NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “S.E.C.”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of K•Swiss Inc. (the “Company” or “K•Swiss”) as of March 31, 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 have been included for the periods presented. The results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. The balance sheet at December 31, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in combination with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2006 presentation to conform to the 2007 presentation.

2. Earnings per Share

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares (denominator) used in the basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) computations (shares in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007				2006
	Shares	Per Share Amount			Shares	Per Share Amount
Basic EPS	34,623	$	0.52		34,257	$	0.73
Effect of Dilutive Stock Options	858		(0.01	)	1,084		(0.03	)
Diluted EPS	35,481	$	0.51		35,341	$	0.70

The following options were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options’ exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2007	Three Months Ended March 31, 2006
Options to purchase shares of common stock (in thousands)	133	70
Exercise prices	$31.51 – $35.89	$30.42 – $34.66
Expiration dates	February 2015 – February 2017	February 2015 – November 2015

3. Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

	March 31, 2007			December 31, 2006
Goodwill	$	4,618		$	4,618
Trademarks		2,761			2,761
Other		8			8
Less accumulated amortization		(2,687	)		(2,687	)
	$	4,700		$	4,700

5

There were no changes in the carrying amount of goodwill and intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The Company has performed the annual reassessment and impairment test as of January 1, 2007 to determine whether goodwill and intangible assets were impaired and determined there was no impairment.

4. Income Taxes

On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN No. 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN No. 48 creates a single model to address the accounting for the uncertainty in income tax positions and prescribes a minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before recognition in the financial statements.

The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with FIN No. 48 is a two-step process. The first step is a recognition process to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is presumed that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is a measurement process whereby a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is calculated to determine the amount of benefit/expense to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit/expense that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Any tax position recognized would be an adjustment to the effective tax rate. FIN No. 48 allows the Company to prospectively change its accounting policy as to where interest expense and penalties on income tax liabilities are classified. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company changed its accounting policy and began to classify interest expense and penalties on tax liabilities in income tax expense on its Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Prior to January 1, 2007, interest expense and penalties were recognized as a reduction to net interest income and an increase to selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Earnings. For federal tax purposes, the Company’s 2003 through 2006 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under the normal three year statute of limitations. Generally, for state tax purposes, the Company’s 2002 through 2006 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under a four year statute of limitations, however, certain states may keep their statute open for six to ten years.

Upon the adoption of FIN No. 48, the Company recognized an adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $2,575,000 and an adjustment to tax liability relating to FIN No. 48 of $3,365,000, which includes interest of $270,000.

5. Stockholders’ Equity

Under its stock repurchase program, the Company purchased 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2007 for a total expenditure of approximately $269,000. In the first quarter of 2007, the Company adopted FIN No. 48 and in accordance with FIN No. 48, recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $2,575,000 to beginning retained earnings.

6. Segment Information

The Company’s predominant business is the design, development and distribution of athletic footwear. Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are from sales of footwear products. The Company is organized into three geographic regions: the United States, Europe and Other International operations. The following tables summarize segment information (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Corporate assets and eliminations (3)		230,468			229,718
	$	426,025		$	404,560

(1) Revenue is attributable to geographic regions based on the location of the Company’s subsidiaries.

(2) Corporate expenses include expenses such as salaries and related expenses for executive management and support departments such as accounting and treasury, information technology, human resources and legal which benefit the entire corporation and are not segment/region specific.

(3) Corporate assets include cash and cash equivalents and intangible assets.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 approximately 14% and 19%, respectively, of revenues were attributable to one customer.

7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 creates a single definition of fair value, along with a conceptual framework to measure fair value, and to increase the consistency and the comparability in fair value measurements and in financial statement disclosures.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities – Including an Amendment to FASB Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 improves financial reporting by giving entities the opportunity to mitigate earnings volatility by electing to measure related financial assets and liabilities at fair value rather than using different measurement attributes. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected should be reported in earnings. Upon initial adoption, differences between the fair value and carrying amount should be included as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings.

