Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

Notwithstanding a press report in The Wall Street Journal on August 11, 2006 of a statement regarding the prospective outcome of the governmental investigations into historical option practices, the Company reiterates and wishes to emphasize its view as expressed in its press release dated August 7, 2006: "The information [relating to its historical option practices] set forth in [Note 3 to its consolidated financial statements included in its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2006]... can no longer be relied upon, [and] will be superceded by the Company's updated announcement" regarding such matters in the future following completion of its internal investigation.





Statements contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K that are not based on historical fact are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (which Sections were adopted as part of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). While management has based any forward-looking statements contained herein on its current expectations, the information on which such expectations were based may change. These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results to materially differ from such statements. Such risks, uncertainties, and other factors include, but are not necessarily limited to, those set forth in the Company’s prior filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in the most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed on May 15, 2006. In addition, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks may arise. Accordingly, investors should not place any reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We disclaim any intention to, and undertake no obligation to, update or revise any forward-looking statement.
