Item 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.

     Each share of our common stock has the same relative rights and is identical in all respects with each other share of common stock.

     Subject to any prior rights of the holders of any preferred stock then outstanding, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as are declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefore.

     Full voting rights are vested in the holders of common stock, each share being entitled to one vote, subject to the rights of the holders of any preferred stock then outstanding. Our board of directors may issue authorized shares of common stock without stockholder approval. Subject to any prior rights of the holders of any preferred stock then outstanding, in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive, pro rata, any assets distributable to stockholders with respect to shares held by them. Holders of shares of common stock do not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for any additional securities which may be issued by us or any cumulative voting rights. The outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

     Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws require that any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders must be effected at a duly called annual meeting, a special meeting of the stockholders, or may be effected by a consent in writing. In addition, special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by our chief executive officer, our president, or a majority of our board of directors.

     Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws also provide that vacancies on the board of directors created either by resignation, death, retirement, disqualification, removal or by an increase in the size of the board of directors may be filled by a majority of the directors in office, although less than a quorum.
