Explanation of Responses:
1. On June 9, 2005, the reporting person was granted up to 5,952 Restricted Common Stock Units ("RSUs") subject to the satisfaction of certain performance conditions. On April 21, 2006, the performance conditions as of March 31, 2006 were determined to have been satisfied such that 4,621 RSUs became vested and reportable on such date. The remaining RSUs have been forfeited. The Restricted Common Stock Unit grant reported above represents these vested RSUs which are issuable in shares of common stock as follows: one-third of the common stock is issuable immediately; one-third becomes issuable on March 31, 2007; and the remaining one-third becomes issuable on March 31, 2008. The number of shares of common stock underlying such RSUs has been adjusted to reflect a 3-for-1 stock split in the form of a 200% dividend paid by the Company on February 24, 2006.
2. On June 9, 2005, the reporting person was granted an option to purchase 21,000 shares of Common Stock. On April 21, 2006, the performance conditions as of March 31, 2006 were determined to have been satisfied such that Stock Options vested as to 16,305 shares exercisable as follows: one-third exercisable immediately, one-third exercisable on March 31, 2007; and one-third exercisable on March 31, 2008. The remaining options to purchase shares have been forfeited. The number of shares of common stock underlying such stock options and the exercise price have been adjusted to reflect a 3-for-1 stock split in the form of a 200% dividend paid by the Company on February 24, 2006.
