annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2002, filed with the

May 31, 2003, 39,065,834 ordinary shares outstanding, and that such amount
INCLUDES 385,900 shares held by the registrant as treasury shares.
The registrant hereby amends the foregoing to provide that it had, as
of May 31, 2003, 39,065,834 ordinary shares outstanding, and that such amount
DOES NOT INCLUDE the 385,900 shares held by the registrant as treasury shares.
All other information contained in Item 7, including the numbers of shares and
