**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).

Dividend equivalent rights accrue with respect to unvested RSUs in the form of additional RSUs ("Dividend Units") when and as dividends are paid on the Issuer's common stock, and Dividend Units vest on the same dates and in the same relative proportions as the RSUs on which they accrue.
