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 the
prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if,
in the aggregate, the changes
II-2
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 this
registration statement or any material change to the information
in this registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs A(l)(a) and A(l)(b)
above 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 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, each of the post-effective amendments
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of the
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 purpose of determining liability under
the Securities Act to any purchaser:
(a) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the
registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was
deemed part of and included in the registration
statement; and
(b) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to
Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration
statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering
made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for
the purpose of providing the information required by
section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be
part of and included in the registration statement as of the
earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after
effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of
securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As
provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer
and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date
shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration
statement relating to the securities in the registration
statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of
such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement
made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of
the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or
deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement
or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will,
as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such
effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made
in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the
registration statement or made in any such document immediately
prior to such effective date.
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the
registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the
initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned
registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities
of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration
statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell
the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered
or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to
the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such
securities to such purchaser:
(a) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the
undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be
filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(b) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering
prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used
or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
II-3
(c) The portion of any other free writing prospectus
relating to the offering containing material information about
the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on
behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(d) Any other communication that is an offer in the
offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
B. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each filing of its annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plans
annual report pursuant to Section 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 herein, and the offering of
the 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 provisions
described in Item 15 above, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC that
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event
that a claim for indemnification against any liability (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 a 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 indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and will be governed by the final adjudication of the issue.
D. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of
prospectus or any prospectus supplement filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance on Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus or prospectus supplement filed
by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)( 1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to
be part of this registration statement as of the time it was
declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a
form of prospectus or prospectus supplement 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.
