(1) On October 20, 2010, the reporting person was granted an option to exercise 20,000 shares of Common Stock. The option vests in three annual installments of 6,666 shares on October 20, 2011, 6,667 shares on October 20, 2012 and 6,667 shares on October 20, 2013.
(2) On April 18, 2011, the reporting person was granted an option to exercise 31,483 shares of Common Stock. The option vests in three annual installments of 10,495 shares on April 18, 2012, 10,494 shares on April 18, 2013 and 10,494 shares on April 18, 2014.
(3) On April 18, 2011, the reporting person was granted 7,166 shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement. The shares are subject to forfeiture and are scheduled to vest one-third each on April 18, 2012, April 18, 2013 and April 18, 2014, pursuant to the terms of the Restricted Stock Agreement.
(4) On April 18, 2011, the reporting person was granted 10,749 shares of Common Stock pursuant to a Restricted Stock Agreement. All or a portion of the shares are subject to forfeiture based on pre-determined corporate financial performance criteria for fiscal years 2012 and 2013. Following the completion of fiscal years 2012 and 2013, a determination will be made if the threshold financial performance criteria have been met or exceeded. If the threshold level of performance is not met for any of the financial performance criteria, all of the Restricted Stock is forfeited. To the extent that the performance-based restrictions lapse as to some or all of the Restricted Stock, then the shares vest as follows: (i) two-thirds as of the date the performance-based restrictions lapse in fiscal 2013 and (ii) one-third on April 18, 2014.
(5) This number includes restricted stock awards.
