Item 5.  Other Events.

 

                On April 18, 2003, the Registrant issued a press release announcing that the Registrant’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, was inadvertently released by electronic filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 15, 2003, prior to obtaining the signed opinion and consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Registrant’s independent accounting firm.  In fact, Deloitte & Touche LLP had not yet issued its opinion and consent.

 

                The Registrant intends to file an amendment to its Form 10-K on Form 10-K/A within the next several business days.  Until such amendment is filed, investors should be advised that the opinion and consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP have not been rendered, and therefore, investors should not rely on the financial statements contained in the Form 10-K.  The Registrant believes that the financial statements which will be included in the Form 10-K/A will not contain any material changes from the financial statements contained in the 10-K inadvertently filed on April 15, 2003.

 

                The press release issued by the Registrant relating to the announcement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information Exhibits.
