Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  On March 31, 2008, pursuant to the terms of Mr. Mondry's employment agreement, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved an award to Mr. Mondry of a number of shares of restricted stock having a value equal to 130% of his base salary (i.e., pursuant to the terms previously established in Mr. Mondry's employment agreement and the Company's equity grant guidelines), to be determined based on the closing price of the Company's stock on April 30, 2008.
( 2)  The vesting provisions of this award will be the same as the vesting provisions applicable to awards under the Company's cash-in-lieu bonus plan (the "Plan") previously disclosed in the Company's Form 8-K filed on March 6, 2008. Specifically, the award generally vests 50% on March 1, 2009 and 50% on March 1, 2010, subject to Mr. Mondry's continued employment through each such date. In the event of a change of control of the Company (as defined under the Plan), this restricted stock award will vest (to the extent unvested) on the earliest of (i) the afore-referenced vesting dates, (ii) the date that is six months following the consummation of the change of control, or (iii) the date that Mr. Mondry's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Mondry for good reason (as each such term is defined under the Plan), in each case subject to Mr. Mondry's continuous employment with the Company through the vesting date.
( 3)  Includes 75,000 Restricted Stock Units and 89,899 shares of Restricted Common Stock, all of which are subject to vesting.
( 4)  Subject to certain conditions, this option grant becomes vested and exercisable at a rate of one-third on 10/20/2008, one-third on 10/20/2009, and one-third on 10/20/2010. In the event Mr. Mondry's employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company (other than termination as a result of death or disability or for Cause as described in the 2004 Stock and Incentive Plan) within one year following a change in control pursuant to a definitive agreement resulting in the change in control of the Company entered into before May 31, 2008, only 50,000 of these stock options shall automatically vest. The vesting schedule on the remaining options is as follows: 31,616 options will vest on each of 10/20/2009 and 10/20/2010, and 31,615 options will vest on 10/20/2011, in all cases, subject to Mr. Mondry being employed on such dates by the combined company.
( 5)  Grant of 300,000 stock options upon hire as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Subject to certain conditions, this option grant becomes vested and exercisable at the rate of one-third on 6/13/2008, one-third on 6/13/2009 and one-third on 6/13/2010. The option was granted as an employment inducement grant pursuant to Mr. Mondry's employment agreement.
