Explanation of Responses:

1. 1 for 1

2. Represents an inducement award of performance stock units ("PSUs"), granted outside the 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan, to the reporting person in connection with his appointment as Chairman and CEO. Subject to continued employment conditions and accelerated vesting in certain circumstances, the PSUs will vest, if at all, based upon meeting the following stock performance conditions for 30 consecutive trading days during the four-year performance period from October 1, 2018 to September 30, 2022: half of the PSUs will be eligible to vest upon achieving a stock price of $18.60 (the "threshold target"), all of the PSUs will be eligible to vest upon achieving a stock price of $24.80, and an additional 2.5 million PSUs will be eligible to vest upon achieving a stock price of $31.00 (the "maximum target"). No PSUs will be granted below the threshold target, and the amount of PSUs granted between the threshold target and maximum target will be determined by linear interpolation.
