1.    execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's capacity as an officer and/or director of Applied,
Forms 3, 4 or 5 and in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

2.    do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete
the execution of any such Form 3, 4 or 5 and timely file such form with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission

3.    take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the foregoing which, in the opinion of such

The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do and perform any and every act and
