Footnotes

F1: The reported transactions were effected for tax planning purposes.

F2: Reflects the inclusion of restricted shares inadvertently omitted from the reporting person's Form 4 filed on May 7, 2012 ("Original Form 4"). The number of securities reported on the Original Form 4 inadvertently reflected only the increase in shares held as a result of the lapsing of the restrictions on the first one-fifth of the earned restricted stock. In order to be consistent with the reporting of other earned restricted share awards, the reporting person is including the entire earned restricted stock amount in the holdings, subject to the schedule for the lapsing of restrictions on the remaining shares as stated in footnote (1) of the Original Form 4.

F3: Shares vested ratably on anniversaries of grant date.

F4: Shares vested upon achievement of certain earnings and safety goals.
