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 14D1) 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. 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.
