Additional 402(v) Disclosure     Amounts reported in this column represent (i) the total compensation reported in the SCT for the applicable year in the case of the PEO and (ii) the average of the total compensation reported in the SCT for the applicable year for our other non-PEO named executive officers that year.Compensation actually paid to our named executive officers represents the "Total" compensation reported in the SCT for the applicable fiscal year, adjusted as set forth in the following table. As described above, awards under our annual bonus program are paid, in part, in the form of time vesting and performance vesting restricted stock that is granted in the fiscal year following the applicable performance year. The time vesting restricted shares vest over a four-year period following the grant date and the performance-vesting restricted shares are subject to vesting over four years in equal installments contingent upon the applicable named executive officer being employed in good standing on such vesting date and the Company attaining an annual compound growth goal in total revenue for the applicable fiscal year compared to the base of the fiscal year revenue as reported on the Form 10-K for the fiscal year immediately preceding the grant date. In accordance with SEC guidance, we disclose the dollar-denominated value of these awards in the "Non-Equity Incentive Compensation" column of the SCT with respect to the applicable performance year (rather than as "Stock Awards" for the year of grant); as such, we believe the awards are not required to be included in the adjustments to calculating compensation actually paid. However, in an effort to comply with the spirit of the SEC pay versus performance rules relating to the adjustments for outstanding equity awards, we have treated the restricted stock awards as equity awards and captured them as part of the adjustments below.
