Explanation of Responses:
1. Option to buy
2. The reported transactions involved an amendment of outstanding options, resulting in the deemed cancellation of the "old" option and the grant of a replacement option. The reporting person agreed to the cancellation of the old option in exchange for a new option having a lower exercise price, which was adjusted in accordance with the applicable company plan, to reflect the special dividend recently declared and paid by the company.
3. The option was originally granted on June 5, 2007 and provided for vesting in three equal installments, 1/3 each year on June 5, 2008, June 5, 2009 and June 5, 2010.
4. The option was originally granted on June 22, 2010 and provided for vesting in three equal installments, 1/3 each year on June 22, 2011, June 22, 2012 and June 22, 2013. The shares reported represent the final 1/3 tranche, which will not vest until June 22, 2013.
