  • [F1]Shares simultaneously acquired and disposed represent shares withheld to pay Medicare taxes in connection with the payment of a Performance Share Award and the reporting person's deferral of the remaining performance shares under the Issuer's Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (NQDCP) (reported in Table II of this Form).
  • [F2]Based on a plan statement dated March 31, 2011.
  • [F3]The Deferred Stock Units were credited to the reporting person's account under the Issuer's NQDCP in lieu of a payment by the Issuer of performance shares under the Issuer's 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. The number of units credited to the reporting person's account was determined on a 1-for-1 basis equal to the number of shares of common stock that would have been paid, reduced by the number of shares having a value equal to the Issuer's Medicare tax withholding obligation as a result of the deferral of the payment of the shares. The units will be settled 100% in shares of the Issuer's common stock following the reporting person's termination of employment or such other date specified by the reporting person under the terms of the NQDCP.
