    1. 
    Rule as to Use of Form 
      ET

  

    
      

    

  

    

    One copy of this form 
      shall accompany all diskette or magnetic tape submissions. Diskettes or 
      magnetic tapes, regardless of the manner of delivery, should be 
      addressed:

  

    

    
ATTN: 
      DOCUMENT CONTROL - EDGAR 
U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION 
      
450 5TH STREET, N.W. 
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 
    



  

    
      

    

  

    2.
    Preparation of Diskette 
      or Magnetic Tape Submissions

  

    
      

    

  

    

    Attention is directed to 
      the EDGAR Filer Manual which contains information and procedures for 
      electronic filing.

  

    

    A.
    All files on a diskette must be in 
      the same word processing format.

  

    

    B.
    More than one submission may be sent 
      on a diskette or magnetic tape; however, each submission must be contained 
      in a single file. The Commission will assume that each file on a diskette 
      or magnetic tape contains a separate submission and will transfer all such 
      files to the EDGAR system. Therefore, the preparer should recheck all 
      files prior to sending a diskette or magnetic tape to the Commission to 
      ensure that it contains only those files intended to be sent.

  

    

    C.
    If more than one diskette or 
      magnetic tape is used, their order of processing should be indicated on 
      the external label of each diskette or magnetic tape, e.g., 1 of 3; 
      2 of 3, etc.

  

    

    D.
    Please write the CIK of the Sender 
      on the external label of each diskette or magnetic tape.

  

    

    E.
    To expedite processing of diskettes 
      or magnetic tapes, please write in large, bold letters on the envelope or 
      carton: EDGAR DISKETTE or EDGAR MAGNETIC TAPE, as 
appropriate.

  

    
      

    

  

    3.
    Preparation of 
      Form

  

    
      

    

  

    

    A.
    The form should be completed 
      carefully as this data will be used by the Commission to transfer 
      submissions from the diskette(s) or magnetic tape(s) to the EDGAR 
      system.

  

    

    B.
    The CIK and Name of Sender requested 
      in Part I should be that of the filer or filing agent, whichever prepared 
      and sent the diskette(s) or magnetic tape(s) to the 
  Commission.

  

    

    C.
    The contact person identified in 
      Part I should be the person who can respond to technical questions 
      concerning the electronic preparation of the diskette(s) or magnetic 
      tape(s).

  

    

    D.
    If more than one filer and/or more 
      than one submission is included on the diskette(s) or magnetic tape(s) 
      submitted, it is not necessary to complete a separate form for each filer 
      or submission if the information contained in Parts I, II, and III is 
      identical for all filers and submissions.

  

    
      

    

  

    4.
    Signatures

  

    
      

    

  

    

    While there are no 
      signature requirements to Form ET, each of the various electronic forms to 
      be filed on diskette or magnetic tape that accompany Form ET contains 
      certain signature requirements. Such electronic forms and other documents 
      required to be manually signed shall be in typed form. See Rule 302 of 
      Regulation S-T (§232.302 of this chapter).

  

    
      

    

  

    5.
    Application of General 
      Rules and Regulations

  

    
      

    

  

    

    The electronic filer is 
      subject to Regulation 
      S-T (Part 232 of this chapter) and the Filer Manual. 
      Attention is directed to the General Rules and Regulations under the 
      Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Trust 
      Indenture Act of 1939, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, and 
      the Investment Company Act of 1940, as modified by any electronic filing 
      provisions to such rules and regulations.
