at any time and from time to time may acquire additional
Shares or dispose of any or all of its Shares depending
upon an ongoing evaluation of the investment in the

Reporting Person has made a determination regarding
a maximum or minimum number of Shares which it
may hold at any point in time.

value of their investment in the Company, the
Reporting Persons have and may engage in communications
with one or more shareholders of the Company,
one or more officers of the Company, one or more members
of the board of directors of the Company and/or potential
investors in the Company regarding the
Company, including but not limited to its operations.
Except to the extent the foregoing may be deemed
a plan or proposal, none of the Reporting Persons has
any plans or proposals which relate to, or could result
in, any of the matters referred to
PAGE
<PAGE>
in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of
