              (i)    Waddell & Reed Financial, Inc., a parent holding
                     company in accordance with Reg.
                     240.13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(G);
              (ii)   Waddell & Reed Financial Services, Inc., a parent
                     holding company in accordance with Reg.
                     240.13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(G);
              (iii)  Waddell & Reed, Inc., a broker-dealer in accordance
                     with Reg. 240.13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(A); and
              (iv)   Waddell & Reed Investment Management Company, an
                     investment advisor in accordance with Reg.
                     240.13d-1(b)(1)(ii)(E).

ITEM 4:       OWNERSHIP

              The securities reported on herein are beneficially owned by one
or more open-end investment companies or other managed accounts which are
advised or sub-advised by Waddell



& Reed Investment Management Company ("WRIMCO"), an investment advisory
subsidiary of Waddell & Reed, Inc. ("WRI"). WRI is a broker-dealer and
underwriting subsidiary of Waddell & Reed Financial Services, Inc., a parent
holding company ("WRFSI"). In turn, WRFSI is a subsidiary of Waddell & Reed
Financial, Inc., a publicly traded company ("WDR"). The investment advisory
contracts grant WRIMCO all investment and/or voting power over securities owned
by such advisory clients. The investment sub-advisory contracts grant WRIMCO
investment power over securities owned by such sub-advisory clients and, in most
cases, voting power. Any investment restriction of a sub-advisory contract does
not restrict investment discretion or power in a material manner. Therefore,
WRIMCO may be deemed the beneficial owner of the securities covered by this
statement under Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934
Act").

              WRIMCO, WRI, WRFSI and WDR are of the view that they are not
acting as a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the 1934 Act. Indirect
"beneficial ownership" is attributed to the respective parent companies solely
because of the parent companies' control relationship to WRIMCO.

             (a)    Amount beneficially owned:  1,837,500

             (b)    Percent of class:  5.2%

             (c)    Number of shares as to which the person has:

                    (i)    Sole voting power to vote or to direct the vote:

                           WDR:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRFSI:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRI:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRIMCO:  1,837,500 (direct)

                    (ii)   Shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 0

                    (iii)  Sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition
                           of:

                           WDR:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRFSI:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRI:  1,837,500 (indirect)
                           WRIMCO:  1,837,500 (direct)

                    (iv)   Shared power to dispose or to direct the
                           disposition of:  0

ITEM 5:       OWNERSHIP OF FIVE PERCENT OR LESS OF A CLASS:





              If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of
the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of
more than 5 percent of the class of securities, check the following: [ ]


ITEM 6:       OWNERSHIP OF MORE THAN FIVE PERCENT ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PERSON:

              The clients of WRIMCO, including investment companies registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and other managed accounts, have the
right to receive dividends from as well as the proceeds from the sale of such
securities.

ITEM 7:       IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE SUBSIDIARY WHICH
              ACQUIRED THE SECURITY BEING REPORTED

              ON BY THE PARENT HOLDING COMPANY:

              See Attached Exhibit 2.

ITEM 8:       IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF MEMBERS OF THE GROUP:

              Not Applicable.

ITEM 9:       NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION OF GROUP:

              Not Applicable.

belief, the securities referred to above were acquired and are held in the
