    <footnotes>
        <footnote id="F1">5,823 shares were inadvertently omitted from the reporting person's original form 3.

Of the omitted shares, 5,834 are stock units held in the officer's elective deferred account and will be distributed in predetermined installments which can commence not sooner than three years after the date of deferral.  The amount of reported shares includes a 20 percent premium over grant amount based on the officer's election to defer the award.  These premium units could be forfeited if the original stock units are withdrawn prior to the third anniversary of the deferral date.</footnote>
