        <footnote id="F1">The trustees of the Lola Brown Trust No. 1B (the &quot;Brown Trust&quot;) are Badlands Trust Company LLC (&quot;Badlands&quot;), Susan L. Ciciora and Larry Dunlap.  Such trustees may be deemed to control the Brown Trust and may be deemed to possess indirect beneficial ownership of the Shares held by the Brown Trust.  However, none of the trustees, acting alone, can vote or exercise dispositive authority over Shares held by the Brown Trust.  Accordingly, Badlands, Ms. Ciciora and Mr. Dunlap disclaim beneficial ownership of the Shares beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Brown Trust.  In addition to serving as a trustee, Ms. Ciciora is also a beneficiary of the Brown Trust.</footnote>
