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 performance-based restricted stock units (PRUs) originally reported by the reporting person in a Form 4 filed with the Commission on May 2, 2012.
(2)	On May 20, 2013, the Reporting Person was granted PRUs with a target of 24,541 shares. The PRU provides that, depending on the Issuer's achievement of the performance criterion for fiscal 2014, 0% to 133% of the target shares will be eligible (the "Eligible Shares") to be earned at the end of fiscal 2015 and 2016, based on, and subject to further adjustment as a result of, the achievement of certain other performance criteria (but in no event will the Reporting Person earn less than 50% of the Eligible Shares), provided that the Reporting Person is employed by the Issuer through April 1, 2016. The performance criterion for fiscal 2014 was partially satisfied, resulting in 12,025 shares becoming Eligible Shares.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
