`Important Information About EDGAR
`
`EDGAR, the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysisr and Retrieval system,
`pertorms automated collection, validation, indexing. acceptancer and
`Forwarding oF submissions by companies and others who are required by
`law to File forms with the LLB. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
`Its primer".I purpose is to increase the eFiici-ency and fairness oF the
`securities ma rlcet For the benefit oF investors, corporations, and the
`economy by accelelating the receipt, acceptance, dissemination, and
`analysis oF time-sensitive corporate information filed with the agency.
`
`Not all documents. Filed with the Comm'ssion by public companies will be
`available on EDGAR. Companies were phased in to EDGAR tiling over a
`three-year period. ending May 6, 1996. As oF that dater all public domestic
`companies were required to make their filings on EDGAR, except For Filings
`made in paper because oF a hardship exemption. Third-party Filings with
`respect to these companies, such as tender ofiers and Schedules 13D, are
`also Filed on EDGAR.
`
`HCI'HEVEI', some documents are not yet permitted to be filed electronically.
`and consequently will not be available on EDGAR. Other documents may be
`filed on EDGAR voluntarilyr and consequently may or may not be available
`on EDGAR. For example, Fon'ns 3, It. and 5 [security ownership and
`transaction reports filed by corporate insiders) and Form 144 [notice oF
`proposed sale oF securities} may be filed on EDGAR at the option o't the
`filer. Similarly. filings by Foreign companies are not required to be tiled on
`EDGAR, but some oF these companies do so voluntarily. As of November 4.
`EDGE, Foreign companies and Foreign governments will be required to file
`their documents on EDGAR.
`
`It should also be noted that the actual an nuai report to shareholders
`[except in the case of investment companies) need not be submitted on
`EDGAR, although some companies do so voluntarily. However. the annual
`report on Form ID-K or ID- KSEI, which contains much oi the same
`inFo rmation. is required to be tiled on EDGAR.
`
`Fiiers may choose to accompany their ofiicial filings with a copy in FDE. In
`order to read a PDF document. you need an Adobe Acrobat reader. Please
`note the following inFom1ation about unoFFicial PDF copies on our web site:
`
`- Dnl‘y documents submitted to the EDGAR system in either plain text
`or H-‘H'riL are oFEicial filings. PDF documents are unoFficial co pies oF
`filings. Fliers may not use the unoFficial F‘DF copies instead oF plain
`text or HTML documenE to meet Filing requirements.
`
`- Dur rules require that an unoi'Ficial FDF copy of a document be
`substantively equivalent to the oFFicial Filing of which it is the copy.
`That isr the PDF document must be the same in all respects except
`that the PDF document may be Formatted diFFe rently and may contain
`graphics. It is the filer's responsibilityI to make sure oi this. The
`EDGAR system cannot check to malce sure the two documents are the
`same. ‘fou should look at the oi'Ficial tiling iF you need to see what has
`been filed with the EEG.
`
`- LinoFFicia! PDF copies are not subject to certain liabilities under the
`Federal securities laws that are imposed only on Filings. They are,
`however, subject to most ot the ciyii liability and anti-Fraud
`provisions. In addition, F'DF copies that are prospectuses retain
`prospectus liability under Section 12 oF the Securities Act.
