Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  The Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), the conversion of which is reported herein, were issued to the Reporting Person pursuant to issuer's Management Stock Purchase Plan (MSPP) on 2/27/2006. On that date the fair market value (FMV) of a share of issuer's common stock was $27.81. Under MSPP, executive may take an advance election to receive RSUs in lieu of a specified % or dollar amount of executive's annual bonus. RSUs are issued in whole units on the basis of a 33% discount from FMV of the issuer's common stock on the date the underlying bonus is determined ($18.63 in this case) and generally vest 3 years from date of grant, at which time they convert into shares of common stock unless the executive has previously selected a longer deferral period. Acquisition price reflects the 33% discount to FMV of issuer's stock on grant date. The Reporting Person elected to receive these RSUs in lieu of the entire executive's bonus for 2006.
