Footnotes (2)

[F1]Stock options were granted to the reporting person. Vesting will occur annually from the date of grant over 4 years with 25% vesting each year.
[F2]The reporting person was granted restricted stock units (RSUs) which are subject to performance-based vesting. The RSUs are effective as of 5/2/06, and will vest on 12/1/07, based on the level of return on average equity (ROE) achieved by the Company at December 31, 2006 as follows: (i) if less than 90% of target, none will vest; (ii) if 90% but less than 100% of target 1,625 will vest; (iii) if 100% but less than 110% of target 3,250 will vest; and (iv) if 110% or greater of target 4,875 will vest. Vesting is subject to adjustment by the Compensation Committee as approved to take into account extraordinary items that may impact the calculation of ROE.
