ORDER

This 6th day of January 1999, the Court, having considered the decision of the Court of Chancery dated May 22, 1998 and the briefs filed by the parties, has determined that: to the extent the issues raised on appeal are factual, the record evidence supports the trial judge's factual findings; to the extent the errors alleged on appeal are attributed to an abuse of discretion, the record does not support those assertions; and to the extent that the issues raised on appeal are legal, they are controlled by settled Delaware law, which was properly applied. Therefore, this Court has concluded that the judgment of the Court of Chancery should be affirmed on the basis of and for the reasons assigned by the Court of Chancery in its decision dated May 22, 1998.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Court of Chancery be, and the same hereby is,

AFFIRMED.

BY THE COURT:

E. NORMAN VEASEY, Chief Justice
