                which there have been no amendments or changes.


                                      NOTE

In answering any item in this Statement of Eligibility which relates to matters
 peculiarly within the knowledge of the obligor and its directors or officers,
    the trustee has relied upon information furnished to it by the obligor.

Inasmuch as this Form T-1 is filed prior to the ascertainment by the trustee of
all facts on which to base responsive answers to Item 2, the answer to said Item
                      are based on incomplete information.

Item 2, may, however, be considered as correct unless amended by an amendment to
                                 this Form T-1.

 Pursuant to General Instruction B, the trustee has responded to Items 1, 2 and
16 of this form since to the best knowledge of the trustee as indicated in Item
13, the obligor is not in default under any indenture under which the applicant
                                  is trustee.
