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) These RSUs were granted in a transaction exempt under Rule 16b. Upon vesting, RSUs are converted into an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock that are distributed to the grantee.
(2) This amount reflects the correct number of RSUs that were originally authorized for issuance to the reporting person. The amount reflected in Box 5 of the Form 4 filed on February 2, 2010 for the reporting person did not include all RSUs to be issued to the reporting person.
(3) The reporting person's original Form 4 erroneously indicated that the number of RSUs was 10,957. This amended Form 4 is being filed to correct the number of RSUs.
(4) Non-Qualified Options ("NQOs") granted in a transaction exempt under Rule 16b.
(5) The reporting person's original Form 4 erroneously indicated that the number of NQOs was 45,939. This amended Form 4 is being filed to correct the number of NQOs.
(6) The NQOs become vested with respect to one-third of the shares of Common Stock subject thereto on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. Vesting of the NQOs is also subject to certain acceleration and termination provisions.

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

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
