INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE 13G
INSTRUCTIONS FOR COVER PAGE
(1) Names and Social Security 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 are also
requested to furnish their Social Security or 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 such membership is expressly affirmed, please
check row 2(a). If the membership in a group is disclaimed or the
reporting person describes a relationship with other persons but does not
affirm the existence of a group, please check row 2(b) [unless a joint
filing pursuant to Rule 13d-1(e)(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 reported as beneficially owned in row (9)
does not include shares as to which beneficial ownership is disclaimed
pursuant to Rule 13d-4 [17 CFR 240.13d-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
Insurance Company IC
Investment Company IV
Investment Adviser IA
Employee Benefit Plan, Pension Fund,
or Endowment Fund EP
Parent Holding Company HC
Corporation CO
Partnership PN
Individual IN
Other OO
Notes:
Attach as many copies of the second part of the cover page as are needed,
one reporting person per page.
Filing persons 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 that 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 typed 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 Sections 13(d), 13(g), and 23 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and the rules and regulations thereunder, the Commission is authorized to
solicit 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 Social Security or 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.
Page 4 of 8 pages
<PAGE> 5
Because of the public nature of the information, the Commission can utilize
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 statutes or provisions. Social
Security or 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 Social Security or 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.
