In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition of Surrey Bancorp as of June 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, the results of operations for the six and three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and its changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the six and three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related disclosures for the year ended December 31, 2006, included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB.

Organization

Surrey Bancorp (the “Company”) began operation on May 1, 2003, and was created for the purpose of acquiring all the outstanding shares of common stock of Surrey Bank & Trust. Shareholders of the bank received six shares of Surrey Bancorp common stock for every five shares of Surrey Bank & Trust common stock owned.

Surrey Bank & Trust (the “Bank”) was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on July 15 and commenced operations on July 22, 1996. The Bank currently serves Surry County, North Carolina and Patrick County, Virginia and surrounding areas through five banking offices. As a state chartered bank, which is not a member of the Federal Reserve, the Bank is subject to regulation by the State of North Carolina Banking Commission and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Surrey Investment Services, Inc. (“Subsidiary”) was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on February 10, 1998. The Subsidiary provides insurance services through SB&T Insurance and investment advice and brokerage services through U-VEST.

On July 31, 2000, Surrey Bank & Trust formed Friendly Finance, LLC, (“Subsidiary”) an operation specializing in the purchase of sales finance contracts from local automobile dealers. The Bank originally had a 60% majority interest in the company. On March 1, 2003, the Bank acquired the minority interest in Friendly Finance, LLC in exchange for the satisfaction of other commitments of the holder of the minority interest. On January 1, 2005, Friendly Finance, LLC’s name was changed to Freedom Finance, LLC.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and subsidiaries follow generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry. Following is a summary of the more significant policies.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, contain a summary of our significant accounting policies. We believe our policies with respect to the methodology for our determination of the allowance for loan losses, and asset impairment judgments, including the recoverability of intangible assets involve a higher degree of complexity and require management to make difficult and subjective judgments with often require assumptions or estimates about highly uncertain matters. Changes in these judgments, assumptions or estimates could cause reported results to differ materially. These critical policies and their application are periodically reviewed with the Audit Committee and our Board of Directors. See our Annual Report for full details on critical accounting policies.

Table of Contents

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and the Subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Business Segments

The Company reports its activities in two business segments. In determining the appropriateness of segment definition, the Company considers the materiality of potential business segments and components of the business about which financial information is available, and regularly evaluated, relative to resource allocation and performance assessment.

Presentation of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash and amounts due from depository institutions (including cash items in process of collection). Overnight interest bearing deposits and federal funds sold are shown separately. Cash flows from demand deposits, NOW accounts and savings accounts are reported net since their original maturities are less than three months. Loans and time deposits are reported net per FASB Statement No. 104. Federal funds purchased are shown separately.

Investment Securities

Investments classified as available for sale are intended to be held for indefinite periods of time and include those securities that management may employ as part of asset/liability strategy or that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, prepayments, regulatory capital requirements or similar factors. These securities are carried at fair value and are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Investment securities classified as held to maturity are those debt securities that the Bank has the ability and intent to hold to maturity. Accordingly, these securities are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discount, computed by the interest-method over their contractual lives. At June 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, the Bank had no investments classified as held to maturity.

Loans Held for Sale

The Bank originates and holds SBA and USDA guaranteed loans in its portfolio in the normal course of business. During 2005, the Bank entered a program to sell the guaranteed portions of these loans into the secondary market. The loans are generally variable rate loans which eliminates the market risk to the Bank and are therefore carried at cost. The Bank recognizes gains on the sale of the guaranteed portion upon the consummation of the sale. The Bank plans to continue to originate guaranteed loans for sales, however no such loans were funded at June 30, 2007.

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or payoff, are reported at their outstanding principal amount adjusted for any charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or cost on originated loans and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating expense and reduced by net charge-offs. The Bank makes continuous credit reviews of the loan portfolio and considers economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, review of specific problem loans and other factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance balance.

