ITEM 2.05 COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH EXIT OR DISPOSAL ACTIVITIES.

On May 4, 2007, the Company announced a plan to cease production at its plant in
Jarvenpaa, Finland. In its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 9, 2007,
the Company reported that the implementation and timing of this plan were
subject to local legal requirements and works council and trade union
notifications and consultations. Given these requirements, the Company was at
the time unable to determine the amount of expense to be incurred for severance
and termination payments, and therefore was unable to determine total costs
expected to be incurred.

The Company has now determined that the plan will not
result in any severance or termination charges. Salary payments to terminated
employees will continue during applicable mandatory notice periods. The Company
still expects to incur total cash charges of between $1 million and $2 million
for equipment relocation during the third and fourth quarters of 2007. The
Company does not expect to incur any other significant cash or non-cash charges.
