Represents the value of the Reporting Person's Company Stock Fund Account in the Company's 401(k) plan as of October 31, 2001, expressed as share equivalents. As of such date, approximately 95.18% of the Company Stock Fund was invested in Company Common Stock, and the remainder was invested in cash. 2. Represents shares of restricted stock granted to the Reporting Person on October 23, 1997 and April 22, 1998 under the Issuer's Long Term Stock Incentive Plan as follows: (i) 11,251 shares which may vest over a five-year period, and (ii) 47,372 shares which may be earned for the five-year perform- ance period ending December 31, 2001 subject to the achievement of perform- ance goals, 50% of which may be distributed when earned and 50% of which may be distributed over a five-year period commencing on the date earned. 2A.On October 8, 2001, 13,620 shares of restricted stock vested under the Issuer's Long Term Stock Incentive Plan. On that date, the Company purchased all of these vested shares pursuant to Rule 16b-3(e). 3. Represents shares acquired for the Reporting Person's account under the Company's Salary and Bonus Deferral Plan. The shares allocated to the Reporting Person's account on the specified transaction dates were acquired by the plan trustee at various times and prices, resulting in the average prices indicated in the "Price" column. 4. Represents amounts allocated to, and the total holdings in, the Reporting Person's Company Stock Fund Account in the Company's Supplemental Savings and Investment Plan as of October 31, 2001, expressed as share equivalents. Because the trustee and record keeper for this plan utilize unit accounting for the Company Stock Fund rather than share accounting, these amounts represent share equivalents allocated to the Reporting Person's account rather than shares of Common Stock. 5. Represents an option granted to the Reporting Person on May 18, 2001 under the Issuer's Long Term Stock Incentive Plan to purchase 25,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock at $16.87 per share. --------------------------------------------- ----------------------- **Signature of Reporting Person Date ** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations.
