Explanation of Responses:

1. The Restricted Stock Units (RSU), the conversion of which is reported herein, were granted to the Reporting Person by the issuer as part of equity incentive grants made by the issuer on 2/27/2006. On that date, the fair market value (FMV) of the issuers stock was $27.81. The RSU vest and are received by the Reporting Person in three equal portions on 3/29/2007, 2/27/2008 and 2/27/2009 unless the Reporting Person has previously elected a longer deferral period. This report reflects the vesting of the 2nd one-third of these RSU, acquisition of those underlying shares in whole units by the Reporting Person and withholding of sufficient shares to pay applicable income taxes. The FMV of the shares, based on the closing price of the issuers stock on 2/26/2008 (last business day prior to the shares vesting) is $46.91.

2. This Restricted Stock Units (RSU) grant is issued pursuant to a provision of the issuers Management Stock Purchase Plan (MSPP) whereby certain executives may make an advance election to receive RSU in lieu of a specified % or dollar amount of that executive annual incentive cash bonus. RSU are issued in whole units at a 33% discount ($32.60) from fair market value of the issuers common stock on the date the underlying bonus is determined ($48.66) and generally vest 3 years from the date of the award, at which time the RSU convert into shares of common stock on a 1-for-1 basis unless the executive previously elected a longer deferral period.
