Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable. The class of securities to be offered is registered under Section 12 of the
Exchange Act.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Richardson & Patel LLP has given an opinion on the validity of the securities being registered
hereunder. Erick Richardson and Nimish Patel, partners of the law firm, are eligible to receive
shares of the Companys common stock pursuant to this Form S-8 registration statement. Richardson

warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of the Registrants common stock at $0.25 per share, warrants
to purchase 100,000 shares of the Registrants common stock at $1.00 per share, and warrants to

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Article X of the Companys Amended and Restated Bylaws (the Bylaws) provides that the
Company shall indemnify and defend its directors, officers, employees, and agents to the extent
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, indemnification against expenses (including attorneys fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by directors, officers, employees, and agents is required in those cases where
the person to be indemnified has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of a
lawsuit. Indemnification is permitted in third party actions where the indemnified party acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation and in criminal actions where he had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. Indemnification is also permitted in lawsuits brought by or on behalf of the corporation
if the standards of conduct described above are met, except that no indemnification is permitted in
respect to any matter in which the person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless a
court shall determine that indemnification is fair and reasonable in view of all the circumstances
in the case. In cases where indemnification is permissive, a determination as to whether the
person met the applicable standard of conduct must be made either by the court, by disinterested
directors, by independent legal counsel, or by the stockholders. The corporation is authorized to
advance expenses incurred prior to the final disposition of a matter upon receipt of an undertaking
to repay such amounts on a determination that indemnification was not permitted in the
circumstances of the case. The statute also expressly provides that the power to indemnify
authorized thereby is not exclusive of any rights granted under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. In addition, a corporation has the power to
purchase and maintain insurance for such persons. The above discussion of the Companys Bylaws and of Section 145
of the Delaware General Corporation Law is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its
entirety by such Bylaws and statute.

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 of
1933; |
|
|
(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 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 (1)(i), and (1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration
Statement is on Form S-8 and 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 section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. |
|
(2) |
|
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, 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. |
|
|
(4) |
|
That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each filing of the registrants annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plans 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. |
(b) |
|
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrants annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plans 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, executive 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. |
