") that become issuable under the plans by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar transaction.
(2)
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h)(1) under the Securities

st
of
each year commencing in 2008 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2017, the number of shares authorized for issuance under the EIP is automatically increased by a number equal to the lesser of (i) 5% of the aggregate number of shares
