        <footnote id="F1">Balance represents the grant of restricted stock.  The restricted stock will fully cliff vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">In addition to this restricted stock grant, Mr. Davis also received a grant of 12,500 shares of restricted stock on 2/9/2011 that cliff vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant; however, vesting is also contingent upon the achievement of pre-specified performance targets.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Balance includes all non-vested stock grants but does not include 50,000 shares of restricted stock (inclusive of the 12,500 noted in Footnote 2 above), with vesting contingent upon the achievement of pre-specified performance targets.</footnote>
