ITEM 8.01. Other Events
- --------------------------------------------------------

The Registrant received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market on
December 18, 2006 informing the Registrant that its filing delinquency
has been cured and that the hearing scheduled for December 20, 2006 has
been cancelled as moot.

On November 14, 2006 the Registrant received a Staff Determination
from Nasdaq.  The Staff Determination was issued due to the
Registrant's non-compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14), which
requires the Registrant to make on a timely basis all filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, as required by the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In response to the receipt of the
Staff Determination, the Registrant requested a hearing before the
NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel to appeal the Staff Determination,
which was scheduled for December 20, 2006.

On December 15, 2006 the Registrant filed is Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended September 28, 2006, which cured the filing delinquency and led
to the cancellation of the hearing before the NASDAQ Listing
Qualifications Panel.
