(4) take any other action of any type whatsoever

in connection with the foregoing which, in the

opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit

to, in the best interest of, or legally required

by, the undersigned, it being understood that the

documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on

behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power

of Attorney shall be in such form and shall

contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-

in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-fact's

discretion.



The undersigned hereby grants to each such

attorney-in-fact full power and authority to do

and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever

requisite, necessary, or proper to be done in the

exercise of any of the rights and powers herein

granted, as fully to all intents and all purposes

The termination of any attorney-in-fact's

employment by the Company, however caused, shall

the powers and authorities herein granted to

any other party.



This Power of Attorney shall remain in full

force and effect until the undersigned is no
