On

the Company entered into an agreement with Mr. Dunson K. Cheng, pursuant to which he agreed to defer any bonus amounts in excess of
$225,000

until the later of
January
1
of the
first
year following his separation from service from the Company or the
first
day of the
seventh
month following his separation from service from the Company. Accordingly, an amount equal to
$610,000
was deferred in
2004
and was accrued in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company agreed to accrue interest on the deferred portion of the bonus at
7.0%
per annum compounded quarterly. The deferred amount will be increased each quarter by the amount of interest computed for that quarter. On
