        <footnote id="F1">These phantom shares were reported in a June 1, 2005 Form 4 as a reduction of common shares owned by the reporting person because they entitled the reporting person to receive a cash settlement only and no common shares were ever to be issued.  They are now being moved out of the deemed investment upon the election of the reporting person to transfer funds under the Deferred Compensation Plan to an alternative investment account.  No common shares were disposed of in connection with this transaction.</footnote>