Table of Contents

Activity in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 follows:

 

     June 30,  
     2007     2006  

Balance at beginning of year

   $ 2,531,305     $ 2,311,298  

Add provision charged to expense

     232,124       281,463  

Less net charge-offs

     (198,508 )     (156,381 )
                
   $ 2,564,921     $ 2,436,380  
                

Interest on all loans is accrued daily on the outstanding balance. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering collection efforts and other factors, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful.

NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share for the six and three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, were calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares. The potential dilutive shares are represented by common stock options and by the Series A convertible preferred stock which is convertible into 2.0868 shares of common stock.

NOTE 3. BALANCE SHEETS

The balance sheet at December 31, 2006, has been taken from the audited financial statements at that date.

NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

At June 30, 2007, the Company had commitments to extend credit, including unused lines of credit of approximately $33,664,000. Letters of credit totaling $1,266,037 were outstanding.

NOTE 5. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with, the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS No. 123R) which was issued by the FASB in December 2004. SFAS No. 123R revises SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, and supersedes APB No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related interpretations. SFAS No. 123R requires recognition of the services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R also amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows, to require that excess tax benefits be reported as financing cash inflows, rather than as a reduction of taxes paid, which is included within operating cash flows.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective application as permitted under SFAS No. 123R. Accordingly, prior period amounts have not been restated. Under this application, the Company is required to record compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the Company used the intrinsic value method as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB No. 25), and thus recognized no compensation expense for options granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Table of Contents

The Company has two share-based compensation plans, which are described below. The compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was approximately $3,901 and $6,025 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized for share-based compensation arrangements was approximately $1,326 and $2,049 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

In 1997 the Company adopted a qualified incentive stock option plan which reserved, as amended, shares (adjusted for stock exchange, dividends and exercised shares) for purchase by eligible employees. Options granted under this plan vest at the rate of 20% per year, expire not more than ten years from the date of grant, and are exercisable at not less than the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant. This plan expired on June 1, 2007. Before the plan expired, the 43,296 remaining shares available for grant were granted.

The Company also adopted a non-qualified stock option plan in 1997, which reserved, as amended, shares (adjusted for stock exchange, dividends and exercised shares) for purchase by non-employee directors. Options granted under this plan are exercisable after six months from the date of the grant at not less than the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant. The life of such options shall not extend more than ten years from the date of the grant. This plan also expired on June 1, 2007.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate for the expected life at the time of grant. Volatility is based on the volatilities of our trading history. The expected life is based on the average life of the options of 10 years and the weighted average graded vesting period of 5 years, and forfeitures are considered immaterial based on the historical data of the Company. The following table illustrates the assumptions for the Black-Scholes model used in determining the fair value of options granted to employees for the six months ended June 30, 2007. No options were granted during the six month period ended June 30, 2006.

Table of Contents

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each segment appeals to different markets and, accordingly, requires different technology and marketing strategies.

The Company derives a majority of its revenue from interest income and relies primarily on net interest income to assess the performance of the segments and make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment. Therefore, the segments are reported using net interest income for the period ended June 30, 2007. The Company does allocate income taxes to the segments. Other revenue represents noninterest income which is also allocated to the segments. The Company includes the holding company and an insurance and investment agency in its Bank segment above. The Company does not have any single external customer from which is derives 10 percent or more of its revenues and operations in one geographical area.

NOTE 7. BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has a Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (SERP) to provide future compensation to certain members of management. Under plan provisions, annual payments projected to range from $16,388 to $89,914 are payable for the life of the executive, generally beginning at age 65. The liability accrued for the compensation under the plan was $197,074 and $106,896 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Employee benefits expense, an actuarially determined amount, was $47,305 and $40,086 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The assumed discount rate, rate of compensation increase, and expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used in the initial calculations for the plan were 7.0%, 4.0% and 6.644%, respectively.

The Company also has a deferred compensation plan under which directors may elect to defer their directors’ fees. Participating directors receive an additional 30% matching contribution and will be paid an annual benefit for a specified number of years after retirement, generally beginning at age 65. The maximum payout period is ten years. Deferred directors’ fees accrued under the plan were $247,712 and $105,855 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Deferred directors’ fees expensed were $111,921 and $42,575 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The amounts deferred are held in a rabbi trust.

