         ------------
         On July 21, 1994, the Registrant's board of directors
         voted to approve a 3-for-2 stock split on shares of common
         stock.  The stock split, in the form of a stock dividend,
         will be paid on August 31, 1994 to shareholders of record as
         of August 1, 1994.  The par value of the common stock will
         remain unchanged at $.0625 per share.  Cash payments will be
         made in lieu of issuing fractional shares.  The cash payment
         for fractional shares will be based on the average of the
         closing bid and asked prices of the common stock as reported
         by NASDAQ on the record date, August 1, 1994.
