(1)  Merger and integration related costs incurred for the year ended December
     31, 2000 totaled $41.1 million. These costs relate primarily to transaction
     costs, severance and other merger and acquisition integration activities.
     As a result of merger integration activities, management identified certain
     information systems to be retired in 2001. Accordingly, the useful lives of
     these assets were shortened to reflect this decision, resulting in
     additional depreciation expense of approximately $11.4 million for the year
     ended December 31, 2000. In total, merger and integration related costs
     incurred for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $52.5 million ($36.8
     million after tax).

(2)  Reflects two months of results of the Ohio operations.

(3)  Merger and integration related costs incurred for the year ended December
     31, 2001 totaled $2.8 million. These costs relate primarily to transaction
     costs, severance and other merger and acquisition integration activities.
     As a result of merger integration activities, management retired certain
     information systems in 2001. Accordingly, the useful lives of these assets
     were shortened to reflect this decision, resulting in additional
     depreciation expense of approximately $9.6 million for the year ended
     December 31, 2001. In total, merger and integration related costs incurred
     for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $12.4 million ($8.0 million after
     tax).

     In 2001 we also incurred restructuring charges of $19.0 million ($11.8
     million after tax) relating to employee severance, related benefits and
     other employee related costs, lease termination fees related to duplicate
     facilities, and consulting and other fees.
