ITEM 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On July 27, 2006, the registrant conducted a conference call announcing the results of the Company’s operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Also on July 27, 2006 the registrant issued a Press Release concerning its second quarter 2006 results. The Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1. The conference call presentation is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this report. Such exhibits shall be deemed “furnished” for purposes of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended.

The registrant discloses net operating income, a non-GAAP financial measure, which it defines as net income adjusted for after-tax net realized investment gains and losses. Because net operating income is not a term defined by GAAP, the registrant’s net operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. However, the registrant believes that this measure provides useful information to help investors measure the results of its regular business activities. The registrant utilizes net operating income in its budget and planning process and, in part, in measuring actual performance.

On July 27, 2006, Margaret M. Mattix, one of the Company’s directors, advised the Company that she intends to resign as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, effective October 31, 2006.
