Explanation of Responses:

Remarks:
(1) This Form 3 reports the Common Shares of Beneficial Interest of Western Asset/Claymore Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (WIW) owned by the reporting persons. At the time this Form 3 was filed, the CIK for Western Asset/Claymore Inflation-Linked Securities & Income Fund (WIA) was mistakenly inserted, which caused this Form 3 to be reported on EDGAR under WIA's CIK instead of WIW's CIK. The reporting persons have filed a Form 3 reporting their holdings of WIW under WIW's CIK, SEC File No. 811-21477. This Form 3 should be disregarded for purposes of the reporting persons' holdings of WIA.
