Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 16, 2005, the Registrant issued a press release reporting its financial results for the period ended September 30, 2005. A copy of the press release is being furnished as an exhibit to this report and is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.02.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 15, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the redemption by the Company of up to 25% of the 5,628,737 outstanding shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock. The redemption will be made pursuant to the terms of the designation for the preferred shares contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Following formal notice of redemption, the Company will pay the initial issue price of $10 per preferred share that is redeemed, plus any prorated dividends to date. There are currently no dividends in arrears on the Series D Preferred Stock. The Company expects to complete the redemption of the 25% of outstanding preferred shares in the first quarter of 2006.

The Company’s Board of Directors also authorized a stock repurchase plan under which the Company may repurchase up to one million shares of its common stock. Subject to applicable securities laws, such repurchases will be made at times and in amounts as the Company deems appropriate and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company expects that the funding for the plan will come from available corporate funds. Under the terms of the designation for the Series D Preferred Stock, the Company must have paid or set aside sufficient funds for dividends on the preferred shares for the current dividend period prior to the repurchase of common stock at any time. The preferred stock designation also restricts the Company from redeeming any common shares without the approval of preferred shareholders until its total shareholders’ equity is at least 300% of the aggregate issue price of any outstanding preferred stock. Based on that restriction, the Company may not repurchase its common shares at the present time. However, after the completion of the preferred stock redemption discussed above, the Company expects to meet the shareholders’ equity requirement and will be permitted to repurchase its common shares without the approval of the preferred shareholders.
