                         Aliso Viejo, California 92656
                         Attention: Corporate Secretary

                DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. For example,
statements that relate to our expectations regarding projected earning levels,
market outlook, new awards, backlog levels, competition, the adequacy of funds
to service debt and the implementation of new strategic initiatives are forward
looking in nature. These forward-looking statements reflect our current analysis
of existing information, although no assurance can be given that such statements
will be realized. Due to unknown risks, our actual results may differ materially
from our expectations or projections. As a result, caution must be exercised in
relying on forward-looking statements. The factors potentially contributing to
such differences include, among others:

     - Changes in global business, economic, political and social conditions;

     - Our failure to receive anticipated new contract awards;

     - Customer cancellations of, or scope adjustments to, existing contracts;

                                        3


     - Difficulties or delays incurred in the execution of construction
       contracts resulting in cost overruns or liabilities;

     - Customer delays or defaults in making payments;

     - Difficulties and delays incurred in the implementation of strategic
       initiatives;

     - Risks and impacts resulting from our reverse spin-off transaction
       completed on November 30, 2000 involving Massey Energy Company; and

     - Competition in the global engineering, procurement and construction
       industry.

     The forward-looking statements are also based on various operating
assumptions regarding, among other matters, overhead costs and employment levels
that may not be realized. In addition, while most risks affect only future costs
or revenues that we anticipate we will receive, some risks may relate to
accruals that have already been reflected in earnings. Our failure to receive
payments of these accrued earnings could result in charges against future
earnings.


     Additional information concerning factors that may influence our results
can be found in press releases and periodic filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission including the risk factors set forth in the section
captioned "Company Risk Factors" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2001. These filings are available publicly and upon
request from Fluor's Investor Relations Department: (949) 349-3909. We disclaim
any intent or obligation to update forward-looking statements.

                                  THE COMPANY


     Fluor Corporation is a leading professional services company offering a
diverse range of value-added, knowledge-based services from traditional
engineering, procurement and construction services to total asset management.
Fluor Corporation is basically a holding company which owns, directly or
indirectly, the stock of numerous subsidiary corporations. Fluor Corporation is
aligned into five principal operating segments:



     (1) The Energy and Chemicals segment provides design, engineering,
         procurement and construction services on a worldwide basis to an
         extensive range of oil, gas, refining, chemical, polymer and
         petrochemical clients;



     (2) The Industrial and Infrastructure segment provides design, engineering,
         procurement and construction services to a broad base of businesses
         including general industrial, commercial, institutional, manufacturing,
         infrastructure, telecommunications, mining and technology customers on
         a global basis;



     (3)The Power segment designs, engineers and constructs power facilities
        globally;



     (4)The Global Services segment provides operations and maintenance support,
        temporary staffing, equipment and outsourcing and asset management
        solutions to Fluor Corporation's projects as well as to third party
        clients; and



     (5)The Government Services segment provides administration and support
        services to the federal government and other governmental parties.



     Fluor Constructors International, Inc., which is organized and operates
separately from our operating segments, provides unionized management,
construction and management services in the United States and Canada, both
independently and as a subcontractor, on projects to our operating segments.


     On November 30, 2000, Fluor Corporation completed a reverse spin-off
transaction in which its coal segment, previously operated under its A. T.
Massey Coal Company, Inc. subsidiary, was separated from the other business
segments of Fluor Corporation.

     Fluor Corporation was incorporated in Delaware on September 11, 2000. Fluor
Corporation's principal executive offices are located at One Enterprise Drive,
Aliso Viejo, California 92656, telephone number (949) 349-2000.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     Except as otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement, we will use the
net proceeds from the sale of the debt securities for general corporate purposes
including working capital, capital expenditures, stock purchase programs,
repayment and refinancing of debt and acquisitions. We may invest funds not
required immediately for such purposes in marketable securities and short-term
investments.

