(1) In addition, pursuant to Rule 416(c) under the Securities Act of 1933,      
this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate amount of interests to 
be offered or sold pursuant to the employee benefit plans described herein.     

(2) Estimated in accordance with Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act of 1933,  
solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. The computation is  
based upon the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq      
National Market on August 8, 1997 because the price at which the options to be  
granted in the future may be exercised is not currently determinable.
