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 amount reported reflects the addition of 6.0728 non-derivative dividend shares @ $24.46 per share acquired and reinvested under the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan on 06/10/08.
(2)	These shares were held indirectly under the Issuer's 401(k) Plan as of 07/31/08, and include .8543 vested dividends @ $24.46 per unit from 06/10/08. JP Morgan Retirement Plan Services accounts for holdings in the stock fund in units, comprised of stock and cash reserves. The shares reported represent an approximate value based upon the fund balance and market value of Issuer's common stock.
(3)	No reportable change since the last filing, this is a reiteration of holdings only.
(4)	1 for 1
(5)	Information originally included at time grant was reported.
(6)	Per Reporting Person's election with regard to issuance of phantom stock units ("PSU") under the Issuer's Executive Deferral Plan, an in-service distribution was elected to be made while the Reporting Person is employed. Shares of PSU under the Issuer's Executive Deferral Plan are immediately exercisable, but issued following termination of Reporting Person's employment with Issuer. The .1980 amount reported represents PSU dividends @ $24.46 from 06/10/08. There was a a minor adjustment due to rounding to the total holdings.
