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)	The Stock Appreciation Right ("SAR") entitles the reporting person, upon exercise, to the number of common shares with a fair market value on the exercise date equal to: (i) the excess a common share's fair market value on the date of exercise over its fair market value on the date of grant, times (ii) the number of SAR shares exercised; provided, however, that the number of common shares is limited to the number of SARs multiplied by five times the fair market value of the issuer's common shares on the grant date, divided by the fair market value of the issuer's common shares on the day before the applicable vesting date. This limitation caps the fair market value of the award at five times the fair market value of the award on the grant date.
(2)	The SAR vests 33.33% on February 21, 2013, 33.33% on February 21, 2014 and 33.34% on February 21, 2015.
