As a result of the acceleration, unvested options to purchase approximately 2.3 million shares of the Company's common stock became fully vested and immediately exercisable. The affected stock options have exercise prices ranging from $2.02 to $3.98 per share, and a weighted average exercise price of $2.41. The affected options include options to purchase approximately 587,000 shares of the Company's common stock held by the Company's executive officers, having a weighted average exercise price of $2.32. This acceleration is effective as of September 27, 2005.
The Company's decision to accelerate the vesting of the affected employee stock options was primarily to eliminate or reduce the compensation expense relating to such options that the Company would otherwise be expected to record in its statement of operations for future periods upon the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2006, and will require that compensation expense associated with stock options be recognized in the statement of operations, rather than as footnote disclosure in consolidated financial statements. The Company estimates that the maximum future expense to be eliminated is approximately $3.0 million, approximately $754,000 of which is attributable to options held by executive officers of the Company. This estimate is subject to change but is based on estimated value calculations using the Black-Scholes methodology. The Company expects that this amount will be reflected in a pro forma footnote disclosure in its fiscal year 2005 financial statements, as permitted under the transition guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
