Item 5.        Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:
               This statement is being filed to report the fact, that as of 
               the date hereof, Neuberger Berman, LLC has ceased to be the 
               beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of
               securities.
Item 6.        Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another:



Neuberger Berman, LLC is deemed to be a beneficial owner for purpose of 
Rule 13(d) since it has shared power to make decisions whether to retain 
or dispose, and in some cases the sole power to vote, the securities of 
many unrelated clients.  Neuberger Berman, LLC does not, however, have any 
economic interest in the securities of those clients.  The clients are the 
actual owners of the securities and have the sole right to receive and the 
power to direct the receipt of dividends from or proceeds from the sale of 
such securities.



 
With regard to the shares set forth under Item 4.(c)(II), Neuberger 
Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. are deemed to be 
beneficial owners for purposes of Rule 13(d) since they both have shared 
power to make decisions whether to retain or dispose and vote the 
securities.  Neuberger Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. 
serve as sub-adviser and investment manager, respectively, of Neuberger 
Berman's  various Mutual Funds which hold such shares in the ordinary 
course of their business and not with the purpose nor with the effect of 
changing or influencing the control of the issuer.

No other Neuberger Berman, LLC advisory client has an interest of more than 
5% of the issuer.

It should be further noted that the share calculation under item 4.(c)(IV) 
is derived from a total combination of the shares set forth under Item 
4.(c)(I and II). The remaining balance of shares, if any, are for individual 
client accounts over which Neuberger Berman, LLC has shared power to dispose 
but not vote shares.
