After giving effect to this Registration Statement, an aggregate of 1,500,000 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock have been registered for issuance pursuant to the 2006 Plan. To the extent outstanding awards under the Company’s 1997 Stock Option Plan, 1998 Stock Option Plan, 2000 Stock Option Plan or 2004 Stock Option Plan expire or are canceled or terminated without having been exercised in full, the shares of common stock subject to such awards will be available for future issuance under the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Option and Incentive Plan.
