Item 6 Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person
(1) Price Associates does not serve as custodian of the assets
of any of its clients; accordingly, in each instance only
the client or the client's custodian or trustee bank has
the right to receive dividends paid with respect to, and
proceeds from the sale of, such securities.
The ultimate power to direct the receipt of dividends paid
with respect to, and the proceeds from the sale of, such
securities, is vested in the individual and institutional
clients which Price Associates serves as investment
adviser. Any and all discretionary authority which has
been delegated to Price Associates may be revoked in whole
or in part at any time.
Except as may be indicated if this is a joint filing with
one of the registered investment companies sponsored by
Price Associates which it also serves as investment
adviser ("T. Rowe Price Funds"), not more than 5% of the
class of such securities is owned by any one client
subject to the investment advice of Price Associates.
(2) With respect to securities owned by any one of the T. Rowe
Price Funds, only State Street Bank and Trust Company, as
custodian for each of such Funds, has the right to receive
dividends paid with respect to, and proceeds from the sale
of, such securities. No other person is known to have
such right, except that the shareholders of each such Fund
participate proportionately in any dividends and
distributions so paid.