SFAS Nos. 157 and 159 are effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Earlier application is permitted as of the beginning of the fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007. The Company will not early adopt SFAS Nos. 157 and 159 and is currently assessing the impact of implementing SFAS Nos. 157 and 159 on its financial position and results of operations.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Analyst Reports

“Forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”), include certain written and oral statements made, or incorporated by reference, by us or our representatives in this report, other reports, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “S.E.C.”), press releases, conferences, or otherwise. Such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate, or imply future results, performance, or achievements, and may contain the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” or any variations of such words with similar meaning. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict; therefore, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in any such forward-looking statements. Investors should carefully review the risk factors set forth in other reports or documents we file with the S.E.C., including Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K. Some of the other risks and uncertainties that should be considered include, but are not limited to, the following: international, national and local general economic and market conditions; the size and growth of the overall athletic footwear and apparel markets; the size of our competitors; intense competition among designers, marketers, distributors and sellers of athletic footwear and apparel for consumers and endorsers; market acceptance of: our training shoe line, our new Limited Edition product, our basketball shoe line, our classic and non-performance product, Royal Elastics footwear (including the L.A.M.B. product) and our apparel product; demographic changes; popularity of particular designs, categories of products, and sports; seasonal and geographic demand for our products; the size, timing and mix of purchases of our products; performance and reliability of products; difficulties in anticipating or forecasting changes in consumer preferences, consumer demand for our product, and various market factors described above; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results, including, without limitation, the fact that advance “futures” orders may not be indicative of future revenues due to the changing mix of futures and at-once orders; potential cancellation of future orders; our ability to continue, manage or forecast our growth and inventories; new product development and commercialization; the ability to secure and protect trademarks, patents, and other intellectual property; inadvertent and nonwillful infringement on others’ trademarks, patents and other intellectual property; difficulties in implementing, operating, maintaining, and protecting our increasingly complex information systems and controls including, without limitation, the systems related to demand and supply planning, and inventory control; difficulties in implementing SAP information management software; interruptions in data and communication systems; concentration of production in China; changes in our effective tax rates as a result of changes in tax laws or changes in our geographic mix of sales and level of earnings; potential earthquake disruption due to the location of our warehouse and headquarters; potential disruption in supply chain due to various factors including but not limited to natural disasters, epidemic diseases or customer purchasing habits; customer service; adverse publicity; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; dependence on distributors; dependence on major customers; concentration of credit risk; business disruptions; increased costs of freight and transportation to meet delivery deadlines; increased labor costs; the effects of terrorist actions on business activities, customer orders and cancellations, and the United States and international governments’ responses to these terrorist actions; changes in business strategy or development plans; general risks associated with doing business outside the United States, including, without limitation, exchange rate fluctuations, import duties, tariffs, quotas and political and economic instability; changes in government regulations; liability and other claims asserted against us; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; and other factors referenced or incorporated by reference in this report and other reports.

K•Swiss (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors can arise from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Investors should also be aware that while we communicate, from time to time, with securities analysts, it is against our policy to disclose to them any material non-public information or other confidential commercial information. Accordingly, investors should not assume that we agree with any statement or report issued by any analyst irrespective of the content of the statement or report. Furthermore, we have a policy against issuing or confirming financial forecasts or projections issued by others. Thus, to the extent that reports issued by securities analysts or others contain any projections, forecasts or opinions, such reports are not our responsibility.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

9

We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical accounting policies affect working capital account balances, including the policies for revenue recognition, the reserve for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory reserves. These policies require that we make estimates in the preparation of our financial statements as of a given date.

Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

Overview

Our total revenues decreased 18.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2007 from the three months ended March 31, 2006. Our overall gross profit margins, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 47.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to 46.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as a result of product mix changes and international sales becoming a larger portion of revenue. Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 30.1% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from 23.0% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2006 due mainly to increases in compensation and compensation related expenses and advertising. At March 31, 2007, our total futures orders with start ship dates from April through September 2007 were $172,192,000, a decrease of 19.8% from March 31, 2006. Of this amount, domestic futures orders were $88,719,000, a decrease of 37.9%, and international futures orders were $83,473,000, an increase of 16.0%. Net earnings and net earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2007 decreased 27.8% and 27.1%, respectively, to $17,997,000, or $0.51 per diluted share, compared with $24,910,000, or $0.70 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of certain items in the consolidated statements of earnings relative to revenues.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2007	2006
Revenues	100.0%	100.0%
Cost of goods sold	53.0	53.6
Gross profit	47.0	46.4
Selling, general and administrative expenses	30.1	23.0
Interest income, net	1.8	0.9
Earnings before income taxes	18.7	24.3
Income tax expense	4.0	7.7
Net earnings	14.7	16.6

