    In making the decision to withdraw the Securities from listing and 
registration at this time, the Company has cited the limited number of 
registered holders of the Securities. The Company also notes that it is 
not obligated under the indenture under which the Securities were 
issued or under any other documents to maintain the Securities' listing 
on the NYSE or any other exchange. The Company believes that the 
delisting of the Securities should not have a material impact on the 
holders of the Securities. The Company has stated that it will use 
reasonable efforts to obtain market makers for the Securities.
    Additionally, the Company notes that its Common Stock, $.05 par 
value, is currently and shall remain registered pursuant to section 
12(g) of the Act.\4\ Accordingly, the company's obligation to file 
reports with the commission pursuant to section 13 of the Act \5\ will 
remain after the proposed withdrawal of
