Neuberger Berman, LLC is deemed to be a beneficial owner for purpose of
Rule 13(d) since it has shared power to make decisions whether to retain
or dispose, and in some cases the sole power to vote, the securities of
many unrelated clients.  Neuberger Berman, LLC does not, however, have any
economic interest in the securities of those clients.  The clients are the
actual owners of the securities and have the sole right to receive and the
power to direct the receipt of dividends from or proceeds from the sale of
such securities.



With regard to the shares set forth under Item 4.(c)(II), Neuberger
Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc. are deemed to be
beneficial owners for purposes of Rule 13(d) since they both have shared
power to make decisions whether to retain or dispose and vote the
securities.  Neuberger Berman, LLC and Neuberger Berman Management Inc.
serve as sub-adviser and investment manager, respectively, of Neuberger
Berman's  various Mutual Funds which hold such shares in the ordinary
course of their business and not with the purpose nor with the effect of
changing or influencing the control of the issuer.

No other Neuberger Berman, LLC advisory client has an interest of more than
5% of the issuer.

It should be further noted that the share calculation under item 4.(c)(IV)
is derived from a total combination of the shares set forth under Item
4.(c)(I and II). The remaining balance of shares, if any, are for individual
client accounts over which Neuberger Berman, LLC has shared power to dispose
but not vote shares.
