty of loyalty,
acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of the law, any violation of Section&nbsp;174 of the DGCL and the
receipt of improper personal benefits cannot be eliminated or limited in this
manner.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As
permitted by the above provisions of the DGCL, the Registrant&#146;s Restated
Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Registrant shall indemnify and
hold harmless any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made
a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a &#147;Proceeding&#148;),
by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the
Registrant or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an
employee benefit plan (hereinafter an &#147;Indemnitee&#148;), whether the basis of such
Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer,
employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director,
officer, employee or agent, against all expense, liability and loss (including
attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts
paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in
connection therewith.&#160; Such
indemnification shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the
Indemnitee&#146;s heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that,
except as provided below with respect to Proceedings to enforce rights to
indemnification, the Registrant shall indemnify any such Indemnitee in
connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee
only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of
Directors of the Registrant.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
right to indemnification conferred in the preceding paragraph includes the
right to be paid by the Registrant the expenses incurred in defending any
Proceeding for which such right to indemnification is applicable in advance of
its final disposition (hereinafter an &#147;Advancement of Expenses&#148;); provided,
however, that, if the DGCL requires, an Advancement of Expenses incurred by an
Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any
other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Indemnitee,
including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be
made only upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of
such Indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to
appeal that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The
rights to indemnification and to the Advancement of Expenses conferred in the
preceding two paragraphs are contract rights.&#160;
If a claim under either of the preceding paragraphs is not paid in full
by the Registrant within sixty days after a written claim has been received by
the Registrant, except in the case of a claim for an Advancement of Expenses,
in which case the applicable period shall be twenty days, the Indemnitee may at
any time thereafter bring suit against the Registrant to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim.&#160; If successful in
whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Registrant to
recover an Advancement of Expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the
Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting or
defending such suit.&#160; In (i)&nbsp;any
suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder
(but not in a suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to an
Advancement of Expenses) it shall be a defense that, </font></p>

(ii)&nbsp;in any suit by the Registrant to recover an Advancement of Expenses
pursuant to the terms of an undertaking the Registrant shall be entitled to
recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that, the Indemnitee has not
met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL.&#160; Neither the failure of the Registrant
(including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders)
to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that
indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the
Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL,
nor an actual determination by the Registrant (including its Board of
Directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Indemnitee
has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption
that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the
case of such a suit brought by the Indemnitee, be a defense to such suit.&#160; In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to
enforce a right to indemnification or to an Advancement of Expenses hereunder,
or by the Registrant to recover an Advancement of Expenses pursuant to the
terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not
entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, shall be on the
Registrant.</font></p>

in compliance with Section&nbsp;102 of the DGCL, no director of the Registrant shall
be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages
for 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 Registrant 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.&#160; Any repeal
or modification of this paragraph by the stockholders of the Registrant shall
be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any right or protection of
a director of the Registrant existing at the time of such repeal or
modification.</font></p>

provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion

the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.&#160; 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 by the
final adjudication of such issue.</font></p>
