*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Proceeds from the sale were contributed by the reporting person to a 401(k) plan for the benefit of the reporting person.
(2)	The purchase and sale transactions were matchable under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The reporting person had earlier agreed to pay to the Issuer, no later than the settlement of the purchase, the full amount of any profit realized in connection with such short-swing transactions, less transaction costs. As the cost of the shares purchased in each case exceeded the proceeds from the shares sold, there were no short-swing profits.
(3)	Purchase of shares by the reporting person's 401(k) plan, using contributed proceeds of sale transaction described in Note (1). (Sale and purchase of shares required because contribution of shares directly not permitted under the terms of the plan.) Shares held by the plan deemed beneficially owned by the reporting person. The total number of shares beneficially owned by the reporting person was not changed as the result of these transactions.
