During the week of June 17, 2002, we participated in meetings discussing our
sale of shares of our common stock and our equity security units. Attached as
Exhibit 99.1 is a slide presentation used at various meetings with investors. It
is not filed, but furnished to comply with Regulation FD. The information
disclosed in this Item 9 Current Report on Form 8-K is not considered "filed"
for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is not
