ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

As part of its director compensation plan, on June 26, 1998, the Registrant sold
155,544 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, an amount equal to 1% of the
then-outstanding Common Stock, to each of its outside directors, Messrs. Jeffrey
S. Chernow and Stephen F. Fante, for $0.17 per share, fair market value on June
26, 1998. Consideration for the shares consisted of the proceeds of non-recourse
loans from the Registrant, each in the amount of $26,442.48. The loans were
secured by the shares, bore interest at the Applicable Federal Rate, and were
initially due on September 30, 2002. On September 25, 2001, the Registrant
extended the terms of the loans until October 1, 2006.

On September 15, 2006, the Registrant purchased 155,544 shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock from Mr. Chernow for $0.25 per share, the closing
price on September 15, 2006, for total cash proceeds of $38,886.00, and
purchased 155,544 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock from Mr. Fante for
$0.25 per share, the closing price on September 15, 2006, for total cash
proceeds of $38,886.00. Messrs. Chernow and Fante each used $26,442.48 cash from
the transaction to retire the outstanding loans.
