Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

2006 Annual Incentive Plan for Management Personnel

On February 16, 2006, the Nominating/Corporate Governance and Compensation Committee recommended and the Board approved the 2006 Annual Incentive Plan (“2006 AIP”) and the award opportunities.  The terms of the 2006 AIP provide for annual cash incentive award opportunities based upon Company performance measures, with threshhold, target, stretch and extraordinary levels.  The amount of incentive will be calculated by multiplying base salary by the product of the approved incentive percentage and the multiplier.  The goals for 2006 are a combination of (i) operational goals (weighted 10%) and (ii) net income (weighted 90%).  Achievement of the performance measurements, at the threshold level results in a multiplier of .5; target level – 1 times; stretch 1.5 times and extraordinary 2 times.  The Committee has full discretion to determine the extent to which goals have been achieved, the payment level and whether any final payment will be made.
