1,485,077 restricted share units settleable in shares of the Company’s common stock.
(2) The weighted-average exercise price does not take into account the restricted share units discussed in

(3) Of these shares, (i) 9,995,360 shares remained available for issuance under the Company’s tax-qualified
employee stock purchase plan; and (ii) 22,765,741 shares remained available for issuance under the
Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan in connection with the exercise of stock options and stock
appreciation rights, the settlement of awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and phantom
shares, and the grant of unrestricted shares of common stock; however, no more than 1,265,178 shares
remain available for grant in connection with awards of unrestricted shares of common stock, stock-
settled phantom shares, and awards to non-Employee members of the Board. These shares are in addition
to the shares reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding awards included in column (a).
See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding the material features of
the above plans. Each of the above plans provides that the number of shares with respect to which
options may be granted, the number of shares of common stock subject to an outstanding option, and
the number of restricted share units granted shall be proportionately adjusted in the event of a
subdivision or consolidation of shares or the payment of a stock dividend on common stock, and the
purchase price per share of outstanding options shall be proportionately revised.
