to or would result in the acquisition of additional Common Stock
 by them or any of the other events described in Item 4(a)
through 4(j) of Schedule 13D.

 Offering, on the sale, disposition, distribution, hedging or other

 as are imposed on the Company. The foregoing restrictions do not
apply to certain other transfers customarily excepted.Other than as
described in this Amendment No. 1 and in the agreements and documents
 attached as exhibits hereto or incorporated herein by reference, to
 the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no other contracts,
