( 2)  Represents vested shares of common stock withheld by Issuer to satisfy certain tax withholding obligations associated with the conversion of the restricted stock units.
( 3)  The restricted stock units vest and are exercisable in four equal annual installments on each January 7 of 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 (or the first market trading day during an open trading window under the Issuer's insider trading policy thereafter if the applicable vesting date is not on a market trading day during an open trading window).
( 4)  If reporting person's employment is terminated without cause or by him for good reason (as described in his employment agreement filed by Issuer with SEC on Form 8-K on 01/07/2008) and he executes a release and waiver of claims in favor of Issuer, he will receive accelerated vesting of any unvested equity for an additional 12 months following his termination date and all vested equity will be exercisable until the 12 month anniversary of his termination date (but no later than the equity's expiration date). If reporting person's employment is terminated for any other reason, all unvested equity will be forfeited without consideration.
