99.1 Press Release dated February 8 2006 of the Registrant.

~~The total restricted stock awarded to each~~2 executive will be allocated 50% as a time-based award and 50% as a performance-based award. Each award will be governed by restricted stock agreements. The Form of each agreement was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed on April 15, 2005. This current report describes certain terms of these restricted stock agreements, and such descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements.

Pursuant to the applicable restricted stock agreement, the time-based awards and the performance-based awards will vest in equal installments on each of the next five anniversary dates of the award, assuming certain performance targets are met, with regard to the performance-based awards. The Committee has determined that the performance-based awards require that the Company achieve certain pre-determined financial hurdles in each of the five years the restricted stock vests. The financial hurdles are based upon Total Return to Shareholders (“TRS”). For the applicable restricted stock to vest, the Company’s TRS must exceed certain market benchmarks. The formula incorporates a carryback/carryforward feature that would, in essence, average the TRS performance over the five-year vesting period. The vesting of both time-based awards and performance-based awards will accelerate upon an executive’s death or disability or a change in control of the Company. In addition, the Committee has determined that all future long-term incentive awards will be made solely in restricted stock, rather than in options or in a combination of options and restricted stock.
