Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 24, 2006, our Chairman, Greg R. Meland, established a pre-arranged, personal stock trading plan under SEC Rule 10b5-1 (the “Plan”) to sell a portion of his holdings of our Common Stock. Mr. Meland has advised us that he intends to use proceeds from sales under his Plan to diversify his personal investments.
The Plan covers the sale of up to 120,000 shares over a one-year period. Subject to a minimum $3.00 per share price, Mr. Meland’s broker will make sales under the Plan of up to 30,000 shares per month. Sales will take place only during the first ten business days of the month. Following completion of the planned sales, and assuming the broker sells all of the shares subject to the Plan, Mr. Meland will continue to own 3,215,690 shares of our Common Stock.
