        <footnote id="F1">This amendment is being filed for the sole purpose of correcting an inadvertent mistake in the original Form 4 regarding the vesting terms of the restricted stock award.  The correct vesting terms are set forth in footnote #2 below.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The acquisition of the 75,915 shares of common stock reflects an award of restricted stock on January 6, 2016, pursuant to the Company's 2009 Restricted Stock/Unit Plan.  Fifty percent (50%) of the shares underlying the award vest upon the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 50% of the shares vest on the second anniversary, subject to the participant's continued employment with the Company and subject to accelerated vesting upon the death, disability or retirement of the participant, or upon a change in control of the Company.</footnote>