                       RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES



     Our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for each of the four years ended
October 31, 2000 and the year ended December 31, 2001 is as follows:





 YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31,     YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
-------------------------   -----------------------
1997   1998   1999   2000            2001
----   ----   ----   ----            ----
                
3.59.. 5.50   2.86   4.10            4.80




     For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges,
"earnings" consist of earnings from continuing operations before provision for
income taxes plus fixed charges less equity in earnings from less than 50% owned
persons, net of distributions. "Fixed charges" consist of interest and
approximately one-third of rental expense. Please also refer to the section
captioned "Results of Operations" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2001 for a discussion of factors which have
affected our earnings from continuing operations before income taxes.


                       DESCRIPTION OF THE DEBT SECURITIES

     The debt securities covered by this prospectus will be our direct unsecured
obligations. The debt securities will be issued in one or more series under an
indenture, between us and The Bank of New York, as trustee. Because we are a
holding company, however, our ability to meet our debt obligations depends upon
the earnings of, and dividends and other payments from, our subsidiaries.
Furthermore, the debt securities offered hereby will be effectively subordinated
to all existing and future liabilities of our subsidiaries. This means that upon
the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency of any of our subsidiaries, the
claims of creditors and any preferred stockholders will generally take priority
over our right to participate as a stockholder in any distribution of the assets
of such subsidiary.

     This prospectus briefly outlines the material provisions of the indenture.
A copy of the form of indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration
statement. Although this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement
provide all the information that we believe is material with respect to the debt
securities, you should read the indenture for provisions that may be important
to you. In the summary below, we have included references to section numbers of
the indenture so that you can easily locate these provisions.

GENERAL

     The debt securities will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and
unsubordinated debt. The indenture does not limit the amount of debt we may
issue under the indenture or otherwise. We may issue the debt securities in one
or more series with the same or various maturities, at par or a premium, or with
original issue discount.

     The debt securities may be issuable in the form of one or more global
securities, as further described under the caption "Global Securities" below.
Except for any debt securities issued in the form of a global security, the debt
securities are exchangeable or transferable without charge. We may, however,
require you to pay us for any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection with the transfer and exchange and may also require you to furnish
appropriate endorsements and transfer documents. (Section 3.05)

                                        6


     Unless otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement, any principal,
premium or interest payment will be payable, and the transfer of debt securities
will be registrable, at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee. In
addition, unless otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement and except in
the case of any debt securities issued in the form of a global security, we may
opt to make interest payments by check, mailed to the address of the person
entitled to receive the interest payment as reflected on the security register.
(Sections 3.01, 3.05, 10.01 and 10.02)

     The prospectus supplement relating to any series of debt securities being
offered will include all additional material terms of the offering not otherwise
contained in this prospectus. These terms will include some or all of the
following:

          (1) The title of the debt securities;

          (2) The aggregate principal amount of the debt securities;

          (3) The person to whom any interest on the debt securities will be

     regular record date for such interest;

          (4) The date or dates on which the principal of the debt securities
     will be payable or the method for determining such date or dates and any
     rights of extension;

          (5) The interest rate or rates at which the debt securities will bear
     interest, if any, and the date or dates from which such interest will
     accrue, the interest payment dates for the debt securities and the regular
     record dates for any interest payable on any interest payment date;

          (6) The place or places where the principal of and any interest on the
     debt securities are payable;

          (7) The terms and conditions of any optional or mandatory redemption
     provisions;

          (8) The terms and conditions of any sinking fund or other analogous
     provision that would obligate us to redeem or repurchase the debt
     securities, in whole or in part, and any remarketing provisions for the
     debt securities;

          (9) The denominations in which the debt securities will be issuable,
     if other than denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof;

          (10) Any index or formula by which the amount of the principal, any
     premium or interest payments on the debt securities will be determined and
     the identity of any calculation agent;

          (11) The currency in which the principal, any premium or interest
     payments on the debt securities will be paid, if other than United States
     dollars;

          (12) The amount of principal payable upon acceleration of the debt
     securities following an Event of Default, if other than the entire
     principal amount;

          (13) Any amount which will be deemed to be the principal amount of the
     debt securities as of a particular maturity date or the manner in which the
     principal amount is to be determined, if the principal amount payable at
     the maturity date will not be determinable prior to the maturity date;

          (14) Any changes to the defeasibility of the debt securities;

