Item 5.     Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item 6.     Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or DGCL, provides that a Delaware corporation has the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify any person who is or was a party or is threated 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 by or in right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in any such action, suit, or proceeding.

Section 145 of the DGCL also provides that a Delaware corporation has the power, under specified circumstances, to indemnify any person who is or was 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 the person is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another entity against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit.

In addition, the Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers.

Section 35 of the Registrant’s By-laws generally provides for mandatory indemnification of each person who is or was or is threatened to be made a witness in or a party to or involved in any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action, suit, arbitration, alternative dispute resolution mechanism, administrative hearing, or other proceeding because:

(i)the person is or was an officer or director of the Registrant; or

(ii)to the extent permitted by the DGCL, the person is an employee or agent of the Registrant who is not an officer or director of the Registrant, and the Board of Directors has adopted a resolution stating that such person shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 35 of the Registrant’s By-laws; or

(iii)the person described in (i) or (ii) above is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise,

to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as it existed at the time the respective indemnification provisions of the Registrant’s By-laws were adopted or as it may be amended. Section 145 of the DGCL and Section 35 of the Registrant’s By-laws expressly provide that they are not the exclusive methods of indemnification.

Section 35 of the Registrant’s By-laws provides that the Registrant may maintain insurance, at its own expense, to protect itself and any person, including any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant or other entity, against any expense, liability, or loss reasonably incurred or suffered. This insurance coverage may be maintained regardless of whether the Registrant would have the power to indemnify the person against the expense, liability, or loss under the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a certificate of incorporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer. However, that provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability:

(i)for any breach of the director or officer’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;

(ii)of a director or officer for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

(iii)of a director under Section 174 of the DGCL, relating to liability for unlawful acquisitions or redemptions of, or payment of dividends on, capital stock;

(iv)for any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit; or

(v)of an officer in any action by or in the right of the corporation.

The Fifteenth Article of the Registrant’s restated certificate of incorporation contains this type of provision.

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;

(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 this 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 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and

(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 clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission 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 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; and

(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 that is incorporated by reference into 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 indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the 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.
