ITEM 3.  INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

         The following documents filed by the Registrant with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission (the "Commission")  pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the  "Securities  Act"),  are  incorporated  by reference  into this
Registration  Statement:  (i) the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K, filed
with the  Commission on March 18, 2002,  for the fiscal year ended  December 30,
2001 (File No. 001-15295);  and (ii) the description of the Registrant's  Common
Stock  contained  in the  Registrant's  Registration  Statement  on Form 10,  as
amended, filed with the Commission (File No. 001-15295).

         All documents  subsequently filed by the Registrant with the Commission
pursuant to Sections 13(a),  13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities  Exchange Act
of 1934,  as amended (the  "Exchange  Act") after the date of this  Registration
Statement,  but  prior  to the  filing  of a  post-effective  amendment  to this
Registration  Statement  which  indicates  that all  securities  offered by this
Registration  Statement have been sold or which  deregisters all such securities
then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
Registration  Statement.  Each  document  incorporated  by  reference  into this
Registration  Statement  shall  be  deemed  to be a part  of  this  Registration
Statement from the date of filing of such document with the Commission until the
information contained therein is superseded or updated by any subsequently filed
document which is incorporated by reference into this Registration  Statement or
by any  document  which  constitutes  part  of the  prospectus  relating  to the

ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

         None.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

          Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")
permits a Delaware corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, to limit or
eliminate, subject to certain statutory limitations, the liability of a director
to the  corporation  or its  stockholders  for  monetary  damages  for breach of
fiduciary  duty,  except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the  corporation or its  stockholders,  (ii) for acts or omissions
not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation
of law,  (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) for any  transaction  from
which the director derived an improper  personal  benefit.  Article SEVEN of the
Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation  provides that no director of
the Registrant shall be personally  liable to the Registrant or its stockholders
in accordance with the foregoing provisions of Section 102(b)(7).

          Under Section 145 of the DGCL, a Delaware corporation has the power to
indemnify  directors and officers under certain  prescribed  circumstances  and,
subject to certain  limitations,  against certain costs and expenses,  including
attorneys' fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to
which any of them is a party by reason of being a  director  or  officer  of the
Registrant  if it is  determined  that  the  director  or the  officer  acted in
accordance  with the applicable  standard of conduct set forth in such statutory
provision.   Article  EIGHT  of  the   Registrant's   Restated   Certificate  of
Incorporation  provides  that  any  person  who  was or is  made a  party  or is
threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal,  administrative or investigative, by reason
of  the  fact  that  such  person  is or was a  director  or an  officer  of the
Registrant or is or was serving at the request of the  Registrant as a director,
officer,  employee or agent of another  corporation or of a  partnership,  joint
venture,  trust  or other  enterprise,  including


                                     II - 1


service  with  respect to an employee  benefit  plan,  whether the basis of such
proceeding  is alleged  action in an official  capacity as a director,  officer,
employee  or agent or in any  capacity  while  serving as a  director,  officer,
employee or agent,  shall be indemnified  and held harmless by the Registrant to
the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL.

          The  Registrant  has  purchased  directors'  and  officers'  liability
insurance covering certain liabilities which may be incurred by the officers and
directors of the Registrant in connection with the performance of their duties.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

         (a)      The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

         (1) To file, during any period in which offers of 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;

                           (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;

                           (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;

Provided,  however,  that Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do
not apply if the  Registration  Statement is on Form S-3,  Form S-8 or Form F-3,
and 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 Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act
that are incorporated by reference 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 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.

                                      * * *

         (h)  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.
