        <footnote id="F1">Correction of Form 4 previously filed on June 17, 2009, which (i) listed Mr. Mergenthaler as surrendering 39,602 shares to the company to satisfy withholding tax obligations, but (ii) failed to show the 54,520 performance based shares awarded to Mr. Mergenthaler on June 15, 2009 after achieving specific performance goals over the 2006-2009 period.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Includes restricted shares that are subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances.</footnote>
