istrant's option, be incorporated by reference from the registrant's annual report to security holders furnished to the
Commission pursuant to Rule 14a-3(b) or Rule 14c-3(a) or from the registrant's annual report to security holders,

trant's definitive proxy statement (filed or required to be filed pursuant to Regulation 14A) or definitive information
statement (filed or to be filed pursuant to Regulation 14C) which involves the election of directors, if such definitive
proxy statement or information statement is filed with the Commission not later than 120 days after the end of the

(? 229.401(b) of this chapter).

However, the registrant's attention is directed to Rule 12b-23(e) (17 CFR 240.12b-23(e)) regarding the specific
disclosure required in the report concerning information incorporated by reference. When the registrant combines
all of the information in Parts I and II of this Form (Items 1 through 9A) by incorporation by reference from the
registrant's annual report to security holders and all of the information in Part III of this Form (Items 10 through
14) by incorporating by reference from a definitive proxy statement or information statement involving the election
of directors, then, notwithstanding General Instruction C(1), this Form shall consist of the facing or cover page,
those sections incorporated from the annual report to security holders, the proxy or information statement, and the

certain item of required disclosure are separated within the combined report, an appropriate cross-reference should
be made. If the information required by Part III of Form 10-K is omitted by virtue of General Instruction G, a defini-
tive proxy or information statement shall be filed.
(2) The cover page and the required signatures are included. As appropriate, a cross-reference sheet should be filed
indicating the location of information required by the items of the Form.
(3) If an electronic filer files any portion of an annual report to security holders in combination with the required in-
formation of Form 10-K, as provided in this instruction, only such portions filed in satisfaction of the Form 10-K
requirements shall be filed in electronic format.
