RE: Post-effective amendments to certain Form S-3 registration statements
Dear Ms. Samuel:
We are filing this letter under Rule 477 of the Securities Act of 1933 to request the withdrawal of two Form S-3 filings that were
filed yesterday with the Commission in error. The file numbers for these Form S-3s are 33-61143, 333-62246 and 333-103473. Although
securities may have been sold since yesterday under the currently-effective version of these Form S-3s, we have not sold any
securities based specifically on these erroneous filings. We apologize for any inconvenience associated with these inadvertent
filings.
Sincerely,
/s/C. Christopher Sprague
