Explanation of Responses:

1. Shares disposed of in the merger between Maytag and Whirlpool pursuant to which each share of Maytag common stock was exchanged for $10.50 in cash and .1196 of a share of Whirlpool common stock, with cash paid for any fractional Whirlpool share. On March 31, 2006, the effective date of the merger, the closing price of Whirlpool common stock was $91.47.

2. In the merger between Maytag and Whirlpool, each restricted stock unit or performance unit was vested in full and will be settled for a cash payment equal to $10.50 plus (.1196 (the exchange ratio) times $91.47 (the closing price of Whirlpool common stock on the closing date)) per unit.

3. In the merger between Maytag and Whirlpool, each outstanding option to purchase Maytag common stock was converted to an option to purchase shares of Whirlpool common stock on substantially the same terms, except that the number of shares was adjusted by multiplying the number of Maytag option shares by .2392 (rounded down to the nearest whole share) and the option exercise price was adjusted by dividing the exercise price of the Maytag option by .2392 (rounded up to the next cent).
