Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information provided in Item 2.03 is incorporated herein by reference.





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

On August 31, 2006, we entered into a secured demand promissory note (the "New Facility") with KeyBank National Association that expires on April 30, 2007 (unless demand is made earlier). The New Facility provides for a $2 million revolving credit facility. The New Facility is available for working capital needs and general corporate purposes. Our obligations under the New Facility are secured by liens on our accounts and accounts receivable, other assets relating to our accounts and accounts receivable, certain cash deposits and proceeds of such assets.

At our election, loans under the New Facility will bear interest at one of the following options: (1) the alternative base rate which is the greater of (a) the effective prime rate announced by KeyBank National Association minus a margin of 1.00% per annum and (2) the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 1.25% per annum. The New Facility contains customary covenants, including but not limited to, limitations on our ability to incur liens on collateral securing our obligations under the New Facility.

Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, our obligations under the New Facility may be accelerated. Such events of default include payment defaults to lender under the New Facility, covenant defaults and other customary defaults. The lender may also demand repayment of our obligations under the New Facility at any time.

The lender under the New Facility and its affiliates have engaged and may engage in commercial and investment banking transactions with us in the ordinary course of business, and also provide or have provided advisory and financial services to us.
