Competent and experienced persons are reluctant to serve or to continue
to serve as directors and officers of corporations or in other capacities
unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or
indemnification (or both) against claims against them arising out of their
service and activities on behalf of the corporation.</font></p>

The current uncertainties relating to the availability of adequate
insurance have increased the difficulty for corporations of attracting and
retaining competent and experienced persons to serve in such capacity.</font></p>

<p align="left" style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-align:left;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

The Board of Directors of the Company (the &#147;<b><i><font style="font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Board of Directors</font></i></b>&#148;) has determined that the
continuation of present trends in litigation will make it more difficult to
attract and retain competent and experienced persons to serve as directors and
officers of the Company, that this situation is detrimental to the best
interests of the Company&#146;s stockholders and that the Company should act to
assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of adequate
protection in the future.</font></p>

Bylaws, as amended (the &#147;<b><i><font style="font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Bylaws</font></i></b>&#148;), it is reasonable, prudent, desirable and
necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to
pay in advance expenses on behalf of, officers and directors to the fullest
extent permitted by law so that they will serve or continue to serve the
Company free from concern that they will not be so indemnified and that their
expenses will not be so paid in advance;</font></p>

This Agreement is not a substitute for, nor does it diminish or abrogate
any rights of Indemnitee under, the Articles and the Bylaws or any resolutions
adopted pursuant thereto (including any contractual rights of Indemnitee that
may exist).</font></p>

Indemnitee is a director and/or officer of the Company and his or her

extent permitted by the laws of the State of Texas and upon the other

of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party because of the authorship

particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties intend that
each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have
independent significance. If any party has breached any representation,
warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there
exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same
subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the
party has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that the
party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.&#160; Time is of the essence in the performance of
this Agreement.</h2>
