All

of
the Exchange Act after the date of this registration statement and prior to
the
filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered

4. Description of Securities.

5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item
6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The
Company’s articles of incorporation eliminate the personal liability of
directors and officers to the Company and its stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer. Under the Company’s
articles of incorporation, the Company also will indemnify and pay the expenses
of any person who is or was made, or threatened to be made, a party to an action
or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Company or is or was serving at the request or with the prior
approval of the Company as a director or officer of another corporation, against
any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any
capacity arising out of that person's status as such. Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the company pursuant to the foregoing,
or
otherwise, we have been advised that the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. If a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred
or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with any securities being
registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.

is
not subject to the requirements of ERISA, and no action will be taken to qualify

Item
9. Undertakings.
(a)
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(a)
To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(b)
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
(c)
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 paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) 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 by the registrant pursuant to Section 13
or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement.
(2) That,
for
the purpose of determining 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 the 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 Exchange Act (and,
where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) 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
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 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.
