Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
2
Under the New Jersey Business Corporations Act ("NJBCA"), any corporation
in the State of New Jersey has the power to indemnify a corporate agent,
including an officer and director, against his expenses and liabilities in
connection with any proceeding involving the corporate agent if; (a) such
corporate agent acted in good faith and in manner reasonably believed to be in
the best interests of the corporation, and (b) with respect to any criminal
proceeding, such corporate agent had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct
was unlawful. The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or plea of nolo contendre or its equivalent, shall not itself create
a presumption that such corporate agent did not meet the applicable standards of
conduct.
The Company's By-Laws indemnify any person who was, is, or is threatened to
be made a party to a proceeding (as defined below) by reason of the fact that he
or she (i) is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or (ii) while a
director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director, officer, partner, venturer, member, proprietor,
trustee, employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, sole
proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, to the fullest
extent permitted under the NJBCA, as the same exists or may hereafter be
amended. Such right shall be a contract right and as such shall run to the
benefit of any director or officer who is elected and accepts the position of
director or officer of the Corporation or elects to continue to serve as a
director or officer of the Corporation while the provision is in effect. Any
repeal or amendment of this provision shall be prospective only and shall not
limit the rights of any such director or officer or the obligations of the
Corporation in respect of any claim arising from or related to the services of
such director or officer in any of the foregoing capacities prior to any such
repeal or amendment to the provision. Such right shall include the right to be
paid by the Corporation expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in
defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition to the maximum
extent permitted under the NJBCA, as the same exists or may hereafter be
amended. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses hereunder is
not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim has
been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring
suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim, and if
successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall also be entitled to be paid
the expenses of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action
that such indemnification or advancement of costs of defense are not permitted
under the NJBCA, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the
Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of
Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal counsel, or stockholders)
to have made its determination prior to the commencement of such action that
indemnification of, or advancement of costs of defense to, the claimant is
permissible in the circumstances nor an actual determination by the Corporation
(including its Board of Directors or any committee thereof, independent legal
counsel, or stockholders) that such indemnification or advancement is not
permissible shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that such
indemnification or advancement is not permissible. In the event of the death of
any person having a right of indemnification, such right shall inure to the
benefit of his or her heirs, executors, administrators, and personal
representatives. The rights conferred shall not be exclusive of any other right
that any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, bylaw,
resolution of stockholders or directors, agreement, or otherwise. The
Corporation may additionally indemnify any employee or agent of the Corporation
to the fullest extent permitted by law. As used herein, the term "proceeding"
means any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative, or investigative, any appeal in
such an action, suit, or proceeding, and any inquiry or investigation that could
lead to such an action, suit, or proceeding.
The Company's Bylaws also permit the Company to purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any Director, Officer, Agent or employee whether or not
the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against the liability
insured against.

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:
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;
(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 herein, 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 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.
