Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
 
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a federal income tax deduction to public companies for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 paid to the CEO and certain highly compensated executive officers during any taxable year, unless such compensation is performance based and meets certain requirements. We expect to claim an income tax deduction for 2007 compensation paid to our CEO and executive officers to the extent permitted by this section of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
 
The federal tax laws impose requirements in order for compensation payable to the CEO and certain executive officers to be fully deductible and generally provide that compensation in excess of a certain amount is deductible only if it is performance-based compensation and meets certain requirements. In 2007, we expect to claim an income tax deduction for 2006 compensation paid to our CEO and executive officers to the extent permitted by this section of the Internal Revenue Code.
