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.

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 Section 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 the 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 3 of 6 pages
<PAGE>
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.
