Exhibit A

Shares of common stock of the issuer are held in trust for the benefit of participating employees by the Stock Fund Trustees.  By the terms of the 401(k) Plan, the Stock Fund Trustees vote stock allocated to participant accounts as directed by participants.  Common stock held by the Stock Fund, but not yet allocated or as to which participants have not made timely voting directions, is voted by the Stock Fund Trustee (pursuant to its fiduciary responsibilities under Section 404 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended).  Investment direction is exercised by the Stock Fund Trustee (pursuant to its fiduciary responsibilities under Section 404 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended).

The Stock Fund Trustees and their beneficial ownership of shares of common stock of the issuer exclusive of responsibilities as a Stock Fund Trustee or Stock Fund sponsor, as the case may be, are as follows (such ownership being disregarded in reporting the 401(k) Plan’s ownership within this Schedule 13G).
