Dear Fellow Stockholder:

outstanding shares of Common Stock, it is important that your shares are
represented.
Your Board of Directors strongly recommends that you vote, "FOR" approval of
all proposals on the meeting agenda.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please sign, date and
mail the enclosed duplicate proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.
Thank you for your cooperation and continued support.
