Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
.
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
(Section 145) permits indemnification by a corporation of certain officers, directors, employees and agents. Consistent therewith, Article IX of the Companys By-Laws (Article IX) requires that the Company indemnify all
persons whom it may indemnify pursuant thereto to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145. Article IX also provides that expenses incurred by an officer or director of the Company, in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or
proceeding, may be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such officer or director to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that
he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized. Such expenses incurred by other employees and agents of the Company may also be paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the board of directors, legal counsel or the
Companys stockholders deem appropriate.
In addition, Article 12 of the Companys Amended Certificate of
Incorporation provides that directors of the Company shall not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company or its stockholders for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability as a result of: (i) a breach of the
directors duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) an act related to the unlawful stock repurchase or
payment of a dividend under Section 174 of Delaware General Corporation Law; and (iv) transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Further, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with certain directors and officers which requires the Company to indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise by reason of
his or her status or service as a director.
The Company maintains a policy of insurance under which the directors and
officers of the Company are insured, subject to the limits of the policy, against certain losses arising from claims made against such directors and officers by reason of any acts or omissions covered under such policy in their respective capacities
as directors or officers.

Item 9.
Undertakings
.
|
(a)
|
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
|
(1) To file, during any period in which offers and 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;
- 3 -
(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;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution 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) 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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each filing of the registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plans annual report pursuant to 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 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.
