Pursuant to a Registration Statement (the "1995 Registration Statement")
on Form S-8 (File No. 33-60335), filed on June 19, 1995, the Registrant
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"),
2,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"),
of the Registrant. The 1995 Registration Statement covered shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock-based awards granted under the
Registrant's 1989 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the "1989 Plan"). The
Registrant has amended the 1989 Plan to increase the maximum number of shares of
Common Stock issuable thereunder and has adopted the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan
(the "1997 Plan") which provides, among other things, that, upon the expiration
of the 1989 Plan, the unissued balance of shares under the 1989 Plan, up to
2,500,000 shares, shall be subsequently issuable under the 1997 Plan.
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the 1995 Registration Statement
is being filed for the purpose of transferring 1,000,000 shares to a new
Registration Statement on Form S-8 registering an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares
of Common Stock issuable pursuant to stock-based awards granted under the 1989
Plan and/or the 1997 Plan.
