| Each of NACM, OpCap and NFJ is an investment adviser registered under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. NACM, OpCap and NFJ are wholly-owned subsidiaries of AGIMP, which is included on this Schedule 13G as the parent holding company of those subsidiaries, but which has no voting or dispositive power over the securities covered by this Schedule 13G. These four entities have certain officers in common. AGIMP is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allianz Global Investors of America, L.P. (“AGI LP”). | ||||||||||
| The securities reported herein are held by investment advisory clients or discretionary accounts of which NACM, OpCap or NFJ is the investment adviser. Investment advisory contracts grant to each of NACM, OpCap or NFJ voting and/or investment power over the securities held by each of their respective clients or in accounts that each of them manages. As a result, each may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities owned by such clients or accounts within the meaning of rule 13d-3 under the Act. | ||||||||||
| In conformity with the guidelines articulated by the SEC staff in Release No. 34 39538 (January 12, 1998) relating to organizations where related entities exercise voting and investment powers over the securities being reported independently from each other, this filing does not reflect securities beneficially owned by affiliates of AGI LP other than the filers. The voting and investment powers held by the filers are exercised independently from other affiliates of AGI LP. Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of the filers establish informational barriers that prevent the flow between them and the rest of AGI LP’s affiliates of information that relates to the voting and investment powers over the securities held in the accounts that NACM, OpCap and NFJ manage. Consequently, the filers report the securities over which they hold investment and voting power separately for purposes of Section 13 of the Act. | ||||||||||
| The filers believe that none of them, AGI LP or any of AGI LP’s other affiliates constitute a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Act and that they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein held by any of them or by any persons or entities for whom or for which NACM, OpCap, NFJ or such other affiliates provide investment management services. Each of the filers also disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of that filer’s pecuniary interest therein. | ||||||||||
| Item 5 | Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class. | |||||||||
| If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following ¨. | ||||||||||
| Item 6 | Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person. | |||||||||
| Each client of NACM, OpCap and NFJ has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of the securities reported herein. No one client holds more than five percent of such securities. | ||||||||||
