Explanation of Responses:

("Purchaser"), and the Issuer, on July 11, 2017, Purchaser merged with and into the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Issuer (each, a "Share") was disposed of pursuant to a tender offer commenced by the Purchaser on May 26, 2017 to acquire any and all of the Company's Shares for $18.50 per Share, net to the Reporting Person in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable withholding taxes.
(2)  Each market share unit ("MSU") represents the right to receive one share of common stock based on certain vesting conditions.
(3)  Pursuant to the letter agreement, dated May 7, 2017, between the Issuer and the Reporting Person (the "Letter Agreement"), each of these MSUs was cancelled and converted into a right to receive an amount in cash equal to $18.50 for each Share underlying each such MSU (assuming that for this purpose that performance in respect of all such outstanding MSUs was achieved at a level that resulted in a payout of 100% of the target award) (the aggregate amount, the "MSU Payment"). The MSU Payment will generally be payable after March 2, 2018, the date representing the end of the applicable performance period, after which the MSUs would have otherwise vested in accordance with the terms of the award; provided, however that the MSU Payment will be payable in full no later than 30 days (cont'd in FN 4)

(5)  Each restricted stock unit represented a contingent right to receive one Share.
(6)  Pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement, each of these restricted stock units was cancelled and converted into a right to receive an amount in cash equal to $18.50 for each Share underlying each such restricted stock unit (the aggregate amount, the "RSU Payment").

"Option Consideration" means the excess, if any, of $18.50 over the per share exercise price of the applicable stock option.
(13)  This option to purchase Shares was granted on March 2, 2015, and was exercisable in increments of 25% on the first two anniversaries of the date of grant and in an increment of 50% on the third anniversary of the date of grant.
