PART II

INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

 

Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference.

The following documents are incorporated by reference herein:

 

  (a) The Registrant’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006;

 

  (b) The Registrant’s current reports on Form 8-K filed on January 4, 2007, January 12, 2007 and February 20, 2007;

 

  (c) All other reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), since December 31, 2006; and

 

  (d) The description of Registrant’s common stock contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-49568) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 8, 2000, including any amendment filed for the purpose of updating such description.

All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) 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 hereby have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the respective dates of filing of such documents (such documents, and the documents enumerated above, being hereinafter referred to as “Incorporated Documents”).

Any statement contained in an Incorporated Document shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed Incorporated Document modifies or supersedes such statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

Not applicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, the Registrant is required, subject to some limitations and to the fullest extent authorized by law, to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and certain settlements, actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which they are a party or are threatened to be made a party or are otherwise involved by reason of the fact that they are a director or officer of the Registrant or were serving at the Registrant’s request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity so long as they acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, also provides that no director will be personally liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except as otherwise provided under Delaware law.

Section 102 of the DGCL permits a Delaware corporation to include in its certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting a director’s liability to a corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Section 102 of the DGCL provides, however, that liability for breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, the unlawful purchase or redemption of stock or unlawful payment of dividends or any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit cannot be eliminated or limited in this manner. The Registrant’s certificate of incorporation, as amended, includes a provision that eliminates, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, director liability for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty.

In addition, the Registrant has purchased directors and officers liability insurance. Some of the Registrant’s directors also are indemnified by third parties with which they are affiliated against liabilities that such directors may incur in their capacities as directors of the Registrant.

 

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits.

The Exhibits accompanying this Registration Statement are listed on the accompanying Exhibit Index.

 

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:

(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 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;

(iii) 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 (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 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2) 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.

(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 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 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this 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

 

3

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.
