Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs") will no longer report the beneficial
ownership of the securities beneficially owned by the asset management division
of Goldman Sachs (the "Asset Management Division"). The Asset Management
Division will separately report, to the extent required, its beneficial
ownership of securities.

securities beneficially owned by (i) any client accounts with respect to which
Goldman Sachs or employees of Goldman Sachs have voting or investment
discretion, or both and (ii) certain investment entities, of which a subsidiary
of GS Group or Goldman Sachs is the general partner, managing general partner or
