Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Award of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) granted under The Allstate Corporation Amended and Restated 2001 Equity Incentive Plan. Each RSU represents the right to receive, without the payment of any consideration, one share of Allstate common stock on the day following the last day of the period of restriction (the conversion date). The period of restriction ends on February 26, 2013; therefore the RSUs convert on February 27, 2013.
( 2)  Option exercisable in four increments, each for one-fourth of the total number of said shares, such installments to vest on February 27, 2010, February 27, 2011, February 27, 2012 and February 27, 2013, respectively.
