(1) | We estimated the present values using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We used the following assumptions and data: options are exercised near the end of their ten year term or earlier expiration following retirement; interest rates are based on U.S. Treasury Strips available on the grant date and maturing when the option expires; volatility of 21% using a 50/50 mix of historical and implied volatility; and our annual dividend yield as of the grant date. The actual value an officer receives from a stock option depends on future market conditions. It may be more or less than the present value shown. |

(1) | LTIP does not provide for awards of shares, units or other rights representing the right to receive compensation. LTIP provides for payouts based on the compound growth rate (CGR) in cumulative operating earnings per share during the three year measurement period. Payouts, if any, are in a 50/50 ratio of cash and JP common stock valued at the fair market value on the payment date. | |
(2) | Table amounts reflect current (2006) annual salary. If there were any payments in February 2008, they would be calculated as a percentage (which varies according to the participant and the level of CGR achieved) of salary during the last year in the period. | |
(3) | Payouts are contingent upon achieving specified levels of CGR, and service to the end of the three year measurement period. The target amount will be payable if the targeted CGR is achieved. The threshold amount will be payable if 50% of the targeted CGR is achieved; below 50% no payout will be made. The maximum amount will be payable if 150% or more of the targeted CGR is achieved. |
