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 a 20% 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;
|
|
(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 the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under
the
Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution
of the
securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary
offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to
this
registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used
to sell
the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or
sold to
such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the
undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will
be
considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
|
|
(i)
|
Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant
relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
|
|
(ii)
|
Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on
behalf
of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned
registrant;
|
|
(iii)
|
The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering
containing material information about the undersigned registrant
or its
securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant;
and
|
|
(iv)
|
Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the
undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
