To Our Stockholders:
We enclose a new proxy card in place of the one previously sent to you for
use in connection with our 1994 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on May
26, 1994. The previous proxy card incorrectly identified nine, rather than eight
nominees for the Board of Directors. However, the accompanying proxy statement
dated April 26, 1994 accurately stated the identity of the eight nominees for
the Board.
If you have not voted using the old proxy card, please cast your vote using
the enclosed proxy card. If you already have voted using the old proxy card and
want to change your vote, you may do so by executing and returning the enclosed
proxy card, in which case your previous vote will be disregarded. Except as
provided in the next sentence, any votes cast using an old proxy card and not
changed, whether already received or received subsequent to this notice, will be
treated in accordance with the instructions contained therein with respect to
the eight nominees for director. However, if you voted using an old proxy card
and provided instructions for the cumulation of your votes in accordance with
the proxy statement, you must revote using a new proxy card and, if desired,
provide new instructions for cumulation of your votes.
