INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

The undersigned registrant hereby amends, as set forth below, the Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed by the registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 1, 2000, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Form 8-A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2004.

 

ITEM 1. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered.

On January 30, 2009, we entered into Amendment No. 2 to Rights Agreement with StockTrans, Inc. Pursuant to such amendment, StockTrans, Inc. has agreed to replace U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation as Rights Agent under our Rights Agreement, as amended. In addition, (i) Section 21 of the Rights Agreement was amended to reduce the combined capital and surplus required to be held by the Rights Agent at the time of its appointment to $1.75 million and (ii) the term of the Rights Agreement was extended to July 31, 2018.

We originally entered into the Rights Agreement on July 31, 2000. In connection with such entry into the Rights Agreement, our Board of Directors, at such time, declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of our Common Stock. The dividend is payable to shareholders of record on August 17, 2000. Each such purchase right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $100 per one one-thousandth of a preferred share, subject to adjustment.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the description of the preferred share purchase rights and their terms set forth in the Rights Agreement, as amended. The Rights Agreement and its amendments are each incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Rights Agreement. Amendment No. 2 is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.3.