Revenues

K•Swiss brand revenues decreased to $118,595,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $147,111,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, a decrease of $28,516,000 or 19.4%. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was the result of a decrease in the volume of footwear sold offset by higher average wholesale prices per pair. The volume of footwear sold decreased to 4,178,000 pair for the three months ended March 31, 2007, from 5,443,000 pair for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The decrease in the volume of footwear sold for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was primarily the result of decreased sales of the training, Classic and children’s categories of 33.1%, 26.3% and 18.3%, respectively, offset by increased sales of the tennis category of 4.5%. This decrease in volume for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was offset by a higher average wholesale price per pair of $27.63 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $26.47 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of 4.4%, which resulted from a mix of sales.

Total Revenues	$	122,568	$	149,984	(18.3%)

Customer acceptance of our domestic product has been weak and is likely to continue for the near term. We have recently hired several individuals in product design and management; however, it will take additional time for the full impact of the contribution of these individuals to affect our business.

Gross Margin

Overall gross profit margins, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 47.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2007, from 46.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was affected by product mix changes and international sales becoming a larger portion of revenues. Our gross margins may not be comparable to our competitors as we recognize warehousing costs within selling, general and administrative expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Overall selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $36,877,000 (30.1% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007, from $34,426,000 (23.0% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $2,451,000 or 7.1%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2007 was the result of increases in compensation and compensation related expenses and advertising for the three months ended March 31, 2007. Compensation expenses, which includes commissions, bonus/incentive related expenses and employee recruiting and relocation expenses, increased 9.0% primarily due to an increase in headcount, offset by a decrease in bonus/incentive related expenses that were calculated in accordance with our bonus formula under our Economic Value Added incentive program. Advertising expenses increased 3.5% mainly due to an increase in our international advertising as part of a strategic effort to drive higher revenues, offset by a decrease in domestic advertising expenses from an effort to reduce costs as a result of declining domestic revenues. Corporate expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2007 were comparable to those recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Interest, Other and Taxes

Overall net interest income was $2,211,000 (1.8% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to $1,301,000 (0.9% of revenues) for the three months ended March 31, 2006, representing an increase of $910,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same prior year period. This increase in net interest income was the result of higher average interest rates and higher average balances during the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Our effective tax rate was 21.3% and 31.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Starting January 1, 2005, provision has not been made for United States income taxes on earnings of selected international subsidiary companies as these are intended to be permanently invested. The decrease in the effective tax rate was mainly due to our geographic mix of sales, as international sales have become a larger portion of revenues, with these subsidiaries being profitable and to an increase in our tax-exempt interest income.

Net earnings decreased 27.8% to $17,997,000, or $0.51 per share (diluted earnings per share), for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $24,910,000, or $0.70 per share (diluted earnings per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Adoption of FIN No. 48

On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN No. 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN No. 48 creates a single model to address the accounting for the uncertainty in income tax positions and also prescribes a minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before recognition in the financial statements.

The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with FIN No. 48 is a two-step process. The first step is a recognition process to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it is presumed that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is a measurement process whereby a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is calculated to determine the amount of benefit/expense to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit/expense that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Any tax position recognized would be an adjustment to the effective tax rate. FIN No. 48 allows the Company to prospectively change its accounting policy as to where interest expense and penalties on income tax liabilities are classified. Effective January 1, 2007, the Company changed its accounting policy and began to classify interest expense and penalties on tax liabilities in income tax expense on its Consolidated Statement of Earnings. Prior to January 1, 2007, interest expense and penalties were recognized as a reduction to net interest income and an increase to selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Earnings. For federal tax purposes, the Company’s 2003 through 2006 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under the normal three year statute of limitations. Generally, for state tax purposes, the Company’s 2002 through 2006 tax years remain open for examination by the tax authorities under a four year statute of limitations, however, certain states may keep their statute open for six to ten years.

