Explanation of Responses:
1. The consideration for the sale of these shares was 11,191,526 shares of E D & F Man Holdings Limited, a privately held English limited liability company ("ED&F"). The closing price of Westway Group, Inc.'s (f/k/a Shermen WSC Acquisition Corp.) (the "Issuer") common stock ("Shermen Common Stock") on the date of the reported transaction, May 28, 2009, was $5.95 per share.
2. The shares sold in the reported transaction were directly beneficially owned by Trustcorp (Jersey) Limited, as trustee of E D & F Man 2009 Employee Trust (the "Trustee"), and indirectly beneficially owned, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act 1934, as amended, by ED&F, as settlor of E D & F Man 2009 Employee Trust (the "Trust"). The Trustee disclaims any pecuniary interest in the shares sold in the reported transaction and the shares it continues to hold. The Trustee held the shares sold in the reported transaction, and continues to hold the remaining shares not sold, for the benefit of the beneficiaries of the Trust who are employees and former employees of ED&F and its subsidiaries excluding UK persons. ED&F has no ownership of the Trust property, is not a beneficiary of the Trust and has no legal title to the Trust fund.
3. Received as part of the consideration for the mergers of Westway Terminal Company Inc. and Westway Feed Products, Inc. (privately held subsidiaries of ED&F) into wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Issuer in connection with the Issuer's acquisition of the bulk liquid storage and liquid feed supplements business of ED&F (the "Acquisition"). On May 28, 2009, the date of the Acquisition, the closing price of Shermen Common Stock was $5.95 per share. Westway Holdings waived its right to a special dividend of $1.00 per share in respect of the Shermen Common Stock it received.
4. The shares are directly beneficially owned by Westway Holdings Corporation, a Delaware Corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ED&F ("Westway Holdings").
5. Received as part of the consideration for the mergers of Westway Terminal Company Inc. and Westway Feed Products, Inc. into wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Issuer in connection with the Acquisition. The Issuer's preferred stock ("Shermen Preferred Stock") is convertible into Shermen Common Stock as provided in the Issuer's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. On the date of the Acquisition, the closing price of Shermen Common Stock was $5.95 per share. Shermen Preferred Stock ranks senior to Shermen Common Stock with respect to payments of dividends and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up.
6. Includes 12,181,818 shares of Shermen Preferred Stock issued to Westway Holdings to be held in escrow until certain earnings or share price targets are achieved.