          (15) Whether the debt securities are to be issued in whole or in part
     in the form of one or more global securities held by a depositary on behalf
     of holders or in the form of individual certificates to be held by each
     holder and the circumstances under which any global security may be
     exchanged for debt securities;

                                        7


          (16) Any additions to or changes in the Events of Default which apply
     to the debt securities and any changes in the right of the Trustee or the
     holders of the debt securities to accelerate the maturity of the debt
     securities;

          (17) Any changes to the definition of "Business Day" with respect to
     the debt securities;

          (18) Whether the satisfaction of other conditions, in addition to
     those specified in the indenture, are required and the terms of the
     conditions;

          (19) Any terms or conditions upon which holders may convert or
     exchange the debt securities into shares of our common stock or other
     securities or property;

          (20) Any additions to or changes in the covenants set forth in the
     indenture;

          (21) Any other specific terms of the debt securities.

(Section 3.01)

     The debt securities may be issued with original issue discount, which means
that the debt securities may be sold at a discount below their principal amount.
Even if debt securities are not issued at a discount below their principal
amount, the debt securities may, for United States Federal income tax purposes,
be deemed to have been issued with original issue discount because of their
interest payment characteristics. United States Federal income tax and other
considerations applicable to debt securities issued with original issue discount
will be described in the prospectus supplement relating to those debt
securities. In addition, United States Federal tax considerations or other terms
or restrictions applicable to debt securities which are denominated in a
currency other than United States dollars will be described in the prospectus
supplement relating to those debt securities.

                    thereof or the District of Columbia, and

                  - expressly assumes, by a supplemental indenture, all of our
                    obligations with respect to the debt securities and the
                    indenture;

          (2) immediately after such transaction, no Event of Default exists;

          (3) if, as a result of any such transaction, our properties or assets
     would become subject to a lien which would not be permitted by the
     indenture, we or our successor, as applicable, secures the debt securities
     equally and ratably with debt secured by such lien; and

          (4) other conditions specified in the indenture are met.

(Section 8.01)

     The successor entity would succeed to and would be able to exercise every
right and power that we possess under the indenture. Except in the case of a
lease of substantially

                                        8


all of our properties and assets, we will thereafter be relieved of all
obligations and covenants under the indenture and the debt securities. (Section
8.02)

MODIFICATION OF INDENTURE

     There are three categories of changes that we can make to the indenture and
the debt securities. First, there are changes that cannot be made to the debt
securities without the approval of each holder of debt securities affected by
the change. Second, there are changes that can be made with the approval of
holders of debt securities owning a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by the change (voting as
one class). All other changes may be made by us without the consent or vote of
holders of the debt securities.

     The following is a summary of the changes that cannot be made without the
approval of each holder of debt securities affected by the change:

          (1) changes to the time for paying principal or interest on any debt
     security;

          (2) reductions in the amount of principal of or interest on any debt
     security;

          (3) reductions in the amount of premium payable upon the redemption of
     a debt security;

          (4) reductions in the amount of principal of a debt security issued
     with original issue discount or any other debt security that would be due
     and payable upon acceleration of the maturity date;

          (5) changes to the place where, or the currency in which, any debt
     security is payable;

          (6) impairment of the right to sue for the payment of any debt
     security;

          (7) reductions in the percentage of aggregate principal amount of debt
     securities of any series, the consent of the holders of which is required
     to modify or amend the indenture; or

          (8) modifications to provisions relating to the requirements for
     waiving compliance with some provisions or some defaults.

(Section 9.02)

     Holders of debt securities owning a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding debt securities of all series affected by a change (voting as
one class) may, on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of the series,
waive:

          (1) compliance by us with certain provisions of the indenture;
     (Section 10.09)

          (2) any past default under the indenture with respect to debt
     securities of the series, except a default (a) in the payment of principal
     of, or any premium or interest on, any debt security of the series, or (b)
     in respect of a covenant or provision of the indenture which cannot be
     modified without the consent of each holder of debt securities of a series
     affected by the modification. (Section 5.13)

     In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding debt securities have given, made or taken any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action,

          (1) the principal amount of a debt security issued with original issue
     discount will be deemed to be the amount of the principal which would be
     then due and payable;

