Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and certain intangibles be tested for impairment at least annually or when indicators of impairment are present. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144. Based on the Company’s analysis, there was no impairment of goodwill in connection with the annual impairment tests that were performed during the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.
