                  The following constitutes Amendment No. 6 ("Amendment No. 6")
to the Schedule 13D filed by the  undersigned.  This  Amendment No. 6 amends the
Schedule 13D as specifically set forth.

         Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

                  On June 22, 2006, BZ Acquisition Corp. ("BZ  Acquisition"),  a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of Steel Partners II formed for the purposes  described
herein, commenced a tender offer to acquire all the outstanding Shares of Common
Stock of the Issuer for $12.00 per Share in cash,  subject to certain conditions
(the "Tender Offer").  The purpose of the Tender Offer is to acquire control of,
and the  entire  equity  interest  in,  the  Issuer.  Steel  Partners  II and BZ
Acquisition  currently  intend,  as soon as  practicable  after  the  successful
completion of the Tender Offer, to seek maximum  representation  on the Issuer's
Board of Directors  and to seek to have the Issuer  consummate a merger or other
similar  business  combination  with BZ Acquisition or one of its  subsidiaries.
Steel Partners II and BZ Acquisition  also intend to seek to cause the Issuer to
terminate  registration  of the  Shares of  Common  Stock  under the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 as soon after  successful  consummation of the Tender Offer
as the  requirements  for  termination of  registration  of the Shares of Common
Stock are met.
