Explanation of Responses:
(1)  This sale was made pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan, which the reporting person entered into on June 24, 2004. The reporting person timely filed a Form 4 on February 7, 2005 to report the sale of 25,000 shares under the Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan on February 4, 2005. However, that Form 4 reported the sale in the aggregate using the average sales price. The reporting person subsequently determined that the sales were made in a series of transactions at various prices. This Form 4 is being Filed to reflect those individual transactions and prices rather than the aggregated and averaged information.
