<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">In determining the number of RSUs earned by Mr.&nbsp;Patel, the Committee
recognized Mr.&nbsp;Patel&#146;s performance in various transition activities,
including his work following his originally targeted termination date at the
end of 2009.&#160; The earned RSUs will vest
50% on each of February&nbsp;26, 2010 and February&nbsp;28, 2011, subject to
the Executive Officer being a service provider (as defined in the Plan) through
such date.&nbsp; The RSUs that were not earned will be forfeited.&#160; Each RSU represents a contingent right to
receive one share of the Company&#146;s common stock on the vesting date.&nbsp; The
grants were made as part of the Company&#146;s annual focal awards process for
2009.&nbsp; The awards were made subject to the standard terms and conditions
of the form of restricted stock unit agreement under the Plan.&nbsp; Pursuant
to the severance plans with each of Messrs.&nbsp;Blackmore and Patel, all
outstanding equity compensation awards fully vest and become exercisable in the
event of termination of employment by the Company other than for cause.</font></p>
