Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )In connection with a 2016 year-end review of share ownership of our executive officers and directors, the Company noted that there were discrepancies related to Mr. Ansell's stock reporting records and a report that the Company provided to him and that three separate transactions involving 10,054 shares in aggregate had not been reported. ( 2 )In connection with a 2016 year-end review of share ownership of our executive officers and directors, the Company determined that sales of shares held in trust had erroneously been reported as sales of shares directly held. This adjustment addresses that error. ( 3 )In connection with our annual review of share ownership of our executive officers and directors, a 90 share discrepancy between Mr. Ansell's records and a report that the Company provided to him regarding his holdings as reported to the SEC in January 2017 could not be resolved from available records. This adjustment is made to reflect Mr. Ansell's current balance. ( 4 )Aggregate number of shares held in ESPP as of the last day of the calendar month that ended at least 10 days prior to the date of this report, including shares acquired or disposed of on various dates since balance was last reported. Because interest in Plan is denominated in cash, fluctuation in share price since the balance was last reported may have resulted in either an increase or decrease in associated number of shares.

Reminder: Report on a separate line for each class of securities beneficially owned directly or indirectly.
