INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE 13G
Instructions for Cover Page
(l) Names and I.R.S. Identification Numbers of Reporting
Persons-Furnish the full legal name of each person for whom the
report is 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. Reporting persons that are entities are also
requested to furnish their I.R.S. identification numbers, although
disclosure of such numbers is voluntary, not mandatory (see
"SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLYING WITH SCHEDULE 13G" below).
(2) If any of the shares beneficially owned by a reporting person
are held as a member of a group and that 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 it is a joint filing pursuant to Rule 13d1(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).

in row (9) does not include shares as to which beneficial ownership
is disclaimed pursuant to Rule 13d-4 (17 CFR 240.13d-4] under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

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 14D1) 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).
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 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.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This website contains forward-looking statements that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business, and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Such forward-looking statements may include words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "plan," "target," "strategy," "continue," "may," "will," "should," variations of such words, or other words and terms of similar meaning. All forward-looking statements reflect our best judgment and are based on several factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the risks as identified in the "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business" sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our most recent fiscal year, and other risks as identified from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports. Forward-looking statements are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we do not have, and expressly disclaim, any obligation to publicly release any updates or any changes in our expectations, or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any mergers, acquisitions, or other business combinations that had not been completed as of the date of this filing.
