In applicable

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Sections 7-109-102 and 7-109-107 of the Colorado General Corporate Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers, as well as employees, fiduciaries and agents, against reasonable expenses actually incurred by any such person in connection with any proceeding in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant. The Colorado General Corporate Law provides that Section 7-109-107 is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, general or specific action of the board of directors or shareholders or by contract. Article X of the Registrant's Articles of Incorporation and Article V of the Registrant's Bylaws provide for indemnification by the Registrant of its directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries and agents to the fullest extent permitted by the Colorado General Corporate Law.

The Registrant has not, as of this time, obtained any directors' and/or officers' insurance providing for indemnification of the Registrant's directors, officers and/or employees for certain liabilities, but it expects to do so in the future.

The Registrant has not entered into any indemnification agreements with any of its current or past directors or officers providing for indemnification under certain circumstances for acts and omissions which may not be covered by any directors' and officers' liability insurance.

Item 9. Undertakings

  1. 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:
      1. To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
      2. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or event arising out of 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 for the in the Registration Statement;
      3. 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 (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Seciton 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; and
      4. 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.

    2. 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 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 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 defencse 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.
