(1) This number represents the total number of shares donated to two different charitable entities on the same day.
(2) On April 6, 2010, the reporting person was granted a replacement stock option with an exercise price of $6.50 in exchange for an outstanding stock option with an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The original stock option was cancelled. Under the exchange program, the vested portion of the eligible stock options as of the grant date of the replacement stock options were exchanged for stock options that were fully vested. The unvested portion of the exchanged stock options were exchanged for unvested replacement stock options that vest and become exercisable over a period of time that is equal to the remaining vesting period of the exchanged stock options, plus one year, subject to the participant's continued employment through the new vesting date.
(3) This option is a replacement stock option and the remaining unvested portion vests in four equal installments beginning on June 14, 2010.
(4) Twenty-five percent (25%) of these options become exercisable on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date granted.
(5) This option vests in five equal installments beginning on December 9, 2012.
