        <footnote id="F2">Performance-based stock unit award which expires on 02/28/26, 5 years after the grant date. Fifty percent of the award, or 1,666 shares, may be earned when the consecutive 30 day average closing stock price per share of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market is $25.00 per share or more and is generally  subject to continued employment with the Company until the third anniversary of the grant date. The remaining 50% of the award, or 1,667 shares, may be earned when the consecutive 30 day average closing stock price per share of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market is $30.00 per share or more and is generally subject to continued employment with the Company until the third anniversary of the grant date. If either or both of these measures are achieved after the third anniversary of the grant date, the shares will be issued upon attainment of such stock price goals and if the grantee is employed by the Company on the date of attainment of such goals.</footnote>
