the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award or a corporation&#146;s board of directors to grant indemnification to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for
liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (&#147;1933 Act&#148;). The Registrant&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation provides that, pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be
liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors to the Registrant and its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not eliminate the fiduciary duty of the directors, and, in appropriate
circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director&#146;s duty of
loyalty to the Registrant for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director and for payment of dividends or approval of stock
repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not affect a director&#146;s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws. The Registrant
has entered into Indemnification Agreements with its officers and directors. The Indemnification Agreements provide the Registrant&#146;s officers and directors with further indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B></B>Item&nbsp;7.<U> Exemption from Registration Claimed</U><B> </B></FONT></P>

any prospectus required by Section&nbsp;10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii)&nbsp;to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which,
individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement and (iii)&nbsp;to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i)&nbsp;and (1)(ii)&nbsp;shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section&nbsp;13 or Section&nbsp;15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement;
(2)&nbsp;That for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3)&nbsp;To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the

otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act, 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P>
