Item
6. Indemnification
of Officers and Directors.
Our
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws generally provides for the maximum
indemnification of a corporation's officers and directors as permitted by law
in
the State of California. California law empowers a corporation to
indemnify any person who was or is a party or who is threatened to be made
a
party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except in the case
of
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 other enterprise. Depending on
the character of the proceeding, a corporation may indemnify against expenses
(including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding if the person indemnified 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 proceedings, had no
reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
A 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 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 other enterprise,
against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and attorney's fees
actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with the defense
or
settlement of the action or suit if he or she acted in good faith and in a
manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any
claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court
of
competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable
to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation unless
and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought
or
other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view
of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation
has
been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter
therein, he or she must be indemnified by the corporation against expenses,
including attorney's fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with the defense. The corporation, unless ordered by a court or advanced
pursuant to this section, must make any indemnification under this section,
only
as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification
of
the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances. The
determination must be made: (a) by the stockholders; (b) by the board
of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were
not
parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (c) if a majority vote of a
quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or
proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or
(d) if a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action,
suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.
The articles of incorporation, the bylaws or an agreement made by the
corporation may provide that the expenses of officers and directors incurred
in
defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding must be paid by the
corporation as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of
the
action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of
the
director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified
by the corporation. The provisions of this section do not affect any
rights to advancement of expenses to which corporate personnel other than
directors or officers may be entitled under any contract or otherwise by
law.
The indemnification and advancement of expenses authorized in or ordered by
a
court pursuant to this section: (a) do not exclude any other rights to
which a person seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be
entitled under the articles of incorporation or any bylaw, agreement, vote
of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, for either an action
in
his or her official capacity or an action in another capacity while holding
his
or her office, except that indemnification, unless ordered by a court pursuant
to this section or for the advancement of any director or officer if a final
adjudication establishes that his or her acts or omissions involved intentional
misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law and was material to the
cause of action; and (b) continues for a person who has ceased to be a
director, officer, employee or agent and inures to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a person.
Further,
we may enter into agreements of indemnification with our directors to provide
for indemnification to the fullest extent permitted under California
law.

9. Undertakings.
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. 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 a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement; and
(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 (1)(i) and (1)(ii) above do not apply if the Registration Statement
is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information required to be included in
a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is incorporated by reference from
periodic reports filed by the Registrant under the Exchange Act.
(2) That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus 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.
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 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 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.
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 Securities and Exchange 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies
that
it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for
filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed
on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of
San
Diego, State of California, on the 23rd day of October, 2007.
