All participants in the offering purchasing in excess of $5,000 of common stock were granted a "right" to purchase one additional share of common stock, at a price of $19.70 per share, for every three shares of common stock purchased under the plan. Each "right" may be exercised at the rate of 1/7 per year beginning on August 1, 2012 and will expire on July 31, 2019. This total reflects routine accumulation of 4,333.2436 common shares acquired through the Company's 401(k) benefit plan as of August 1, 2012, based on internal records. The number of shares in the reporting person's 401(k) plan account has decreased due to administrative fees withheld by the plan administrator. /s/Patrick M. Covey/Joseph R. Paul by POA 2012-08-03
