Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 2, 2007, key executives receiving grants under the Company’s long-Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan fully vested in Restricted Stock previously granted to them on November 1, 2006. As previously reported, at that time, key executives received stock options and restricted stock, (A) 20% of which Restricted Stock vested on the later to occur of the satisfaction of both of the following conditions: (i) the first anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) the closing price of the Company’s common stock equaling or exceeding $4.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days; and (B) 30% of which Restricted Stock vested on the later to occur of the satisfaction of both of the following conditions: (i) the first anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) the closing price of the Company’s common stock equaling or exceeding $5.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days. The remaining 50% of the restricted stock granted to key management has not vested.
As a result of the satisfaction of the conditions described above, key executives that received Restricted Stock grants had a taxable event requiring the payment of applicable federal, state and local income taxes. Each key executive elected to forfeit shares to the Company to satisfy those tax obligations. Accordingly, key executives deemed reporting persons under Section 16 of the US Securities Exchange Act will be filing Statements of Changes in Beneficial Ownership of Securities on Forms 4 denoting the transaction code “F,” “Payment of exercise price or tax liability by delivering or withholding securities incident to the receipt, exercise, or vesting of a security issued in accordance with Rule 16b-3”.
