Tuesday, April 20, 2010, the Company issued a press release disclosing financial
results for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The press release is
made part of this Form and is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
The

expressed in such forward looking statements.
The
Registrant announced it will pay a dividend of $0.04 per common share on April
30, 2010 to shareholders of record as of April 27, 2010.
