(&quot;Pequot&quot;) is an investment advisor registered under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and has voting and investment power with respect to securities in its clients' accounts. Pequot disclaims any obligation to file this report, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Pequot is subject to Section 16 with respect to the Issuer of such securities.  Gerald A. Poch is an employee of Pequot and serves on the Board of Directors of the Issuer.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Pequot disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that Pequot is the beneficial owner of such securities for the purposes of Rule 16(a)-1(a)(1) or (a)(2) or for any other purpose.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">The phantom stock converts into common stock on a one-for-one basis.  The memo shares will be paid in cash, less applicable tax withholding (if any), when the service as a Director of the Issuer is completed.   The gross amount of payment at that time will be determined by multiplying the accumulated number of &quot;memo shares&quot; credited by the closing market value of the Issuer's common stock on the next trading day following the last day of service as a Director.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">The memo shares were accrued under the Issuer's Deferred Compensation Plan on December 31, 2003 at $11.59 per share.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">This amendment is being filed to revise the number of memo shares accrued as of December 31, 2003 due to revised information received from the Issuer.</footnote>
