Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of  
            Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

On April 27, 2005, the Board of Directors appointed James E. Gardner
to fill the unexpired term of William O.E. Henry, who died in March. 
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Gardner and
any other person concerning his appointment to the Board of Directors. 

Mr. Gardner retired in 2000 as president and chief executive officer
of ITT Community Development Corporation, the planner and developer of
Palm Coast, Florida, a 42,000-acre planned community.  Mr. Gardner has
been appointed to the Compensation and Stock Option, and Governance 
Committees of the Board of Directors.  There are and have been no
transactions, either since the beginning of the Company's last
fiscal year or that are currently proposed, regarding Mr. Gardner that
are required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation 
S-K.


Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change
           in Fiscal Year.

On April 27, 2005, the bylaws of the Company were amended to reflect
the correct number of directors.  Section 2.1 "Number, Qualifications"
under Article II "Board of Directors" was changed.  This section now
states that the total number of directors constituting the board of
directors of the corporation shall be nine. The number of directors
may be increased or decreased only by the affirmative vote of (a) the
holders of at least 85% of the shares of the corporation then entitled
to be voting on such change or (b) two-thirds of the directors then in
office.  Directors need not be shareholders. 

Section 2.9 "Mandatory Retirement of Directors" was added under
Article II "Board of Directors."  The new bylaw states that a director
of the Company shall retire from the board of directors at the first
annual meeting of shareholders held after the director attains age 75. 

Both changes take effect immediately.

              99.2 Bylaws as amended April 27, 2005.
