filed - i.e., each person required to sign the schedule itself including each member of a group. Do not include the name of a person required to be identified in the report but who is not a
reporting person. |
(2) |
If any of the shares beneficially owned by a reporting person are held as a member of a group and such
membership is expressly affirmed, please check row 2(a). If the reporting person disclaims membership in a group or describes a relationship with other persons but does not affirm the existence of a group, please check row 2(b) [unless a
joint filing pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1) in which case it may not be necessary to check row 2(b)]. |
(3) |
The third row is for SEC internal use; please leave blank. |
(4) |
Citizenship or Place of Organization Furnish citizenship if the named reporting person is a
natural person. Otherwise, furnish place of organization. |
(5)-(9), |
(11) Aggregate Amount Beneficially Owned By Each Reporting Person, Etc. Rows (5) through (9)
inclusive, and (11) are to be completed in accordance with the provisions of Item 4 of Schedule 13G. All percentages are to be rounded off to the nearest tenth (one place after decimal point). |

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.
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 securityholders 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.
