Explanation of Responses:

1. The shares reported in Item 4 were acquired as a result of the dissolution and distribution of assets of Evergreen Atlantic, LLC ("EALLC"). The Susan L. Ciciora Trust ("Susan Trust") and Stewart West Indies Trust (the "West Indies Trust" and, together with the Susan Trust, the "Trusts") had 45.38% and 54.62% sharing percentages, respectively, in EALLC. Prior to distributing the Issuer's shares, EALLC held 1,072,902 shares, of which 486,883 shares were distributed to the Susan Trust and 586,019 shares were distributed to the West Indies Trust.

2. The trustee of each Trust is Alaska Trust Company ("Alaska Trust"), which may be deemed to control each Trust. As a result of his advisory role with the Trusts, Stewart R. Horejsi may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of the shares directly beneficially owned by the Trusts. However, Mr. Horejsi disclaims such beneficial ownership of the shares directly beneficially held by each Trust.

3. The Trusts and other trusts, persons and entities affiliated with the Reporting Persons, including Lola Brown Trust No. 1B, Ernest Horejsi Trust No. 1B, Mildred B. Horejsi Trust, Stewart R. Horejsi Trust No. 2, Susan L. Ciciora and Ellen O. Horejsi (formerly Ellen O. Cooper) own an aggregate of 45,444,843 shares or approximately 42.83% of the Issuer.
