Explanation of Responses:
1. The reporting person agreed to a cancellation of an option previously granted to him on May 22, 2003 under the 2000 Employee Stock Incentive Plan (the "2000 Plan") in exchange for the grant of a new option for the same amount having a lower exercise price granted pursuant to the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2004 Plan"). After adoption of the 2004 Plan, the Company indicated that it would not make any additional grants pursuant to the 2000 Plan.
2. These option originally vested on a monthly basis over a two year period beginning as of March 25, 2003 and were vested in full as of March 25, 2005.
3. These options were granted pursuant to the 2000 Plan.
4. The new grant of options is immediately vested and exercisable in full.
5. These options were granted pursuant to the 2004 Plan.
6. Pursuant to the terms of the 2004 Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors elected to amend the outstanding option to provide for a lower exercise price. The amendment of the outstanding option results in the deemed cancellation of the option and the grant of a replacement option. The option was originally granted on June 13, 2005 and was exercisable in full as of the date of grant.
7. Except for the amendment to the exercise price, the terms of the original grant remain the same for what is deemed to be the replacement grant.
