authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association;

          (i)  A class of equity securities of the Company
becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to
Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or

          (j)  Any action similar to any of those enumerated
above.

          The Filing Persons reserve the right, however, to
