Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The rules adopted in Release No. 33-9136 will allow shareholders to more fully exercise their rights to nominate directors. The increase in the number of Schedule 13G filings is based on the Commission’s expectation that some shareholders will aggregate their holdings for purposes of meeting the eligibility thresholds in Rule 14a-11. The Commission anticipates that some groups of shareholders will exceed the 5% threshold and, therefore, be required to file a Schedule 13G. The rules will result in an increase of 87 burden hours and an increase in the cost burden of $104,160 for services of outside professionals.
