                       INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE 13G

Instructions for Cover Page

(1) 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 ruling
    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 l3d-4 (17 CFR 240.13d-4) under the Securities Exchange
     Act of 1934.

(12) Type of Reporting Person--Please classify each "reporting person"
     according to the following breakdown (see Item 3 of Schedule 13G) and
     place the appropriate symbol on the form:


                Category                                  Symbol
           Broker Dealer                                    BD
           Bank                                             BK
           Insurance Company                                IC
           Investment Company                               IV
           Investment Adviser                               IA
           Employee Benefit Plan, Pension Fund, or
                Endowment Fund                              EP
           Parent Holding Company/Control Person            HC
           Savings Association                              SA
           Church Plan                                      CP
           Corporation                                      CO
           Partnership                                      PN
           Individual                                       IN
           Other                                            OO

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.

     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 maner 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.