Upon the adoption of FIN No. 48, the Company recognized an adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $2,575,000 and an adjustment to tax liability relating to FIN No. 48 of $3,365,000, which includes interest of $270,000.

Backlog

At March 31, 2007 and 2006 total futures orders with start ship dates from April 2007 and 2006 through September 2007 and 2006 were approximately $172,192,000 and $214,723,000, respectively, a decrease of 19.8%. The 19.8% decrease in total futures orders is comprised of a 28.4% decrease in the second quarter 2007 futures orders and a 9.2% decrease in the third quarter 2007 futures orders. At March 31, 2007 and 2006, domestic futures orders with start ship dates from April 2007 and 2006 through September 2007 and 2006 were approximately $88,719,000 and $142,770,000, respectively, a decrease of 37.9%. At March 31, 2007 and 2006, international futures orders with start ship dates from April 2007 and 2006 through September 2007 and 2006 were approximately $83,473,000 and $71,953,000, respectively, an increase of 16.0%. “Backlog,” as of any date, represents orders scheduled to be shipped within the next six months. Backlog does not include orders scheduled to be shipped on or prior to the date of determination of backlog. The mix of “futures” and “at-once” orders can vary significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year and therefore “futures” are not necessarily indicative of revenues for subsequent periods. Orders generally may be canceled by customers without financial penalty. We believe our rate of customer cancellations of domestic orders approximates industry averages for similar companies. Customers may also reject nonconforming goods. To date, we believe we have not experienced returns of our products or bad debts of our customers materially in excess of industry averages for similar companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We experienced net cash inflows of approximately $9,922,000 from our operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to net cash outflows of approximately $4,000,000 from our operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in operating cash inflows from the prior year is due primarily to changes in accounts receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, offset by changes in inventories and prepaid expenses and other assets as well as a decrease in net earnings.

We had net outflows of cash from our investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment. The increase in investment in 2007 is due to the implementation of SAP information management software. During 2007 and over the next few years we will continue our implementation of SAP information management software in our domestic and international operations.

12

We had net outflows of cash from our financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 primarily due to the payment of cash dividends and to the purchase of our outstanding stock under our current stock repurchase program, partially offset by proceeds from stock options exercised.

On October 26, 2004, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to supplement prior stock repurchase programs, which allows us to repurchase through December 2009 up to an additional 5,000,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock from time to time on the open market, as market conditions warrant. We adopted this program because we believe repurchasing our shares can be a good use of excess cash depending on our array of alternatives. From August 1996 through April 25, 2007 (the day prior to the filing of the Form 10-Q) we have purchased an aggregate of 25.3 million shares at an aggregate cost totaling approximately $164,499,000 (at an average price of $6.50 per share) under all of our stock repurchase programs. See Part II – Other Information, Item 2. Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

No other material capital commitments existed at March 31, 2007. Depending on our future growth rate, funds may be required by operating activities. With continued use of our revolving credit facility and internally generated funds, we believe our present and currently anticipated sources of capital are sufficient to sustain our anticipated capital needs for the remainder of 2007. At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 there was no funded debt. At March 31, 2007 we were in compliance with all relevant covenants under our credit facilities. We did not enter into off-balance sheet arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2007 or 2006, nor did we have any off-balance sheet arrangements outstanding at March 31, 2007 or 2006.

