Prior to this disposition, Mr. Sprecher beneficially owned 98.5% of the equity interest in CPEX and held an irrevocable proxy to vote the remaining 1.5%.

Following this purchase and pursuant to a Redemption Agreement between Mr. Sprecher and the other shareholders of CPEX, Mr. Sprecher now beneficially owns 100% of the equity interest in CPEX. Mr. Sprecher will not receive any of the proceeds from this disposition other than for the payment of his taxes related to such disposition by CPEX. The sale of these shares was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by CPEX on May 16, 2006.
(2) As previously reported, the reporting person also indirectly owns shares that are beneficially owned directly by the reporting person's spouse for which the reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership. The reporting person also owns shares directly.
