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).
(10)
Check if the aggregate amount reported as
beneficially owned 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.
(12)
Type of Reporting Person-Please classify each
"reporting person" according to the
following breakdown (see Item 3 of Schedule

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.
