Item 4.  Description of Securities.

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

         Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

         The Registrant is a Delaware corporation. Article Sixteen of the
Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the
officers and directors of the Registrant shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Registrant to the fullest extent authorized by the Delaware General
Corporation Law, as amended from time to time (the "GCL") (but in the case of
any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the
Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the
Corporation to provide prior to such amendment). Section 145 of the GCL provides
that a Delaware corporation has the power to indemnify officers and directors in
certain circumstances.

         Subsection (a) of Section 145 of the GCL empowers a corporation to
indemnify any director or officer, or former director or officer, 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 in the right of the corporation), against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit
or proceeding provided such director or officer acted in good faith and in a
manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, provided
that such director or officer has no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

         Subsection (b) of Section 145 empowers a corporation to indemnify any
director or officer, or former director or officer, 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 acted in any of the capacities set forth
above against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably

                                       2


incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit;
provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation. However, no indemnification may be made in respect of any
obligation, issue or matter as to which such director or officer has been
adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the
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, the director or officer is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery
or such other court shall deem proper.

         Section 145 further provides that (i) to the extent that a director or
officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 145
or in the defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection therewith. Article Sixteen of the Registrant's Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the indemnification provided
for thereunder shall be a contract right which shall include the right to be
paid expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition subject to any undertakings required under the GCL. Subsection (e)
of Section 145 requires an undertaking to repay any such amount advanced if the
director or officer receiving such amount is ultimately determined not to be
entitled to indemnification.

         Article Sixteen limits indemnification of any officer or director with
respect to actions initiated by such person to those actions where such
indemnification is approved by the Registrant's Board of Directors.

         Indemnification provided for by Section 145 and Article Sixteen is not
to be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be
entitled. Both Section 145 and Article Sixteen permit the Registrant to maintain
insurance on behalf of a director or officer against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his
status as such, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify
him against such liabilities under Section 145.

         Article Sixteen provides that any director or officer claiming rights
to indemnification thereunder may bring suit if such indemnification is not paid
within thirty days. Article Sixteen further provides that the Registrant bears
the burden of proving that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct
required for indemnification under the GCL if the Registrant elects to defend
any such action. Article Fifteen of the Registrant's Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted
under the GCL, a director of the Registrant shall not be personally liable to
the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

               Not applicable.

                                       3


Item 8.  Exhibits.

         Unless otherwise indicated below as being incorporated by reference to
another filing of the Registrant with the Commission, each of the following
exhibits is filed herewith:

4.1        Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant,
           as in effect as of November 31, 2000 (filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the
           Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 10/A (Amendment No. 1)
           and incorporated herein by reference)

4.2        Bylaws of the Registrant, as amended, effective November 17, 2000
           (filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the Registrant's Registration Statement on

5          In lieu of an opinion of counsel or Internal Revenue Service ("IRS")
           determination letter on compliance with ERISA or Section 401 of the
           Internal Revenue Code, the Registrant hereby undertakes that the
           Registrant will submit or has submitted the Plan and any amendment
           thereto to the IRS in a timely manner and has made or will make all
           changes required by the IRS to qualify the Plan

23.1       Consent of Independent Auditors

24         Powers of Attorney (included on Signature Page)

Item 9.  Undertakings.

(1)      The Registrant and the Plan hereby undertake:

         (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 of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
                    Act");

               (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
                    and 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 offering price set forth in the
                    "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
                    registration statement;

                                       4


               (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 (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) 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.

         (b)   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.

         (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.

(2)      The Registrant and Plan hereby undertake 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 each filing of the 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.

(3)      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant or the Plan pursuant to the provisions discussed in Item 6 of the
Registration Statement, 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.
