The following table lists the chief executives, in 2005, of the 100 largest publicly held companies in Illinois and northwest Indiana based on market capitalization as of March 31, 2006.

The CEOs are ranked by total fiscal year 2005 compensation, which includes salary, bonus, other cash compensation, stock grants and the estimated value of stock options granted.

TOTAL CASH

Amount earned during the most recent year. Represents salary, bonus and other items, such as moving expenses, cost of perquisites and benefits, company contributions to retirement programs, etc.

+

LONG-TERM INCENTIVES

Includes value of stock options and restricted shares, plus payments under other long-term-incentive programs. Companies can report the value of options based on assumed annual rates of appreciation for the option term or based on present value, using the Black-Scholes method. The table below uses an assumed 5 percent annual rate of appreciation. The Black-Scholes data are shown for comparison. Option values include replacement options.

=

TOTAL COMPENSATION

Includes cash and long-term incentives. Total is based on 5 percent options value model.

COMPANY PERFORMANCE: Earnings per share are fully diluted, include extraordinary items and are split-adjusted where appropriate. Revenue for financial-services companies is calculated by adding interest and non-interest income before expenses and subtracting gains on sales of assets. Stock return is based on company’s latest fiscal year total return and includes dividends.

*Sears Holdings’ revenue and EPS growth figures are pro forma, which treat Kmart Holding’s March 2005 acquisition of Sears Roebuck as if it had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2004.

**Annual reports and proxy statements had not been filed by press time.

Note: Data deemed not meaningful (N/M) indicates the person was not CEO for all of 2004-05, making a full year-to-year comparison impossible. Also, for companies with negative earnings per share in 2004 or 2005, the change cannot be expressed as a percentage.
