YOU
SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY TOGETHER WITH THE MORE DETAILED INFORMATION
CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS, INCLUDING THE SECTION TITLED "RISK
FACTORS," REGARDING OUR COMPANY AND THE COMMON STOCK BEING SOLD IN THIS
OFFERING.
The
Company
HMS
Holdings Corp. (Holdings or the Company) provides a variety of cost containment
and payment accuracy services relating to government healthcare programs.
These
services are generally designed to help our clients increase revenue and
reduce
operating and administrative costs.
Our
customers are State Medicaid agencies, government-sponsored managed care
plans,
child support agencies, the Veterans Health Administration, the Centers
for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and other public programs. We help these
programs contain healthcare costs by identifying third party insurance
coverage
and recovering expenditures that were the responsibility of the third party,
or
that were paid in error. The identification of other insurance coverage
also
helps these programs avoid future expenditures. As well, we work on behalf
of
large public, voluntary and for profit hospitals to document services that
qualify for reimbursement through Medicare cost reports and other government
payment mechanisms.
Our
principal executive offices are located at 401 Park Avenue South, New York,
New
York 10016, and our telephone number is (212) 725-7965.
RISKS
RELATING TO OUR COMPANY AND OUR INDUSTRY
Our
operating results are subject to significant fluctuations due to variability
in
the timing of when we recognize contingency fee revenue and other factors.
As a
result, you will not be able to rely on our operating results in any particular
period as an indication of our future performance.
Our
revenue and consequently our operating results may vary significantly from
period to period as a result of a number of factors, including the loss
of
customers, fluctuations in sales activity given our sales cycle of approximately
three to eighteen months, and general economic conditions as they affect
healthcare providers and payors. Further, we have experienced fluctuations
in
our revenue between reporting periods due to the timing of periodic revenue
recovery projects and the timing and delays in third-party payors’ adjudication
of claims and ultimate payment to our clients where our fees are contingent
upon
such collections. The extent to which future revenue fluctuations could
occur
due to these factors is not known and cannot be predicted. As a consequence,
our
results of operations are subject to significant fluctuations and our results
of
operations for any particular quarter or fiscal year may not be indicative
of
results of operations for future periods. A significant portion of our
operating
expenses are fixed, and are based primarily on revenue and sales forecasts.
Any
inability on our part to reduce spending or to compensate for any failure
to
meet sales forecasts or receive anticipated revenues could magnify the
adverse
impact of such events on our operating results.
The
majority of our contracts with customers may be terminated for
convenience.
The
majority of our contracts with customers are terminable upon short notice
for
the convenience of either party. Although to date none of our material
contracts
have ever been terminated under these provisions, we cannot be assured
that a
material contract will not be terminated for convenience in the future.
Any
termination of a material contract, if not replaced, could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We
face significant competition for our services.
Competition
for our services is expected to increase. Increased competition could result
in
reductions in our prices, gross margins and market share. We compete with
other
providers of healthcare information management and data processing services,
as
well as healthcare consulting firms. Some competitors have formed business
alliances with other competitors that may affect our ability to work with
some
potential customers. In addition, if some of our competitors merge, a stronger
competitor may emerge.
Current
and prospective customers also evaluate our capabilities against the merits
of
their existing information management and data processing systems and expertise.
Major information management systems companies, including those specializing
in
the healthcare industry, that do not presently offer competing services
may
enter our markets. Many of our potential competitors have significantly
greater
financial, technical, product development, marketing and other resources,
and
market recognition than we have. As a result, our competitors may be able
to
respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies, changes in customer
requirements and changes in the political, economic or regulatory environment
in
the healthcare industry. In addition, several of our competitors may be
in a
position to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, and
sale of
their services than we can.
Simplification
of the healthcare payment process could reduce the need for our
services.
The
complexity of the healthcare payment process, and our experience in offering
services that improve the ability of our customers to recover incremental
revenue through that process, have been contributing factors to the success
of
our service offerings. Complexities of the healthcare payment process include
multiple payors, and the coordination and utilization of clinical, operational,
financial and/or administrative review instituted by third-party payors
in an
effort to control costs and manage care. If the payment processes associated
with the healthcare industry are simplified, the need for our services,
or the
price customers are willing to pay for our services, could be reduced.
Changes
in the United States healthcare environment could have a material negative
impact on our revenue and net income.
