Explanation of Responses:
(1)  Represents the vesting of dividend equivalent rights accrued on 310 restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted on 4/27/2015, which AZZ has elected to pay in shares of AZZ common stock. These dividend equivalent rights vest when, and if, the underlying RSUs vest.
(2)  Represents the vesting of dividend equivalent rights accrued on 290 RSUs granted on 4/27/2016, which AZZ has elected to pay in shares of AZZ common stock. These dividend equivalent rights vest when, and if, the underlying RSUs vest.
(3)  The reporting person disposed of 159 shares of common stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations.
(4)  Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of AZZ common stock.
(5)  The RSUs granted on 4/27/2015, vest ratably over a 3-year period beginning on 4/27/2016.
(6)  Once vested, the shares of common stock are not subject to expiration.
(7)  The RSUs granted on 4/27/2016, vest ratably over a 3-year period beginning on 4/27/2017.
(8)  The RSUs are granted under AZZ's 2014 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan") and vest over a 3-year period with 1/3rd of the RSUs vesting on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date beginning on 4/27/2018.
(9)  Each Performance Share Unit ("PSU") represents a contingent right to receive shares of AZZ common stock with the actual number varying based on achieved results.
(10)  The PSUs are issued under AZZ's 2014 Plan. The PSUs will vest and become payable, if at all, on the third anniversary from the date of grant, ranging from 0% to 200% based on AZZ achieving a target average adjusted return on assets from March 1, 2017 to February 28, 2020. Actual payout will be subject to a multiplier up to a maximum of 250% of the target award if AZZ's total shareholder return for the 3-year period ranks within the top quartile relative to each company in a custom industry peer group for the same period.
