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)	Effective September 23, 2013, the Reporting Person received an award of 26,056 Performance Units (as adjusted to reflect the Issuer's two-for-one stock split (in the form of a stock dividend) which was effective March 31, 2014). The performance metric applicable to the award was the Total Shareholder Return of the Issuer over a three-year performance period (January 2014 through December 2016) relative to the Total Shareholder Return of each of the Issuer's Peer Companies. Pursuant to the terms of the award agreement, between 0% and 200% of the award could be earned based on the Issuer's TSR Rank. The Issuer's TSR Rank and applicable Performance Multiple (each as certified by the Compensation Committee of the Issuer's Board of Directors, effective February 14, 2017) was 1 and 200%, respectively. Accordingly, an additional 26,056 Performance Units have been credited to the Reporting Person. Subject to the terms of the award agreement, (i) the 52,112 aggregate Performance Units will "cliff" vest on September 23, 2018 and (ii) shares of the Issuer's common stock represented by the Performance Units (on a one-for-one basis) will be distributed to the Reporting Person following such vesting date. Defined terms used herein have the meanings set forth in the form of agreement governing the Performance Units award, which is filed as Exhibit 4.8 to the Issuer's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (SEC File No. 333-188352), filed on May 3, 2013.

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