Pursuant to the LTIP, Mr. Bramnick elected to satisfy his tax withholding obligation upon the exchange of common stock for RSU's by surrendering a number of shares of common stock having a value on the date of the exchange equal to the tax withholding obligation. This form is being filed to reflect the surrender of 229 shares of common stock to satisfy the grantee's tax withholding obligation.
