Not applicable. Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel. Not applicable. Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. The Delaware General Corporation Law and the Registrant's Bylaws provide for indemnification of the Registrant's officers and directors for liabilities and expenses that they may incur in such capacities. In general, the Registrant's directors and officers are indemnified with respect to actions taken in good faith and in a manner such person believed to be in the Registrant's best interests, and with respect to any criminal action or proceedings, actions that such person has no reasonable cause to believe were unlawful. Furthermore, the personal liability of the Registrant's directors is limited as provided in the Registrant's certificate of incorporation. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
