      The undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints each of Paul Hastings,

and Alicia Hager, Chief Legal Officer of the Company, the undersigned's true and
lawful attorney-in-fact to:

        1   execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in the undersigned's

        2   do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the undersigned
            which may be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such
            Form 3, 4, or 5, complete and execute any amendment or amendments
            thereto, and timely file such form with the United States Securities
            and Exchange Commission and any stock exchange or similar authority;
            and

        3   take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
            foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of
            benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
            undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed by such
            attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power
            of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and
            conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such attorney-in-
            fact's discretion.

      The undersigned hereby grants to such attorney-in-fact full power and
authority to do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite,
necessary, or proper to be done in the exercise of any of the rights and powers
herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes as the undersigned might or
could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation,
hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact, or such

done by virtue of this power of attorney and the rights and powers herein

      The undersigned acknowledges that:

        1   neither the Company nor the foregoing attorney-in-fact assumes
            (i) any liability for the undersigned's responsibility to comply
            with the requirement of the Exchange Act, (ii) any liability of the
            undersigned for any failure to comply with such requirements or
            (iii) any obligation or liability of the undersigned for profit
            disgorgement under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act; and

        2   this Power of Attorney does not relieve the undersigned from
            responsibility for compliance with the undersigned's obligations
            under the Exchange Act, including without limitation the reporting
            requirements under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

      This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect to the
