Material Changes and Events
- Annual Report Delay: On August 12, 2004, the Company requested and received an extension from the NYSE to distribute its 2003 Annual Report, which was originally due within 120 days of the fiscal year-end (December 31, 2003). The report was mailed to shareholders on or about October 25, 2004.
- Board Composition Changes: On August 19, 2004, the Company notified the NYSE of temporary noncompliance with Rules 303 and 304 following the resignation of three directors, including one audit committee member. This left the audit committee with fewer than the required three directors and disrupted the classified board structure.
- Resolution of Noncompliance: Between September 8, 2004, and October 19, 2004, the Board appointed three new directors to fill the vacancies, including one member for the audit committee, thereby restoring compliance with NYSE rules.
