Explanation of Responses:
1. On January 3, 2006, 750,000 restricted units (the "Restricted Units") held by the Reporting Person were converted into 750,000 shares of the Issuer's Common Stock.
2. The sale reported on this Form 4 was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the Reporting Person on June 3, 2005.
3. Each Restricted Unit represents the rights to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock. The 1,250,000 shares of the Issuer's common stock underlying the Restricted Units (the "Unit Shares") were to be delivered to the Reporting Person on January 3, 2006. The Reporting Person elected to defer delivery of 500,000 Unit Shares until March 4, 2008. On January 3, 2006, 750,000 Unit Shares were issued to the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person has the right to defer the delivery of the Unit Shares on as many occasions as he determines from time to time through, but not beyond, June 30, 2025. The Unit Shares not yet issued may be delivered to the Reporting Person prior to March 4, 2008 in the event of a change of control of the Issuer or a termination of the Reporting Person's employment with the Issuer other than (a) for cause or (b) due to his voluntary departure (other than for good reason or due to disability).
