This Prospectus Supplement supplements and amends the Prospectus dated
December 2, 2004 (the "Prospectus") relating to the resales from time to time by
holders (the "Selling Securityholders") of our Warrants ("Warrants") and Shares
("Shares") of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. This
Prospectus Supplement should be read in conjunction with the Prospectus, which
is to be delivered with this Prospectus Supplement.
NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES
COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE
ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLMENT. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
The date of this Prospectus Supplement is February 1, 2006.
OVERVIEW
The Warrants are listed for trading on the NASDAQ National Market under
the symbol "TCHCZ." On January 31, 2006, the closing sales price of the Warrants
on the NASDAQ National Market ("NASDAQ") was $5.55 per Warrant. There have not
been any reported trades of the Warrants since January 9, 2006 through the date
of this Supplement. Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of
our common stock at an exercise price of $12.75 per whole share. On January 31,
2006, the closing sales price of Shares of the Company's common stock on NASDAQ
was $18.50 per share.
SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
The information in the table appearing under the heading "Selling
Securityholders" adds information with respect to persons not previously listed
in the Prospectus as Selling Securityholders and supersedes information for
persons previously listed as Selling Securityholders in the Prospectus. The
information below presents information as of January 31, 2006 regarding the
Selling Securityholders and the Warrants and the Shares that the Selling
Securityholders may offer and sell from time to time under this Prospectus. The
table is prepared based on information supplied to us by the Selling
Securityholders.
Although we have assumed for purposes of the table below that the Selling
Securityholders will sell all of the Warrants or Shares offered by this
Prospectus, no assurances can be given as to the actual number of Warrants or
Shares that will be resold by the Selling Securityholders or that will be held
by the Selling Securityholders after completion of the resales. In addition, the
Selling Securityholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of the
Warrants or the Shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act since the date the Selling Securityholders provided the
information regarding their securities holdings. Information concerning the
Selling Securityholders may change from time to time and changed information
will be presented in a supplement to the Prospectus and the Prospectus
Supplement if and when necessary and required.
None of the Selling Securityholders has been within the last three years,
or is currently, affiliated with the Company. Each Selling Security holder
purchased its Warrants together with a 6% subordinated note ("Note") in our
September 2004 private offering of Notes and Warrants.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Securityholders and any pledgees, donees, transferees or other
successors in interest of the Selling Securityholders (collectively, all shall
be referred to as the "Selling Securityholders") may sell their Warrants and
Shares in various ways and at various prices. Some of the methods by which the
Warrants and the Shares may be sold include:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker
solicits purchasers or makes arrangements for other brokers to
participate in soliciting purchasers;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o block trades in which the broker or dealer will attempt to sell the
Warrants or Shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of
the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by that
broker or dealer for the Selling Securityholder's account under this
prospectus on the Nasdaq National Market at prices and on terms
then-prevailing in the market;
o sales under Rule 144, if available, rather than using this
Prospectus;
o a combination of any of these methods of sale; and
o any other legally permitted method.
The applicable sales price may be affected by the type of transaction. In
addition, this Plan of Distribution, is also updated to include, the exercise of
the Warrants by assignees, transferees, purchasers or other successors in
interest to the original Selling Securityholders listed in the Prospectus.
When selling Warrants and/or Shares, the Selling Securityholders intend to
comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act, by
delivering the Prospectus, this Prospectus Supplement and any other supplements
or amendments to these documents to each purchaser. We may file any supplements,
amendments or other necessary documents in compliance with the Securities Act
that may be required if a Selling Securityholder defaults under any customer
agreement with brokers.
3
Brokers and dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling
Securityholders or, if the broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of the
Warrants or Shares, from that purchaser, in amounts to be negotiated. These
commissions are not expected to exceed those customary in the types of
transactions involved. We cannot estimate at the present time the amount of
commissions or discounts, if any, that will be paid by the Selling
Securityholders in connection with any sales of the Warrants and/or Shares.
The Selling Securityholders and any broker-dealers or agents that
participate with a Selling Securityholders in sales of the Warrants and/or
Shares may, in certain instances, be deemed to be "underwriters" within the
meaning of the Securities Act in connection with these sales. In that event, any
commissions received by the broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the
resale of the Warrants or the Shares purchased by them may be deemed to be
underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Under the securities laws of certain states, the Warrants and Shares may
be sold in those states only through registered or licensed broker-dealers. In
addition, the Warrants and Shares may not be sold unless the Warrants and Shares
have been registered or qualified for sale in the relevant state or unless the
Warrants and Shares qualify for an exemption from registration or qualification.
We have agreed to pay all of our out-of-pocket expenses and our
professional fees and expenses incident to the registration of the resale of the
Warrants and the issuance of the Shares. The Selling Securityholders and other
persons participating in any distribution of the Warrants or Shares offered
under this Prospectus and this Prospectus Supplement are subject to the
applicable requirements of Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act in
connection with sales of the Warrants and the Shares.
