(1) Represents shares subject to a restricted stock unit award that vests as set forth in footnote 3 below. Vesting schedules for each grant reflect total compensation targets for future years for the individual named executive officer based on the number of shares vesting and stock price assumption for each future year.

 

(2) Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of restricted stock unit awards received in fiscal year 2007, computed in accordance with FAS 123(R).

The holder of the restricted stock unit award does not have any voting, dividend or other ownership rights in the shares of common stock subject to the award unless and until the award vests and the shares are issued.
