Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own
more than 10% of our outstanding common shares, to file with the SEC and the NYSE initial reports of ownership
and reports of changes in ownership of our common shares. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10%
shareholders are required by the SEC rules to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based
upon a review of filings with the SEC and written representations that no other reports were required, we believe
that all of our directors and executive officers and greater than 10% shareholders complied during fiscal 2013
with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, except Mr. Hayes, an outside director, who
inadvertently failed to disclose the sale of 1,660 of our common shares on June 17, 2013. This transaction was
reported on a Form 4 dated June 21, 2013.
