          Because voting and investment decisions concerning the
above securities may be made by or in conjunction with Hambrecht
& Quist Venture Partners ("H&Q Venture Partners"), H&Q Venture
Partners, LLC, Hambrecht & Quist California ("H&Q California")
and Hambrecht & Quist Group ("H&Q Group"), each of the reporting
persons may be deemed a member of a group that shares voting and
dispositive power over all of the above securities.  Although the
reporting persons are reporting such securities as if they were
members of a group, the filing of this Schedule shall not be
construed as an admission by any reporting person that it is a
beneficial owner of any securities other than those directly held
by such reporting person.

          Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" in Rule
13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, it is also
possible that the individual general partners, directors,
executive officers, members, and/or managers of the foregoing
entities might be deemed the "beneficial owners" of some or all
of the securities to which this Schedule relates in that they
might be deemed to share the power to direct the voting or
disposition of such securities.  Neither the filing of this
Schedule nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an
admission that any of such individuals is, for any purpose, the
beneficial owner of any of the securities to which this Schedule
relates, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

          William R. Hambrecht previously reported his beneficial
ownership of Issuer securities as a member of a group that
included the foregoing reporting persons.  However, Mr. Hambrecht
is no longer a member of such group.  Mr. Hambrecht was
previously affiliated with the foregoing reporting persons,
including as a director and officer of H&Q Group and H&Q
California, and as one of the two general partners of H&Q Venture
Partners.  Mr. Hambrecht resigned his positions from H&Q Group
and H&Q California as of January 1, 1998, and he withdrew as a
general partner of H&Q Venture Partners as of April 3, 1998.
Accordingly, Mr. Hambrecht is not now a beneficial owner of the

securities reported in this Schedule 13G, and the reporting
persons are not now beneficial owners of the securities owned by
Mr. Hambrecht.

          This Schedule does not include shares of Common Stock,
if any, held by Hambrecht & Quist LLC in its trading account if
it is a market maker in the Issuer's Common Stock.

Item 5.   Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.
          
          Not applicable.

Item 6.   Ownership of More Than Five Percent on Behalf of
          Another Person.
          
          Not applicable.

Item 7.   Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary
          Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the
          Parent Holding Company.
          
          Not applicable.

Item 8.   Identification and Classification of Members of the
          Group.
          
          Not applicable.

Item 9.   Notice of Dissolution of Group.
          
          Not applicable.

Item 10.  Certification.
          
          Not applicable.
