<P style="font-size: 10pt" align="center"><U>POWER OF ATTORNEY</U>

<P style="text-indent: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">Know all by these

Forms 3, 4 and 5 in accordance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

<P style="margin-left: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">(2)&nbsp;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&nbsp;3, 4 or 5,
complete and execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and timely file such
form with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any stock
exchange or similar authority; and

<P style="margin-left: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">(3)&nbsp;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&#8217;s discretion.

<P style="text-indent: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">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 purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally
present, with full power of substitution or revocation, hereby ratifying and
confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-infact&#8217;s
substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of
this Power of Attorney and the rights and powers herein granted. The
undersigned acknowledges that the above-named attorneys-in-fact, in serving in
such capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not assuming, nor is the

with Section&nbsp;16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

<P style="text-indent: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">This Power of Attorney
shall remain in full force and effect until the undersigned is no longer
required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with respect to the undersigned&#8217;s
holdings of and transactions in securities issued by the Company, unless
earlier revoked by the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to the
above-named attorneys-in-fact.

<P style="text-indent: 4%; font-size: 10pt" align="left">IN WITNESS WHEREOF the
undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to be executed as of this 23rd
day of January, 2012.
