Act of 1934 (``Act'')\1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d) thereunder, \2\ to withdraw

    The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with the 
Rules of the BSE that govern the removal of securities from listing and 
registration on the Exchange. In making the decision to withdraw the 
Security from listing and registration on the BSE, the Issuer 
considered the relative liquidity provided by the BSE versus other 
securities exchanges and the cost associated with maintaining multiple 
listings. The Issuer stated in its application that the Security has 
been listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market since July 27, 1998. The 
Issuer represented that it will maintain its listing on the Nasdaq 
SmallCap Market.
    The Issuer's application relates solely to the Security's 
withdrawal from listing on the BSE and from registration under section 
12(b) of the Act\3\ and shall not affect its obligation to be 
registered under section 12(g) of the Act.\4\

letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, NW., Washington, DC 20549-0609, facts bearing upon 
whether the application has been made in accordance with the rules of 
the BSE and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission for 
the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the information 
submitted to it, will issue an order granting the application after the 
date mentioned above, unless the Commission determines to order a 
hearing on the matter.
