Pursuant to the Variable Plan, the Variable Right fully vested in conjunction with the IPO and was exercised on
February 1, 2008. At that time, the Company had no excess tax deductions from previous stock-based awards, and therefore
recognized additional income tax expense related to the non-deductible portion of the Variable Plan’s cumulative
compensation costs. This additional income tax expense was the result of a decrease in the fair value of the Vested Shares
from the vest date to the exercise date. Subsequent stock option exercises during 2008 resulted in an excess tax benefit that
reduced income tax expense.
