Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
On December 27, 2007, Sean M. O'Connor, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan ("Plan") with a broker which is effective January 2, 2008 and replaces a current Plan which expires December 31, 2007. Under the 2008 Plan Mr. O'Connor may sell up to 50,583 shares of the Company's stock in conjunction with the exercise of 50,583 options. Mr. O'Connor may also sell up to 25,000 shares of stock currently owned. The Plan specifies the timing and market prices for the sales, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Mr. O'Connor entered into the Plan as part of his personal long-term investment strategy for asset diversification and liquidity. Mr. O'Connor will have no control over the timing of the stock sales under the Plan. The Plan is scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2008. The Plan is intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Company's insider trading policy. Rule 10b5-1 allows corporate insiders to establish prearranged written stock trading plans. The 10b5-1 plan must be entered into in good faith at a time when the insider is not aware of material non-public information. Subsequent receipt by the insider of material non-public information will not prevent prearranged transactions under the 10b5-1 plan from being executed.
