Explanation of Responses:
1. Disposed of pursuant to the merger (the "Merger") contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of February 14, 2007 by and among TALX Corporation ("TALX"), Equifax Inc. ("Equifax") and Chipper Corporation. (the "Merger Agreement"). At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of TALX common stock, par value $.01 per share ("TALX common stock"), was converted into the right to receive either 0.861 shares of Equifax common stock, par value $1.25 ("Equifax common stock"), or $35.50 in cash, or a combination of both, at the election of the reporting person, subject to proration and allocation procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement. As such proration and allocation calculations have not yet been completed as of the date of this filing, it is not possible to determine the exact amount of merger consideration to be received by the reporting person for each share of TALX common stock disposed of in the merger.
2. Disposed of pursuant to the Merger described in footnote 1 above. At the effective time of the Merger, each TALX stock option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger was converted automatically into a fully vested option to purchase Equifax common stock. The number of shares of Equifax common stock subject to the Equifax stock option is equal to the product of the number of shares of TALX common stock subject to the TALX stock option and the exchange ratio determined pursuant to the Merger Agreement of 0.861, rounded down to the nearest whole share. The exercise per share of Equifax common stock subject to the new Equifax stock option is equal to the exercise price per share of TALX common stock under the TALX stock option divided by the exchange ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.
