Notes:
Attach as many copies of the second part of the cover page as are needed, one reporting person per
page.
Filing persons may, in order to avoid unnecessary duplication, answer items on the schedules
(Schedule 13D, 13G or 14D-1) by appropriate cross references to an item or items on the cover
page(s). This approach may only be used where the cover page item or items provide all the
disclosure required by the schedule item. Moreover, such a use of a cover page item will result in
the
item becoming a part of the schedule and accordingly being considered as filed for purposes of
Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section
of the Act.
Reporting persons may comply with their cover page filing requirements by filing either completed
copies of the blank forms available from the Commission, printed or typed facsimiles, or computer
printed facsimiles, provided the documents filed have identical formats to the forms prescribed in the Commissions regulations and meet existing
Securities Exchange Act rules as to such matters as clarity and size (Securities Exchange Act Rule
12b-12).
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLYING WITH SCHEDULE 13G
Under Sections 13(d), 13(g), and 23 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and
regulations thereunder, the Commission is authorized to solicit the information required to be
supplied by this schedule by certain security holders of certain issuers.
Page 3 of 6 pages
Disclosure of the information specified in this schedule is mandatory, except for I.R.S.
identification numbers, disclosure of
which is voluntary. The information will be used for the primary purpose of determining and
disclosing the holdings of certain
beneficial owners of certain equity securities. This statement will be made a matter of public
record. Therefore, any information
given will be available for inspection by any member of the public.
Because of the public nature of the information, the Commission can use it for a variety of purposes,
including referral to other
governmental authorities or securities self-regulatory organizations for investigatory purposes or
in connection with litigation
involving the Federal securities laws or other civil, criminal or regulatory statutes or
provisions. I.R.S. identification numbers,
if furnished, will assist the Commission in identifying security holders and, therefore, in
promptly processing statements of
beneficial ownership of securities.
Failure to disclose the information requested by this schedule, except for I.R.S. identification
numbers, may result in civil or criminal action against the persons involved for violation of the Federal securities laws and rules
promulgated thereunder.
