  • [F1]Awards were made as of 5/12/09, consistent with Company's practice of using mix of options and RSUs to provide long-term, performance-based pay. Options vest in equal annual installments over 4 years. RSUs vest on 12/31/11 to the extent certain performance metrics are met or exceeded as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. As noted in Company's CD&A in its 2009 Proxy Stmt, American Recovery Reinvestment Act imposed executive compensation restrictions on Capital Purchase Program participants, incl. bonus restrictions. Treasury has not issued guidance on scope of restrictions. Company may determine in the future that it must reduce, revoke, cancel or impose other conditions to comply with ARRA or other laws, in which case it anticipates granting replacement equity awards to the extent permissible under applicable law.
