        <footnote id="F1">This amendment is filed to reflect the correct number of shares of common stock of the Company held by the reporting person following the transaction on October 3, 2006.  All Form 4s filed by the reporting person since this date understated the reporting person's direct holdings by 1,132 shares.  As a result, the number of shares the reporting person owned directly on January 30, 2007, the date of the most recent transaction, should have been 58,558 shares.</footnote>
