Explanation of Responses:

1. The issuer has previously granted the reporting person rights to receive shares of the issuer's common stock, called performance share units, pursuant to a long-term incentive plan. In accordance with these prior grants, the reporting person will receive one share of the issuer's common stock for each vested performance share unit. The shares reported on this line reflect several different prior grants to the reporting person during 2004-2007. The 2007 grant of 4,038 performance share units vests on March 9, 2010, subject to certain other conditions. The remaining 10,426 performance share units granted during 2004-2006 vest as follows: 50% on the third anniversary of the date of grant with an additional three-year holding period; and 50% on the sixth anniversary of the date of grant, in each case, subject to certain other conditions. Effective January 1, 2008, the additional three-year holding period will be lifted.

2. Reflects the number of shares of the issuer's common stock held in the reporting person's 401(k) account as of August 31, 2007.
