Explanation of Responses:
1. The Reporting Person is Gordon J. Van Singel, Trustee of the Willard J. Van Singel Trust.
2. The Reporting Person is Gordon J. Van Singel, Co-Trustee of the Willard J. Van Singel 2008 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust.
3. The Reporting Person is John A. Van Singel, Co-Trustee of the Willard J. Van Singel 2008 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust.
4. The Reporting Person is Gordon J. Van Singel, Trustee of the Willard J. Van Singel Trust, member of Van Singel Holdings, LLC.
5. The Form 4 filed on May 29, 2007, included 241,722.7 shares held by the Willard J. Van Singel Trust. That filing failed to account for the issuer's 10% stock dividend of May 11, 2007, and failed to account for the acquisition of 1,403 shares on June 2, 2006 as reported in the Form 5/A filed June 22, 2006. Following the reported transactions on the Form 4 filed on May 29, 2007, the correct figure should have been 267,538.27 shares. This corrected figure should also have been reported in the Form 4 filed on August 1, 2007 less the disposition of 1,000 shares on July 20, 2007 as reported in that filing. The 261,569 shares reported on Form 4 filed July 10, 2008 is 4,969.7 shares less than should have been reported.
6. The current figure reflects a transfer from the Willard J. Van Singel Trust on September 25, 2008.
7. The Form 4 filed on May 29, 2007 included 64,348.8 shares held by Van Singel Holdings, LLC. The correct figure should have been 70,883.68 in light of the 10% stock dividend of May 11, 2007 and the subsequent disposition of 1,000 shares on May 24, 2007, as reported in the filing. This corrected figure should also have been reported in the Form 4 filed on August 1, 2007 and the Form 4 filed July 10, 2008. The current figure reflects the corrected figure of 70,883.68 shares less the disposition of a total of 2,000 shares reflected in the Form 4 filed July 10, 2008.
8. Each of the Reporting Persons is filing this joint Form 4 because they may be regarded as part of a group. However, each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares owned by the other Reporting Persons and disclaims membership in a group, and this filing shall not constitute an acknowledgement that the Reporting Persons are part of a group.
Remarks:
(continuation from footnote #5) In an attempt to reconcile the 10% stock dividend of May 11, 2007, that filing failed to account for the acquisition of the 1,403 shares on June 2, 2006 when determining the number of shares acquired as a result of the dividend. The correct figure should have been 266,538.27. The current figure reflects a subsequent transfer to the Willard J. Van Singel 2008 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust of 108,500 shares on September 25, 2008.
