Inc. (the "Company"), who is subject to the requirements of Section 16 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), entered into a
sales plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. Under the
Plan, Mr. Capps' broker may sell up to 120,000 shares of the Company's common
stock through June 30, 2006 by selling 10,000 shares each month, at a specified
minimum market price. In the event that his broker is unable to sell 10,000
shares in any given month, any unsold shares may be carried forward to the next
month until sold. The Plan terminates on June 30, 2006, unless terminated sooner
in accordance with its terms. The shares to be sold were acquired by Mr. Capps
at the time of the Company's initial public offering.

         Specific sales transactions under the plan will be disclosed publicly
through Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
