Net non-routine expenses for 2011 consisted primarily of legal and compliance costs related to the FCPA investigation and were recorded in selling and administrative expense and miscellaneous, net. Net non-routine expenses for 2010 consisted primarily of a settlement and legal fees related to a previously disclosed employment class-action lawsuit as well as legal and compliance costs related to the FCPA investigation. In June 2010, the SEC finalized the settlement of civil charges stemming from the SEC and U.S. Department of Justice investigations (government investigations). The Company had previously reached an agreement in principle in 2009 with the staff of the SEC and the Company accrued the $25,000 penalty in the first quarter of 2009, which was paid in June 2010. Net non-routine expenses in 2009 consisted of $1,467 in legal and other consultation fees recorded in selling and administrative expense related to the government investigations and the $25,000 penalty, recorded in miscellaneous, net. In addition, in 2009 selling and administrative expense was offset by $11,323 of non-routine income, primarily related to reimbursements from the Company’s director and officer insurance carriers related to legal and other expenses incurred as part of the government investigations.
