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 award consisted of three substantially equal tranches and the amount initially awarded represented the maximum potential achievable number of shares. The number of shares in each tranche that ultimately vests at the expiration of the applicable service period is a function of the Issuer's total shareholder return relative to a predetermined peer group of companies during a given calendar year performance period, and is subject to the reporting person's continued employment through the expiration of the applicable service period. Shares that are no longer eligible to vest following the Compensation Committee's determination of total shareholder return for a performance period are immediately forfeited.
(2) Represents the forfeiture, following the Compensation Committee's determination of total shareholder return for 2018, of a portion of the third tranche of performance-based restricted shares granted to the reporting person on January 12, 2016 pursuant to the Issuer's 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated.
(3) Represents the forfeiture, following the Compensation Committee's determination of total shareholder return for 2018, of a portion of the third tranche of performance-based restricted shares granted to the reporting person on May 16, 2016 pursuant to the Issuer's 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2016 LTI Plan").
(4) Represents the forfeiture, following the Compensation Committee's determination of total shareholder return for 2018, of a portion of the second tranche of performance-based restricted shares granted to the reporting person on March 1, 2017 pursuant to the 2016 LTI Plan.
(5) Represents the forfeiture, following the Compensation Committee's determination of total shareholder return for 2018, of a portion of the first tranche of performance-based restricted shares granted to the reporting person on March 1, 2018 pursuant to the 2016 LTI Plan.
