Item 5. Other Events and Required FD Disclosure.

As previously disclosed by the Registrant on Form 8-K, the Registrant sent a
notice on March 21, 2003 (the "Original Notice") to its executive officers and
directors pursuant to Regulation BTR advising them of a Blackout Period (the
"Blackout Period"). The Original Notice provided that the Blackout Period
pursuant to Regulation BTR was expected to begin on April 24, 2003, and end no
later than May 16, 2003. The Registrant has given notice to all of its employees
and directors and executive officers, and hereby advises the Commission, that
the actual ending date for the Blackout Period was May 12, 2003, as opposed to
the uncertain ending date the Registrant previously advised of no later than May
16, 2003. The reason for this change is that the transition to a new
recordkeeping service provider did not take as long as anticipated by the
Registrant. The actual beginning date was correctly stated in the Original
Notice, April 24, 2003.
