Total cancellation |

|
Such options have exercise prices that are significantly higher than the current trading price of the Companys common stock and, as a result, require the Company to recognize significant accounting charges under applicable accounting rules while those options remained outstanding and unvested. As a result of the cancellation of such options, the Company recognized an accounting charge of approximately $10 million.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
Also on December 14, 2009 the Compensation Committee and the Board approved by combined consent the acceleration of vesting of options to purchase 337,565 shares of our common stock in the aggregate with a weighted average exercise price of $19.93 held by certain of the Companys employees, none of whom is a named executive officer or executive officer of the Company. Such options have exercise prices that are significantly higher than the current trading price of the Companys common stock and, as a result, require the Company to recognize significant accounting charges under applicable accounting rules while those options remained unvested. As a result of the acceleration of vesting of such options, the Company recognized an accounting charge of approximately $3 million.
