  * In accordance with Securities Exchange Act Release No. 39538 (January 12,
  1998), this filing reflects the securities beneficially owned by the
  Corporate and Investment Banking business group and the Corporate
  Investments business group (collectively, "CIB") of Deutsche Bank AG and
  its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "DBAG"). This filing does
  not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any other business
  group of DBAG. Consistent with Rule 13d-4 under the Securities Exchange Act
  of 1934 ("Act"), this filing shall not be construed as an admission that
  CIB is, for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Act, the beneficial owner
  of any securities covered by the filing. Furthermore, CIB disclaims
  beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by (i) any client
  accounts with respect to which CIB or its employees have voting or
  investment discretion, or both, and (ii) certain investment entities, of
  which CIB is the general partner, managing general partner, or other
  manager, to the extent interests in such entities are held by persons other
  than CIB.

**Under the terms of a no-action letter issued by the SEC staff to Deutsche Bank
 AG on February 14, 2002, Deutsche Bank AG may report beneficial ownership for
 certain non-US subsidiaries on Schedule 13G pursuant to Rule 13d-1(b). The
 reporting person symbols provided in the Instructions to Schedule 13G have been
 used herein (see Question 12, "Type of Reporting Person") to classify the non-
 US subsidiaries eligible for 13G reporting under the SEC's no-action letter.
 In addition, the eligible non-US subsidiaries have been categorized herein
 (see Item 3) consistent with the business generally conducted by each such
 subsidiary.
