On the Form 3 statement filed by Mr. Albert Matter on December 6, 2005, these shares were inadvertently and incorrectly recorded as indirectly beneficially owned shares of Mr. Matter. There was a misunderstanding in regard to Mr. Matter's control of these shares and his relationship with the beneficial owners of these shares. As of the reporting date of December 6, 2005, Mr. Matter did not and does not have any "direct or indirect pecuniary interest" in these shares, as those terms are defined in Rule 16a-1(a)(2)(i) & (ii) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act"). While the owners of these shares are "immediate family members," as defined in Rule 16a-1(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the reporting date, they did not and do not share the same household as Mr. Matter, and therefore, do not create an indirect pecuniary interest for Mr. Matter.--- (CONTINUED ON FOOTNOTE 2) |

(FOOTNOTE 1 CONTINUED)
Further, as of the reporting date, Mr. Matter did not and does not control these shares in any way as a trustee or fiduciary for any of the beneficial owners of these shares. Some shares are owned by a minor child, but as of the reporting date, Mr. Matter has no custody rights, and did not and does not control these shares as a guardian, trustee, or any other type of fiduciary.
Therefore, pursuant to the foregoing and the Rules for the amendment of Form 3, the Form 3 statement filed on December 6, 2005 is hereby amended to strike and remove those shares as listed on Table 1 of this form. These shares are no longer reported as directly or indirectly beneficially owned shares of Mr. Matter. |
