Subject:  Update on the Offer to Exchange Outstanding Stock Options


As described in the materials distributed to you earlier this month, employees
wishing to participate in the Offer to Exchange Outstanding Stock Options must
complete an Election Form. There are two developments related to this form that
we need to tell you about:

     1)   As expected, the Securities and Exchange Commission reviewed our
          filings related to the program. Based on their comments, we have
          updated the Election Form to eliminate the requirement that you read
          the Offer to Exchange. The Amended Election Form is identical in all
          other respects to the form you received earlier this month, except for
          this change.

          We have put Amended Election Forms in your mailboxes behind the
          reception area. If you elect to participate in the program, please use
          the new form. If you have already delivered an Election Form to Rita
          deAraujo, you may: i) sign the Amended Election Form and return it to
          Rita, or ii) do nothing and let your previously delivered Election
          Form stand.

     2)   Also, it has come to our attention that some of you have been unable
          to find your option agreements. If this is the case and you wish to
          participate, you still can. You should submit a letter stating that
          you are unable to find your option agreements and that the effect of
          your letter is the same as if you had turned in your agreements.
          Please see Rita deAraujo for a Lost Stock Option Agreement Letter that
          you can use to accomplish this.

     I encourage you to see Rita or me if you have questions. If you intend to
     participate, I'd like to remind you that the Offer expires at 5:00 p.m. on
     April 1, 2003.
