Item 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

         Articles 254 and 280 of the Commercial Code of Japan (the "Commercial
Code") make the provisions of Section 10, Chapter 2, Book III of the Civil Code
of Japan applicable to the relationship between the Registrant and its directors
and statutory auditors, respectively.  Section 10, among other things, provides
in effect that:

         (1) Any director or statutory auditor of a company may demand advance
payment of expenses which are considered necessary for the management of the
affairs of such company entrusted to him;

         (2) If a director or a statutory auditor of a company has defrayed any
expenses which are considered necessary for the management of the affairs of
such company entrusted to him, he may demand reimbursement therefor and interest
thereon after the date of payment from the company;

                                     II-1


         (3) If a director or a statutory auditor has assumed an obligation
necessary for the management of the affairs entrusted to him, he may require the
company to perform it in his place or, if it is not due, to furnish adequate
security; and

         (4) If a director or a statutory auditor, without any fault on his
part, sustains damage through the management of the affairs entrusted to him, he
may demand compensation therefor from the company.

The Registrant has entered into agreements with its directors and certain of its
executive officers that require the Registrant to indemnify such persons against
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other
amounts actually and reasonably incurred (including expenses of a derivative
action) in connection with any proceeding, whether actual or threatened, to
which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person
is or was a director or officer of the Registrant or any of its affiliated
enterprises, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner such
person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
Registrant.  Indemnification may not be available for certain violations of U.S.
federal securities law or actions brought under Japanese law and may be
determined by the United States or Japanese courts to be unenforceable in such
circumstances.

Item 9.  UNDERTAKINGS

         (1) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

         (a) 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

                                     II-2


                  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 20 percent
                  change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
                  the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
                  registration statement;

          (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 paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if
          --------  -------
          the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and
          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.

     (b)  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.

     (c)  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.

     (2)  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
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 the
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.

     (3)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, 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 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.

                                     II-3
