         This Amendment amends Schedule 13D dated April 2, 2003, as amended to
date. Except as amended, the statements contained in the Schedule 13D remain
true and correct.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) BRT owns 75,400 shares of Common Stock of the Company, constituting
approximately 4.41% of the 1,710,874 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Since
its holding of shares of the Company is less than 5%, BRT will no longer file
Schedule 13D's with respect to its ownership of shares of the Company, unless
its ownership of shares of the Company shall in the future reach 5%.

BRT, which owned 115,400 shares of Common Stock of the Company, has disposed of
40,000 shares owned by it in ordinary market transactions.

(b) BRT has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of
Common Stock it owns. Fredric H. Gould, Chairman of the Board of BRT, and
Jeffrey Gould, President and Chief Executive Officer of BRT, each have shared
voting and dispositive power with respect to the Common Shares owned by BRT.
