Explanation of Responses:
1. On January 30, 2007, the reporting person was granted an option to purchase 16,650 shares of common stock. The option vests in equal increments of 20% at the end of fiscal years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 if certain annual EBITDA performance targets are achieved, subject to "catch up" vesting, such that, options that were eligible to vest but failed to vest at the end of any year noted above will vest if at the end of any subsequent year or at the end of fiscal year 2012, the cumulative total EBITDA earned in all prior years exceeds the cumulative EBITDA target at the end of such fiscal year. The EBITDA performance criteria for 2008 was met, resulting in vesting of the option as to 3,330 shares.
