Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On February 12, 2007, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determined not to award any amounts for 2006 under the Company's Annual Incentive Plan (the "Plan") for Peter S. Rummell, the Company's Chief Executive Officer; Wm. Britton Greene, Chief Operating Officer; and Christopher T. Corr, Chief Strategy Officer, since the Company’s performance targets for 2006 were not met. However, Michael N. Regan was granted an award of $75,000 pursuant to the terms of his amended employment agreement, a copy of which was previously filed with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 5, 2007.

The Compensation Committee also designated 2007 target awards under the Plan for each of Messrs. Rummell, Greene and Corr, which target awards were calculated as a percentage of each officer's base salary. The target award percentages are 100% for Mr. Rummell, 75% for Mr. Greene and 60% for Mr. Corr. For each percentage variation from the target performance objective, the amount of the projected award will be increased or decreased, as applicable, at twice the rate. Accordingly, goals that are only 50% achieved will result in a 0% projected award, and goals that are exceeded by 50% or more will result in a 200% projected award. After the calculation of the projected cash award based on the achievement of Company performance goals, an individual performance multiplier will then be applied to determine the actual award under the Plan. The personal multiplier that will be applied to the projected awards for these executive officers if the Company's performance goals are achieved will be 150%, subject to decrease in the discretion of the Committee.

For 2007, the Compensation Committee established a performance goal based on earnings per share of the Company, consistent with prior years. During the first quarter of 2008, the Committee will determine the extent to which the performance goal is attained for purposes of calculating the actual awards.

The foregoing description of the Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed February 17, 2006, and is incorporated herein by reference.





Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
