EXPLANATORY NOTE

DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed by the Registrant on May 17, 2007 (File No. 333-143048 ) (the “Registration Statement”) is being filed for the purpose of deregistering 144,522 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock that were originally registered for issuance under the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plan”).

On May 4, 2010, the shareholders of the Registrant approved the Registrant’s 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and, in connection therewith, no further awards can be made under the Prior Plan. A maximum of 3,500,000 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock are authorized for issuance under the Plan. Shares granted after December 31, 2009 under the Prior Plan were counted against the authorized shares for the Plan. Shares covered by awards under the Prior Plan after December 31, 2009 that are forfeited, cancelled or otherwise expire without having been exercised or settled, or that are settled by cash or other non-share consideration, become available for issuance pursuant to a new award under the Plan and are credited to the Plan pool at a ratio of one share for options and SARs, or 1.7 shares for restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other stock-based awards. As of January 31, 2014, 144,522 shares had ceased to be subject to awards under the Prior Plan and had become available for registration and issuance under the Plan. Accordingly, the Registrant hereby deregisters 144,522 shares (the “Carryover Shares”) that have not and will not be issued under the Prior Plan, but which instead are available for issuance under the Plan. The Registration Statement will remain in effect to cover potential issuances of shares pursuant to the terms of outstanding awards thereunder. If any shares subject to those outstanding awards under the Prior Plan subsequently become available for issuance under the Plan, one or more future post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement will be filed to deregister such shares and any remaining shares registered but which remain unsold at the termination of the offering under the Registration Statement.

Contemporaneously with the filing of this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement, the Registrant is filing a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register the Carryover Shares authorized for issuance pursuant to the Plan.
