Explanatory Note:
The Press Release attached as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K/A has been
revised from the Press Release furnished to the Securities and Exchange
Commission on October 19, 2004, to reflect the impact of a balance sheet
reclassification between "Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities" and
"Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" in the amount of $7,243,000 at
September 30, 2004. The reclassification followed the discovery of an
inadvertent error in the accounting for certain income tax payments made during
the third quarter of 2004. As revised, the Press Release properly reflects these
payments.
