ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.
In December, 2005, Stanwich Consulting Corp., of which the reporting
person is the President, sole director and majority shareholder,
transferred 10,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock in satisfaction
of approximately $57,000 of indebtedness to a third party.
During the period March 3, 2006 through March 14, 2006, Sovereign Bank,
as pledgee, sold 797,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock owned by
the reporting person in open market transactions. The net proceeds from
such sales, $5,637,588 (average of $7.0735 per share sold), were
applied (1) to pay $1,600,000 of the reporting person's indebtedness to
Stanwich Financial Services Corp. ("SFSC") and (2) to pay $4,037,588 to
Sovereign Bank in full satisfaction of his indebtedness to such bank.
As of the date hereof, the reporting person has no plan or proposal
which relates to or would result in any of the actions described in
Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except that the reporting person may buy and
sell shares of the Issuer's Common Stock in the future. The reporting
person has pledged 205,800 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock to SFSC
(the "SFSC PLEDGE") to secure his indebtedness to SFSC. Such
indebtedness is currently due. Accordingly, such pledged shares may be
sold at any time.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
(a) The reporting person beneficially owns or may be deemed to own
an aggregate of 460,860 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock
(the "BENEFICIALLY OWNED SHARES"). The Beneficially Owned
Shares constitute 2.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of
such Common Stock.
(b) Number of shares as to which the reporting person has:
(i) sole power to vote or to direct the vote: 6,738
(ii) shared power to vote or to direct the vote: 40,832
(iii) sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition
of: 6,738
(iv) shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of:
40,832
Of the Beneficially Owned Shares, 207,490 shares are owned by
the reporting person's spouse. He has no voting or dispositive
power as to these shares. The Beneficially Owned Shares
include 40,832 shares that are owned by Stanwich Consulting
Corp., f/k/a Stanwich Partners, Inc. ("SCC"). The reporting
person is the President, director and the owner of a majority
of the outstanding shares of the voting stock of SCC. Because
of these relationships, for purposes of Regulation 13D, the
reporting person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of
the shares of Common Stock owned by SCC and to share with SCC
voting and dispositive powers as to such shares. The
Beneficially Owned Shares also include 205,800 shares that the
reporting person has pledged to SFSC. Under the terms of the
SFSC Pledge, SFSC currently has the sole right to vote and
dispose of such pledged shares.
(c) No transactions in the Issuer's Common Stock were effected in
the past 60 days by the reporting person, except for
transactions, if any, described in this filing.
(d) Under the terms of the SFSC Pledge, SFSC has (i) the right to
receive any dividends paid on the 205,800 shares of the
Issuer's Common Stock pledged by the reporting person
thereunder and (ii) the right to receive the proceeds from the
sale of such shares (but, in each case, not more than the
amount of debt secured by such pledge).
(e) The reporting person ceased to be the beneficial owner of more
than 5% of the Issuer's Common Stock on or about March 8,
2006.

reporting person.
