         Inc. (the Company), Forms 3, 4, and 5 in accordance with Section
         16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder,
         and any other forms or reports the undersigned may be required to file
         in connection with the undersigneds ownership, acquisition, or
         disposition of securities of the Company;

     (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, 4, or 5, or other form or report, and timely file such form
         or report with the United States 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
         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, including without limitation, the completion and signing
         of any document that may be required to obtain EDGAR codes or any
         other required filing codes on behalf of the undersigned, it being
         understood that the documents executed by such attorney-in-fact on
         behalf of the undersigned pursuant to the 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-facts 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,
