The deemed execution date of this transaction is the settlement date as provided by the Issuer's 401(k) Plan trustee/administrator. Shares acquired through payroll deduction and participation in Issuer's 401(k) Plan. This transaction qualifies as a non-discretionary transaction from a tax-qualified plan and is voluntarily reported on Form 4. Represents the approximate number of shares (excluding frationals) acquired by the trustee/administrator of the Issuer's 401(k) Plan for the Reporting Person's benefit, based on a statement of the trustee/administrator. The price per share is based on a statement provided by the Issuer's 401(k) Plan trustee/administrator. Th number of securities shown as being held in, acquired by or disposed of by the Issuer's 401(k) account for the Reporting Person's benefit is the approximate number of shares of common stock (excluding frationals) for which the Reporting Person has the right to direct the vote under the 401(k) plan. Such shares are not directly allocated to plan participants, but are instead held in a unitized fund consisting primarily of Issuer common stock, together with a small percentage of short-term investments. Participants acquire units of this fund. All options currently exercisable. This amended filing is being made to correct an error in the number of shares acquired upon exercise of vested, non-qualified stock options by the Reporting Person contained in the original report. /s/ David E.
