Letter to Participants
Dear Colleague,
On February 17, 2009 we
attempted to grant you a stock option that we later discovered was improperly
awarded and processed. Accordingly we wish to grant you new awards in place of
the prior attempted option grant. The details of your new awards are in the
attached Agreement to Grant Restricted Share Units and Stock Option (the “Grant
Agreement”). Please review and sign/electronically accept the attached Grant
Agreement as soon as possible, but in no event later than March 31,
2010. You
can agree to the terms on the following link:

We apologize for any
confusion and inconvenience caused by our failure to properly grant the original
options and appreciate your understanding. If you have any questions, please
contact Stock Admin or HR teams: Stock Admin main support Lo (#15818), ▇▇▇▇▇
(#16698) and ▇▇▇▇ (#16030). HR team is ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (#10349), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (#10532), ▇▇▇▇▇▇
