Options vest in four installments on the first four anniversaries of the grant date except as otherwise noted. The exercise price of each option is equal to the fair market value of Allstate's common stock on the date of grant. For options granted prior to 2007, fair market value is equal to the average of high and low sale prices on the date of grant or, if there was no such sale on the date of grant, then on the last previous day on which there was a sale. For options granted in 2007, fair market value is equal to the closing sale price on the date of grant or, if there was no sale on the date of grant, then on the last previous day on which there was a sale. An asterisk (*) denotes reload options issued to replace shares tendered in payment of the exercise price of prior option awards. These reload options are subject to the same vesting terms and expiration date as the original options including becoming exercisable in four annual installments beginning one year after the reload option grant date. For option awards granted after 2003, the Compensation and Succession Committee eliminated the reload feature and no new option awards will be granted that contain a reload feature.
