In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and of the

Securities Act and one or more amendments to the registration statement and
prospectus included therein. The Company will file with the SEC either: (i)

such registration statement, a final prospectus in accordance with Rule 424(b)
of the Rules and Regulations, or (ii) after effectiveness of such registration
statement, a final prospectus in accordance with Rules 430A and 424(b) of the
Rules and Regulations. Any such preliminary prospectus and any prospectus
included in the registration statement at the time it becomes effective that

referred to herein as a "preliminary prospectus"; such registration statement,
as it may have been amended at the time when it becomes effective, including
financial statements, exhibits and the information, if any, deemed to be a part
of such registration statement by virtue of Rule 430A of the Rules and
Regulations, is referred to herein as the "Registration Statement"; and such
final form of prospectus, in the form in which it was first filed pursuant to
Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations or, if no filing pursuant to Rule
