The Compensation Committee did not consider the pay versus performance disclosure in making its pay decision for any of the fiscal years shown.

Additional 402(v) Disclosure
“Compensation actually paid,” as required under SEC rules, reflects cash compensation actually paid as well as adjusted values to unvested and vested equity awards during the years shown in the table based on year-end stock prices, various accounting valuation assumptions, and projected performance modifiers but does not reflect actual amounts paid out for those awards which can only be determined upon the ultimate sale of the stock underlying such awards. “Compensation actually paid” generally fluctuates due to stock price achievement and varying levels of projected and actual achievement of performance goals. The Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. For a discussion of how our Compensation Committee assessed “pay-for-performance” and how our executive compensation program is designed to link executive compensation with the achievement of our financial and strategic objectives as well as stockholder value creation each year, see “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this proxy statement.
All information provided above under the “Item 402(v) Pay Versus Performance” heading will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates such information by reference.
