Explanation of Responses:
1. These shares do not include the un-scheduled in-service distribution forfeiture of a 7.5% IRS penalty of 811 shares.
2. Converts on a 1 to 1 ratio
3. These units include the un-scheduled in-service distribution forfeiture of a 7.5% IRS penalty of 811 units.
4. Pursuant to the terms of the deferred compensation plan, the reporting person may be entitled to receive an issuance of some or all of the shares underlying such stock units (a) within 60 days of termination of employment with the Issuer depending upon the date of such termination or (b) by requesting an un-scheduled distribution forfeiture of a 7.5% IRS penalty. The 7.5% IRS penalty will be paid in the form of a reduction in the number of units to be distributed.
5. None
Remarks:
In the past, we reported the Deferred Compensation Plan Stock Units under Derivative Securities Beneficially Owned as two derivative holdings (one in the amount of 16,121 units and the second in the amount of 12,471 units). Since the exercisable date of 10/14/2004 for the 12,471 units previously reported has lapsed, we are now reporting these derivative holdings as one aggregate amount.
