Explanation of Responses:
( 1 )Delivery of shares of the company's common stock was made to the reporting person without the payment of any consideration in connection with the vesting of the underlying restricted stock units and performance stock units that were awarded as compensation.
( 2 )This transaction was executed in multiple trades at prices ranging from $30.70 to $30.925. The price reported represents the weighted average sale price of these trades. The reporting person hereby undertakes to provide upon request to the SEC staff, the company, or a securityholder of the company, full information regarding the shares sold at each separate price.
( 3 )The restricted stock units were awarded as compensation in 2014 and 2015 and converted to common stock on a 1 to 1 basis upon the vesting date.
( 4 )The performance stock units were awarded as compensation in 2015 and converted to common stock based on the achievement of certain performance factors.
( 5 )Each stock unit represents a conditional right to receive one share of the company's common stock.
( 6 )The number of stock units granted was determined by reference to the closing price of a share of the company's common stock on March 7, 2016, the date of the grant.
( 7 )1/3 of the restricted stock units will vest on March 7, 2017, 1/3 on March 7, 2018 and 1/3 on March 7, 2019.
( 8 )The number of shares of common stock that will be delivered for each performance stock unit depends on the achievement of certain performance factors. Depending on actual performance, the number of shares of common stock delivered upon the vesting date (March 7, 2019) can range from 0% to 150% of the number presented above.
