Item 5. Interest in Securities of Issuer

(a)  
The calculations in this Item are based upon 23,660,860 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of November 8, 2006 (based on disclosures made by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 8, 2006) . As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned 1,210,500 shares or 5.116% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. The foregoing calculation is made pursuant to Rule l3d-3 promulgated under the Act.

(b)  
SJSI has the sole power to vote or direct the vote of 1,210,500 shares and the sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of 1,210,500 shares. Because John M. Gregory controls all of the voting interests of SJSI with respect to the securities, he may be deemed to have the sole power to vote and direct the vote of 1,210,500 shares and the sole power to dispose and direct the disposition of 1,210,500 shares.  Neither Joan P. Gregory, Susan Gregory nor James M. Gregory presently have the power to dispose, direct the disposition, vote or direct the vote of shares of Common Stock held by SJSI. However, they may be deemed to indirectly beneficially own shares of Common Stock of the Issuer held by SJSI due to their financial interests in SJSI.
