On September 20, 2011, the French Legislature enacted a tax law change affecting the utilization of net operating losses.  Under the new law, net operating loss utilization in any particular period will be limited to 60% of the amount by which net income exceeds 1 million euros.  This law change will extend the period of time required to utilize our French net operating losses, however, net operating losses will continue to have an indefinite carryover period.  We are currently evaluating the impact of the tax law change and related considerations, but we do not expect it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
