Item 3.03. Material Modifications to Rights of Security Holders.

On November 29, 2005, the Registrant’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized an extension to the 690,000 Class A redeemable publicly traded warrants (the “Redeemable Warrants”) which currently trade under the OTC Bulletin Board symbol WITMW. The Board has authorized an extension in the expiration date to November 30, 2007 from the previous extended date of November 30, 2005.

The terms of the Redeemable Warrants are as follows: each warrant represents the right to purchase one (1) share of the Registrant’s common stock, $0.01 par value, at an exercise price of $7.15 per share until November 30, 2007. The warrants are redeemable by the Registrant at a redemption price of $0.10 per redeemable warrant at any time on 30 days’ notice, provided that the market price of its common stock equals or exceeds $8.25 per share for 10 consecutive trading days ending within 20 days prior to the notice of redemption.

Additionally, the Board authorized an extension to 4,299,850 private warrants (the “Private Warrants”) issued in connection with the Registrant’s October 2003 private placement. The common stock underlying the Private Warrants is currently available for resale under a base Prospectus dated May 4, 2005. The Private Warrants were originally due to expire in October 2004, but were extended by the Board to October 2005 and further extended to expire on November 30, 2005. The Board has authorized an extension in the expiration of the Private Warrants from the previous extended dates until March 31, 2006.

The terms of the Private Warrants are as follows: each warrant represents the right to purchase one (1) share of the Registrant’s common stock, $0.01 par value, with exercise prices from $0.25 to $0.75 per share, until March 31, 2006. The warrants are redeemable by the Registrant at a redemption price of $0.01 per redeemable warrant at any time on 10 days’ notice, provided that the market price of its common stock equals or exceeds $0.75 per share for 10 consecutive trading days.
