Explanation of Responses:

1. These shares were previously transferred from direct ownership into the reporting person's revocable trust, of which the reporting person is the settlor and trustee and holds a pecuniary interest in the trust's holdings and transactions. These shares include 546 shares which the reporting person had not previously reported beneficial ownership of which are beneficially owned by the reporting person through the reporting person's revocable trust.

2. Incentive Stock Options ("ISO") granted by the Issuer to the reporting person. All ISOs are currently exercisable. As of the date of this report, there are no shares underlying the ISOs held by the reporting person.

3. These 15,000 shares were acquired by the reporting person on November 22, 1011, upon the exercise of ISOs and were thereafter transferred by the reporting person into the reporting person's revocable trust. See footnote 1 above.

4. This amount reflects the remaining shares owned directly by the reporting person following the transfer of certain shares from direct ownership into the reporting person's revocable trust. See footnote 1 above.
