15(d) and corresponding Commission rules for the 12 months preceding the filing of this form, and whether you have

filed at least one annual report under section 13(a).

Instruction to Item 1.

If you are a successor issuer that has filed this Form 15F pursuant to Rule 12h-6(d), and are relying on the re-

porting history of the issuer to which you have succeeded under Rule 12g-3 (17 CFR 12g-3) or Rule 15d-5 (17 CFR

1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a et seq.) (“Securities Act”).

Instructions to Item 2.

1. Do not include registered offerings involving the issuance of securities:

a. to your employees, as that term is defined in Form S-8 (17 CFR 239.16b);

taken pursuant to a standby underwritten offering or other similar arrangement in the United States.

2. If you have registered equity securities on a shelf or other Securities Act registration statement under which

ing the preceding 12 months, disclose whether you have filed a post-effective amendment to terminate the registration of

unsold securities under that registration statement.
