      The undersigned acknowledges that:

          a) This Limited Power of Attorney authorizes, but does not require,
             the Attorney-in-Fact to act at his or her discretion on

             requirements of Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act, any
             liability of the undersigned for any failure to comply with such

        The undersigned hereby grants to the Attorney-in-Fact full power and
authority to do and perform each and every act and thing requisite, necessary
or convenient to be done in connection with the foregoing, as fully, to all
intents and purposes, as the undersigned might or could do in person, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that the Attorney-in-Fact, or his or her
substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by authority
of this Limited Power of Attorney.

        This Limited Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect
