Explanation of Responses:
1. Shares acquired are shares of restricted stock granted pursuant to the Company's 2010 Incentive Award Plan. Restrictions lapse on the third anniversary of the date of grant.
2. Option vests and becomes exercisable as to 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder in 36 equal monthly installments.
3. Option vests and becomes exercisable as to 20% on the first, second, third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to a minimum average share price being achieved on each vesting date, which shall be $5.07, $6.76, $8.45, $10.14 and $11.83, respectively. If the specified minimum average share price for the applicable anniversary date is not achieved, the 20% of the number of shares thereunder shall not vest and become exercisable but may vest on a subsequent anniversary date if the minimum average share price related to the earlier anniversary date is achieved or exceeded on a subsequent anniversary date.
