(1)  Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the
     registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c). The price per share and aggregate
     offering price are based upon: (a) for shares issuable under the Company's
     2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 85% of the average high and low price of
     Registrant's Common Stock on February 28, 2001, as reported on the Nasdaq
     National Market; (b) for shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options
     under the Company's 2000 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, the exercise price
     of such shares; or (c) for shares issuable pursuant to unissued options
     under the 2000 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan and the 1996 Stock Option
     Plan, the average of the high and low prices of Registrant's Common Stock
     on February 28, 2001, as reported on the Nasdaq National Market. The chart
     below details the calculation of the registration fee.

(2)  Pursuant to Rule 416(a), this Registration Statement shall also cover any
     additional shares of the Registrant's Common Stock that becomes issuable
     under the plans by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
     recapitalization or other similar transaction effected without the receipt
     of consideration that increases the number of the Registrant's outstanding
     shares of Common Stock.
