Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(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)	Withdrawal of shares from a Voting Trust pursuant to Rule 16b-8. Following withdrawal from the voting trust, the shares were held in a family partnership and remained indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. The transactions involved a change in the form of indirect beneficial ownership and did not constitute an acquisition or disposition of shares by the Reporting Person.
(2)	Interests held by family trusts, partnerships and corporation. The filing of this Form should not be deemed as an admission that the Reporting Person is, for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise, the beneficial owner of these securities.
(3)	The number of shares reported as beneficially owned indirectly by the Reporting Person, and the number of shares reported as beneficially owned directly, have been adjusted from the amount reported on the Reporting Person's most recent Form 4 to reflect a change in the form of ownership of 905,552 shares in transactions exempt pursuant to Rule 16a-13.

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