Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information provided under Item 2.03 below is incorporated by reference under this Item 1.01.





Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On August 26, 2005 (the "Effective Date"), the Registrant and PICO Holdings, Inc. ("PICO") amended and restated the Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Promissory Note dated March 28, 2005. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Promissory Note dated August 26, 2005 (the "Amended Convertible Note"), the Registrant may borrow up to $6.0 million at an interest rate of prime plus 2.75%, of which $4.0 million is outstanding as of the Effective Date. The Registrant is obligated to repay all outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Amended Convertible Note on March 28, 2006. The Amended Convertible Note provides that the number of shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock that PICO would receive in connection with a conversion of any amounts outstanding under the Amended Convertible Note would be determined by dividing the total outstanding amount to be converted by the lesser of (i) eighty percent (80%) of the five-day moving average price per share of the Registrant’s Common Stock on the date of PICO’s election to exercise its conversion right or (ii) $1.36 (which is equal to 80% of the price per share of the Registrant’s Common Stock on July 27, 2005). The number of shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Amended Convertible Note is not subject to a cap. In addition, in connection with issuing the Amended Convertible Note, the Registrant issued to PICO a warrant to purchase 125,000 shares of Common Stock of the Registrant, at an exercise price of $1.70 per share. The warrant expires on August 26, 2008. The Amended Convertible Note continues to be secured by the assets of the Registrant, and is subordinated to the security interest granted under the Registrant’s line of credit.
