       POLICIES AND PROCEDURES THAT:

       o   Encourage and reward professional integrity in the financial
           organization, by eliminating inhibitions and barriers to responsible
           behavior such as coercion, fear of reprisal, or alienation from the
           financial organization or the enterprise itself.

       o   Prohibit and eliminate the appearance or occurrence of conflicts
           between what is in the best interest of the enterprise and what could
           result in material personal gain for a member of the financial
           organization, including Senior Financial Officers.

       o   Provide a mechanism for members of the finance organization to inform
           senior management of deviations in practice from policies and
           procedures governing honest and ethical behavior.

       o   Demonstrate their personal support for such polices and procedures
           through communication reinforcing these ethical standards throughout
           the finance organization.

II. Financial Records and Periodic Reports

       Senior Financial Officers will establish and manage the enterprise
       transaction and reporting systems and procedures to ensure that:

       o   Business transactions are properly authorized and recorded on the
           Company's books and records in accordance with Generally Accepted
           Accounting Principles (GAAP) and established company financial
           policy.

       o   The retention or proper disposal of Company records is accordance
           with established enterprise financial policies and applicable legal
           and regulatory requirements.

       o   Periodic financial communications and reports are delivered in a
           manner that facilitates clarity of content and meaning so that
           readers and users can reasonably quickly and accurately determine
           their significance and consequences.



ILL.   COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

       Senior Financial Officers will establish and maintain mechanisms to:

           the operation of the finance organization and the enterprise
           generally.

       o   Monitor the compliance of the finance organization with applicable
           federal, state or local statute, regulation or administrative rule.
