ITEM 15.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

     Section 722 of the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York
empowers a New York corporation to indemnify any person made, or threatened to
be made, a party to any action or proceeding (other than an action by or in the
right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor), whether civil or
criminal, including an action by or in the right of any other corporation of any
type or kind, domestic or foreign, or any partnership, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise, which any director or officer of the
corporation served in any capacity at the request of the corporation, by reason
of the fact that such person, such person's testator or such person's intestate
is or was a director or officer of the corporation, or was serving at the
request of the corporation as a director or officer of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise in
any capacity, against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and
reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees actually and necessarily incurred
as a result of such action or proceeding or any appeal therein, if such person
acted in good faith, for a purpose which such person reasonably believed to be
in, or, in the case of services for any other corporation or other enterprise,
not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such
person's conduct was unlawful.

     The termination of any action or proceeding by judgment, settlement,
conviction, or upon plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, does not, of
itself, create a presumption that such person did not act in good faith, for a
purpose which such person reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of
services for any other corporation or other enterprise not opposed to, the best
interests of the corporation, or had reasonable cause to believe that such
person's conduct was unlawful.

     In the case of an action by or in the right of the corporation, Section 722
empowers a corporation to indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a
party to any action in any of the capacities set forth above against amounts
paid in settlement and reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually
and necessarily incurred by such person in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or an appeal therein, if such person acted in good
faith, for a purpose which such person reasonably believed to be in, or, in the
case of services for any other corporation or other enterprise, not opposed to,
the best interests of the corporation, except that indemnification is not
permitted in respect of

     (1) a threatened action or pending action which is settled or
         otherwise disposed of or

     (2) any claim, issue, or matter as to which such person is adjudged to be
         liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court
         in which such action was brought, or if no action was brought, any
         court of competent jurisdiction, determines upon application that, in
         view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and
         reasonably entitled to indemnity for such portion of the settlement
         amount and expenses as the court deems proper.

     Section 723 provides that a New York corporation is required to indemnify a
person who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of an
action described in Section 722.

     Section 721 provides that indemnification provided for by Section 722 shall
not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may
be entitled, whether contained in the certificate of incorporation or the
by-laws or, when authorized by such certificate of incorporation or by-laws,

     (a) a resolution of shareholders,

     (b) a resolution of directors, or

     (c) an agreement providing for such indemnification, provided that no
         indemnification may be made to or on behalf of any director or officer
         if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director or
         officer establishes that such person's acts were committed in bad faith
         or were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were
         material to the cause of action so adjudicated.

     Andrea's Certificate of Incorporation provides that the personal liability
of the directors of Andrea is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by
Section 402(b) of the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York. In
addition, the By-Laws of Andrea provide in substance that, to the fullest extent
permitted by New York law, each director and officer shall be indemnified by
Andrea against reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, and any
liabilities which such officer may incur in connection with any action to which
such officer may be made a party by reason of being or having been a director or
officer of Andrea. The indemnification provided by Andrea's By-Laws is not
deemed exclusive of or in any way to limit any other rights which any person
seeking indemnification may be entitled.

ITEM 17. 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:

                (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 Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), if, in
                       the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent
                       no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate
                       offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
                       Registration Fee" table in the effective registration
                       statement;

                                      II-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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(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 with or furnished to the
                       Securities and Exchange 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 this 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 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
        Securities and Exchange Commission 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 appropriate jurisdiction the
        question of 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.