Our working capital increased $12,465,000 to $336,843,000 at March 31, 2007 from $324,378,000 at December 31, 2006. Working capital increased during the three months ended March 31, 2007 mainly due to an increase in accounts receivable offset by decreases in inventory and prepaid expenses and other assets and an increase in accrued liabilities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2007, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer along with the Company’s Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2007 are effective in ensuring that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the S.E.C.’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) have come to management’s attention that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10.14

Please do not complete this Election Form if the vesting schedule in your Plan applicable to all employer contributions is at least as rapid as Three-Year Cliff Vesting or Six-Year Graded Vesting

PPA VESTING ELECTION FORM

for

Plan Name: K-Swiss 401K and Profit Sharing Plan

Plan Number: 40293

The Pension Protection Act of 2006, or PPA, requires that Nonelective Employer Contributions vest pursuant to a schedule that is at least as rapid as three-year cliff or six-year graded vesting. For a plan not maintained pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement, this new PPA rule is effective with respect to allocations for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006. As described in the enclosure, Fidelity will amend the CORPORATEplan for Retirement prototype document to reflect these new vesting requirements within the time limits prescribed by the PPA, taking into account any extensions ultimately available (the “PPA Amendment”).

If the Plan is maintained pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement, you must consult with your attorney to determine when the PPA’s vesting provisions apply to the Plan. If such effective date is later than the first day of the first Plan Year beginning after December 31, 2006, you must complete Section 2 only below.

Otherwise, please use this election form to elect a PPA compliant vesting schedule to be applicable to Nonelective Employer Contribution allocations in the Plan for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006, if the vesting schedule is currently not in compliance. Please also elect whether the Plan will follow Fidelity’s general approach and apply the new, PPA compliant vesting schedule to the entire Nonelective Employer Contributions Account balance for Participants with at least one Hour of Service on or after the date the new vesting schedule is applicable or will apply the new, PPA compliant vesting schedule only to allocations for Plan Years beginning on and after the date the new vesting schedule is applicable. As noted in the enclosure, the PPA Amendment will not permit the new, PPA compliant vesting schedule to apply to Participants who do not have an Hour of Service on or after the effective date of the new vesting schedule.

Section 1. Vesting of Nonelective Employer Contributions.

(a) Vesting Schedule Applicable to Nonelective Employer Contributions:

Vesting Schedule for Nonelective Employer Contributions:

¨ Option 1. A Participant’s Account balance derived from Nonelective Employer Contributions shall be fully and immediately vested.

¨ Option 2. A Participant’s Account balance derived from Nonelective Employer

Contributions shall be nonforfeitable upon the Participant’s completion of three years of Vesting Service (Three-Year Cliff Vesting).

x Option 3. A Participant’s Account balance derived from Nonelective Employer Contributions shall vest according to the following schedule. (You must check A or B below. If you select B, the percentages you select must be at least as great as those under A for each corresponding number of years of Vesting Service.):

Years of Vesting Service	x A. Nonforfeitable Percentage	¨ B. Nonforfeitable Percentage
0	0	¨
1	0	¨
2	20	¨ (must be at least 20)
3	40	¨ (must be at least 40)
4	60	¨ (must be at least 60)
5	80	¨ (must be at least 80)
6	100	¨ (must be 100)

(b) Grandfathered application of Prior Vesting Schedule to Account Balance Derived from Nonelective Employer Contributions for Plan Years Beginning Prior to 2007:

The CPR document will provide that the vesting schedule you selected under Section 1(a) of this Form will apply to an affected Participant’s entire Nonelective Employer Contribution Account balance, unless the Employer elects to grandfather the prior vesting schedule. Therefore, mark the blank below only if you want the election under Section 1(a) of this Form to apply only to the portion of a Participant’s Account balance derived from Nonelective Employer Contributions for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006.

x The Option elected under Section 1(a) above shall apply to only the portion of a Participant’s Account balance derived from Nonelective Employer Contributions for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006.

Section 2. Delayed Effective Date due to a Collective Bargaining Agreement.

¨ The Plan is maintained pursuant to one or more collective bargaining agreements. The Employer has consulted with its attorney, and based on that consultation, has determined that the PPA’s vesting provisions are not effective with respect to the Plan for Plan Years beginning after December 31, 2006. Instead, such provisions are effective with respect to the Plan for Plan Years beginning after December 31^st, 200   (cannot be later than December 31, 2008). The Employer hereby agrees to advise Fidelity as soon as practicable regarding the PPA compliant vesting schedule that the Employer will incorporate into the Plan and to timely adopt an amendment reflecting such PPA compliant schedule with Fidelity’s consent, as provided in the Service Agreement with respect to the Plan between the Employer and Fidelity.
