REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE

Rule 10b5-1 allows corporate executives and directors to establish prearranged written stock trading plans at a time when they are not aware of material non-public information. Subsequent receipt by the executive or director of material non-public information will not prevent prearranged transactions under the 10b5-1 plan from being executed. These plans allow individuals to achieve prudent and gradual asset diversification over time.

Under the Plan, Mr. Williams may sell up to 127,426 shares of the Company’s common stock in specified share amounts at specific market prices. As of Apirl 16, 2007, Mr. Williams has sold 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Plan. Any sales under the Plan are disclosed publicly through appropriate filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Plan will terminate no later than March 31, 2008.
