Share Based Payments

In December 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement 123R (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment, which requires all companies to measure compensation cost for all share-based payments, including employee stock options, at fair value. The Company is required to adopt the statement beginning with the first quarter of 2006. Upon adoption, the Company will be required to recognize compensation on all share-based grants made on or after January 1, 2006, and for the unvested portion of share-based grants made prior to January 1, 2006. On various dates throughout the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company accelerated unvested options related to grants made prior to January 1, 2006 in order to mitigate future compensation expense it would have otherwise been required to recognize.

Restatement of previously issued statements is permitted, but not required.

As a result of SFAS 123R, the Company will be required to expense the fair value of our stock option grants rather than disclose the impact on its consolidated statement of operations within the Company’s footnotes, as is current practice. Based on stock options currently outstanding and utilizing the Company’s current Black Scholes valuation model, share based payment expense is anticipated to be approximately $7,300 ($4,500, net of tax), in the year ending December 31, 2006.

Share Based Payments

        In December 2004 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement 123R (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment, which requires all companies to measure compensation cost for all share-based payments, including employee stock options, at fair value. On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that it would provide for a phased-in implementation process for SFAS Statement 123R. Under the phase-in implementation process, the Company is required to adopt SFAS 123R beginning in the first quarter of 2006. Upon adoption, the Company will be required to recognize compensation on all share-based grants made on or after January 1, 2006, and for the unvested portion of share-based grants made prior to January 1, 2006. Restatement of previously issued statements is permitted, but not required.

        As a result of SFAS 123R, the Company will be required to expense the fair value of our stock option grants rather than disclose the impact on its consolidated statement of operations within the Company's footnotes, as is current practice. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and is evaluating alternative equity compensation arrangements.
