Because of performance targets achieved, the award was paid out on March 2, 2009, at a performance-adjusted rate of 125%. The shares coded "A" represent that portion attributable to this performance adjustment. The shares coded "F" were sold to cover income tax obligations associated with the payout. These transactions reflect the conversion of stock originally deferred for three years, and held in the Phantom 3/06 account, to directly-held common stock. Shares were sold to cover tax obligations. This transaction was performed in accordance with a 10b5-1 Plan signed by Mark Clark on April 6, 2007. On February 17, 2009,the Board approved a March 2, 2009 performance-adjusted restricted stock unit grant to Mr. Clark in the amount of 11,007 shares, of which 50% or 5,504 shares will be payable on March 2, 2012. Of these shares, 5,503 shares are subject to forfeiture if the performance goals are not met. The full grant can be adjusted upward by an additional 50% if the 3-year goals are achieved. This transaction reflects the extension and vesting of phantom stock to retirement or other termination of employment under arrangements approved by the Compensation Committee. Edward J.
