Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Each unit converted upon vesting into one share of common stock.
( 2)  These shares were retained by the Company in order to meet the tax withholding obligations of the award-holder in connection with the vesting of an installment of the restricted stock award.
( 3)  These restricted stock units were granted to the reporting person under the Issuer's 2006 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. These shares represent the shares which vested.
( 4)  If the reporting person's employment with the Issuer or its subsidiaries is voluntarily or involuntarily terminated for any reason (including death) prior to vesting of the restricted stock units granted herein, all unvested restricted stock units shall immediately and automatically be forfeited and returned to the Company. The units automatically vest as long as employment continues, and there is no expiration date.
( 5)  The vesting and conversion into Common Stock of these Restricted Stock Units was mistakenly listed as "acquired" rather than "disposed of".
