Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Restricted share units convert into Common Stock on a one-to-one basis.
( 2)  The date reflected in Table II as the Date Exercisable is the scheduled vesting date of the Restricted Share Units. Once vested, the Restricted Share Units are subject to an additional two-year holding period. The Transaction Date reported In Tables I and II is the date the holding period expired and the Restricted Share Units were settled and shares of Common Stock delivered.
( 3)  Performance Share Units granted as a performance award, vesting based upon degree of acheivement of performance goal. At the end of the performance period, 50% of award is paid in common shares free of restrictions, and 50% is paid in cash. If the final amount is less than 100% of the share units, the balance is forfeited to the company.
( 4)  Represent phantom shares awarded under the Company's Supplemental Defined Contribution Plan for Executive Employees.
( 5)  The date reflected above as the Date Exercisable is the scheduled vesting date of the Restricted Share Units. Once vested, settlement of the Restricted Share Units and delivery of common shares is subject to an additional two-year holding period.
