Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference

 

The Registrant hereby incorporates by reference in this Registration Statement the following documents and information heretofore filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”):

 

  (a) The Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2005 filed pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) on April 18, 2005.

  (c) The Registrant’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Commission on April 28, 2005 pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, as amended on May 4, 2005.

 

  (d) The description of the Registrant’s Common Stock contained in the Registrant’s Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission on March 12, 1993, pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.

 

All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents. Any statement contained herein or in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such earlier statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities

 

Inapplicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

 

Inapplicable.


Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) permits a corporation to include in its charter documents, and in agreements between the corporation and its directors and officers, provisions to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they may incur in such capacities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1993, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

As permitted by DGCL Section 102(b)(7), Article VI of the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Restated Certificate”), provides that a director of the Registrant shall, to the full extent not prohibited by the DGCL, not be liable to the Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of his or her fiduciary duty as a director. This provision does not eliminate the directors’ duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available under the DGCL. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Registrant, for acts or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under the DGCL. This provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

 

Article XI of the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (the “Bylaws”), provides that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and executive officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by the DCGL and shall have power to indemnify its other officers, employees and other agents as set forth in the DGCL or any other applicable law.

 

The Registrant has entered into agreements with its current directors and officers and intends to enter into agreements with its future directors and officers that require the Registrant to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the provisions of the Restated Certificate, the Bylaws and the DGCL against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred (including expenses of a derivative action) in connection with any proceeding, whether actual or threatened, to which any such person may be made a party by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Registrant or any of its affiliated enterprises. The DGCL permits such indemnification provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The indemnification agreements also set forth certain procedures that will apply in the event of a claim for indemnification thereunder.

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 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.

 

  (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 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.

 

  (c)

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 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.
