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) Each share of phantom stock is the economic equivalent of one share of GDP common stock.
(2) The phantom stock vests in increments of one-third beginning December 14, 2018 for each of the next three years. Thus the reporting person will receive 10,066 shares of common stock of the issuer (or cash equal to the value of the common stock on the settlement dates, in the sole discretion of the issuer) on each of December 14, 2018, and 2019 and 10,067 shares of common stock of the issuer (or cash equal to the value of the common stock on the settlement dates, in the sole discretion of the issuer) on December 14, 2020, as long as the reporting person remains affiliated with the company.
(3) Each performance share unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock. The number of performance share units that will vest on December 14, 2020 can range from 0% to 200% of the units granted based upon the issuer's total shareholder return measured against an industry peer group over a three year period.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
