Item 15. Indemnification of Directors
and Officers
Section 145 of the DGCL provides for
the indemnification of officers and directors of corporations in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify our officers and directors
under certain circumstances from liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Section
102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall
not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director,
except for liability (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) in respect of
certain unlawful dividend payments or stock redemptions or repurchases, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived
an improper personal benefit.
As permitted by the DGCL, our Certificate
of Incorporation provides that the personal liability of each member of our Board or our stockholders for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duty as a director is eliminated. The effect of this provision in the Certificate of Incorporation is to eliminate
our rights and the rights of our stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on our behalf) to recover monetary
damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duty as a director thereof (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly
negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i)-(iv), inclusive, above. Specifically, Article TENTH of the
Certificate of Incorporation provides as follows:
TENTH: No director of the corporation
shall be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director
(i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not
in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) for any transaction from which the director
derived an improper personal benefit, or (iv) under Section 174 of the GCL. This Article shall eliminate or limit the liability
of a director for any act or omission occurring prior to the time this Article became effective.
In addition, Article 7 of our Bylaws
provides, in summary, that we are required to indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any person made or threatened
to be made a party or involved in a lawsuit action or proceeding by reason that such person is or was our officer, director, employee,
or agent. Indemnification is against all liability and loss suffered and expenses reasonably incurred to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law. Unless required by law, no such indemnification is required by us of any person initiating such suit, action,
or proceeding without Board authorization. Expenses are payable in advance if the indemnified party agrees to repay the amount
if he or she is ultimately found to not be entitled to indemnification.
The Bylaws further provide that the
indemnification rights provided for in the Bylaws shall not be deemed exclusive of any rights to the indemnified party under any
bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
We provide indemnity insurance pursuant
to which officers and directors are indemnified or insured against liability or loss under certain circumstances, which may include
liability or related loss under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.
Item 16. Exhibits
The exhibits to this registration statement
are listed in the Exhibit Index to this registration statement, which Exhibit Index is hereby incorporated by reference.
Item 17. Undertakings
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 Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 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 Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes
that:
(i)
|
|
the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and
|
(ii)
|
|
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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
bone fide
offering thereof.
|

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the
requirements for filing on Form S-1 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
