Explanation of Responses:
1. On February 6, 2007, the reporting person filed a Form 4 reporting the issuance to him of 3,475 restricted stock units under the Dresser-Rand Group Inc. 2005 Directors Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which issuance the Issuer determined on February 12, 2008 was null and void as an administrative error with respect to such issuance. The cancellation of these restricted stock units was approved by the entire Board of the Issuer and therefore exempt under Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act").
2. Consists of 150,000 shares of common stock, as previously reported.
3. The reporting person was issued 1,737 shares of common stock and 1,738 shares of restricted stock on February 12, 2008 under the Plan, which issuances are exempt under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. The Issuer is providing the common stock and restricted stock as additional compensation for the reporting person's board service in 2007, which the Issuer intended to provide to him in 2007. The newly issued shares of common stock and restricted stock are fully vested as of February 12, 2008; provided, however that while the restricted stock is vested as of February 12, 2008, 869 shares of restricted stock are subject to forfeiture prior to February 12, 2009 and 2010, respectively, if the reporting person is not serving as a director on each of such dates unless such failure to serve is as a result of his death or disability, or in the event there is a change in control.
4. Consists of 150,000 shares of common stock, as previously reported, and the separate issuance of 1,737 shares of common stock and 1,738 shares of restricted stock, as reported herein.
5. Grant of restricted stock pursuant to the Plan, exempt under Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Restricted stock becomes vested over three years as follows: 1299 shares on February 12, 2009, 649 shares on February 12, 2010 and 650 shares on February 12, 2011. Restricted stock will also become vested upon death, disability, and reporting persons 65th birthday or a change in control.
6. Consists of 150,000 shares of common stock, as previously reported, and the separate issuances of 2,598 shares of restricted stock, 1,737 shares of common stock and 1,738 shares of restricted stock, as reported herein.
