ASU's not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.     &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style='margin-top:8pt; margin-bottom:0pt'&gt;&lt;font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;margin-left:36px;"&gt;In October 2009, the FASB issued amendments to the accounting and disclosure for revenue recognition.  These amendments, effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (early adoption is permitted), modify the criteria for recognizing revenue in multiple element arrangements and the scope of what constitutes a non-software deliverable. The Company has elected to early adopt this guidance, on a prospective basis for applicable transactions originating or materially modified after January 1, 2010. The implementation of this amended accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position and results of operations in the period of adoption.  Adoption impacts in future periods will vary based upon the nature and volume of new or materially modified transactions but are not expected to have a significant impact on sales. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style='margin-top:5.95pt; margin-bottom:0pt'&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;</NonNumbericText><NonNumericTextHeader>Note 2.
