  Item 4. Description of Securities.

  Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
  Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides in relevant part that 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 proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
  administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) 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
  Table of Contents
  request of the corporation as a director, officer,
  employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
  trust or other enterprise, 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 proceeding 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 proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's
  conduct was unlawful.
  In addition, Section 145 provides that 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 or suit by
  or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor 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 the
  corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer,
  employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
  against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in
  connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit 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 except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or
  matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and
  only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit
  was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in
  view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to
  indemnity for such expenses which the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem
  proper.
  Section 145 also provides that to the extent a present or former director or officer of a
  corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
  proceeding referred to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person
  shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred
  by such person in connection therewith.
  Furthermore, Section 145 provides that nothing in the above-described provisions shall be
  deemed exclusive of any other rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which any
  person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors
  or otherwise.
  Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification by the corporation of any person who was or is a
  party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any threatened, pending or
  completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a
  "Proceeding") by reason of the fact that such person, or a person of whom he or she is the legal
  representative, is or was a director or officer of the corporation or is or was serving at the
  request of the corporation's board of directors or its designee as a director or officer of another
  corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect
  to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official
  capacity as a director, officer, trustee, employee or agent or in any other capacity, to the
  fullest extent authorized by law, including but not limited to the Delaware General Corporation
  Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only
  to the extent that such amendment permits the corporation to provide broader indemnification rights
  than said law permitted the corporation to provide prior to such amendment) ("Delaware General
  Corporation Law"), against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorney's fees, judgments,
  fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably
  incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith; provided, however, that the
  corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnity in connection with an action, suit or
  Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such action, suit or Proceeding (or
  part thereof) initiated by such person was authorized by the board of directors of the corporation.
  Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification by the corporation of any employee or agent who is
  not an officer or director of the corporation or a subsidiary, who was, is, or is threatened to be
  made party
  II-2
  Table of Contents
  to a Proceeding, to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware General Corporation Law
  against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorney's fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise
  taxes or penalties
  and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person
  in connection therewith; provided, however, that the corporation shall indemnify any such person
  seeking indemnity in connection with an action, suit or Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by
  such person only if such action, suit or Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person was
  authorized by the board of directors of the corporation.
  Our Bylaws also provide that the rights conferred on any person by the indemnification
  provisions thereof shall not be deemed exclusive of and shall be in addition to any other rights to
  which such person may be entitled as a matter of law or under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
  stockholders or otherwise.
  Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may in
  its certificate of incorporation eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director to the
  corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
  except for liability: for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its
  stockholders; for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
  knowing violation of law; under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (pertaining to
  certain prohibited acts including unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful purchase or redemption
  of the corporation's capital stock); or for any transaction from which the director derived an
  improper personal benefit. Our Second Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision so
  limiting the personal liability of our directors.

  Item 9. Undertakings.
  (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
  II-3
  Table of Contents
  (1) 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 of 1933;
  (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the
  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 the registration
  statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in 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 SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes
  in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set
  forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
  (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
  previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in
  the registration statement;
  provided, however
  , that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) above do 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 13 or
  Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this
  registration statement.
  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 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.
  (3) 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.
  (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes 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 section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the
  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.
  (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
  permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the
  foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC
  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
  II-4

  appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
  indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will
  be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