The Company has purchased and is the primary beneficiary of life insurance policies indirectly related to the Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan and the directors’ deferred compensation liability. The cash value of the life insurance policies totaled $2,898,892 and $2,794,466 at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

This discussion, analysis and related financial information are presented to explain the significant factors which affected Surrey Bancorp’s financial condition and results of operations for the six and three months ending June 30, 2007 and 2006. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained within this report.

Surrey Bancorp (“Company”) is a North Carolina corporation, located in Mount Airy, North Carolina. The Company was incorporated on February 6, 2003, and began business on May 1, 2003.

Surrey Bank & Trust (“Bank”) is a North Carolina state Chartered Bank, located in Mount Airy, North Carolina. The Bank was chartered on July 15, 1996, and began operations on July 22, 1996. The Bank has two operating subsidiaries. Surrey Investment Services, Inc and Freedom Finance, LLC.

Effective March 5, 1998, the Bank became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Highlights

Certain information contained in this discussion may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by phrases such as “the Company expects,” “the Company believes” or words of similar import. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks including, but not limited to, changes in general economic and business conditions, interest rate fluctuations, competition within and from outside the banking industry, new products and services in the banking industry, risk inherent in making loans such as repayment risks and fluctuating collateral values, problems with technology utilized by the Company, changing trends in customer profiles and changes in laws and regulations applicable to the Company. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reliable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Net income available for common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $695,296 or $0.20 per diluted share outstanding compared to a $570,401 or $0.17 per diluted share outstanding for the same period in 2006. Earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2007, are approximately 21.9% higher than for the same period in 2006. The increase results from a 6.5% increase in net interest income and a 15.3% increase in noninterest income. The net interest income increase is primarily due to growth. The increase in noninterest income is primarily due to an increase in the debit and credit card income and increases in servicing fees from government guaranteed loans.

Net income available for common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $1,416,585 or $.42 per diluted share outstanding compared to $1,230,510 or $.37 per diluted share outstanding for the same period in 2006. Earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2006, are approximately 15.1% higher than for the same period in 2006. The increase primarily results from a 6.6% increase in net interest income from $4,016,704 in 2006 to $4,280,970 in 2007.

On June 30, 2007, Surrey Bancorp’s assets totaled $194,655,681 compared to $187,109,528 on December 31, 2006. Net loans were $156,152,095 compared to $153,852,006 on December 31, 2006. This increase is due to growth in commercial and consumer loans from December 2006 totals. Commercial and consumer loans have increased 3.4% and 6.2%, respectively from 2006 year end totals. However, these increases have been partially offset by decreases in construction loans. Construction loans have decreased 26.9% from December 31, 2006 totals.

Total deposits on June 30, 2007, were $156,364,167 compared to $151,091,270 at the end of 2006. This increase is attributable to all deposit categories. Demand deposits increased 2.8% from 2006 totals. Certificates of deposit increased 3.6% from December 31, 2006, totals, while savings deposits, which include money market accounts, increased 4.9%.

Table of Contents

Common shareholders’ equity increased by $2,156,285 or 10.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2007, resulting in a common stock book value of $6.19 per share, up from $5.80 on December 31, 2006.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Investments

The Company maintains a portfolio of securities as part of its asset/liability and liquidity management programs which emphasize effective yields and maturities to match its needs. The composition of the investment portfolio is examined periodically and appropriate realignments are initiated to meet liquidity and interest rate sensitivity needs for the Company.

Bonds, notes, and debentures for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted by premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates. The Company had no “Held to Maturity” securities at June 30, 2007 or December 31, 2006.

Available for sale securities are reported at fair value and consist of bonds, notes, debentures, and certain equity securities not classified as trading securities or as held to maturity securities.

Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities are reported as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates.

Declines in the fair value of individual held to maturity and available for sale securities below cost that are other than temporary are reflected as write-downs of the individual securities to fair value. Related write-downs are included in earnings as realized losses.

