any form. These general requirements should be carefully read and observed in the preparation and filing of reports on this
form.
2.	 Particular attention is directed to Regulation 12B which contains general requirements regarding matters such as the kind

a document or statement containing information meeting some or all of the requirements of Part I of this form, the information

holders incorporated by reference shall be filed as an exhibit in electronic format, as required by Item 601(b)(13) of Regulation

certain item of required disclosure are separated within the combined report, an appropriate cross-reference should be made.

the Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to the other provisions of the
Act.

deemed filed for the purpose of Section 18 of the Act; except that, where information presented in response to Item 1 or 2

portion of Part I (or exhibit thereto) consisting of the information required by Part II shall be deemed so filed.

G. Signature and Filing of Report.
If the report is filed in paper pursuant to a hardship exemption from electronic filing (see Item 201 et seq. of Regulation S-T (17
CFR 232.201 et seq.), three complete copies of the report, including any financial statements, exhibits or other papers or documents filed
as a part thereof, and five additional copies which need not include exhibits must be filed with the Commission. At least one complete
copy of the report, including any financial statements, exhibits or other papers or documents filed as a part thereof, must be filed with
each exchange on which any class of securities of the registrant is registered. At least one complete copy of the report filed with the
Commission and one such copy filed with each exchange must be manually signed on the registrant’s behalf by a duly authorized
officer of the registrant and by the principal financial or chief accounting officer of the registrant. (See Rule 12b-11(d) (17 CFR 240.12b11(d).) Copies not manually signed must bear typed or printed signatures. In the case where the principal executive officer, principal
financial officer or chief accounting officer is also duly authorized to sign on behalf of the registrant, one signature is acceptable
provided that the registrant clearly indicates the dual responsibilities of the signatory.
H. Omission of Information by Certain Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries.
If on the date of the filing of its report on Form 10-Q, the registrant meets the conditions specified in paragraph (1) below, then
such registrant may omit the information called for in the items specified in paragraph (2) below.
1.

Conditions for availability of the relief specified in paragraph (2) below:
a.	 All of the registrant’s equity securities are owned, either directly or indirectly, by a single person which is a reporting

as applicable;

within thirty days, with respect to any indebtedness of the registrant or its subsidiaries, and there has not been any
material default in the payment of rentals under material long-term leases; and
c.	 There is prominently set forth, on the cover page of the Form 10-Q, a statement that the registrant meets the conditions
set forth in General Instruction H(1)(a) and (b) of Form 10-Q and is therefore filing this form with the reduced disclosure
format.

in the preceding fiscal year. Explanations of material changes should include, but not be limited to, changes in the various
elements which determine revenue and expense levels such as unit sales volume, prices charged and paid, production
levels, production cost variances, labor costs and discretionary spending programs. In addition, the analysis should
include an explanation of the effect of any changes in accounting principles and practices or method of application that
have a material effect on net income as reported.

cured within 30 days, with respect to any class of preferred stock of the registrant which is registered or which ranks prior
to any class of registered securities, or with respect to any class of preferred stock of any significant subsidiary of the
registrant, give the title of the class and state the nature of the arrearage or delinquency. In the case of an arrearage in the

corresponding information with respect to such submission shall be furnished. The solicitation of any authorization or
consent (other than a proxy to vote at a stockholders’ meeting) with respect to any matter shall be deemed a submission
of such matter to a vote of security holders within the meaning of this item.
