(a) The cash value listed is based on the closing price of our common stock on April 16, 2007 of $33.63. The cash awards payable under the 2006 Program were not awarded under the LTIP.

(b) Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer chose not to participate in the 2006 Long Term Incentive Program to make more shares available for other employees.

In addition to the shares for the 2006 Program, the annual award of 12,500 shares of restricted common stock to non-employee directors, as described below on page 20 under “2006 Directors’ Compensation,” will be made from the LTIP. Other than such director equity compensation and our commitments to employees under the 2006 Program, it is not possible to predict the benefits or amounts that will be received by, or allocated to, particular individuals or groups eligible to receive future awards. The selection of officers, employees, consultants and non-employee directors who will receive future awards under the LTIP and the size and types of awards will be determined by the Committee and the Board of Directors.

The Company intends to provide five-year incentive compensation to its employees under the 2006 Program even if the amendment is not approved by the shareholders. If the amendment is not approved, the Committee will consider other compensation alternatives, including the payment of cash to employees.
