As appropriate, please amend your regist ration statement in response to these
comments.  You may wish to provide us with marked copies of the amendment to
expedite our review.  Please furnish a cove r letter with your amendment that keys your

We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the
disclosure in the filing to be certain that the filing includes all in formation required under
the Securities Act of 1933 and that they have  provided all information investors require
for an informed investment decision.  Since the company and its management are in possession of all facts relating to a company’ s disclosure, they are responsible for the
accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they have made.
Notwithstanding our comments, in the even t the company requests acceleration of
the effective date of the pending registration statement, it should furnish a letter, at the time of such request, acknowledging that:   ‚ should the Commission or the staff, acting purs uant to delegated authority, declare the
filing effective, it does not foreclose th e Commission from taking any action with
respect to the filing;
 ‚ the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in
declaring the filing effective,  does not relieve the company from its full responsibility
for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and
 ‚ the company may not assert staff comments a nd the declaration of effectiveness as a
defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
  In addition, please be advi sed that the Division of En forcement has access to all
information you provide to the staff of the Di vision of Corporation Finance in connection
with our review of your filing or in response to our comments on your filing.
We will consider a written request for acceleration of the effective date of the
registration statement as conf irmation of the fact that t hose requesting acceleration are
aware of their respective re sponsibilities under the S ecurities Act of 1933 and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as they rela te to the proposed public offering of the
securities specified in the above registration statement.  We will act  on the request and,
pursuant to delegated authority, grant acce leration of the effective date.
We direct your attention to Rules 46 0 and 461 regarding requesting acceleration
of a registration statement.  Please allow ad equate time after the filing of any amendment
