The number of shares attributed to the reporting person as a 401(k) plan participant and expressed as equivalent shares has been calculated based on the closing price of company common stock as of March 31, 2013 and may change from time to time without the volition of the reporting person depending on the fair market value of the company's common stock and the amount of cash in the fund.
