Explanation of Responses:
( 1)  Option features market-based vesting so that option only becomes exercisable upon sustained improvement in the trading price of the Issuer's common stock in the following increments: 20% at $3.1548 per share; an additional 30% at $4.6466 per share; an additional 40% at $6.5114 per share; and the remaining 10% at $7.2246 (based on the average daily closing price of the Issuer's common stock on the NYSE for any 20 consecutive trading days preceding a vesting date), with pro rata vesting based on sustained improvement in the trading price of the Issuer's common stock between the exercise price and $3.1548 and between the other stock price vesting thresholds set forth above.