The
healthcare industry in the United States is subject to changing political,
economic and regulatory influences that may affect the procurement practices
and
operations of healthcare organizations. Our services are designed to function
within the structure of the healthcare financing and reimbursement system
currently being used in the United States. During the past several years,
the
healthcare industry has been subject to increasing levels of governmental
regulation of, among other things, reimbursement rates, certain capital
expenditures, and data confidentiality and privacy. From time to time,
certain
proposals to reform the healthcare system have been considered by Congress.
These proposals, if enacted, may increase government involvement in healthcare,
lower reimbursement rates and otherwise change the operating environment
for our
clients. Healthcare organizations may react to these proposals and the
uncertainty surrounding such proposals by curtailing or deferring their
retention of service providers such as us. We cannot predict what impact,
if
any, such proposals or healthcare reforms might have on our results of
operations, financial condition or business.
We
are subject to extensive government regulation, and any violation of the
laws
and regulations applicable to us could reduce our revenue and profitability
and
otherwise adversely affect our operating results.
Our
business is regulated by the federal government and the states in which
we
operate. The laws and regulations governing our operations are generally
intended to benefit and protect health plan members and providers rather
than
stockholders. The government agencies administering these laws and regulations
have broad latitude to enforce them. These laws and regulations, along
with the
terms of our government contracts, regulate how we do business, what services
we
offer, and how we interact with our clients, providers and the public.
We are
subject, on an ongoing basis, to various governmental reviews, audits and
investigations to verify our compliance with our contracts and applicable
laws
and regulations
Because
we receive payments from federal and state governmental agencies, we are
subject
to various laws, including the Federal False Claims Act, which permit the
federal government to institute suit against us for violations and, in
some
cases, to seek treble damages, penalties and assessments. Many states,
including
states where we currently do business, likewise have enacted parallel
legislation. In addition, private citizens, acting as whistleblowers, can
sue as
if they were the government under a special provision of the Act.
The
General Accounting Office, an investigative arm of Congress, has included
Medicaid on its list of high-risk programs. According to the GAO, states
have
used various financing schemes to generate excessive federal Medicaid matching
funds while their own share of expenditures has remained unchanged or decreased.
Also on January 30, 2004, the United States Senate Finance Committee Chairman
requested that the HHS, CMS, and OIG respond to a lengthy request for
information about vendors that provide contingency fee based revenue
maximization or revenue enhancement services to State Medicaid agencies
specifically with the intent to increase federal Medicaid reimbursement.
This
type of service represents a very small portion of the suite of HMS offerings
and corresponding revenue streams. We cannot predict what impact, if any,
this
inquiry might have on our future results of operations, financial condition
or
business.
Any
violations of any of these laws, rules or regulations or any adverse review,
audit or investigation could reduce our revenues and profitability and
otherwise
adversely affect our operating results.
We
must comply with restrictions on patient privacy and information security,
including taking steps to ensure that our business associates who obtain
access
to sensitive patient information maintain its
confidentiality.
The
use
of individually identifiable data by our businesses is regulated at the
federal
and state levels. These laws and rules are changed frequently by legislation
or
administrative interpretation. Various state laws address the use and disclosure
of individually identifiable health data. Most are derived from the privacy
and
security provisions in the federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). HIPAA also
imposes
guidelines on our business associates (as this term is defined in the HIPAA
regulations). Even though we provide for appropriate protections through
our
contracts with our business associates, we still have limited control over
their
actions and practices. Compliance with these proposals, requirements, and
new
regulations may result in cost increases due to necessary systems changes,
the
development of new administrative processes, and the effects of potential
noncompliance by our business associates. They also may impose further
restrictions on our use of patient identifiable data that is housed in
one or
more of our administrative databases.
Our
businesses depend on effective information systems and the integrity of
the data
in our information systems.
Our
ability to adequately price our products and services, provide effective
and
efficient service to our customers, and to accurately report our financial
results depends on the integrity of the data in our information systems.
As a
result of our acquisition activities, we have acquired additional systems.
We
have been taking steps to reduce the number of systems we operate. If the
information we rely upon to run our businesses was found to be inaccurate
or
unreliable or if we fail to maintain our information systems and data integrity
effectively, we could lose existing customers, have difficulty attracting
new
customers, have problems in establishing appropriate pricing, have disputes
with
customers and other health care providers, have regulatory problems, have
increases in operating expenses or suffer other adverse consequences.
