This report reflects an achievement award of 54% of the designated metrics. These shares will vest in equal amounts with the first on May 2, 2014 and the balance at the end of fiscal years 2015 and 2016, respectively, provided that Mr. Ghaffaripour remains actively and continuously employed with the Company through the applicable vesting dates. Transaction represents tax withholding in connection with the restricted stock units as described in note (1) above . Pursuant to the award terms, upon vesting issuer automatically reduces the number of shares payable in connection with the vesting of the award by the number of shares having a value equal to the tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of the award. These tax withholding transactions are exempt under Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The reporting person is reporting (using Code F) the shares not issued by the issuer as a result of the applicable tax withholding. By: Thomas R.
