Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Changes in Fiscal Year.
(a)
          On August 16, 2007, the Board of Directors adopted the Second Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), effective immediately upon their adoption, to supersede and replace the existing bylaws of the Company. The bylaws were amended to allow for the issuance of uncertificated shares of company common stock, which shall cause the Company to be eligible to participate in any qualified Direct Registration System, which allows investors to have securities registered in their names without the issuance of physical certificates and allows investors to electronically transfer securities to broker-dealers in order to effect transactions without the risks and delays associated with transferring physical certificates. The bylaws were also revised to delete the specific board committee responsibilities and replace that language with more general requirements. Specifically, Sections 3.10, 5.1 and 5.2 were modified.
Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
