Explanation of Responses:

1. No shares were sold - these shares were withheld by the Issuer to satisfy tax withholding requirements in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units.

2. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock.

3. The reporting person received restricted stock units, 1/16th of which vests on 6/15/16, and an additional 1/16th of which vests each quarter thereafter. Upon vesting, the reporting person will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of restricted stock units that have vested.

4. Not Applicable.

5. The option grant is subject to a four-year vesting schedule, vesting 25% on 6/15/16 and 1/48th per month thereafter.

6. The reporting person received restricted stock units subject to a four-year vesting schedule, vesting 25% on 6/15/16 and 25% each year thereafter. Upon vesting, the reporting person will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of restricted stock units that have vested.

7. The reporting person was granted 75,740 restricted stock units as a result of the company's achievement of certain performance criteria for 2015/2016 (the award was originally allocated to the reporting person as performance-based restricted stock units). 50% of the shares vested on the date of grant and the remainder will vest on 3/1/18.
