Upon request by the SEC staff, the issuer or a security holder of the issuer, the reporting person will undertake to provide full information regarding the number of shares and prices at which transactions were effected.

F3: Shares vested ratably on anniversaries of grant date.

F4: Shares vested upon achievement of certain operational and financial goals.

F5: Reflects the inclusion of restricted shares inadvertently omitted from the reporting person's Form 4 filed on May 7, 2012 ("Original Form 4"). The number of securities reported on the Original Form 4 inadvertently reflected only the increase in shares held as a result of the lapsing of the restrictions on the first one-fifth of the earned restricted stock. In order to be consistent with the reporting of other earned restricted share awards, the reporting person is including the entire earned restricted stock amount in the holdings, subject to the schedule for the lapsing of restrictions on the remaining shares as stated in footnote (1) of the Original Form 4.
