We experienced significant delays in the preparation and filing of our Second Quarter 2012 Form 10-Q. These delays were unexpected and resulted in significantly longer time periods to complete the filings than originally anticipated. The delays are primarily due to the transition by us from Deloitte to Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”), our independent registered public accounting firm since the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The transition resulted in additional work that Deloitte needed to complete in order to consent to the reissuance of its opinion related to the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2011, and the consolidated results of its operations, its comprehensive (loss)/income, and its cash flows presented in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10-K”) filed on December 31, 2013. This additional work also resulted in delays in the reviews by Deloitte and E&Y of our Second Quarter 2012 Form 10-Q, which has resulted in the significantly longer time periods to complete the filings than originally anticipated by us.

In light of the Restatement as well as the additional reasons set forth above, we will not be able to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 within the extension period provided under Rule 12b-25.

We refer you to the 2011 10-K for more information related to the Restatement, including, without limitation, the nature of the accounting error giving rise to the Restatement and the estimate of the cumulative anticipated impact of the Restatement on our previously issued consolidated financial statements for the Restatement Period.

We expect to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as soon as practicable.

The above statements and the anticipated timing of our SEC filings constitute forward-looking statements that are based on our current expectations.
