(2) The price for the acquisition of the shares from the issuer pursuant to the exercise of the options was paid in cash by the reporting person for all 166,666 shares, pursuant to the underlying nonqualified stock option award and subscription agreement between the issuer and the reporting person, and did not involve any subsequent sale of shares acquired pursuant to the option exercise.
(3) As a result of the reporting person's retirement from employment with the issuer in September 2012, a total of 333,334 options did not vest and were cancelled. The remaining 166,666 options have been exercised as reported herein.