                                        9


          (2) if the principal amount payable at the stated maturity date of a
     debt security is not determinable, the principal amount of the debt
     security will be deemed to be the amount established in the applicable
     supplemental indenture;

          (3) the principal amount of a debt security denominated in one or more
     foreign currencies or currency units will be deemed to be the U.S. dollar
     equivalent of the principal amount of the debt security, determined

             - in the manner established in the applicable supplemental
               indenture or

             - in the case of a debt security described in clause (1) or (2)
               above, as provided in that clause; and

          (4) debt securities owned by us, any of our affiliates or any other
     obligor will be disregarded. In determining whether the Trustee will be
     protected in relying upon any request, demand, authorization, direction,
     notice, consent, waiver or other action, only debt securities which the
     Trustee knows to be so owned will be disregarded. Debt securities so owned
     which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the
     pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right
     to so act with respect to the debt securities and that the pledgee is not
     us, an affiliate of ours or any other obligor.

(Section 1.02)

EVENTS OF DEFAULT

     The following will be "Events of Default" under the indenture with respect
to the debt securities of any series, unless otherwise specified in a prospectus
supplement:

          (1) failure to pay any interest when due and payable, and the failure
     continues for 30 days;

          (2) failure to pay principal or any premium at the maturity date;

          (3) failure to deposit any sinking fund payment, when and as due, and
     the failure continues for 30 days;

          (4) except as otherwise specified by the indenture or with respect to
     a covenant included solely for the benefit of debt securities other than
     that series, failure to perform any other of our covenants under the
     indenture, and the failure continues for 90 days after written notice as
     provided under the indenture;

          (5) some events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization;

          (6) any other Event of Default provided with respect to debt
     securities of that series.

(Section 5.01)

     If an Event of Default exists with respect to any series of debt
securities, then either the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the debt securities of the series may declare the entire
principal amount of all the debt securities of that series immediately due and
payable. If the Event of Default involves events in bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization (as described in clause (5) in the paragraph above), then the
principal amount of all the debt securities of that series will automatically,
and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any
holder, become immediately due and payable. If any debt securities of a series
are issued with original issue discount, the amount of the debt securities that
will become immediately due and payable in an Event of Default will be the
portion of the principal amount specified by the terms of the debt securities.
At any time after the Trustee or the

                                        10


holders have declared an acceleration of a series of debt securities, but before
a judgment or decree for payment of money has been obtained by the Trustee, the
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of
that series may, under some circumstances, rescind and annul the acceleration.
(Section 5.02)

     Subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, the indenture
provides that the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its
rights or powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the
holders, unless the holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by
it in compliance with the holders' request or direction. (Sections 6.01 and
6.03) What will be deemed to constitute reasonable indemnity may vary depending
on what rights or powers the holders have requested or directed the Trustee to
exercise. Subject to the Trustee's right to indemnification, the holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt securities of any series will
have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
for any remedy available to the Trustee, with respect to the debt securities of
that series. (Section 5.12)

     We are required to furnish to the Trustee an annual statement by our
officers as to whether we have defaulted in the performance of our obligations
under the indenture. In the event that we are in default, we are required to
specify the nature and status of the default. (Section 10.04)

     The right of any holder to receive principal, any premium and interest
payments on the debt securities or to institute suit for the enforcement of such
payment cannot be impaired without that holder's consent. (Section 5.08)

CONVERSION RIGHTS

     We may issue debt securities that are convertible into our common stock or
other securities or property. The specific terms on which the debt securities
are convertible will be described in an applicable prospectus supplement. The
terms will include provisions as to whether conversion is mandatory or optional
and may include provisions that establish the amount of securities or property
that you will receive according to a formula based upon the market price of the
securities or property at a particular time.

GLOBAL SECURITIES

     We may issue some or all of the debt securities of a series in the form of
one or more global securities. Global securities will be deposited with a
depository identified in the applicable prospectus supplement. A global security
is a security, typically held by a depository, that represents the beneficial
interests of a number of purchasers of the security. The specific terms of the
depositary arrangement with respect to a series of debt securities will be
described in an applicable prospectus supplement.

