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)	Represents the full value, gross of applicable withholdings, of one quarter of the cash-settled restricted stock units originally granted March 1, 2010 pursuant to the 2010 Restricted Stock Unit Plan ("2010 Plan").
(2)	Each restricted stock unit is the economic equivalent of one of the Issuer's common shares. On March 1, 2014, 1,790 of the Reporting Person's restricted stock units were settled for cash.
(3)	Grant of restricted common shares of the Issuer pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2001 Stock Incentive Plan ("2001 Plan"). These shares will vest in four equal annual installments beginning on March 3, 2015.
(4)	Grant of restricted common shares of the Issuer, pursuant to its 2010 Performance-based Equity Incentive Plan ("Performance Share Plan"). Vesting of these shares is subject to the satisfaction of both certain service- and performance-based vesting conditions. The amount granted represents the maximum potential achievable award. If minimal performance conditions are not met, all shares will be returned to the Performance Share Plan. The grant consists of three substantially equal performance measurement periods, and the number of shares in each tranche that ultimately vest is a function of the Issuer's Total Shareholder Return during a given calendar-year period relative to the members of a predetermined peer group of companies, and the satisfaction of applicable service conditions.
(5)	Includes 7,493 shares from prior awards of Performance Shares which will not be earned as the applicable performance conditions were not met, but will remain outstanding under the terms of the Performance Share Plan until the time vesting requirement is met, at which point the shares will be cancelled.
(6)	The Reporting Person received a grant of restricted stock units on March 1, 2010 under the 2010 Plan which vest in four equal annual installments. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive, upon settlement, cash equal to the closing fair market value of one common share of the Issuer on the date of vesting.
