CONFIDENTIAL<br />

Above examples are for illustrative purposes. Numbers have been rounded for convenience, are only estimates for illustrative purposes and should not be relied upon.<br />

Assumptions may not reflect current market conditions. Corporate insiders should consult with securities counsel as to any reporting issues under <strong>Section</strong> 16 of the Securities<br />

Exchange Act of 1934 associated with receiving shares in kind, and any applicable laws.<br />

Note: GRATs involve complex tax and, in the case of insiders, securities laws issues that should be discussed with your own advisors and company counsel. Annuity will be<br />

paid for full term to the grantor or, in case of the grantor’s death, to the grantor’s estate. Calculation is based on 2000 Tax Court ruling in Walton v. Commissioner (115<br />

T.C. No. 41 (Dec. 22, 2000)).<br />
