Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the rules
thereunder;

(2) 		do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned which
may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, Form 4 or
Form 5, or amendments thereto, and timely file such form with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority; and

(3) 		take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
