Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Our earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in interest rates
primarily from our investment of available cash balances in investment grade corporate and U.S.
government securities. We do not believe we are materially exposed to changes in interest rates.
Under our current policies we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to
interest rate changes. We estimated that a one percent change in interest rates would result in an
approximately $0.9 million and $1.1 million change in the fair market value of our investment
portfolio at June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The decrease in the impact of an interest rate
change at June 30, 2006, compared to June 30, 2005, is due to decreases in our investment
portfolios balance and duration to maturity at the end of June 2006 versus the end of June 2005.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial
officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(the Exchange Act)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this
evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer each concluded that, as of the
end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in
applicable rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30,
2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
