1. We note your response to our previous comment number two.  You
state that you did not pay higher rent to PMC and in your previous
response dated May 27, 2005 on comment two you state that the
obligation to pay PMC the difference between the assigned value
and
the net sale proceeds was contingent since the Company had the
option
to pay higher rent rather then pay the Assigned Value shortfall
and
this contingency resulted in the leases to continue to be
accounted
for as operating leases.  Please explain how this contingency was
evaluated in determining whether or not the leases were capital or
operating leases given you did not pay higher rent.



Note 14 - Commitments, Contingencies and Other Matters, page F-33:

2. We have reviewed the scheduled provided by you in response to
our
previous comment number three.  Please explain to us when the
deferred gain of $5.2 million will be recognized into income.

      Please respond to the comments included in this letter
within
ten business days.  If you have any questions, you may contact
Thomas
Flinn, Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-3469 or the undersigned at

      							Sincerely,


      							Linda Van Doorn
