Explanation of Responses: |
Remarks:
This Form 4 is filed solely to amend the reporting person's Form 4 filed on 12/3/2009. Said Form 4 inadvertently overstated the amount of shares beneficially owned by the reporting person following the reported transaction by 6,000 shares. Shares reported as beneficially owned are being corrected by this amended Form 4. No new transactions or other changes are being reported via this filing. |
