(1) Mr. Oslick received 3,404 shares of the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation's Class C Non-Voting Common Stock upon net share settlement of his exercise of 6,667 stock appreciation rights with a grant price of $5.93 per share. That exercise entitled Mr. Oslick to receive 5,115 shares of the Corporation's Class C Non-Voting Common Stock, and 1,711 shares were retained by the Corporation to satisfy minimum tax withholding requirements arising from exercise. Each stock appreciation right represents the right to receive, upon exercise, the number of shares of the Corporation's Class C Non-Voting Common Stock equal to the excess of the fair market value of shares on the exercise date over the grant price.
(2) Includes 6,000, 3,300, and 3,000 shares of restricted stock granted to Mr. Oslick pursuant to the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation's 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan that will vest on March 31, 2013, March 31, 2014, and March 31, 2015, respectively, if the Corporation meets certain performance objectives related to business volume and portfolio charge-offs and delinquencies, as specified in the related award agreement.
(3) Transaction effected pursuant to a trading plan adopted by Mr. Oslick in accordance with Rule 10b5-1.
(4) Stock appreciation right exercisable beginning May 31, 2010 with respect to 6,666 shares, beginning May 31, 2011 with respect to 6,666 shares and beginning May 31, 2012 with respect to 6,667 shares.
