- Debt Instrument: $115 million Senior Convertible Notes.

The filing details two material accounting standard changes requiring retrospective adjustments to the 2008 Form 10-K:
- FSP EITF 03-6-1: Requires unvested share-based payment awards with non-forfeitable dividend rights to be treated as participating securities in EPS calculations (two-class method). Applied retrospectively to 2006, 2007, and 2008.
- FSP APB 14-1: Requires bifurcation of liability and equity components for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash. Applied retrospectively to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, affecting the $115 million Senior Convertible Notes.
