Footnotes

F1: This transaction should have been reported on a Form 4 in
2000, but no such report was filed due to an administrative
error. The number of shares and the exercise price have
been adjusted to reflect a 3-for-1 stock split of the
Company's Common Shares that occurred in April of 2002.

F2: The option vests in three equal annual installments
beginning January 1, 2003.
