F1: This transaction represents a distribution of shares from the Issuer's Employee Stock Ownership Plan to someone other than the Reporting Person.

F2: The price per share is the closing price of the Issuer's common stock on the date of the reported transaction.

F3: The Reporting Person serves as co-trustee of this employee benefit plan and disclaims beneficial ownership of any Issuer securities held by this plan that are not allocated for his individual benefit, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 or for any other purpose. Currently only 1,824 shares held in this plan are allocated specifically for the Reporting Person's individual benefit.

F4: The number of securities shown as being held in or acquired by the Issuer's 401(k) account for the Reporting Persons' benefit are the approximate number of shares of common stock (excluding fractionals) for which the Reporting Person has the right to direct the vote under the Issuer's 401(k) plan. Such shares are not directly allocated to 401(k) plan participants, but are instead held in a unitized fund consisting primarily of Issuer common stock, together with a small percentage of short-term investments. 401(k) Plan participants acquire units of this fund.
