   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recently Issued Standards&lt;/i&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In April&amp;#160;2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No.&amp;#160;2010-17, &lt;i&gt;Revenue
   Recognition &amp;#8212; Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU
   2010-17. ASU 2010-17 allows the milestone method as an acceptable revenue recognition methodology
   when an arrangement includes substantive milestones. ASU 2010-17 provides a definition of
   substantive milestone and should be applied regardless of whether the arrangement includes single
   or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. ASU 2010-17 is limited to transactions involving
   milestones relating to research and development deliverables. ASU 2010-17 also includes enhanced
   disclosure requirements about each arrangement, individual milestones and related contingent
   consideration, information about substantive milestones and factors considered in the
   determination. ASU 2010-17 is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal
   years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June&amp;#160;15, 2010, with early
   adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In April&amp;#160;2010, the FASB issued ASU No.&amp;#160;2010-13, &lt;i&gt;Compensation &amp;#8212; Stock Compensation (Topic
   718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of
   the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2010-13&lt;i&gt;. &lt;/i&gt;ASU 2010-13 clarifies
   that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in
   which a substantial portion of the entity&amp;#8217;s equity securities trades should not be considered to
   contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an
   award should not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. ASU 2010-13 is
   effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after
   December&amp;#160;15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact
   of this standard.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In March&amp;#160;2010, the FASB issued ASU No.&amp;#160;2010-11, &lt;i&gt;Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Scope
   Exception Related to Credit Derivatives&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2010-11. ASU 2010-11 clarifies that embedded
   credit-derivative features related only to the transfer of credit risk in the form of subordination
   of one financial instrument to another are not subject to potential bifurcation and separate
   accounting. ASU 2010-11 also provides guidance on whether embedded credit-derivative features in
   financial instruments issued by structures such as collateralized debt obligations are subject to
   bifurcations and separate accounting. ASU 2010-11 is effective at the beginning of a company&amp;#8217;s
   first fiscal quarter beginning after June&amp;#160;15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of
   this standard will not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash
   flows.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In October&amp;#160;2009, the FASB issued ASU No.&amp;#160;2009-14, &lt;i&gt;Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue
   Arrangements That Include Software Elements &amp;#8212; a consensus of the FASB EITF&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2009-14. ASU
   2009-14 changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include tangible products and
   software elements. The amendments of this update provide additional guidance on how to determine
   which software, if any, relating to the tangible product also would be excluded from the scope of
   the software revenue recognition guidance. The amendments in this update also provide guidance on
   how a vendor should allocate arrangement consideration to deliverables in an arrangement that
   includes both tangible products and software, as well as arrangements that have deliverables both
   included and excluded from the scope of software revenue recognition guidance. This standard is
   effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal
   years beginning on or after June&amp;#160;15, 2010. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this
   standard.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;In October&amp;#160;2009, the FASB issued ASU No.&amp;#160;2009-13, &lt;i&gt;Revenue Recognition (Topic 650):
   Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements &amp;#8212; a consensus of the FASB EITF&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2009-13. ASU
   2009-13 will separate multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. This update establishes a selling
   price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The amendments of this update
   will replace the term &amp;#8220;fair value&amp;#8221; in the revenue allocation guidance
   with &amp;#8220;selling price&amp;#8221; to clarify that the allocation of revenue is based on entity-specific
   assumptions rather than assumptions of a marketplace participant. The amendments of this update
   will eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that arrangement consideration be
   allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price
   method. The amendments in this update will require that a vendor determine its best estimated
   selling price in a manner consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable
   on a standalone basis. This standard is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered
   into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June&amp;#160;15, 2010. We are currently
   evaluating the potential impact of this standard.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recently Adopted Standards&lt;/i&gt;
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Effective
   January&amp;#160;1, 2010, we adopted ASU No.&amp;#160;2010-06, &lt;i&gt;Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
   (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2010-06. A reporting
   entity should provide additional disclosures about the different classes of assets and liabilities
   measured at fair value, the valuation techniques and inputs used, the activity in Level 3 fair
   value measurements, and the transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 fair value measurements. The
   adoption of the additional disclosures for Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements did not have
   an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The disclosures regarding
   Level 3 fair value measurements do not become effective until January&amp;#160;1, 2011 and, given such, we
   are currently evaluating the potential impact of this part of the update.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Effective
   January&amp;#160;1, 2010, we adopted ASU No.&amp;#160;2010-01, &lt;i&gt;Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for
   Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging
   Issues Task Force)&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2010-01. The amendments in this update clarify that the stock portion of
   a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential
   limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate
   is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a
   stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 (Equity and Earnings Per Share). Those
   distributions should be accounted for and included in earnings per share calculations. The adoption
   of this standard did not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash
   flows.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Effective January&amp;#160;1, 2010, we adopted ASU No.&amp;#160;2009-17, &lt;i&gt;Consolidations (Topic 810):
   Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU
   2009-17. The amendments in this update replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation
   for determining which reporting entity, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable
   interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which reporting entity has the power to
   direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity&amp;#8217;s
   economic performance and (1)&amp;#160;the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2)&amp;#160;the right to
   receive benefits from the entity. An approach that is expected to be primarily qualitative will be
   more effective for identifying which reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in a
   variable interest entity. The amendments in this update also require additional disclosures about a
   reporting entity&amp;#8217;s involvement in variable interest entities, which will enhance the information
   provided to users of financial statements. We evaluated our business relationships to identify
   potential variable interest entities and have concluded that consolidation of such entities is not
   required for the periods presented. On a quarterly basis, we will continue to reassess our
   involvement with variable interest entities.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Effective January&amp;#160;1, 2010, we adopted ASU No.&amp;#160;2009-16, &lt;i&gt;Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860):
   Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2009-16. The amendments in this update improve
   financial reporting by eliminating the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the
   consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage
   securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred financial
   assets. In addition, the amendments require enhanced disclosures about the risks that a transferor
   continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement in transferred financial assets.
   Comparability and consistency in accounting for transferred financial assets will also be improved
   through clarifications of the requirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial
   assets that are eligible for sale accounting. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact
   on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
   &lt;/div&gt;
   &lt;div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"&gt;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;&amp;#160;Effective January&amp;#160;1, 2010, we adopted ASU No.&amp;#160;2009-15, &lt;i&gt;Accounting for Own-Share Lending
   Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing&lt;/i&gt;, or ASU 2009-15. ASU
   2009-15 provides guidance
   on equity-classified share-lending arrangements on an entity&amp;#8217;s own shares when executed in
   contemplation of a convertible debt offering or other financing. The adoption of this standard did
   not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
