EXPLANATORY NOTE
The Company previously filed the 2011 Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC” or the “Commission”) to register the offer of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the 2005 Plan.
On March 28, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2018 Plan. The Company’s stockholders approved the 2018 Plan at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on June 13, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Meeting”). Upon stockholder approval of the 2018 Plan, the Company’s authority to grant new awards under the 2005 Plan terminated, and a total of 2,343,895 shares of Common Stock that had been available for new award grants under the 2005 Plan immediately prior to the 2018 Annual Meeting became available for award grants under the 2018 Plan. As provided in the 2018 Plan, any shares of the Company’s common stock subject to awards outstanding under the 2005 Plan on June 13, 2018 that expire, are cancelled or otherwise terminate without such shares being issued under the 2005 Plan after such date will be available for award grant purposes under the 2018 Plan. As of the date of the 2018 Annual Meeting, a total of 6,959,306 shares were subject to awards then outstanding under the 2005 Plan. The number of shares available for new award grants under the 2005 Plan immediately prior to the 2018 Annual Meeting and the number of shares subject to awards then outstanding under the 2005 Plan as of the date of the 2018 Annual Meeting that expire, are cancelled or otherwise terminate without such shares being issued under the 2005 Plan are referred to herein as the “Transferred Shares.”
The Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-8 pursuant to SEC Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 126.43 to amend the 2011 Form S-8 to register the offer of the Transferred Shares under the 2018 Plan (as such shares would no longer be issuable under the 2005 Plan). Concurrently herewith, the Company is filing post-effective amendments to other Form S-8 registration statements that were originally filed to register shares under the 2005 Plan so as to register all of the Transferred Shares that may become available for issuance pursuant to the 2018 Plan.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers |
Section 145(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that a Delaware corporation may 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, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she 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 corporation or enterprise, against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is 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 such person acted in any of the capacities set forth above, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he or she acted under similar standards, except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that despite the adjudication of liability, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to be indemnified for such expenses which the court shall deem proper.
Section 145 further provides that (i) to the extent a director or officer of a corporation has been successful in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) or in the defense of any claim, issue, or matter therein, he or she shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection therewith; (ii) indemnification provided for by Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the indemnified party may be entitled; and (iii) the corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of a director or officer of the corporation against any liability asserted against him or her or incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liabilities under Section 145.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL provides that a corporation in its original certificate of incorporation or an amendment thereto validly approved by stockholders may eliminate or limit personal liability of members of its board of directors or governing body for breach of a director’s fiduciary duty. No such provision, however, may eliminate or limit the liability of a director for breaching his or her duty of loyalty, failing to act in good faith, engaging in intentional misconduct or knowingly violating a law, paying a dividend or approving a stock repurchase which was illegal, or obtaining an improper personal benefit. A provision of this type has no effect on the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunction or rescission, for breach of fiduciary duty. The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation contains such a provision.
The Registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify officers, directors, employees and agents of the Registrant, to the full extent permitted by and in the manner permissible under the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, the By-Laws permit the Board of Directors to authorize the Registrant to purchase and maintain insurance against any liability asserted against any director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant arising out of his or her capacity as such.
The Registrant has entered into Indemnification Agreements with each of its officers and directors, pursuant to which the Registrant has agreed to indemnify and advance expenses to such officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
The Registrant has obtained an insurance policy providing coverage for certain liabilities of its officers and directors.

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 this 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;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 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.
(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 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s 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 therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h) 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 6 above, 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.

We consent to your filing this opinion as an exhibit to the Form S-8 Amendment.
