As amended, the MIP provides that with respect to financial awards for fiscal year 2007, in the event of a Sale (as defined in the amendment), a participant will be entitled to receive, in accordance with the terms of the amendment and assuming that such participant satisfies the relevant individual performance goals: (i) a 20% increase in the potential bonus amount; (ii) if the Sale occurs in fiscal year 2007, a pro rata determination of the financial award for such year, based on the period between January 1, 2007 and the closing date of the Sale; (iii) all of the financial award for fiscal year 2007 as a cash award without any deferred bonus award component to the financial award for such year; and (iv) all previous outstanding deferred bonus awards payable in full at the same time as the payment of the cash award for fiscal year 2007.

The amendment to the MIP is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference in this Item 5.02(e).
