stockholder rights plan when it expires on March 17, 2006, and that its Board of
Directors has adopted a governance policy limiting the circumstances in which it
will adopt a stockholder rights plan without stockholder approval. The Board,
noting the ongoing discussion of majority voting, also adopted a governance
