For purposes of calculating the filing fee only, the transaction value was determined based upon the sum of (A) 70,593,859 shares of common stock multiplied by the merger consideration of $22.00 per share; (B) 2,588,000 options to purchase shares of common stock multiplied by $3.56 per share (which is the difference between the merger consideration and the weighted average exercise price of $18.44 per share); and (C) $8,778,000, the amount expected to be paid to holders of restricted stock units and performance stock units ((A), (B) and (C) together, the “
Transaction Valuation
”).

The filing fee, calculated in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 0-11(c) and the Securities and Exchange Commission Fee Rate Advisory #3 for fiscal year 2012, was determined by multiplying the Transaction Valuation by .0001146.

Item 15(b) is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: | ||
On January 12, 2012, at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the Company’s shareholders approved the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “
Merger Agreement
”), dated as of October 11, 2011, by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub.
On January 13, 2012, the Company and Merger Sub filed an Agreement of Merger with the California Secretary of State, pursuant to which Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving entity (the “
Merger
”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, as a result of the Merger, each share of the Company’s common stock, no par value (the “
Company common stock
”), was converted into
the right to receive $22.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes (the “
Merger Consideration
”). The following shares of Company common stock were not converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in connection with Merger: (a) shares owned by any of the Company’s shareholders who are entitled to and who have properly exercised dissenters’ rights under California law, (b) shares owned by the Company, and (c) shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, including shares contributed to Parent immediately prior to the completion of the Merger by Eric Schiffer, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Jeff Gold, the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer, Howard Gold, the Company’s Executive Vice President, Karen Schiffer, and David Gold and Sherry Gold as co-trustees of The Gold Revocable Trust dated October 26, 2005. In addition, each outstanding stock option granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans that represented the right to acquire Company common stock, whether or not then vested and exercisable, was, as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, fully vested and exercisable contingent on the closing of the Merger and cancelled as of the effective time of the Merger. The holder of the stock option is entitled to receive a cash payment for each share of Company common stock subject to such stock option, equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Merger Consideration over (ii) the option exercise price payable in respect of such share of Company common stock issuable under such stock option, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. Further, each outstanding restricted stock unit and each performance stock unit granted under the Company’s equity incentive plans was cancelled as of the effective time of the Merger. The holder of such restricted stock unit or performance stock unit is entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the product of (i) the number of unforfeited shares of Company common stock subject to the restricted stock unit or performance stock unit, multiplied by (ii) the Merger Consideration, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes.
As a result of the Merger, Company common stock will cease to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (the “
NYSE
”) and the NYSE will file an application on Form 25 with the SEC to report that the Company is no longer listed on the NYSE. The Company expects to file a Certificate and Notice of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the SEC in order to deregister the Company common stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and suspend the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as practicable.