Investments in available for sale securities of $3,604,115 consisted of U.S. Governmental Agency obligations with maturities ranging from two to twenty-four months, and GNMA adjustable rate mortgage securities, which adjust annually.

Loans

Net loans outstanding on June 30, 2007, were $156,152,095 compared to $153,852,006 on December 31, 2006. The Bank maintains a loan portfolio dominated by real estate and commercial loans diversified among various industries. Approximately 45.5% of the Company’s loans as of June 30, 2007, are fixed rate loans with 54.5% floating with the Bank’s prime rate or other appropriate internal or external indices.

Deposits

Deposits on June 30, 2007, were $156,364,167, compared to $151,091,270 on December 31, 2006. The June total comes from a base of approximately 12,015 accounts compared to 11,329 accounts at December 31, 2006; a 6.1% increase. Interest-bearing accounts represented 82.3% of the 2007 period-end deposits versus 83.9% at December 31, 2006.

Asset Quality

The notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this report provide details of the activity in the allowance for loan losses.

The provision for loan losses charged to operations was $232,124 in the first six months of 2007 compared to $281,463 for the same period in 2006.

The reserve for loan losses on June 30, 2007, was $2,564,921 or 1.62% of period end loans. This percentage is derived from total loans. Approximately $31,846,000 of loans at June 30, 2007, are government guaranteed loans which the Company’s exposure ranges from 10% to 49% of the outstanding balance. When the guaranteed portions of the loans are removed from the equation, the loan loss reserve is approximately 1.89% of outstanding loans.

The level of reserve is established based upon management’s evaluation of portfolio composition, current and projected national and local economic conditions, and results of independent reviews of the loan portfolio by internal and external examination. Management recognizes the inherent risk associated with commercial and consumer lending, including whether or not a borrower’s actual results of operations will correspond to those projected by the borrower when the loan was funded; economic factors such as the number of housing starts and increases in interest rates, etc.; depression of collateral values; and completion of projects within the original cost and time estimates. As a result, management continues to actively monitor the Company’s asset quality and lending policies. Management believes that its loan portfolio is diversified so that a downturn in a particular market or industry will not have a significant impact on the loan portfolio or the Company’s financial condition. Management believes that its provision and reserve offer an adequate allowance for loan losses and provide an appropriate reserve for the loan portfolio.

Unsecured loans, that are past due more than 90 days are placed into nonaccrual status. Secured loans reach nonaccrual status when they surpass 120 days past due. When facts and circumstances indicate the borrower has regained the ability to meet the required payments, the loan is returned to accrual status.

At June 30, 2007, the Company had loans totaling approximately $207,765 in nonaccrual status.

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

One of the principal duties of the Company’s Asset/Liability Management Committee is management of interest rate risk. The Company utilizes quarterly asset/liability reports prepared by a regional correspondent bank to project the impact on net interest income that might occur with hypothetical interest rate changes. The committee monitors and manages asset and liability strategies and pricing.

Another function of the Asset/Liability Committee is maintaining adequate liquidity and planning for future liquidity needs. Having adequate liquidity means the ability to meet current funding needs, including deposit withdrawals and commitments, in an orderly manner without sacrificing earnings. The Company funds its investing activities, including making loans and purchasing investments, by attracting deposits and utilizing short-term borrowings when necessary.

At June 30, 2007, the liquidity position of the Company was good, with short-term liquid assets of $23,497,373. Deposit increases in excess of loan increases during the first six months of 2007 increased the liquidity position by approximately $4,639,000 from December 31, 2006, totals. To provide supplemental liquidity, the Bank has six lines of credit with correspondent banks totaling $12,700,000. There were no outstanding advances against these lines at June 30, 2007. Additionally, the Bank has a secured borrowing arrangement with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The maximum credit available under this agreement approximates $14,793,000 at June 30, 2007. Advances taken down against the Federal Home Loan Bank line amounted to $11,950,000 at June 30, 2007. In addition, Freedom Finance, LLC has a secured revolving line of credit with another commercial bank in the amount of $2,250,000. At June 30, 2007, $1,775,000 was outstanding on this line.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The principal goals of our asset and liability management strategy are the maintenance of adequate liquidity and the management of interest rate risk. Liquidity is the ability to convert assets to cash to fund depositor’s withdrawals or borrowers’ loans without significant loss. Interest rate risk management balances the effects of interest rate changes on assets that earn interest or liabilities on which interest is paid, to protect the Bank from wide fluctuations in its net interest income which could result from interest rate changes.

