Explanation of Responses: |
1. On June 14, 2011, Tinicum Capital Partners II, L.P. ("TCP") and Tinicum Capital Partners II Parallel Fund, L.P. ("TCPP") purchased an aggregate of 791,706 shares of Common Stock in a privately negotiated transaction. TCP purchased 787,579 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $8.62 per share, including commissions, and TCPP purchased 4,127 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $8.62 per share, including commissions. Subsequent to the June 14, 2011 purchase, TCP owned 3,286,153 shares of Common Stock and TCPP owned 17,220 shares of Common Stock. |
2. Because TCP and TCPP may be deemed to be under common control, each may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the other, although TCP and TCPP disclaim such beneficial ownership. If TCP and TCPP are deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock held by the other, TCP and TCPP would own 3,303,373 shares of Common Stock in aggregate. Pursuant to Rule 16a-1(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), TCP states that this filing shall not be deemed an admission that TCP is, for purposes of Section 16 of the Act or otherwise, the beneficial owner of the shares of Common Stock owned owned by TCPP. Tinicum Lantern II L.L.C. ("Lantern"), a Delaware limited liability company, is the general partner of each of TCP and TCPP. Terence M. O'Toole and Eric M. Ruttenberg are each co-managing members of Lantern and, as a result of such position, may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Stock held by TCP and TCPP. |
