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) All shares and exercise prices reflect a 1 for 5 reverse stock split effected by the Company on March 21, 2012.
(2) On April 3, 2012 the vesting for these options was modified from 10% at grant and the balance over two years (each calendar quarter) to a new vesting schedule of 10% at grant (41,000 vested), 154,000 vesting on April 3, 2012, 195,000 vesting quarterly over eight calendar quarters commencing March 31, 2012 and 20,000 on performance. The 20,000 vesting on performance are not considered derivative securities for purposes of Section 16 and accordingly the grant total as amended has been reduced from 410,000 to 390,000 (giving effect to the reverse stock split).
(3) Options vest over eight calendar quarters with first 12.5% vested on December 31, 2011, subject to the terms of the 2012 Stock Plan and option agreement. There was no modification to this option grant.
 
Remarks:
Amended filing to reflect modification of vesting on April 3, 2012 to previously granted stock option.
