Explanation of Responses:

( 1 )The Reporting Person may be deemed to be a member of a Section 13(d) group that collectively beneficially owns more than 10% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities of the Issuer owned by the other members of the Section 13(d) group and this report shall not be deemed an admission that it is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose. ( 2 )The Reporting Person entered into a cash-settled total return swap agreement with an unaffiliated third party financial institution as the counterparty (the "Swap") that established economic exposure to 54,279 notional shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (the "Subject Shares"). The Swap provides the Reporting Person with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but does not provide the Reporting Person with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the Subject Shares. ( 3 )The termination date of the Swap will be automatically extended by thirty-six months unless the counterparty elects not to so extend the termination date at least one year prior thereto.

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