Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Transaction was a grant of restricted share units and therefore has no price. Units vest in equal installments on each of February 15, 2012, 2013 and 2014.
(2)	Each performance unit represents a contingent right to receive 0 to 2.25 registered shares. The conversion ratio (0, .5, 1.25 or 2.25) ultimately applied to these performance untis will be determined based on the company acheiving a total shareholder return over the performance period relative to a specified peer group. The units are scheduled to vest on December 31, 2013 based on relative shareholder return for fiscal years 2011-2013.
(3)	Each performance unit represents a contingent right to receive 0 to 2 registered shares, depending on total shareholder return over the relevant perfomance period. Units are scheduled to vest on January 3, 2012 and 2013.
