Any statement contained in any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for the purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

     Not Applicable.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

     Not Applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     Pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), a corporation may 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 proceedings, 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 at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity, against 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 proceedings if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

     However, the DGCL does not permit indemnification in any derivative action, which is an action by or in the right of the corporation, if such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that a court determines upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the court deems proper. Any such person who successfully defends any proceedings subject to the DGCL's indemnification provisions must be indemnified by the corporation for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith, including attorneys' fees.

     To the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws require the Registrant to indemnify its current and former directors and officers who, in such capacity, are a party or threatened to be made a party to any type of proceedings. In addition, such indemnification is also required for current and former directors, officers, employees and agents of other entities who are serving or have served in such capacities the request of the Registrant. This indemnity is available to such persons against all liability and loss suffered and expenses reasonably incurred by such persons in connection with any proceedings. In certain cases, the indemnified person will be entitled to the advancement of certain expenses. To the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, the Registrant may provide indemnification and expense advancement rights to any employee or agent of the Registrant.

As permitted under the DGCL, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the

2

liability of its directors to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of the directors' fiduciary duties, except to the extent prohibited by the DGCL. In addition, the Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance that, under certain circumstances, would cover alleged violations of the DGCL.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

     Not Applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits.

Item 9. Undertakings. 

     The Registrant hereby undertakes:

     (a) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

          (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

          (ii) 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 thereto) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate

3

offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and

          (iii) 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 the undertakings set forth in paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3 and 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 Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

     (b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment will be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time will be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (c) 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 offering.

     (d) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement 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.

     (e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
