The stock was sold pursuant to a trading plan adopted by Mr. Brown on September 16, 2014 in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The transaction will be reported through Form 144 and Form 4 filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as appropriate.

The Company undertakes no obligation to make any future disclosures in a Form 8-K in connection with any sales or purchases of Company stock by Mr. Brown or by any other executive officer.
