ITEM 5.05   AMENDMENTS TO THE REGISTRANT'S CODE OF ETHICS, OR WAIVER OF A
            PROVISION OF THE CODE OF ETHICS

On June 17, 2005, the Governance Committee received a letter from an outside
attorney alleging that Mr. William H. Bartels, Vice Chairman and a director of
the Corporation, had made certain trades in securities issued by the Corporation
("SGRP Shares") that appeared to be in technical violation of Section 16(b) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Section 16(b)") and possibly resulting in
"short-swing profits" that would have to be disgorged to the Corporation. The
Company promptly began a thorough investigation of the alleged trades and the
circumstances involved with the full cooperation of Mr. Bartels and the
assistance of its counsel. Based on Mr. Bartels' trades to date, the Company
calculated that Mr. Bartels had received $1,555.04 in short-swing profits (as
calculated under Section 16(b) and applicable regulations and decisions) that
have to be disgorged to the Corporation.

On July 1, 2005, the Governance Committee received a letter from Mr. Bartels
explaining his inadvertent and unintentional violation of Section 16(b), which
he said resulted from a desire to transfer securities issued by the Corporation
from his private account to his retirement account. In that letter, he also
stated his willingness to pay the resulting "short-swing profits" to the
Corporation required under Section 16(b) and requested a waiver of any resulting
violation of the SPAR Group Code of Ethical Conduct for all Directors, Senior
Executives and Employees dated as of May 1, 2004 (the "Ethics Code"), if any.

On July 18, 2005, the Governance Committee, through its unanimous written
consent, adopted a waiver dated as of July 1, 2005, of any such violation of the
Ethics Code, based on Mr. Bartels explanations in his letter and subject to his
prompt payment of such short-swing profits to date to the Corporation. Mr.
Bartels paid those short-swing profits to the Corporation on July 7, 2005.
