In accordance with an undertaking made by the Registrant in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the shares of Common Stock registered under the Registration Statements that remain unsold at the termination of the offerings, the Registrant hereby removes from registration the shares of Common Stock registered but remaining unsold under the Registration Statements as of the date hereof. Each Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.
