Pursuant to its Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No.

Stock to be offered pursuant to the Registrant's 1996 Consolidated Equity
Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Because the maximum number of shares currently
authorized for issuance under the Plan is only 650,000 shares, the Registrant
hereby removes from registration 115,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock.
