(SEE INSTRUCTION 4 OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL)

By checking ONE of the following boxes below (and not checking the box under “B. SHARES TENDERED AT PRICE DETERMINED UNDER TENDER OFFER”), the undersigned hereby tenders shares at the price checked. This action could result in none of the shares being purchased if the purchase price determined by the Company for the shares is less than the price checked below. A STOCKHOLDER WHO WANTS TO TENDER SHARES AT MORE THAN ONE PRICE MUST COMPLETE A SEPARATE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL FOR EACH PRICE AT WHICH SHARES ARE TENDERED. The same shares cannot be tendered, unless previously properly withdrawn as provided in Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase, at more than one price.

ARE BEING TENDERED

¨    $9.00   ¨    $9.10   ¨    $9.20 ¨    $9.30   ¨    $9.40   ¨    $9.50

¨ The undersigned wants to maximize the chance of having the Company purchase all of the shares the undersigned is tendering (subject to the possibility of proration). Accordingly, by checking this box instead of one of the price boxes above, the undersigned hereby tenders shares at, and is willing to accept, the selected price determined by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Offer. This action could result in receiving a price per share as low as $9.00.

ODD LOTS

(See Instruction 5 of the Letter of Transmittal)

Complete this section only if shares are being tendered by or on behalf of a person owning, beneficially or of record, an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares.

The undersigned either (check one box):

¨ is the beneficial or record owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares, all of which are being tendered; or

¨ is a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee that (a) is tendering for the beneficial owner(s), shares with respect to which it is the record holder, and (b) believes, based upon representations made to it by the beneficial owner(s), that each such person is the beneficial owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares and is tendering all of the shares.

CONDITIONAL TENDER

(See Instruction 6 of the Letter of Transmittal)

A tendering stockholder may condition his or her tender of shares upon the Company purchasing a specified minimum number of the shares tendered, all as described in Section 5 of the Offer to Purchase. Unless at least the minimum number of shares the shareholder indicates below is purchased by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Offer, none of the shares tendered by the shareholder will be purchased. It is the tendering shareholder’s responsibility to calculate the minimum number of shares that must be purchased if any are purchased, and each shareholder is urged to consult his or her own tax advisor before completing this section. Unless this box has been checked and a minimum specified, your tender will be deemed unconditional.

¨ The minimum number of shares that must be purchased from me, if any are purchased from me, is:                      shares.

If, because of proration, the minimum number of shares designated will not be purchased, the Company may accept conditional tenders by random lot, if necessary. However, to be eligible for purchase by random lot, the tendering stockholder must have tendered all of his or her shares and checked this box:

¨ The tendered shares represent all shares held by the undersigned.
