SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10%
of the Company's common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC"). Executive officers, directors and 10% shareholders are required
by the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all Forms 3, 4 and 5 that
they file.
Based solely on the Company's review of the copies of such forms it
has received and written representations from certain reporting persons that
they were not required to file a Form 5 for specified fiscal years, the
Company believes that all of its executive officers, directors and greater
than 10% shareholders have complied with all of the filing requirements
applicable to them with respect to transactions during 1998.
