An equal number of dividend equivalents was issued to recipients of stock options and RSUs. Recipients of RSUs receive dividend equivalents when dividends are paid on shares of company stock. The value of each dividend equivalent related to stock options is calculated by accumulating dividends that would have been paid or payable on a share of company common stock. The dividend equivalents, with respect to stock options, expire after nine years from date of grant. The weighted-average fair value at the grant-date of the dividend equivalents on stock options was $6.35 in 2002 and $6.28 in 2001.

The fair value of stock options and dividend equivalents were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model. The model assumed the following at December 31, 2000. There were no options granted in 2002 or 2001.
