Explanation of Responses:

1. Shares of restricted stock granted pursuant to the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan.

2. Includes shares of common stock that may be acquired upon the conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 8 shares of common stock.

3. The option vests on the third anniversary of the grant date.

4. Each performance share represents the right to receive one share of common stock if the target level of performance is achieved. The performance objective for determining the number of shares earned is the Issuer's adjusted return on equity over a three year period. The actual number of shares received could range from 0-160% of the target number of shares based on a sliding scale of performance levels. For example, 50% of the shares are earned if the minimum objective is achieved, 100% of the shares are earned if the target objective is achieved and 160% of the shares are earned if the maximum objective is achieved. Payouts of performance shares will be interpolated if actual performance exceeds the minimum level, but falls between the specified intermediary levels.
