        <footnote id="F1">These shares are represented by restricted stock units and, upon vesting, each restricted stock unit is converted into one share of CAM common stock.  On November 9, 2005, the reporting person was granted the opportunity to earn performance-based restricted stock units. The number of restricted stock units was not determinable until the satisfaction of certain performance criteria for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, approval by the Board of Directors of the Company and certification of the issuer's financial results.  Pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement, the restricted stock units vest in three annual installments of 12.5%, 12.5% and 75% beginning February 28, 2007.</footnote>
