amended, be accelerated so that the Registration Statement will become effective on February 11, 2005 or as soon thereafter as practicable.
In

the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with

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
