Our Board authorized the issuance of a Right with respect to each \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql outstanding share of common stock on June 7, 2001. The Rights will initially \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql trade with, and will be inseparable from, the common stock. The Rights are \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql evidenced only by certificates that represent shares of common stock. New Rights \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql will accompany any new shares of common stock we issue after June 7, 2001 until \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql the Distribution Date described below. \par\pard\plain\fs16 \par\pard\plain\fs16\pard\plain\cf1\f50\fs16\ql Exercise Price.
