8.01 OTHER
EVENTS
On
August

ITEM
9.01 FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
The
following Exhibit is deemed to be filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Forward-looking
information
Information
provided and statements contained in the presentation that are not purely
historical are forward -looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A
of
the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements only
speak as of the date of the presentation and the company assumes no obligation
to update the information included in the presentation. Such forward-looking
statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future results
of operations, including descriptions of our business strategy. These statements
often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,”
“estimate” or similar expressions. These statements are not guarantees of
performance or results and they involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions
,
including the risk of continued delay in the completion of our financial
statements and the consequences thereof, the availability of funds, either
through cash on hand or the company’s other liquidity sources, to repay any
amounts due should any of the company’s debt become accelerated, and decisions
by suppliers and other vendors to restrict or eliminate customary trade and
other credit terms for the company’s future orders and other services, which
would require the company to pay cash and which could have a material adverse
effect on the company’s liquidity position and financial condition. Although we
believe that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable
assumptions, there are many factors that could affect our actual financial
results or results of operations and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. For a further
description of these factors, see Exhibit 99.1 to our Form 8-K filed
on April 12, 2006.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant
has
duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto
duly authorized.
