Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Issued under the Company's 2004 Stock Incentive Plan and qualified under Rule 16b-3(d).
( 2)  The reported transactions involved an amendment of the exercise period of an outstanding option award, resulting in the deemed cancellation, for purposes of Section 16, of the "existing" option and the grant of a "replacement" option. The existing option had an exercise period of 6 years from the initial date of grant provided that, if the reporting person left the company's board of directors, the option was exercisable for one year from such date. The existing option was amended to provide that if the reporting person leaves the company's board of directors, the option will be exercisable for two years from the date such person leaves the board. The existing option was also amended to provide that the option is immediately exercisable as of the date of amendment.
