iBasis shareholders of record immediately prior to closing will receive a cash dividend of $113 million immediately following closing. In connection with payment of the dividend, outstanding common stock options will be adjusted to preserve their value. The transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and the approval of iBasis shareholders, is expected to be completed before the end of 2006.

In the second quarter of 2006, we incurred approximately $1.5 million in direct expenses related to this transaction, primarily related to investment banking, legal and accounting fees.
