Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  This award was incorrectly reported in Table II of Form 4 on December 19, 2007 as an award of cash restricted units. This Form 4 corrects the Form 4 filed on December 19, 2007 and conforms the Form 4 to the correct information reported in the Issuer's Form 8-K that was also filed on December 19, 2007.
( 2)  Included in this amount is 58,022 shares of restricted stock, which restrictions expire in pro rata amounts on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date, which was December 17, 2007. The expiration of these restrictions will be accelerated upon (i) a change of control of the Issuer or (ii) the death, disability or termination of employment without cause of the Reporting Person.
( 3)  Each stock option was awarded at an exercise price of $28.48 per share, which was equal to the closing price on December 17, 2007 (the "Grant Date"). The options awarded will vest in pro rata amounts on the first, second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. The award was incorrectly reported as an award of stock appreciation rights on December 19, 2007. This Form 4 corrects the Form 4 filed on December 19, 2007 and conforms the Form 4 with the correct award information reported in the Issuer's Form 8-K filed on December 19, 2007. The vesting of these options will be accelerated in the event of (i) a change of control of the Company; or (ii) the death, disability or termination of employment without cause of the Reporting Person.
