               advisor in accordance with Reg. 240.13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(E).

Item 4:   Ownership

          The securities reported on herein are beneficially owned by one or
more open-end investment companies or other managed accounts which are advised
or sub-advised by Waddell & Reed Investment Management Company ("WRIMCO"), an
investment advisory subsidiary of Waddell & Reed, Inc. ("WRI").  WRI is a
broker-dealer and underwriting subsidiary of Waddell & Reed Financial Services,
Inc., a parent holding company ("WRFSI").  In turn, WRFSI is a subsidiary of
Waddell & Reed Financial, Inc., a publicly traded company ("WDR").  The
investment advisory contract grants WRIMCO all investment and/or voting power
over securities owned by such advisory clients.  The investment sub-advisory
contracts grant WRIMCO investment power over securities owned by such sub-
advisory clients and, in most cases, voting power.  Any investment restriction
of a sub-advisory contract does not restrict investment discretion or power in a
material manner.  Therefore, WRIMCO may be deemed be to the beneficial owner of
the securities covered by this statement under Rule 13d-3 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act").

          WRIMCO, WRI, WRFSI and WDR are of the view that they are not acting as
a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the 1934 Act and that they are not
otherwise required to attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of
securities held by any of them or by any persons or entities advised by WRIMCO.
"Beneficial ownership" is attributed to the parent companies solely because of
the parent company relationship to WRIMCO.

          (a)  Amount beneficially owned:  1,096,800

          (b)  Percent of class:  2.3%

          (c)  Number of shares as to which the person has:

               (i)  Sole voting power to vote or to direct the vote:

                         WDR:  0
                         WRFSI:  0
                         WRI:  0
                         WRIMCO:  1,096,800

               (ii) Shares power to vote or to direct the vote:  0

               (iii)Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:  0

               (iv) Shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of:

                         WDR:  0
                         WRFSI:  0
                         WRI:  0
                         WRIMCO:  1,096,800

Item 5:   Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:

          If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the
date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more
than 5 percent of the class of securities, check the following:   [ X]

Item 6:   Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:

          The clients of WRIMCO, including investment companies registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 and other managed accounts, have the right to
receive dividends from as well as the proceeds from the sale of such securities.

Item 7:   Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the
Security  Being Reported on By the Parent Holding Company:

          See Attached Exhibit 2.

Item 8:   Identification and Classification of Members of the Group:

Item 10:  Certification:

By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the
securities referred to above were acquired and are held in the ordinary course
of business and were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with
the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of the
