     In December 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to fix certain of its variable rate debt in order to reduce the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. On March 3, 2000, the interest rate swap agreement was settled resulting in a deferred gain. In accordance with SFAS 133, the unamortized gain was reclassified in 2001 to other comprehensive income and is being amortized over the remaining life of the related debt as a reduction of interest expense. In each of 2003 and 2002, the Company recorded approximately $67,000, net of taxes, of amortization related to this deferred gain.