We
depend on information suppliers. If we are unable to manage successfully
our
relationships with a number of these suppliers, the quality and availability
of
our services may be harmed.
We
obtain
some of the data used in our services from third party suppliers and government
entities. If a number of suppliers are no longer able or are unwilling
to
provide us with certain data, we may need to find alternative sources.
If we are
unable to identify and contract with suitable alternative data suppliers
and
integrate these data sources into our service offerings, we could experience
service disruptions, increased costs and reduced quality of our services.
Additionally, if one or more of our suppliers terminates our existing
agreements, there is no assurance that we will obtain new agreements with
third
party suppliers on terms favorable to us, if at all. Loss of such access
or the
availability of data in the future due to increased governmental regulation
or
otherwise could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations.
We
depend on our largest clients for significant revenue, and if we lose a
major
client, our revenue could be adversely affected.
We
generate a significant portion of our revenue from our largest clients.
For the
years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, our three largest clients
accounted for approximately 22%, 27% and 39% of our revenue from continuing
operations, respectively. If we were to lose a major client, our results
of
operations could be materially and adversely affected by the loss of revenue,
and we would seek to replace the client with new business.
Our
indebtedness results in significant debt service obligations and
limitations.
We
have
significant debt service obligations. Substantially all of our assets used
in
our business operations secure our obligations under our credit facilities.
Our
indebtedness may pose important consequences to investors, including the
risks
that:
|
·
|
we
will use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations
to pay
principal and interest on our debt, thereby reducing the funds
available
for acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures and other
general
corporate purposes;
|
|
·
|
increases
in our borrowings under our credit facilities may make it more
difficult
to satisfy our debt obligations;
|
|
·
|
our
borrowings under our credit facilities bear interest at variable
rates,
which could create higher debt service requirements if market
interest
rates increase;
|
|
·
|
our
degree of leverage may limit our ability to withstand competitive
pressure
and could reduce our flexibility in responding to changes in
business and
economic conditions;
|
|
·
|
our
degree of leverage may hinder our ability to adjust rapidly to
changing
market conditions and could make us more vulnerable to downturns
in the
economy or in our industry; and
|
|
·
|
our
failure to comply with debt covenants could result in our indebtedness
being immediately due and payable
|
If
we
cannot generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our obligations,
we
may be forced to reduce or delay acquisitions and other capital expenditures,
sell assets, restructure or refinance our debt, or seek additional equity
capital. There can be no assurance that these remedies would be available
or
satisfactory. Our cash flow from operations will be affected by prevailing
economic conditions and financial, business and other factors that may
be beyond
our control.
We
may not be able to realize the entire book value of goodwill and other
intangible assets from acquisitions.
As
of
December 31, 2007, we have approximately $80.2 million of goodwill and
$22.5
million of intangible assets. We have implemented the provisions of Statement
of
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets,” which requires that existing goodwill not be amortized, but instead be
assessed annually for impairment or sooner if circumstances indicate a
possible
impairment. We will monitor for impairment of goodwill on past and future
acquisitions. We perform our impairment testing in the second quarter of
each
year. In the event that the book value of goodwill is impaired, any such
impairment would be charged to earnings in the period of impairment. There
can
be no assurances that future impairment of goodwill under SFAS No. 142
will not
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or
results
of operations. Management performs the goodwill valuation.
RISKS
RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
Our
stock price is volatile, which could result in substantial losses for investors.
Our
common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, and there has
been
substantial volatility in the market price of our common stock. The trading
price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, subject
to
significant fluctuations due to a variety of factors, including:
|
·
|
fluctuations
in our quarterly operating and earnings per share results;
|
|
·
|
the
gain or loss of significant
contracts;
|
|
·
|
announcements
of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;
|
|
·
|
delays
in the development and introduction of new services;
|
|
·
|
legislative
or regulatory changes;
|
|
·
|
general
trends in the industry;

In
addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and
volume
fluctuations that have affected the market price of our common stock, as
well as
the stock of many companies in our industries. Often, price fluctuations
are
unrelated to operating performance of the specific companies whose stock
is
affected.
In
the
past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's
stock,
securities class action litigation has occurred against the issuing company.
