        <footnote id="F1">The original transaction was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. On July 12, 2005, the reporting person entered into a prepaid variable forward contract with a securities brokerage firm.  Under the relevant contract, the reporting person had to deliver up to the 37,982 shares of the Issuer's common stock referenced in column 7 of Table II to the securities brokerage firm on July 12, 2007.  The number of shares the reporting person had to deliver on such date was a function of the closing price of the Issuer's common stock on such date. The amounts that would be in columns 2 and 8 of Table II were also a function of, among other things, the closing price of the Issuer's common stock on July 12, 2007.  Such prepaid variable forward contract terminated by its terms on June 12, 2007 and pursuant to its terms all 37,982 shares of the Issuer's common stock that were subject to such prepaid variable forward contract were retained by the securities brokerage firm on July 12, 2007.</footnote>