DEFEASANCE

     The following provisions relating to defeasance and discharge of
indebtedness, or relating to defeasance of covenants in the indenture, will
apply to the debt securities of any series, or to any specified part of a
series, unless otherwise specified in a prospectus supplement. (Section 13.01)

     Defeasance and Discharge. We may discharge all of our obligations with
respect to the debt securities by depositing in trust, for the benefit of the
holders of the debt securities, money or U.S. government obligations, or both,
which will provide a sufficient

                                        11


amount of money to pay any installment of principal, premium or interest payment
and any mandatory sinking fund payment required by the debt securities on the
designated payment dates. We may defease and discharge our obligations only if,
among other things, there has been a United States Internal Revenue Service
ruling, or there has been a change in tax law, to the effect that holders of
debt securities will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the
same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit,
defeasance and discharge were not to occur. We may not, however, discharge our
obligations to exchange or register the transfer of debt securities, to replace
stolen, lost or mutilated debt securities, to maintain paying agencies or to
hold moneys for payment in trust. (Sections 13.02 and 13.04)

     Defeasance of Covenants. Under some circumstances, we may not be required
to comply with the restrictive covenants that may be described in this
prospectus or any applicable prospectus supplement. In addition, under some
circumstances, the occurrence of some Events of Default, including any that may
be described in an applicable prospectus supplement, will be deemed not to be or
result in an Event of Default. In order for this to occur, we must deposit in
trust, for the benefit of the holders of debt securities, money or U.S.
government obligations, or both, which will provide a sufficient amount of money
to pay any installment of principal, premium or interest payment and any
mandatory sinking fund payment required by the debt securities on the designated
payment dates. There must also have been, among other things, a United States
Internal Revenue Service ruling, or a change in tax law, to the effect that
holders of debt securities will be subject to Federal income tax on the same
amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if
such deposit, defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

     In the event we exercised this option with respect to any debt securities
and the debt securities were accelerated and declared due and payable as a
result of an Event of Default, the amount of money and U.S. government
obligations deposited in trust may not be sufficient to pay amounts due on the
debt securities at the time of the acceleration. In that case, we would remain
liable for any amounts still due. (Sections 13.03 and 13.04)

     Acceptable U.S. government obligations are limited under the indenture to:

          (a) any security which is

               - a direct obligation of the United States of America for the
                 payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States
                 of America is pledged, or

               - an obligation of an entity controlled or supervised by and
                 acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of
                 America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a
                 full faith and credit obligation by the United States of
                 America,

          which is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer, and

          (b) any depositary receipt issued by a bank as custodian with respect
     to any U.S. government obligation which is specified in clause (a) above
     and held by the bank for the account of the holder of the depositary
     receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or
     interest on any U.S. government obligation which is so specified and held.

                                        12


CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event which, after notice
or lapse of time or both, would become an Event or Default, the Trustee may be
deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to the debt securities for
purposes of the Trust Indenture Act. In that event, unless the Trustee is able
to eliminate the conflicting interest, the Trustee may be required to resign as
Trustee under the indenture. If the Trustee resigns, we will be required to
appoint a successor Trustee for the indenture.

GOVERNING LAW

     The debt securities and the indenture will be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     We may sell debt securities from time to time in one or more transactions.
We may sell debt securities (a) through underwriters or dealers; (b) through
agents; or (c) directly to one or more purchasers.

SALE THROUGH UNDERWRITERS

     If we use underwriters in the sale, the underwriters will acquire the debt
securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the debt
securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a
fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale.
The obligations of the underwriters to purchase the debt securities will be
subject to conditions. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all the
debt securities of a series offered by a prospectus supplement if any of such
debt securities are purchased. The underwriters may sell debt securities to or
through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of
discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters. The underwriters
may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any
discounts, concessions or commissions allowed or re-allowed or paid to dealers.

SALE THROUGH AGENTS

     We may sell debt securities through agents designated by us. Unless
indicated in the prospectus supplement, the agents have agreed to use their
reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of their
appointment.

DIRECT SALES

     We also may sell debt securities directly to purchasers without the
involvement of underwriters or agents.

