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 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 reporting as beneficially owned in row (9)
      does not include shares as to which beneficial ownership is disclaimed
      pursuant to Rule 13d-4 (17 CFR 249.13d-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

      Investment Adviser                                              IA
      Employee Benefit Plan, Pension Fund, or Endowment Fund          EP
      Parent Holding Company/Control Person                           HC

      Other                                                           OO

Notes:

      Attach as many copies of the second part of the cover page as needed, one
reporting person per page.

      Filing person 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 the 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 retyped 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 Section 13(d), 13(b) 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 statues 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.
