Registrant is in the process of a going private transaction which was to be voted upon at its annual shareholders meeting on November 10, 2005. Just prior to that meeting, management and the audit committee of Registrant, in consultation with Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm, Pugh & Company, P.C., determined that Registrant did not correctly record the expense associated with the repurchase of its common stock from employees and directors for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 and the interim periods ended March 31, 2005 and June 30, 2005, and such expense will be restated by Registrant. The annual meeting was adjourned until corrected information could be provided to the shareholders and amended periodic reports could be filed with the SEC. 2 PART IV OTHER INFORMATION (1) Name and telephone number of person to contact in regard to this notification: Linda M.

The Registrant issued a press release on October 13, 2005 which disclosed the following related to its results of operations: Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 increased $77,000, or 5.8% compared to the same nine month period in the previous year, from $1.34 million to $1.42 million. the increase in net income is primarily the result of net gains on the sales of investments of $517,000, offset by an increase in interest expense of $417,000 as a result of an increase in our cost of funds. On April 4, 2005, Harland Financial Solutions ("Harland") announced that it was acquiring our third-party data processor, Intrieve, Inc. Proceeds from Harland for UTBI's Intrieve, Inc. stock resulted in a gain of $614,000.
