• F2Rule 10b5-1, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, allows significant shareholders of a company and their family members who are not in possession of material non-public information to establish pre-arranged plans to buy, sell, or otherwise transfer a specified number of shares of such company's stock. Once a plan is established, the significant shareholder or family member does not retain or exercise any discretion over transfers of stock under the plan and the pre-planned transfers may be executed at later dates as set forth in the plan, without regard to any subsequent material non-public information related to the company that the significant shareholder or family member may receive.
• F3This balance reflects previously reported transactions that occurred subsequent to the date of this gift transaction.
• F4This balance also reflects an adjustment in this Form 4 to increase the balance of shares owned by the reporting person's spouse by 52,982 shares in order to reflect that, as also discussed in footnote (6) below for a corresponding adjustment to the number of shares held jointly by the reporting person and her spouse, the 52,982 shares for a gift to a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code originally reported in a Form 4 filed by the reporting person on June 5, 2013, were transferred from shares held jointly by the reporting person and her spouse, rather than from the reporting person's spouse as originally reported. This adjustment and the corresponding adjustment discussed in footnote (6) below have no net effect on the total number of shares previously reported as beneficially owned by the reporting person.
• F5This gift to a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan that was entered into by the reporting person on June 4, 2012.
• F6These shares include 52,344 shares that the reporting person holds jointly with her spouse. Such number of jointly owned shares and thus the balance of shares reported herein as directly owned by the reporting person reflects (i) an adjustment in this Form 4 to decrease the number of jointly owned shares by 52,982 shares in order to reflect that, as also discussed in footnote (4) above for a corresponding adjustment to the number of shares owned by the reporting person's spouse, the 52,982 shares for a gift to a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code originally reported in a Form 4 filed by the reporting person on June 5, 2013, were transferred from shares held jointly by the reporting person and her spouse, rather than from the reporting person's spouse as originally reported; and (ii) a de minimis adjustment in this Form 4 to decrease the number of jointly owned shares by one share in order to correct the number of jointly owned shares.
• F7This gift to a charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan that was entered into by the reporting person on November 6, 2012.
• F8Shares held by a Dynasty Trust, of which the adult daughter of the reporting person is the initial beneficiary.
