Explanation of Responses:

1. Based on a plan report dated February 4, 2013, the most recent plan report available.

2. Restricted stock units convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis at the time of vesting.

3. The restricted stock units vest in four equal annual installments beginning on the date listed in the Date Exercisable column of Box 6.

4. Vesting of these Restricted Stock Units was contingent upon the company meeting a pre-established performance target. The performance target was met, and 50% of the units vested on the date listed in the Date Exercisable column of Box 6, with remaining vesting to occur in 25% increments on the fourth and fifth anniversary of the grant date. These Restricted Stock Units were granted in 2010 as a special retention award for the reporting person.
