Previously, on March 13, 2009, the Company announced changes to compensation benefits affecting our NEOs to comply with the executive compensation requirements of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended, including the implementing standards issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury ("EESA"). Pursuant to EESA, our NEOs will not receive any cash bonus or other forms of prohibited equity incentive compensation during the Company's participation in the Treasury's Capital Purchase Program ("CPP"). Any permitted variable equity compensation which is granted to our NEOs while the Company is a participant in the CPP is limited to one-third of the employee's annual compensation and does not become fully transferable until after the Company ceases to be a participant in the CPP.

The Modifications adjust the base salary rates of our NEOs other than that of David Nelms, our Chief Executive Officer, whose base salary remains unchanged. The new base salaries of our other NEOs are as follows: $800,000 for Roger Hochschild, President and Chief Operating Officer, $750,000 for Roy Guthrie, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, $750,000 for Diane Offereins, Executive Vice President, and $750,000 for Carlos Minetti, Executive Vice President. These Modifications, which are effective as of June 1, 2009, adjust the mix between fixed and variable compensation reducing the emphasis on variable compensation. Our NEOs' total compensation for fiscal 2009 is expected to be significantly lower than for fiscal 2008.
