                  Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Securities

deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part of
this Registration Statement from the date of filing of such documents.

         Any statement contained in this Registration Statement or in a document
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent
that a statement contained herein or in any Subsequently Filed Document modifies
or supersedes such statement. Any such modified or superseded statement shall

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         There are no provisions in the Amended Articles of Incorporation (the
"Articles") by which an officer or director may be indemnified against any
liability which he or she may incur in his or her capacity as such. However, the
Company has indemnification provisions in its Regulations which provide the
Company will, to the full extent permitted by Ohio law, indemnify all persons
whom it may indemnify under such law.

         Reference is made to Section 1701.13(E) of the Ohio Revised Code, which
provides for indemnification of directors and officers in certain circumstances.

         The Company provides liability insurance for its directors and officers
for certain losses arising from certain claims and charges, including claims and
charges under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be made against such persons
while acting in their capacities as directors and officers of the Company.

         The above discussion of the Articles, Regulations and Section
1701.13(E) of the Ohio Revised Code is not intended to be exhaustive and is
respectively qualified in its entirety by the Articles, Regulations and such
statute.

         (1)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (a)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales
                           of the securities registered hereunder 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

                                    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 this registration
                                    statement or any material change to such
                                    information in the registration statement;

                           Provided, however, that the undertakings in clauses
                           (i) - (ii) hereof will not apply if the information
                           required to be included in a post-effective amendment
                           by those



                                      II-2


                                    clauses is contained in periodic reports
                                    filed with or furnished to the Commission by
                                    the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
                                    Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
                                    of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
                                    in this registration statement.

                           (b)      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.

                           (c)      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.

         (2) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) 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.

         (3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 512(h) of
Regulation S-K, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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 is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issues.
