Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On March 30, 2007, the registrant issued a press release announcing its plans to raise $25 million through a private placement add-on to its senior notes due 2014, subject to market and other customary conditions.  Certain of the registrant’s subsidiaries will fully and unconditionally guarantee the additional notes.  The Registrant intends to use the net proceeds from the proposed offering to repay amounts outstanding under its existing senior credit agreement and for general corporate purposes.  The Registrant does not anticipate expanding its previously announced capital expenditure budget.

The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The Company plans to offer and issue the notes only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S.

The information contained herein is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.

Registrant is furnishing its press release dated March 30, 2007, which announces its plans to raise $25 million through a private placement add-on to its senior notes due 2014. The text of the press release is furnished as attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