We attempt to ensure that adequate funds are available at all times to meet the needs of our customers. On the asset side of the balance sheet, maturing investments, loan payments, maturing loans, federal funds sold, and unpledged investment securities are principal sources of liquidity. On the liability side of the balance sheet, liquidity sources include core deposits, the ability to increase large denomination certificates of deposit, federal fund lines from correspondent banks, borrowings from the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank, as well as the ability to generate funds through the issuance of long-term debt and equity.

Interest rate risk is the effect that changes in interest rates would have on interest income and interest expense as interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities either re-price or mature. We attempt to maintain the portfolios of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with maturities or re-pricing opportunities at levels that will afford protection from substantial erosion of net interest margin, to the extent practical, from changes in interest rates.

We use a number of tools to manage our interest rate risk, including simulating net interest income under various scenarios, monitoring the present value change in equity under the same scenarios, and monitoring the difference or gap between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities over various time periods.

Quantitative information about the Bank’s interest rate risk is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We may not be able to successfully manage our growth or implement our growth strategies, which may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

During the last five years, the Bank has experienced significant growth, and a key aspect of our business strategy is our continued growth and expansion. We may not be able to successfully implement our growth strategy if we are unable to identify attractive markets, locations or opportunities to expand in the future. Our ability to manage our growth successfully also will depend on whether we can maintain capital levels adequate to support our growth, maintain cost controls, and asset quality and successfully integrate any businesses we acquire into our organization.

As we continue to implement our growth strategy by opening new branches or loan production offices, or acquiring branches or other banks, we expect to incur increased personnel, occupancy and other operating expenses. In the case of new branches, we must absorb those higher expenses while we begin to generate new deposits, and there is a further time lag involved in redeploying new deposits into attractively priced loans and other higher yielding earning assets.

If there is a significant economic downturn in our primary market area, our credit risk could be adversely affected and result in loss.

Because a majority of our loans are made in our primary market area and we have a concentration in commercial loans, our loan portfolio, as a whole, could be more severely impacted and our performance adversely affected if the primary market area suffers a significant or prolonged period of economic downturn. The Bank’s market area consists of an area extending from Surry County, with offices in Mount Airy and Pilot Mountain, North Carolina, north into the southern portions of Carroll and Patrick Counties, Virginia.

If market interest rates increase, our net interest income can be negatively affected in the short term.

The Bank has become more liability sensitive during 2007, due to the flat yield curve. Within the twelve-month window our interest-bearing liabilities (deposits) reprice sooner than our interest-bearing assets (loans). As a result, in a period of increasing interest rates, our net interest income can be negatively affected in the short term.

Financial services in our market area is highly competitive, with a number of commercial banks, credit unions, insurance companies and stockbrokers seeking to do business with our customers.

The large banks in our market can achieve greater economies of scale due to their financial strength and marketing clout. If these large banks focus more attention on our market, we could lose customers and our business could suffer. At the same time, our net interest margin could come under pressure if we are forced to compete locally with the smaller banks for deposits.

The costs of being a public company are proportionately higher for small companies like us due to the requirement of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission have increased the scope, complexity, and cost of corporate governance, reporting, and disclosure practices. These regulations are applicable to our company. We are experiencing, and expect to continue to experience, increased compliance costs, including costs related to internal controls and the requirement that our auditors attest to and report on management’s assessment of our internal controls, as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The regulations are expected to be applicable to us for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.
