Explanation of Responses:
1. Reflects the issuance of shares of CUB common stock upon vesting of the first installment of restricted stock units ("RSUs") granted on March 21, 2013. Each RSU granted at that time represented a contingent right to receive one share of CUB common stock.
2. Represents shares issued in respect of dividends that accrued on the shares issuable upon vesting of the RSUs on October 1, 2013, as reported in line 1 of this Form 4. The number of shares of CUB common stock issuable to the Reporting Person was determined on October 1, 2013, based on the aggregate cash dividends declared on CUBs common stock while such RSUs were outstanding, divided by $53.78, representing the closing price per share of CUB common stock on October 1, 2013. Fractional shares that would have been issued based on such calculation have been rounded down.
3. This is the first of two (2) vesting installment of RSUs granted to the Reporting on March 21, 2013. The remaining 1,714 shares from such grant shall vest on October 1, 2014, subject to the Reporting Person's continuous service thrugh each application vesting date.
4. The reported securities are owned by the named trusts of which the Reporting Person is co-trustee of both trusts. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of these securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
5. The reported securities are held in 3 trusts for the Reporting Person's children, for which the Reporting Person is Trustee.
6. The Walter C. Zable Trust U/A/D 2/7/06, for which the Reporting Person is Trustee.
