	or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item

	herein.

	The Sit Entities intend to review their investment in the Issuer's Shares on

	management, the Board of Directors and shareholders concerning, among other
	things, the Issuer's performance, the market prices of the Issuer's Shares

	strategy and the Issuer's portfolio holdings.

	owner of 1,817,633 Shares held in client accounts which represent 42.96%
	of the Issuer's outstanding Shares. Each of the Sit Entities may be deemed
	to have shared power to vote and dispose of such Shares.  However, none of
