Instructions for Cover Page
(l) Names and I.R.S. Identification Numbers of Reporting Persons-Furnish
the full legal name of each person for whom the report is filed-i.e.,
each person required to sign the schedule itself-including each member of
a group. Do not include the name of a person required to be identified in
the report but who is not a reporting person. Reporting persons that are
entities are also requested to furnish their I.R.S. identification numbers,
although disclosure of such numbers is voluntary, not mandatory
(see 'SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLYING WITH SCHEDULE 13G' below).
(2) If any of the shares beneficially owned by a reporting person are held
as a member of a group and that membership is expressly affirmed, please
check row 2(a).
If the reporting person disclaims membership in a group or describes a
relationship with other persons but does not affirm the existence of a
group, please check row 2(b) [unless it is a joint filing pursuant to
Rule 13d-1(k)(1) in which case it may not be necessary to check row 2(b)].
(3) The third row is for SEC internal use; please leave blank.
(4) Citizenship or Place of Organization-Furnish citizenship if the named
reporting person is a natural person. Otherwise, furnish place of
organization.
(5)-(9), (11) Aggregate Amount Beneficially Owned By Each Reporting
Person, Etc.-Rows (5) through (9) inclusive, and (11) are to be
completed in accordance with the provisions of Item 4 of Schedule 13G.
All percentages are to be rounded off to the nearest tenth (one place
after decimal point).
(10) Check if the aggregate amount reported as beneficially owned in row
(9) does not include shares as to which beneficial ownership is disclaimed
pursuant to Rule 13d-4 (17 CFR 240.13d-4] under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934.
(12) Type of Reporting Person-Please classify each 'reporting person'

Notes:
Attach as many copies of the second part of the cover page as are needed,
one reporting person per page. Filing persons may, in order to avoid
unnecessary duplication, answer items on the schedules (Schedule 13D, 13G
or 14D-1) by appropriate cross references to an item or items on the cover
page(s). This approach may only be used where the cover page item or items
provide all the disclosure required by the schedule item. Moreover, such a
use of a cover page item will result in the item becoming a part of the
schedule and accordingly being considered as 'filed' for purposes of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the
liabilities of that section of the Act.
Reporting persons may comply with their cover page filing requirements by
filing either completed copies of the blank forms available from the
Commission, printed or typed facsimiles, or computer printed facsimiles,
provided the documents filed have identical formats to the forms
prescribed in the Commission's regulations and meet existing Securities
Exchange Act rules as to such matters as clarity and size (Securities
Exchange Act Rule 12b-12).
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLYING WITH SCHEDULE 13G
Under Sections 13(d), 13(g), and 23 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and the rules and regulations thereunder, the Commission is authorized to
solicit the information required to be supplied by this schedule by
certain security holders of certain issuers.
Page 4 of 6 pages
Disclosure of the information specified in this schedule is mandatory,
except for I.R.S. identification numbers, disclosure of which is voluntary.
The information will be used for the primary purpose of determining and
disclosing the holdings of certain beneficial owners of certain equity
securities. This statement will be made a matter of public record.
Therefore, any information given will be available for inspection by any
member of the public.
Because of the public nature of the information, the Commission can use it
for a variety of purposes, including referral to other governmental
authorities or securities self-regulatory organizations for investigatory
purposes or in connection with litigation involving the Federal securities
laws or other civil, criminal or regulatory statutes or provisions. I.R.S.
identification numbers, if furnished, will assist the Commission in
identifying security holders and, therefore, in promptly processing
statements of beneficial ownership of securities.
Failure to disclose the information requested by this schedule, except for
I.R.S. identification numbers, may result in civil or criminal action
against the persons involved for violation of the Federal securities
laws and rules promulgated thereunder.
