Schedule 14A filed September 21, 2005
File No. 1-15169
Dear Mr. Hill:
This is to advise you that we have limited our review of the
above filing to the matters addressed in the comments below. No
further review of the filing has been or will be made. Where
indicated, we think you should revise your document in response to
these comments. If you disagree, we will consider your
explanation
as to why our comment is inapplicable or a revision is
unnecessary.
Please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation. In some
of
our comments, we may ask you to provide us with supplemental
information so we may better understand your disclosure. After
reviewing this information, we may or may not raise additional
comments.
Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing.
We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or any other aspect
of
our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed
at
the end of this letter.
Proposal 2. Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, page 7
1. It appears that certain share amounts have been omitted from
your
preliminary proxy statement. Please include such information in
your
revised proxy statement.
2. You state that the purpose for increasing the number of
authorized
shares of common stock is to "allow [y]our [b]oard of [d]irectors
to
move promptly to issue additional shares of [c]ommon [s]tock, if
appropriate opportunities should arise, without the delay of
obtaining the requisite approvals." Revise to disclose whether
you
presently have any plans, proposals or arrangements to issue any
of
the newly authorized shares of common stock for any purpose,
including future acquisitions and/or financings. If so, please
disclose by including materially complete descriptions of the
future
acquisitions and financing transactions. If not, please state
that
you have no such plans, proposals, or arrangements, written or
otherwise, at this time to issue any of the additional authorized
shares of common stock.
3. Please refer to Release No. 34-15230 and discuss the possible
anti-takeover effects of the increase in authorized shares.
Please
also discuss other anti-takeover mechanisms that may be present in
your governing documents or otherwise and whether you have any
plans
or proposals to adopt other provisions or enter into other
arrangements that may have material anti-takeover consequences.
Inform holders that management might use the additional shares to
resist or frustrate a third-party transaction providing an above-
market premium that is favored by a majority of the independent
shareholders.
