Explanation of Responses:

*   This Statement is filed pursuant to paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 16a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 
    "Exchange Act").  The reported securities are beneficially owned by advisory clients of the Reporting Person.  The Reporting
    Person has no "pecuniary interest" in such securities (within the meaning of paragraph (a)(2) of said Rule) and accordingly
    disclaims beneficial ownership thereof for all purposes (other than for 10% reporting status) under Section 16 of the
    Exchange Act.
