Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents shares received by the reporting person on March 7, 2009 pursuant to action taken on that date by the Company's Compensation Committee determining the number of shares payable to the reporting person under certain restricted stock units granted for the 2006-2008 grant period. The restricted stock units did not constitute derivative securities on the date of grant thereof.

2. The shares are subject to restrictions on sale that expire, either (i) as to 25% of the shares on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant of such shares, or (ii) in their entirety upon the grantee's death or disability prior to a termination of employment.

3. The shares sold by the Reporting Person were sold to cover the income tax due on previously granted restricted shares on which the restrictions lapsed on March 7, 2009, and shares received on March 7, 2009 under previously granted restricted stock units.

4. The option vests in four equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of the grant.
