EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 25, 1996, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-2746), which was amended in a pre-effective amendment filed on March 28, 1996, to register 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, as adjusted pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933 to reflect a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend as of September 5, 1996. These shares were to be issued under our 1995 Restricted Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). Effective May 22, 2003, we amended the Plan to reduce by 800,000 shares the total number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.

Accordingly, we are filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to deregister 800,000 shares of our common stock originally authorized for issuance under the Plan.
