agreement, members of the Johnson family may be deemed, under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, to form a controlling group with respect to

Partnerships controlled predominantly by members of the
family of Edward C. Johnson 3d, Chairman of FMR LLC and FIL, or trusts for
their benefit, own shares of FIL voting stock. While the percentage of
total voting power represented by these shares may fluctuate as a result of
changes in the total number of shares of FIL voting stock outstanding from
time to time, it normally represents more than 25% and less than 50% of the
total votes which may be cast by all holders of FIL voting stock. FMR LLC
and FIL are separate and independent corporate entities, and their Boards
of Directors are generally composed of different individuals.
FMR LLC and FIL are of the view that they are not acting as
a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "1934" Act) and that they are not otherwise required to
attribute to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities
"beneficially owned" by the other corporation within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act. Therefore, they are of the view that
the shares held by the other corporation need not be aggregated for
purposes of Section 13(d). However, FMR LLC is making this filing on a
voluntary basis as if all of the shares are beneficially owned by FMR LLC
and FIL on a joint basis.
FIL has sole dispositive power over 0 shares owned by the
International Funds. FIL has sole power to vote or direct the voting of
8,170 shares and no power to vote or direct the voting of 5,130 shares of
