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 TO) 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
Commission's regulations and meet existing Securities Exchange Act rules as to
such matters as clarity and size (Securities Exchange Act Rule 12b-12).
