Certain legal matters in connection with the offering of the securities registered hereunder are being passed upon for the Registrant by Certilman Balin Adler & Hyman, LLP, 90 Merrick Avenue, East Meadow, New York 11554, a stockholder of the Registrant.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

The Registrant is governed by Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”). Section 78.7502(1) of the NRS provides that a corporation may, and the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) and By-Laws provide that the Registrant shall, indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (an “Action”), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of the corporation in such capacity in another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (the “Indemnified Party”), against expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he 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, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful; provided, however, no indemnification shall be made in respect of any Actions by or in the right of the corporation if the Indemnified Party shall have been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of any appeals, to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court shall determine that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity.

Under the NRS, the directors have a fiduciary duty to the Registrant that is not eliminated by this provision of the Articles and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability under the NRS for breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Registrant for acts or omissions which are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to not be in good faith or involve intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by the NRS. This provision also does not affect the directors’ responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.

Furthermore, Section 78.7502(3) of the NRS provides that determination of an Indemnified Party’s eligibility for indemnification by the Registrant shall be made on a case-by-case basis by: (i) the stockholders; (ii) the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; or (iii) independent legal counsel’s written opinion if: (1) a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders; or (2) a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained.

Lastly, Section 78.752(1) of the NRS empowers a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements with respect to liability arising out of the actions or omissions of directors, officers, employees or agents in their capacity or status as such, whether or not the corporation has the authority to indemnify him against such liability.

The Articles provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, no director or officer shall be personally liable to the Registrant or to its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or an officer, except to the extent that such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the NRS currently in effect or as the same may be amended. If the NRS is amended to further eliminate or limit or authorize corporate action to further eliminate or limit the liability of directors or officers, the liability of directors and officers of the Registrant shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the NRS, as so amended from time to time. No repeal or modification of this provision of the Articles will apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director or officer of the Registrant for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such directors or officers occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

The Registrant’s Bylaws provide that the Registrant will indemnify and hold harmless any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in such manner, under such circumstances and to the fullest extent permitted by the Articles and the NRS.