If
we were subject to this type of litigation in the future, we could incur
substantial costs and a diversion of our management's attention and resources,
each of which could have a material adverse effect on our revenue and earnings.
Any adverse determination in this type of litigation could also subject
us to
significant liabilities.
Because
we do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock, an investor
in our
common stock will benefit only if it appreciates in value.
We
currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to finance the
expansion
of our business and do not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common
stock
in the foreseeable future. As a result, the success of an investment in
our
common stock will depend entirely upon any future appreciation. There is
no
guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain
the
price at which an investor purchased his or her shares.
Certain
provisions in our certificate of incorporation could discourage unsolicited
takeover attempts, which could depress the market price of our common
stock.
We
are
subject to the New York anti-takeover laws regulating corporate takeovers.
These
anti-takeover laws prohibit certain business combinations between a New
York
corporation and any "interested shareholder" (generally, the beneficial
owner of
20% or more of the corporation's voting shares) for five years following
the
time that the shareholder became an interested shareholder, unless the
corporation's board of directors approved the transaction prior to the
interested shareholder becoming interested.
Our
certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000
shares
of “blank check” preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences
as may be determined by our Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board
of
Directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue preferred
stock
with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights, which could
adversely affect the voting power or, other rights of holders of our common
stock. In the event of issuance, preferred stock could be utilized, under
certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing
a
change in control. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares
of
preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.
In
addition, our by-laws provide for a classified Board of Directors, which
could
also have the effect of discouraging a change of control.
This
prospectus includes and incorporates forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities
Act), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the Exchange Act). All statements, other than statements of historical facts,
included or incorporated in this prospectus regarding our strategy, future
operations, financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects,
plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. The words
“anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,”
“projects,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain
these identifying words. We cannot guarantee that we actually will achieve
the
plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements
and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.
Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions
and
expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have
included important factors in the cautionary statements included or incorporated
in this prospectus, particularly under the heading “Risk Factors”, that we
believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the
forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do
not
reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions,
joint ventures or investments we may make. Any such forward-looking statements
represent management’s views as of the date of the document in which such
forward-looking statement is contained. While we may elect to update such
forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we disclaim any
obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to
change.
The
shares of common stock offered by this prospectus are being registered for
the
account of the selling shareholders identified in this prospectus. See “Selling
Shareholders.” All net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock will
go to the shareholders that offer and sell their shares. We will not receive
any
part of the proceeds from such sales of common stock. We will, however, receive
the exercise price of the options at the time of their exercise. Such proceeds
will be contributed to working capital and will be used for general corporate
purposes.
The
shares of common stock to which this prospectus relates may be reoffered and
sold from time to time by selling shareholders who may be deemed our
"affiliates" (as defined in Rule 501(b) of Regulation D of the Securities Act
of
1933, as amended). The selling shareholders will acquire or have acquired the
shares of common stock upon exercise of options or other awards granted or
to be
granted to them pursuant to our Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Plan ("2006
Plan"), upon exercise of options granted under our 1999 Long-Term Incentive
Stock Plan ("1999 Plan"), upon exercise of options granted by us pursuant to
four Stock Option Agreement (“Option Agreements”) or upon exercise of options
granted under our 1995 Non-Employee Director Stock Plan ("1995 Plan"). The
table
below identifies each selling shareholder and his or her relationship to us.
The
table also sets forth, as of March 12, 2008 for each selling shareholder: (i)
the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned prior to this offering,
(ii) the number of shares of common stock that may be offered and sold through
this prospectus, and (iii) the number of shares of common stock and the
percentage of the class represented by such shares to be owned by each such
selling shareholder assuming the sale of all of the registered shares. There
is
no assurance that any of the selling shareholders will sell any or all of their
shares of common stock. The inclusion in the table of the individuals named
therein shall not be deemed to be an admission that any such individuals are
one
of our affiliates. Except as otherwise noted, all shares of common stock are
beneficially owned and the sole investment and voting power is held by the
person named, and such persons' address is c/o HMS Holdings Corp., 401 Park
Avenue South, New York, New York 10016. Information regarding the selling
shareholders, including the number of shares offered for sale, may change from
time to time, and any changed information will be set forth in a prospectus
supplement to the extent required.

