<p style=' margin-bottom:6pt; margin-top:0pt; text-indent:0.5in;text-align:justify;'><font size=2>On August 8, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved a new NASDAQ listing standard which requires listed companies to be eligible for participation in the Direct Registration System (&#147;DRS&#148;), which is currently administered by the Depository Trust Company. The Direct Registration System 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.  To meet DRS requirements and comply with the new NASDAQ listing standards, the Board of Directors of the Corporation amended Article III of the Corporation&#146;s Bylaws (the &#147;Bylaws&#148;), effective as of August 23, 2007, to permit the issuance of uncertificated shares, upon adoption
by the Corporation&#146;s Board of Directors of a resolution authorizing such issuances.  The Board of Directors has no intention at this time to authorize uncertificated shares, but may decide to do so in the future.  </font></p>

<p style=' margin-bottom:6pt; margin-top:0pt; text-indent:0.5in;text-align:justify;'><font size=2>The full text of the Bylaws, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report, and amended Article III thereof is incorporated herein by reference.</font></p>

Item 2.02
Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On August 8, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved a new NASDAQ listing standard which requires listed companies to be eligible for participation in the Direct Registration System ("DRS"), which is currently administered by the Depository Trust Company. The Direct Registration System 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.  To meet DRS requirements and comply with the new NASDAQ listing standards, the Board of Directors of the Corporation amended Article III of the Corporation's Bylaws (the "Bylaws"), effective as of August 23, 2007, to permit the issuance of uncertificated shares, upon adoption
by the Corporation's Board of Directors of a resolution authorizing such issuances.  The Board of Directors has no intention at this time to authorize uncertificated shares, but may decide to do so in the future.
The full text of the Bylaws, as amended, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report, and amended Article III thereof is incorporated herein by reference.
