As we seek to increase profitability, we are undertaking a comprehensive program designed to streamline our corporate-wide support organization and reduce SG&A costs. Fourth-quarter SG&A expenses included a charge of $3.3 million associated with employee reduction and separation expenses, which we expect to yield annualized savings of around $8 million. We intend to continue this process during 2006 with the goal of not only reducing costs, but also improving operational effectiveness.

We believe that these initiatives, together with improved cash flow from business operations, have enhanced our financial flexibility. We currently have sufficient resources to retire the remaining '06 convertible notes at maturity and based on current forecasts we believe we will have sufficient liquidity available to satisfy the $146 million of 5% convertible notes due March 2007. As previously announced, during the first quarter of 2006 we purchased in the open market $30 million face value of our outstanding $471 million aggregate principal amount of 9.25% Senior notes due February 2008.
