Exhibit 31.1

PART II

Item 9A of the Form 10-K filed by the Company on April 14, 2004 is hereby amended and restated as follows.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not designed nor were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The weakness in internal control over financial reporting and in the disclosure controls is described below under the heading Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In connection with the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, the Company’s independent auditors, KPMG LLP, identified a reportable condition in internal control that KPMG LLP considered to be a material weakness under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The material weakness noted by KPMG occurred in the year ended December 31, 2003 and was the reason why KPMG identified an audit adjustment that reduced an accrual for income taxes by $2,549.

The Company reflected in its financial statements included in annual reports on Form 10-K for prior years the $2,618 accrual for income taxes related to certain income tax contingencies. The Company continued to maintain the accrual for income taxes while the statute of limitations for the tax years of the respective contingencies remained open.

In connection with its 2003 audit, KPMG concluded that the income tax accrual should be reduced by $2,549 because the Company had sufficient net operating losses available to apply against the tax contingencies. KPMG pointed to the fact that the Company continued to have operating losses in years subsequent to the years related to the tax contingencies and to the more recent change in tax law allowing operating losses to be carried back five years.

The Company understands that KPMG determined that the accounting adjustment had not been identified by the Company because the Company failed to monitor business activities and changing circumstances to identify events that necessitate a more in-depth written and contemporaneous analysis or revaluation of prior management judgments and accounting estimates.

The Company addressed KPMG’s comment regarding its failure to monitor business activities and changing circumstance in order to identify events that necessitate a more in-depth written and contemporaneous analysis or revaluation of prior management judgments and accounting estimates. Within one month after receiving KPMG’s comment, the Company modified its internal control to require a written analysis prior to the filing of each quarter’s Form 10-Q and the Form 10-K that identifies changes in the Company’s business activities and changing circumstances and considers potential revaluation of prior management judgments and accounting estimates. This analysis is applied to those areas of accounting identified under Critical Accounting Estimates on Form 10-K.

In addition, immediately after receiving KPMG’s comment, the Company prepared a written analysis to support the $2,549 reduction to the accrual for income taxes prior to the filing of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
