We have terminated discussions with the party referred to in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 21, 2004 regarding the potential sale of our mortgage business. We will continue the process of receiving proposals and holding preliminary discussions with other parties regarding the sale of such business and, as previously stated, are also considering other strategic alternatives for the business. Due to the preliminary nature of the current discussions, the potential net proceeds from, and structure of, any such transaction can not be determined at this time.
