(the &#8220;Registrant&#8221;) filed a registration statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-160010) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;Commission&#8221;) to register 7,000,000 shares of the Registrant&#8217;s Common Stock, no par value, authorized and issuable under the Registrant&#8217;s 2009 Equity Plan (the &#8220;Prior Plan&#8221;). The registration statement also covered such additional shares as may have been offered or issued to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits, split-ups, reclassifications or other similar events effected without the receipt of consideration. The Registrant paid a registration fee of $1,687.39 at that time to register the securities.    &#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:8px;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On January 11, 2017, the board of directors of the Registrant approved the adoption of the Registrant&#8217;s 2017 Equity Plan (the &#8220;New Plan&#8221;) subject to approval of the Registrant&#8217;s shareholders. The Registrant&#8217;s shareholders subsequently approved the New Plan on March 14, 2017 (the &#8220;Effective Date&#8221;). Pursuant to the terms of the New Plan, as of the Effective Date, no new shares may be issued under the Prior Plan. However, the New Plan provides that the following are available for awards under the New Plan: (i) any shares that remained available for grant under the Prior Plan; and (ii) any shares subject to awards that were previously outstanding under the Prior Plan that are terminated, canceled, surrendered or forfeited after the Effective Date of the New Plan. Pursuant to the undertaking that the Registrant disclose a material change in the plan of distribution, the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement to reflect that the 2,017,948 previously registered shares that remain available for issuance under the Prior Plan are being carried forward for issuance under the New Plan. In addition, there are currently 1,945,443 shares subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan. As awards are terminated, canceled, surrendered or forfeited under the Prior Plan, a corresponding number of shares registered pursuant to this Registration Statement will automatically be added to the number of shares that may be issued under the New Plan. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:8px;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">PART I</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:6px;padding-top:6px;text-align:center;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The documents containing the information specified in Part I of Form S-8 will be sent or given to employees and non-employee directors as specified by Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act.

The Registrant&#8217;s by-laws provide that such persons are automatically entitled to advances from the Registrant for the payment of certain expenses incurred by such persons upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the person to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that the person is not entitled to indemnification by the Registrant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Registrant is not obligated to indemnify any person or advance expenses with respect to any action, suit or proceeding commenced by the person, other than mandatory counterclaims and affirmative defenses. The Registrant may indemnify employees and agents of the Registrant, and advance expenses to them, on the same basis as provided in the by-laws for directors and officers, as the board of directors of the Registrant may from time to time determine or authorize.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition, the Registrant has entered into separate indemnification with its directors and executive officers.

Subject to certain limitations, the indemnification agreements provide for the advancement of expenses incurred by the director or officer in connection with the proceedings described above. The indemnification agreements do not exclude any other rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses to which the director or officer may be entitled.</font></div><div

A participant who is employed on the last day of the performance period will receive a cash payment with respect to his or her PSUs as if target performance had been attained and based on the value of Shares on the date of the Change in Control. Such payment shall be made during the period from January&#160;1 to March&#160;15 following the end of the performance period.

In the case of PSUs, RSUs (pursuant to which Shares may be delivered) or Restricted Stock, the Committee may require that the Participant or other appropriate person remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy the Withholding Requirements, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Committee with regard to such Withholding Requirements, prior to the delivery or vesting of any Shares. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:12px;text-align:left;padding-left:32px;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">(b) </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Election to Withhold Shares</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

Shares shall be valued, for purposes of this subsection (b), at their Fair Market Value (determined as of the date an amount is includible in income by the Participant (the &#8220;Determination Date&#8221;), rather than the date of grant). If Shares acquired by the exercise of an ISO are used to satisfy the Withholding Requirements, such Shares must have been held by the Participant for a period of not less than the holding period described in Code section 422(a)(1) as of the Determination Date. The Committee shall adopt such withholding rules as it deems necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:12px;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.7 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Transferability of Awards</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

During a Participant&#8217;s lifetime an Award requiring exercise may be exercised only by the Participant (or in the event of the Participant&#8217;s incapacity, by the person or persons legally appointed to act on the Participant&#8217;s behalf). </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:12px;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.8 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Registration</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, Awards may be granted hereunder in substitution for awards held by employees of other corporations who are about to, or have, become Employees as a result of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of assets, or similar transaction by the Company or a Related Corporation. The terms of the substitute Awards so granted may vary from the terms set forth in this Plan to such extent as the Committee may deem appropriate to conform, in whole or in part, to the provisions of the awards in substitution for which they are granted; provided, however, that no Option shall be granted for less than Fair Market Value as of the date of grant and no Award shall be granted which would be subject to Code section 409A. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:12px;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">10.10 </font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;text-decoration:underline;">Employment and Board Membership Rights</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">.

Upon the making or institution of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding, the Board or Committee member shall notify the Company in writing, giving the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before such Board or Committee member undertakes to handle it on his or her own behalf.
