Explanation of Responses:

1. Mr. Ashken entered into a voting agreement, dated as of August 22, 2002, with Martin E. Franklin, pursuant to which Mr. Franklin has the power to vote, or direct the vote, over all of these shares.

2. On December 1, 2003, Mr. Ashken entered into a forward purchase contract with a securities broker pursuant to which Mr. Ashken has agreed to sell 82,500 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment) to the securities broker upon the expiration of the two-year term of the agreement and the securities broker has currently paid to Mr. Ashken $2,055,715.60 for an imputed per share price of $24.9178 per share. Mr. Ashken will continue to retain beneficial ownership with respect to these shares for the term of the contract and will be able to participate in the future appreciation of the stock. This future appreciation will be accomplished through a collar on the future market price of the shares.

3. Any appreciation of the market price of the Common Stock above a floor price of $27.4697 per share and less than or equal to a cap price of $32.9636 per share will result in a decrease in the number of shares that must be delivered by Mr. Ashken to the securities broker and a consequent increase in the imputed price per share that he has received. Mr. Ashken entered into a voting agreement, dated as of August 22, 2002, with Mr. Franklin, pursuant to which Mr. Franklin has the power to vote, or direct the vote, over all of these shares
