Explanation of Responses:
1. On March 2, 2006, Forest completed a spin-off transaction involving a wholly-owned subsidiary, which was subsequently merged with a subsidiary of Mariner Energy, Inc. The number and the exercise price of all outstanding stock options granted under Forest's equity incentive plans were adjusted to reflect the spin-off.
2. This option becomes exercisable in four equal installments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant.
3. This option becomes exercisable in installments: 20 percent of this option vests immediately and the remaining 80 percent of this option vests in 20 percent increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of grant.
