      Section 145 of the Delaware
      General Corporation Law (the "Delaware Law"), a corporation may indemnify its
      directors, officers, employees and agents and its former directors, officers,
      employees and agents and those who serve, at the corporation's request, in
      such
      capacities with another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys'
      fees), as well as judgments, fines and settlements in nonderivative lawsuits,
      actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense of any action,
      suit or proceeding in which they or any of them were or are made parties or
      are
      threatened to be made parties by reason of their serving or having served in
      such capacity. The Delaware Law provides, however, that such person must have
      acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in
      (or
      not opposed to) the best interest of the corporation and, in the case of a
      criminal action, such person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his
      or
      her conduct was unlawful. In addition, the Delaware Law does not permit
      indemnification in an action or suit by or in the right of the corporation,
      where such person has been adjudged liable to the corporation, unless, and
      only
      to the extent that, a court determines that such person fairly and reasonably
      is
      entitled to indemnity for costs the court deems proper in light of liability
      adjudication. Indemnity is mandatory to the extent a claim, issue or matter
      has
      been successfully defended.</font></div>

      Bylaws provide for indemnification
      of our directors and officers to the full extent permitted by the Delaware
      Law.
      In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the monetary liability
      of directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware Law.&#160;&#160;We
      have purchased directors' and officers' liability insurance covering certain

      has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
      such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
      therefore, unenforceable.&#160;&#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 of whether such
      indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
      will
      be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</font></div>
