ITEM 3.

ITEM 4.
     Hambrecht & Quist Capital Management Incorporated ("HQCM") disclaims any
     beneficial interest in the shares reported in this Schedule 13G.
     Moreover, HQCM is of the view that the client accounts that it manages
     are not acting as a "group" for purposes of Section 13(d) under the
     Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act") and that it and
     such clients are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the
     "beneficial ownership" of securities "beneficially owned" under Rule
     13d-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act. Therefore, HQCM is of the view
     that the shares held in such accounts should not be aggregated for
     purposes of Section 13(d). However, HQCM is making this filing on a
     voluntary basis as if all the shares are beneficially owned by HQCM on a
     joint basis.

     1,700,000 shares of Common stock beneficially owned

     in any transaction having such purposes or effect.

     After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
     certify that the information set forth in this statement is true,
     complete and correct.
