Item 6.   Resignation of Directors.
          ------------------------

     On June 1, 2001, George Riordan resigned as a director pursuant to a letter
of such date expressing his conclusion that the time commitments involved in
serving as a director were incompatible with his other responsibilities and
commitments. The current board of directors, comprised of Messrs. Joseph Teresi,
John Corrigan, Stewart Gordon and Joseph Jacobs, has not yet acted to replace
Mr. Riordan, as is permitted by the company's bylaws.

     Mr. Riordan did not resign because of a disagreement with the company on
any matter relating to the company's operations, policies, or practices.
