Explanation of Responses:

The exercise and sale reported in this Form 4 was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the reporting person on August 19, 2011.

The total amount of securities reported as indirectly owned by the reporting person represents a reduction of .692 shares allocated to the reporting person's account in the Company's 401(k) Plan as of August 31, 2011. To manage liquidity needs of the 401(k) Plan, the Plan trustee from time-to-time maintains a lower overall share balance (versus cash) in the 401(k) Plan, which in this instance resulted in a reduction in the number of shares allocated to the reporting person's account when compared to the reporting person's Form 4 filed on August 31, 2011. The information is based on a report dated September 1, 2011, provided by the Plan trustee.
