EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment on Form 10-Q/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended May 1, 2004, which was originally filed with the SEC on June 9, 2004 (the “Original Report”). We are hereby amending and restating Item 4 as it appeared in the Original Report.

This Amendment only amends Item 4 of the Original Report as specified above. It does not affect the original financial statements and footnotes or other disclosures filed in the Original Report and does not reflect events occurring after the original filing date of June 9, 2004.

PART 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Office and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, we carried out an evaluation as of May 1, 2004, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of May 1, 2004, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

During the thirteen-week period ended May 1, 2004, there have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
