</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On June&nbsp;30, 2005, the Registrant filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No.&nbsp;333-126270) (the &#147;Form&nbsp;S-8&#148;) registering
2,355,373 shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, to be issued pursuant
to the Registrant&#146;s 1998 Stock Plan (the &#147;1998 Plan&#148;), 2,394,592 shares to be issued pursuant to
the Registrant&#146;s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the &#147;2005 Plan&#148;) and 222,222 shares to be issued
pursuant to the Registrant&#146;s 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the &#147;2005 ESPP&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the 2005 Plan and the 2005 ESPP, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in 2006
and ending in 2015, the number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock reserved for issuance
under each plan shall be automatically increased. Pursuant to these provisions, on April&nbsp;1, 2006
and again on April&nbsp;1, 2007 the number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock reserved for
issuance pursuant to the 2005 Plan increased by 666,666 shares and the number of shares of the
Registrant&#146;s Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2005 ESPP increased by 222,222
shares (a total of 1,333,332 for the 2005 Plan and 444,444 for the 2005 ESPP).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, under the 2005 Plan, all shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock that are
issuable upon the exercise of stock options previously granted under the 1998 Plan that expire or
become unexercisable for any reason automatically become available for issuance under the 2005
Plan. As of June&nbsp;30, 2007, the total number of shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock subject to
stock options previously granted under the 1998 Plan that have expired or become unexercisable for
any reason and, therefore, that became available for issuance under the 2005 Plan, was 73,401

EXPLANATORY NOTE
On June 30, 2005, the Registrant filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-126270) (the "Form S-8") registering
2,355,373 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, to be issued pursuant
to the Registrant's 1998 Stock Plan (the "1998 Plan"), 2,394,592 shares to be issued pursuant to
the Registrant's 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan") and 222,222 shares to be issued
pursuant to the Registrant's 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2005 ESPP").
Under the 2005 Plan and the 2005 ESPP, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in 2006
and ending in 2015, the number of shares of the Registrant's Common Stock reserved for issuance
under each plan shall be automatically increased. Pursuant to these provisions, on April 1, 2006
and again on April 1, 2007 the number of shares of the Registrant's Common Stock reserved for
issuance pursuant to the 2005 Plan increased by 666,666 shares and the number of shares of the
Registrant's Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the 2005 ESPP increased by 222,222
shares (a total of 1,333,332 for the 2005 Plan and 444,444 for the 2005 ESPP).
In addition, under the 2005 Plan, all shares of the Registrant's Common Stock that are
issuable upon the exercise of stock options previously granted under the 1998 Plan that expire or
become unexercisable for any reason automatically become available for issuance under the 2005
Plan. As of June 30, 2007, the total number of shares of the Registrant's Common Stock subject to
stock options previously granted under the 1998 Plan that have expired or become unexercisable for
any reason and, therefore, that became available for issuance under the 2005 Plan, was 73,401
shares.
All of the information contained in the Form S-8 shall be incorporated herein by reference.
