Explanation of Responses:
1. The shares were cancelled in connection with the merger of Vector Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of TTM Technologies, Inc. ("TTM"), into the Issuer (the "Merger"). At the effective time of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of the Issuer's common stock was cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive a combination of (a) $11.33 in cash, and (b) 0.706 of a share of common stock of TTM (together, the "Merger Consideration").
2. Performance shares were granted on February 7, 2012 (7,239 performance shares), February 5, 2013 (21,454 performance shares), February 4, 2014 (12,095 performance shares), and February 3, 2015 (3,620 performance shares). Each performance share represented a contingent right to receive a share of the Issuer's common stock upon satisfaction of certain performance criteria or based strictly upon a function of the market price of the Issuer's common stock. The vested portions of the performance shares (40,339 shares) were cancelled in connection with the Merger in exchange for 28,479 shares of common stock of TTM and a cash payment of $457,044.09, minus 9,532 shares and $156,516.28 withheld for tax purposes.
3. Options were granted on May 11, 2010 (25,000 shares at $21.88 per share), February 8, 2011 (25,000 shares at $20.38 per share) and February 7, 2012 (13,920 shares at $18.42 per share). The options have a term of seven years from their date of grant. All options are fully vested. Such options were cancelled in the Merger, as the exercise price for such options exceeded the Merger Consideration.
