Item 1.01, Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement:

Item 1.01 of the Form 8-K Report for June 27, 2006 is hereby amended to add the following paragraphs (capitalized terms not defined below shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Form 8-K Report for June 27, 2006):

The Merger Agreement also contemplates that prior to the consummation of the Merger the Company will have entered into change of control agreements (“CIC Agreements”) with each of 36 employees of the Company (“Designated Employees”). Each CIC Agreement is expected to be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4. Generally, under the CIC Agreement applicable to the respective Designated Employees, the employee will be eligible to receive a “Retention Amount” and a “Severance Amount” based on level of responsibility and years of service of such employee. As the terms of the CIC Agreement will be implemented upon consummation of the Merger, the Retention Amount will be paid one-third as of the Closing, one-third 90 days after the Closing and one-third 180 days after the Closing, if the employee is employed by the Company at each such date. The Retention Amount is also payable in full if Employee is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or terminates his or her employment prior to the expiration of such 180 period for Good Reason. The Severance Amount will be paid to any of the Designated Employees if, within two years following the Closing, such employee’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than for Cause or is terminated by the employee for Good Reason. Cause and Good Reason are each defined in the form of CIC Agreement that is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.4. The aggregate amount payable under all Retention Agreements is approximately $400,000 and the aggregate amount potentially payable under all Severance Agreements is approximately $1,180,000.

The following provides information with respect to Retention Amounts payable to the executive officers of the Company named in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under Schedule 14A on April 12, 2006 and the Severance Amounts potentially payable to such executive officers.
