INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE 13G

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

pursuant to Rule 13d-4 (17 CFR 240.13d-4] under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

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 Commissions
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 3 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.
