 connection with the sale of 2,961 shares of stock of CVB Financial Corp. by one of our directors, Kimberly Sheehy. According to Ms. Sheehy, these shares were inadvertently sold by her broker without instruction from Ms. Sheehy. The second exception known to us related to the late filing of two Form 4’s in connection with the inadvertent grant of a duplicate annual equity award of 10,000 shares of restricted stock in CVB Financial Corp. to our Executive Vice President and Chief Risk Officer, Yamynn De Angelis, which duplicate grant was rescinded once it was discovered. The two late Form 4 filings reflected the mistaken duplicate grant and its subsequent rescission.
