Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Settlement for stock of Performance Rights that are non-derivative securities. See explanation below for further information.
(2) The Reporting Person ws awarded 516 Performance Vesting Restricted (PVR) Shares on May 5, 2004 and 984 PVR Shares on June 29, 2004,for a total of 1,500 PVR Shares following the Company's 2004 stock split. The 2004 PVR Share Awards were inappropriately reported as restricted stock awards. In fact, the 2004 PVR Share Awards constituted performance rights that are non-derivative securities. As such, no reports should have been filed until the PVR Awards are settled in stock. Reporting the initial grant resulted in an overstatement of the amount of securities beneficially owned (Column 5, Table 1) in subsequently filed reports. The Reporting Person is filing this report to: (1) properly characterize the PVR Shares as performance rights; and (ii) adjust the amount of securities beneficially owned and eliminate the overstatement.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, See Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
