Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 16, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the acceleration of the vesting of all unvested "out-of-the money" stock options previously awarded to its employees, including its executive officers and its directors under the Company's equity compensation plans having an exercise price greater than $3.48, which was the closing price of the Company's common stock on that date. Options to purchase approximately 1.1 million shares of the Company's common stock became exercisable immediately. The weighted average exercise price of the options subject to the acceleration is $4.69.

The purpose of the acceleration is to enable the Company to eliminate future compensation expense the Company would otherwise recognize in its statement of operations with respect to these accelerated options upon the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123R "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"). The Board of Directors took the action in the belief that it is in the best interest of the shareholders to minimize future compensation expense associated with stock options upon adoption of SFAS 123R. SFAS 123R is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2006 and will require that compensation expense associated with stock options be recognized in the statement of operations, rather than as a footnote disclosure in the Company's consolidated financial statements. It is estimated that the maximum future compensation expense that would have been recorded in the Company's statements of operations had the vesting of these options not been accelerated is approximately $1.5 million. The Company will disclose the impact of the acceleration in its December 31, 2005 financial statements within its pro forma footnote disclosures, as permitted under the transition guidance provided by the FASB.
