Item 4. Description of Securities

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

           Our certificate of incorporation provides that the liability of our directors to us or any of our stockholders for monetary damages arising from acts or omissions occurring in their capacity as directors shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of Delaware or any other applicable law. This limitation does not apply with respect to any action in which our directors would be liable under Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware nor does it apply with respect to any liability in which a director:

 

-

breached his duty of loyalty;

-

did not act in good faith or, in failing to act, did not act in good faith;

-

acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or, in failing to
act, shall have acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; or

-

derived an improper personal benefit.

 

     Our certificate of incorporation provides that we shall indemnify our directors, officers and employees and former directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by laws of Delaware or any other applicable law. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, we have the power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (other than an action which we bring or that is brought in our behalf) by reason of the fact that he is or was our director, officer, employee, or agent, against any and all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding. The power to indemnify applies only if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest, or not opposed to our best interest, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.

 

     The power to indemnify applies to actions which we bring or which are brought on our behalf as well, but only to the extent of defense and settlement expenses and not to any satisfaction of a judgment or settlement of the claim itself. Further, we will not provide indemnification in the event of any adjudication of negligence or misconduct unless a court of competent jurisdiction, in its discretion, believes that in light of all the circumstances indemnification should apply.

 

     The indemnification authorized under the Delaware statute is not exclusive of any other rights to which any such officer or director may be entitled under any bylaws, agreements, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. We currently have directors' and officers' liability insurance covering claims against our directors and officers in their official capacities.

Item 9. Undertakings

 

        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;

 

 

 

     (b)  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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;

 

 

 

     (c)  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) and (1)(b) 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 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.

 

        (4)  That, for the 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 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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.

 

        (5)  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.

      Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Company certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Dallas, State of Texas, on the 3rd day of January 2002.
