<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">This Schedule 13G
is being filed by the TCW Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (&#147;TCW&#148;), on behalf
of itself and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, which collectively
constitute The TCW Group, Inc. business unit (the &#147;TCW Business Unit&#148; or the &#147;Reporting
Person&#148;).&#160; The TCW Business Unit is
primarily engaged in the provision of investment management services.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As of July 6,
2001, the ultimate parent company of TCW is Soci&#233;t&#233; G&#233;n&#233;rale, S.A., a
corporation formed under the laws of France (&#147;SG&#148;).&#160; The principal business of SG is acting as a
holding company for a global financial services group, which includes certain
distinct specialized business units that are independently operated, including
the TCW Business Unit.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">SG, for purpose of
the federal securities laws, may be deemed ultimately to control TCW and the
TCW Business Unit.&#160; SG, its executive
officers and directors, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (including all
business units except the TCW Business Unit), may beneficially own shares of
the securities of the issuer to which this schedule relates (the &#147;Shares&#148;) and
such shares are not reported in this statement.&#160;
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) Release
No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), and due to the separate management and
independent operation of its business units, SG disclaims beneficial ownership
of Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person.&#160; The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial
ownership of Shares beneficially owned by SG and any of SG&#146;s other business
units.</font></p>
