        <footnote id="F1">The transaction reported on this Form 4 was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan entered into by the Reporting Person and was effected to satisfy the Reporting Person's tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of previously granted shares of restricted stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Represents a weighted average sales price; the sales prices ranged from $24.79 to $25.39. Upon request, the full sale information regarding the number of shares sold at each price increment will be provided to the Commission, the issuer or a security holder of the issuer.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">This Form 4 corrects clerical errors originally made in the Reporting Person's Form 4 that was filed on June 16, 2011, which overstated her total common stock holdings by 6,456 shares, and the Reporting Person's Form 4 that was filed on February 20, 2014, which overstated her total common stock holdings by 14,289 (including the 6,456 shares overstated in all Form 4s filed by the Reporting Person after June 16, 2011). The overstatements in each instance resulted from the inclusion of performance-based awards that had actually been cancelled prior to the date of the applicable Form 4 filing due to the failure to meet performance conditions. These corrections apply to all other Form 4s filed by the Reporting Person after June 16, 2011 and February 20, 2014, respectively.</footnote>
