Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) convert into Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. These RSUs issued under the issuer's Management Stock Purchase Plan (MSPP) pursuant to which certain executives may make an advance election to receive RSUs in lieu of a specified percentage or dollar amount of such executive's annual incentive cash bonus under the bonus plan applicable to the executive. The RSUs are issued in whole units on the basis of a 33% discount from the fair market value of the issuer's common stock on the date that the underlying bonus is determined and generally vest 3 years from the date of grant at which time they convert into shares of common stock unless the executive previously has selected a longer deferral period.
(2) In connection with the issuer's grant of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) on February 26, 2007, certain executives would be entitled to receipt in February 2009 of an additional award of RSUs equal to 25% of the award's initial value contingent upon the Company achieving a specified return on invested capital for the 2008 fiscal year. The Company achieved this goal, and accordingly, the grant reported herein reflects the distribution of such RSUs. These RSUs vest in equal installments of one-fourth per year over a four-year period commencing with March 2, 2010 and convert into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis unless the executive previously has selected a longer deferral period.
(3) The Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) granted herein are in connection with the Company's grant of long-term incentive awards for the 2009 Fiscal Year. These RSUs, which represent 75% of the long-term incentive awarded to the executive, vest in four equal installments on April 2, 2010, March 2, 2011, March 2, 2012 and March 2, 2013 and convert into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis unless the executive previously has selected a longer deferral period.
(4) The Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) granted herein are in connection with the Company's grant of long-term incentive awards for the 2009 Fiscal Year. These RSUs, which represent 25% of the long-term incentive awarded to the executive, vest in four equal installments on April 2, 2010, March 2, 2011, March 2, 2012 and March 2, 2013 and convert into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis unless the executive previously has selected a longer deferral period. Unlike the RSUs discussed in Footnote 3, however, these RSUs are subject to risk of forfeiture based on the Company's achievement of certain goals for return on invested capital during the 2009 fiscal year.
