*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Represents a grant of restricted stock units under the issuer's Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. Each restricted stock unit represents the contingent right to receive, upon vesting of the unit, one share of the issuer's common stock. One-fourth (1/4) of the units are scheduled to vest on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant as long as the reporting person remains in the service of the Company through the respective vesting date.
(2)	Represents a grant of performance-based restricted stock units under the issuer's Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan. The target number of units subject to the award is presented in the table. Subject to certain continued employment requirements, the units are scheduled to vest following the third anniversary of the date of grant if the issuer meets certain total shareholder return objectives. The number of units that vest may be 0% to 225% of the target number of units, depending upon performance. The maximum number of units that may vest is 7,425 (225% of the target number). Each performance-based restricted stock unit, once vested, will entitle the reporting person to receive one share of the issuer's common stock.
(3)	Includes 2,700 time-based restricted stock units, 3,300 performance-based restricted stock units and 3,500 shares of restricted stock issued under the issuer's Amended and Restated 2007 Performance Incentive Plan that are subject to vesting and forfeiture restrictions.
