The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the &#8220;Dodd-Frank Act&#8221;), which was signed into law July&#160;21, 2010, added Section 14A to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and requires that we provide our stockholders with an opportunity to cast an advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. This proposal, commonly known as a &#8220;Say-on-Pay&#8221; vote, gives stockholders the opportunity to approve, reject or abstain from voting with respect to our fiscal 2011 executive compensation programs and policies and the compensation paid to the named executive officers of the Company.</font></div>
