Explanatory Note:

On April 29, 2005, the  registrant  filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report

typographical  error  contained  therein.  The filing  incorrectly  referred  to

Article II. The text of the Form 8-K is restated  below and the exhibit  thereto
is filed herewith.

     appeal or if such person is  nominated by a person who would not qualify as
