Explanation of Responses: |
1. Represents shares withheld to pay for the purchase of the stock options and applicable taxes. |
2. 25% of the stock option shall vest and may be exercised on the one-year anniversary of the grant date, and thereafter an additional 1/48th of the stock option shall vest and may be exercised on each subsequent monthly anniversary of the grant date over the following thirty-six months. The stock option is completely vested in four years. |
3. In connection with BEA's stock option review and the resulting delay in filing its required periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission, BEA's registration statements on Form S-8 were not available for the issuance of shares thereunder. In accordance with applicable rules, the expiration date for stock options which would have otherwise expired during this period was extended until 30 days after BEA filed its required periodic reports. On November 15, 2007, BEA filed its required periodic reports. Accordingly, the expiration date of these options was extended until December 15, 2007. |