The
shares covered by this prospectus may be offered and sold from time to time
by
the selling stockholders. The term “selling stockholders” includes donees,
pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares received
after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge,
partnership distribution or other non-sale related transfer. The selling
stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect
to
the timing, manner and size of each sale. Such sales may be made on one or
more
exchanges or in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at prices and under
terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price
or
in negotiated transactions. The selling stockholders may sell their shares
by
one or more of, or a combination of, the following methods:
|
·
|
purchases
by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer
for its
own account pursuant to this
prospectus;
|
|
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits
purchasers;
|
|
·
|
block
trades in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell
the
shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block
as
principal to facilitate the
transaction;
|
|
·
|
an
over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of the
Nasdaq
Global Select Market;
|
|
·
|
in
privately negotiated transactions;
and
|
|
·
|
in
options transactions.
|
In
addition, any shares that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold
under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
To
the
extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to
time to describe a specific plan of distribution. In connection with
distributions of the shares or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter
into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions.
In connection with such transactions, broker-dealers or other financial
institutions may engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of
hedging the positions they assume with selling stockholders. The selling
stockholders may also sell the common stock short and redeliver the shares
to
close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may also enter into
option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions
that require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution
of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other
financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented
or
amended to reflect such transaction). The selling stockholders may also pledge
shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution,
and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial institution may
effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented
or amended to reflect such transaction).
In
effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders
may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents
may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders
in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.
In
offering the shares covered by this prospectus, the selling stockholders and
any
broker-dealers who execute sales for the selling stockholders may be deemed
to
be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with
such sales. Any profits realized by the selling stockholders and the
compensation of any broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting discounts
and
commissions.
In
order
to comply with the securities laws of certain states, if applicable, the shares
must be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers
or dealers. In addition, in certain states the shares may not be sold unless
they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or
an
exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and
is
complied with.
We
have
advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation
M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to
the
activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, we
will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling stockholders for
the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities
Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates
in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities,
including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
At
the
time a particular offer of shares is made, if required, a prospectus supplement
will be distributed that will set forth the number of shares being offered
and
the terms of the offering, including the name of any underwriter, dealer or
agent, the purchase price paid by any underwriter, any discount, commission
and
other item constituting compensation, any discount, commission or concession
allowed or reallowed or paid to any dealer, and the proposed selling price
to
the public.
The
validity of the shares of common stock will be passed upon for us by Meister
Seelig & Fein LLP, New York, New York.

The
SEC
allows us to "incorporate by reference" the information we file with them,
which
means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to

Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling us, we have been
advised that it is the SEC’s opinion that such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.

against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses,
including attorneys’ fees, in connection with actions or proceedings, whether
civil or criminal (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation
-
a “derivative action”), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard
is
applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only
extends to amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses (including
attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such
actions, and the statute does not apply in respect of a threatened action,
or a
pending action that is settled or otherwise disposed of, and requires court
approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking
indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. Section 721 of
the BCL provides that Article 7 of the BCL is not exclusive of other
indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of
incorporation, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or
otherwise. Article VIII, Section 7, of the Registrant’s by-laws
requires the Registrant to indemnify its officers and directors to the fullest
extent permitted under the BCL.
Any
amendment to or repeal of the Registrant’s certificate of incorporation or
by-laws shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of
the
Registrant for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director
occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.
The
certificate of incorporation of the Registrant (Article Ninth) provides the
following:
Pursuant
to Section 402(b) of the Business Corporation Law, the liability of the
Corporation’s directors to the Corporation or its shareholders for damages for
breach of duty as a director shall be eliminated to the fullest extent permitted
by the Business Corporation Law, as it exists on the date hereof or as it may
hereafter be amended. No amendment to or repeal of this Article shall apply
to
or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of
the
Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director
occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.
In
addition, the Registrant maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance
policies.

Item
9. Undertakings.
(a)
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
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, as amended (the “Securities Act”);
(ii)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of this 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 the 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 a prospectus filed with the
SEC
pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act 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; and
(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 this Registration Statement;
Provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) shall not apply to information
contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this 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
(and, when applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report
pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by
reference in this 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.
(c)
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 SEC 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.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act, the Registrant certifies that it
has
reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing
on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on
its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New
York, State of New York, on this 20th day of March, 2008.
