The undersigned hereby grants to James F. Rogers, as attorney-in-fact,
acting singly, full power and authority to do and perform any and all acts and
things necessary or desirable to be done in the exercise of any of the rights

attorneys-in-fact of the Company named in any such previous power of attorney is
hereby revoked. This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect
until the undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with

writing delivered to such attorney-in-fact or (b) superseded by a new power of
attorney regarding the purposes outlined herein dated as of a later date.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power of Attorney to
