Item 3.01. Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard.

On June 1, 2005, the Company timely submitted its annual CEO certification to the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) for the fiscal year 2004, indicating its compliance with the NYSE listing standards. However, the Company received notice on September 19, 2006 from the NYSE indicating that it omitted to state in its 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders that the Company had submitted this certification to the NYSE, as required by the commentary to Section 303.12(a) of the NYSE listing standards.

The Company does not believe that the above-referenced omission is material and is curing its non-compliance by filing this Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the extent required, the Company will include this disclosure in future annual reports.



SIGNATURE


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.
