The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions to closing, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. The closing is expected to occur and delivery of the shares is expected to be made on or about April 5, 2011.
The Underwriting Agreement is filed as an exhibit with this Current Report.
