        electronic filings with the SEC of reports required by Section 16(a)  of
        the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any rule or
        regulation of the SEC;

        undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute
        any such Form 3, 4, or 5, complete and execute any amendment or

        exchange or similar authority; and

    4.  take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with
        the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of
        benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
        undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such
        attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power of
        Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
        conditions as such attorney-in- fact may approve in such attorney-in-
        facts discretion.

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power
and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever
requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights
