Company has until the earlier of its next shareholders' meeting or March 1, 2007
to cure its noncompliance.
On March 1, 2006, director Robert A. Ebel, who served as chairman of

currently interviewing qualified individuals to fill the vacancy on the board.
The committee intends to nominate a candidate at the Company's March 15th board
