(2) | The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share has been estimated in accordance with Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. The computation is based upon 85% (see explanation in following sentence) of the average of the high and low price of the Registrants Common Stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market on September 30, 2002 because the price at which the options to be granted in the future may be exercised is not currently determinable. Pursuant to the Registrants 1993 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which plan is incorporated by reference herein, the Purchase Price of a share of Common Stock shall mean an amount equal to 85% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Enrollment Date or the Exercise Date, whichever is lower. |

STATEMENT UNDER GENERAL INSTRUCTION E REGISTRATION OF
ADDITIONAL SECURITIES
This Registration Statement registers additional shares of the Registrants Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Registrants 1993 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Accordingly, the contents of the previous Registration Statements on Form S-8 filed by the Registrant with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on (i) May 25, 1999 (File No. 333-79259), (ii) June 29, 2001 (File No. 333-64294), and (iii) February 21, 2002 (File No. 333-83110), are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement pursuant to General Instruction E of Form S-8.
The balance sheets as of September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000 and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 29, 2001 (the Audited Financial Statements) of the Registrant included in the Registrants Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 29, 2001 (the Annual Report), and incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement, were audited by Registrants former independent auditors, Arthur Andersen LLP, as indicated in their report with respect thereto dated October 22, 2001 (the Audit Report), and are included in reliance upon the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. The Registrant would ordinarily be required to obtain the consent of Arthur Andersen LLP to the incorporation into this Registration Statement of the Audit Report. However, Arthur Andersen LLP was indicted and found guilty of federal obstruction of justice charges and has informed us that it is no longer able to provide such consent. Under these circumstances, Rule 437a promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, permits the Registrant to file this Registration Statement without a written consent from Arthur Andersen LLP. The absence of such consent may limit recovery by investors on certain claims. In particular, and without limitation, investors may not be able to assert claims against Arthur Andersen LLP under Section 11 of the Securities Act. In addition, the ability of Arthur Andersen LLP to satisfy any claims (including claims arising from Arthur Andersen LLPs provision of auditing and other services to the Registrant) may be limited as a practical matter due to recent events regarding Arthur Andersen LLP.
