(1)	Immediately prior to the merger of L Curve Sub Inc. with and into the Issuer on August 17, 2007, Mr. Becker sold 357,591 shares of the Issuer (all of the Issuer shares he owned directly or indirectly) to Wengen Alberta, Limited Partnership, in exchange for partnership interests in Wengen valued at the product of 357,591 multiplied by $60.50. Wengen was the Parent of L Curve and, upon the effectiveness of the Merger, became the sole shareholder of the Issuer.
(2)	Upon the effectiveness of the merger of L Curve Sub Inc. with and into the Issuer on August 17, 2007, all outstanding options of the Issuer were cancelled. In connection with the merger, the Issuer adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Mr. Becker, the value of which was equal to (A) the total number of options held by Mr. Becker at the time of the merger multiplied by $60.50 minus (B) the aggregate exercise price of all of the options held by Mr Becker at the time of the merger.
