We, Hugo J. Warns and Keith Gay, certify that the views expressed in this research report accurately reflect my personal views about the subject securities or issuers; and We, Hugo J. Warns and Keith Gay, certify that no part of my compensation was, is, or will be directly or indirectly related to the specific recommendations or views contained in this research report. Our European Policy for Managing Research Conflicts of Interest is available at www.stifel.com The equity research analyst(s) responsible for the preparation of this report receive(s) compensation based on various factors, including Stifel’s overall revenue, which includes investment banking revenue. Our investment rating system is three tiered, defined as follows: BUY – We expect a total return of greater than 10% over the next 12 months with total return equal to the percentage price change plus dividend yield. HOLD – We expect a total return between -5% and 10% over the next 12 months with total return equal to the percentage price change plus dividend yield. SELL – We expect a total return below -5% over the next 12 months with total return equal to the percentage price change plus dividend yield. Occasionally, we use the ancillary rating of SUSPENDED (SU) to indicate a long-term suspension in rating and/or target price, and/or coverage due to applicable regulations or Stifel policies. SUSPENDED indicates the analyst is unable to determine a “reasonable basis” for rating/target price or estimates due to lack of publicly available information or the inability to quantify the publicly available information provided by the company and it is unknown when the outlook will be clarified. SUSPENDED may also be used when an analyst has left the firm. Of the securities we rate, 50% are rated Buy, 40% are rated Hold, and 3% are rated Sell and 7% are rated Suspended. Within the last 12 months, Stifel or an affiliate has provided investment banking services for 16%, 7%, 7% and 7% of the companies whose shares are rated Buy, Hold, Sell and Suspended respectively.
