Item 1.01(a) Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

See disclosure under Item 2.03(a) below.

Item 2.03(a) Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On June 28, 2005, the Registrant extended its unsecured revolving term loan with its primary lender, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, through June 30, 2008. Under the terms of the extended revolving credit agreement, the Registrant may advance up to $25 million with interest payable monthly either at (i) a fluctuating rate equal to prime (“Prime Rate”) or, (ii) at a fixed rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.25% (“LIBOR”), as elected by the Registrant at the date of each advance. The revolving credit agreement requires payment of an annual commitment fee of 0.10% of the average daily unused amount.

Prime Rate advances may be prepaid without penalty. LIBOR advances are subject to prepayment penalties equal to the unpaid interest due under the original terms of the advance less interest recomputed using LIBOR in effect at the date of prepayment. All outstanding principal and interest may become immediately due in the event of payment or performance default by the Registrant.

There were no amounts outstanding under the revolving term loan as of June 30, 2005.
