Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Acquisition of shares based on a cashless net exercise of stock options, resulting in the issuance to Mr. Weinberger of a number of shares of common stock that was less than the total number of shares issued pursuant to the option. The remaining shares underlying the options were withheld as payment for the exercise price, based upon the closing price per share reported by Nasdaq on March 5, 2013 which was $7.74.
( 2)  The number of securities beneficially owned includes the following unvested restricted stock awards (a) 50,000 unvested shares acquired pursuant to an award of restricted stock in May 2010 (these awards were subject to performance criteria and settled as described in Footnote 3), (b) 33,000 unvested shares acquired pursuant to an award of restricted stock in May 2011 (these awards are subject to performance criteria and vest on January 1, 2014), and (c) 31,500 unvested shares acquired pursuant to an award of restricted stock in May 2012 (these awards are subject to performance criteria and vest at the end on January 1, 2015).
( 3)  On March 7, 2013, 17,908 shares that were acquired by the reporting person pursuant to the award of 50,000 restricted stock shares on May 20, 2010, which were subject to performance criteria set forth by the Company's Board of Directors, vested and were paid to the reporting person. 6,877 of these 17,908 shares were withheld to pay the resulting tax liability.
( 4)  The number of securities beneficially owned has been reduced to reflect the settlement of the May 20, 2010 grant noted in Footnote 3 and includes the following unvested restricted stock awards (a) 33,000 unvested shares acquired pursuant to an award of restricted stock in May 2011 (these awards are subject to performance criteria and vest on January 1, 2014), and (b) 31,500 unvested shares acquired pursuant to an award of restricted stock in May 2012 (these awards are subject to performance criteria and vest at the end on January 1, 2015).
( 5)  Acquisition of shares based on a cashless net exercise of stock options, resulting in the issuance to Mr. Weinberger of a number of shares of common stock that was less than the total number of shares issued pursuant to the option. The remaining shares underlying the option were withheld as payment for the exercise price and to pay the resulting tax liability, based upon the closing price per share reported by Nasdaq on March 7, 2013 which was $7.72.
