The SEC expects registrants to report "Earnings per share--Basic" data as the value for the (EPS-PRIMARY) tag and "Earnings per share--Diluted" data (as opposed to "EPS--Fully Diluted") as the value for the (EPS-DILUTED) tag. Queries regarding these requirements may be directed to the Office of Chief Accountants (202-942-2960) or Meg Black in the Division of Corporation Finance (202-942-2940). </FN>
