Explanation of Responses:

1. These shares were omitted from the Reporting Persons' original Form 3.

2. The shares are held directly by Crescent/MACH I Partners, L.P. ("CMI").

3. The shares are held directly by TCW LINC III CBO Ltd. ("LINC").

4. The shares are held directly by Plaza II Emerging Market CBO Limited ("Plaza", and collectively with CMI and LINC, the "Funds").

5. The Funds have delegated all disposition and voting discretion to TCW Asset Management Company, a California corporation ("TAMCO"), and thus disclaim any beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein. TAMCO is the Investment Advisor to each Fund, and disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein as indirectly owned, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest. TAMCO is wholly owned by The TCW Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("TCWG", and together with TAMCO, the "Reporting Persons") which disclaims beneficial ownership of securities reported as indirectly owned except to the extent of its pecuniary interest in TAMCO by virtue of TCWG's ownership thereof.

6. TCWG, together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, collectively constitute The TCW Group, Inc. business unit (the "TCW Business Unit"). The TCW Business Unit is primarily engaged in the provision of investment management services. The ultimate parent company of TCWG is Societe Generale, S.A., a company incorporated under the laws of France ("SG"). The principal business of SG is acting as a holding company for a global financial services group, which includes certain distinct specialized business units that are independently operated, including the TCW Business Unit. SG, for purposes of the federal securities laws, may be deemed ultimately to control TCWG and the TCW Business Unit. SG, its executive officers and directors, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (including all of its business units except the TCW Business Unit), may be deemed to beneficially own securities of the Issuer and such securities are not reported in this statement.

7. In accordance with Exchange Act Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998) and due to the separate management and independent operation of its business units, SG disclaims beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by the TCW Business Unit. Each member of the TCW Business Unit disclaims beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by SG and any of SG's other business units.
