ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Not Applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL
None.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
The Registrant's amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the "Certificate") and amended and restated bylaws (the "Bylaws") provide that the Registrant will indemnify its directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits the Certificate from limiting the liability of the Registrant's directors for the following:
| |
• | breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, |
| |
• | acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, |
| |
• | unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions, and |
| |
• | any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. |
If Delaware law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director, then the liability of the Registrant's directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as so amended. The Certificate does not eliminate a director's duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies, such as injunctive or other forms of nonmonetary relief, remain available under Delaware law. This provision also does not affect a director's responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or other state or federal
laws. Under the Bylaws, the Registrant is empowered to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers, employees and other agents and to purchase insurance on behalf of any person whom the Registrant is required or permitted to indemnify.
In addition to the indemnification required in the Certificate and the Bylaws, the Registrant has entered into agreements to indemnify our directors and executive officers, and other employees as determined by the Registrant's board of directors, against expenses and liabilities to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. These agreements also provide, subject to certain exceptions, for indemnification for related expenses including, among others, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. The Registrant believes that the provisions in the Certificate, the Bylaws and the indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers. The Registrant also maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance to cover liabilities its directors and officers may incur in connection with their services to the Registrant.
ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED
Not Applicable.

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 (the "1933 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 this 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 clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement;
2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 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; and
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 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference into 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 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification foregoing provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, 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 Oakland, State of California, on this 15th day of February 2017.
