In approving the amendments to the SOP, the shareholders also approved the amendment of all outstanding options granted under the SOP to accord with the SOP as amended. The other terms and conditions of outstanding options, including vesting, exercise price and term remain unchanged. For a complete summary of the terms and conditions of the SOP, please refer to the Company’s proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission on April 28, 2008.
