        <footnote id="F1">Pursuant to the merger agreement, dated September 24, 2007 (the &quot;Merger Agreement&quot;), between the Issuer and Sims Group Limited (&quot;Sims&quot;),this option was assumed by Sims and converted into an option to purchase Sims American Depositary Shares (&quot;ADS&quot;).  Each option will be exercisable for Sims ADS equal to the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock subject to the option multiplied by 2.05 (rounded down to the nearest whole share), with the new exercise price determined by dividing the existing exercise price by 2.05 (rounded up to the nearest whole cent).  All other terms and conditions applicable to the original option remain in effect.</footnote>
