The registrant previously filed a registration statement on Form S-8 on April 2, 2007, File No. 333-141810 (the “Prior Registration Statement”), to register shares of its common stock, plan interests and deferred compensation obligations, which were to be issued, offered and sold, and/or paid pursuant to the Previously Registered Plans. On May 26, 2010, the registrant filed a Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Prior Registration Statement (the “Post-Effective Amendment”) to (a) deregister all shares of its common stock, plan interests and deferred compensation obligations subject to outstanding awards (“Outstanding Securities”) under the Previously Registered Plans so that such Outstanding Securities can be transferred to this registration statement, which is being filed concurrently with the Post-Effective Amendment, and (b) deregister all shares of its common stock, plan interests and deferred compensation obligations not subject to outstanding awards (“Excess Securities”) under the Previously Registered Plans so that the registration fees previously paid in connection with such Excess Securities can be offset against registration fees payable under this registration statement. This registration statement on Form S-8 registers all of the Outstanding Securities, adjusted to reflect a 1-for-5 reverse stock split that was effective on May 25, 2010. This registration statement also covers (x) the registration of 3,700,000 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2010 Plan, which was approved by the registrant’s stockholders on May 21, 2010, and (y) the registration of an additional 6,000,000 shares of common stock for the Company’s various 401(k) plans, each as described above. In accordance with Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act and consistent with General Instruction E to Form S-8, the aggregate dollar amount of registration fees payable in connection with this registration statement is being offset by the $1,027 in registration fees previously paid for the Excess Securities under the Prior Registration Statement. Therefore, the total registration fees payable herewith are $1,641.06.