GENERAL INFORMATION

     We may authorize agents, underwriters or dealers to solicit offers by
institutional investors to purchase debt securities providing for payment and
delivery on a future date specified in the prospectus supplement. Institutional
investors to which such offers may be made, when authorized, include commercial
and savings banks, insurance companies, pension funds, investment companies,
educational and charitable institutions and other institutions that are approved
by us. The obligations of any purchasers under delayed delivery and payment
arrangements will not be subject to any conditions except that

                                        13


(1) the purchase by an institution of the debt securities will not at delivery
be prohibited under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States to which
the institution is subject and (2) if the debt securities are being sold to
underwriters, we will sell to the underwriters the total principal amount of the
debt securities less the principal amount covered by the delayed delivery and
payment arrangement.

     Underwriters, dealers and agents that participate in the distribution of
the offered securities may be underwriters as defined in the Securities Act of
1933, and any discounts or commissions received by them from us and any profit
on the resale of the debt securities by them may be treated as underwriting
discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. We will identify any
underwriters or agents, and describe their compensation, in a prospectus
supplement.

     The debt securities may or may not be listed on a national securities
exchange or a foreign securities exchange. The debt securities will be a new
issue of securities with no established trading market. Any underwriters or
agents to or through whom we sell debt securities for public offering and sale
may make a market in the debt securities. However, the underwriters and agents
will not be obligated to make a market in the debt securities and may
discontinue their market-making activities at any time without notice. We cannot
provide any assurance with respect to the liquidity of the trading market for
any of the debt securities.

     We may have agreements with the underwriters, dealers and agents to
indemnify them against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, or to contribute to payments which the underwriters,
dealers or agents may be required to make.

     Underwriters, dealers and agents may engage in transactions with, or
perform services for, us or our subsidiaries in the ordinary course of their
businesses.

                                 LEGAL MATTERS

     Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, our outside legal counsel, will issue an
opinion about the legality of the debt securities for us. Any underwriters will
be advised about other issues relating to any offering of debt securities by
their own legal counsel.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

     Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation requires that our
directors and officers be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by
Delaware law.

     The General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides in general
that a director or officer of a corporation (i) shall be indemnified by the
corporation for all expenses of litigation or other legal proceedings when he is
successful on the merits, (ii) may be indemnified by the corporation for the
expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement of such litigation
(other than a derivative suit) even if he is not successful on the merits if he
acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the corporation (and, in the case of a criminal
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful), and
(iii) may be indemnified by the corporation for expenses of a derivative suit (a
suit by a stockholder alleging a breach by a director or officer of a duty owed
to the corporation), even if he is not successful on the merits, if he acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the
best interests of the corporation, provided that no such indemnification may be
made in accordance with this clause (iii) if the director or officer is adjudged
liable to the corporation, unless a court determines that, despite such
adjudication but in view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to
indemnification of such expenses. The indemnification described in clauses (ii)
and (iii) above shall be made only upon order by a court or a determination by
(a) a majority of a quorum of disinterested directors, (b) under certain
circumstances, independent legal counsel or (c) the stockholders, that
indemnification is proper because the applicable standard of conduct is met.
Expenses incurred by a director or officer in defending an action may be
advanced by the corporation prior to the final disposition of such action upon
receipt of an undertaking by such director or officer to repay such expenses if
it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified in
connection with the proceeding to which the expenses related.

     Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision
eliminating, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, director liability
for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

A. UNDERTAKING PURSUANT TO RULE 415

     We hereby undertake:

     (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

          (a) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
     Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act");

          (b) 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, except that any increase or decrease in 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) if, in the
     aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20
     percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
     "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration
     Statement;

          (c) 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(l)(a) and A(l)(b) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by us pursuant to Section 13
or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (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.

                                       II-2


     (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. UNDERTAKING REGARDING FILINGS INCORPORATING SUBSEQUENT EXCHANGE ACT DOCUMENTS
BY REFERENCE

     We hereby undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability under
the Securities Act, each filing of our annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where 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 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 the initial bona fide
offering thereof.

C. UNDERTAKING IN RESPECT OF INDEMNIFICATION

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to
the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have 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, we will, unless in the opinion
of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

D. UNDERTAKING REGARDING RULE 430A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT

     We hereby undertake that:

     (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the
information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of the
Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by us pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the
Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the Registration Statement as of
