On May 20, 2010, Registrant’s shareholders, upon recommendation of Registrant’s Board of Directors, approved the May 2010 Amendment and Restatement of Registrant’s 2004 Performance Incentive Plan (“Plan”). The Plan (i) extends the term of the Plan to December 31, 2015, (ii) increases by 30 million the number of shares available for grant under the Plan and (iii) increases the number of shares available for issuance to a single individual under the Plan. The Plan is described in greater detail in Proposal 3 in Registrant’s Proxy Statement for the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (“Proxy Statement”). The Proxy Statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2010. The descriptions of the Plan contained herein and in the Proxy Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan (as amended and restated effective May 2010), which is filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
