Option/SAR Grants in Last Fiscal Year
 
The following table sets forth information regarding stock options to purchase shares of our common stock granted to the Named Executive Officers during fiscal 2006 and the potential realizable value at certain assumed rates of stock price appreciation for the option term. These assumed rates are in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not represent our estimate of future stock price. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will be dependent on the future performance of our common stock.

(1) All of these options to purchase shares of our common stock were granted under our 2004 Performance Incentive Plan and were granted at fair market value on the date of grant. Options become exercisable as to 25% of the total number of shares granted on the first anniversary of the grant date and 6.25% at the end of each three-month period thereafter, except that the option grant to Mr. Coyne covering 250,000 shares of our common stock vests in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date. All options have a term of 10 years, subject to earlier termination in connection with termination of employment. The Compensation Committee administers the 2004 Performance Incentive Plan and has broad discretion and authority to construe and interpret the plan.
