        <footnote id="F1">On September 29, 2005, Mercury Real Estate Advisors, LLC (&quot;Advisors&quot;), a registered investment adviser, entered into a cash settled equity swap agreement with a securities broker (&quot;Broker&quot;) on behalf of Mercury Special Situations Fund LP (&quot;MSSF&quot;), for which Advisors serves as the investment adviser.  Mr.  David R. Jarvis and Mr.  Malcolm F. MacLean IV are managing members of Advisors.  The settlement date of the swap agreement is May 24, 2007. (Continued to Footnote 2)</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On such date, MSSF or Broker, as applicable, will be required to make a payment to the other such that the resulting economic effect of the swap arrangement will be as if (i) MSSF paid Broker $325,912.05, representing $75.7935 for each depositary receipt of NEN subject to this agreement as of September 29, 2005, and (ii) Broker paid to MSSF the market value of 4,300 depositary receipts of NEN as of May 24, 2007.  Any dividends received by Broker on account of the depositary receipts subject to this agreement will be paid to MSSF and MSSF will pay to Broker a finance charge.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">This swap arrangement is held directly by MSSF.  Mercury Securities II LLC (&quot;MS II LLC&quot;) is the general partner of MSSF.  MS II LLC disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by MSSF except to the extent of the pecuniary interest, if any, in such securities as a result of its partnership interest in MSSF.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">This swap arrangement was entered into by Advisors on behalf of MSSF.  Mr. Jarvis disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities held directly by MSSF, except to the extent of the pecuniary interest, if any, in such securities as a result of his membership interest in Advisors, which has a contingent right to receive a performance-based advisory fee from MSSF, or as a result of his membership interest in MS II LLC, of which he is a managing member.  That performance-based fee generally qualifies for the exemption set forth in Rule 16a-1(a)(2)(ii)(C).</footnote>
