NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an accounting standards update to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity's equity securities trades, should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. This update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company implemented these new requirements in its first quarter of fiscal 2011. The adoption of this accounting guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
