Explanation of Responses:
1. The reporting person was granted Restricted Stock Units for no consideration.
2. The fair market value was determined using the average of the high and low price of the Common Stock on March 12, 2012, the date of vesting.
3. Vesting of the RSUs requires the satisfaction of two conditions: a time-based vesting condition and a stock price vesting condition. No vesting will occur unless both vesting conditions are satisfied. The time-based vesting condition has the following vesting schedule: 25% vest immediately upon grant and 6-1/4% vest over each of the next twelve quarters on the second Monday of each September, December, March and June, through June 11, 2012, provided the recipient remains employed on each vesting date. The stock price vesting condition will be satisfied only when the average closing price of the Common Stock over a period of 20 consecutive trading days is at or above $45 during the period commencing on the grant date and ending on June 30, 2016. The time-based vesting condition is subject to full or partial acceleration upon death, disability or termination of employment without cause, and upon a change of control of Loral. The RSUs expire on June 30, 2016.
