Footnotes

The trust contributed 15,000 shares of common stock to an exchange fund in exchange for shares of the fund. The common stock was valued at $42.71 per share for purposes of determining the number of issuable shares of the exchange fund to the trust. For the next seven years, starting on the date of entering the exchange fund, if the trust redeems from the exchange fund, the trust will receive in return shares of the original stock which was contributed to the fund, valued at the current net asset value of the exchange fund.
The option, representing a right to purchase 2,250 shares, is exercisable in four equal annual installments beginning on May 15, 2016, which is the first anniversary of the date on which the option was granted.
