Explanation of Responses:
The Reporting Person is a registered investment adviser, and by virtue of
the aggregate percentage position of its clients, as determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934
(the "Exchange Act"), it is "deemed" to be a more than 10% beneficial owner
of the Issuer's Common Stock. However, the Reporting Person disclaims
beneficial ownership in these securities except to the extent of its
"pecuniary interest" (as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the
Exchange Act) in its clients' securities, if any. The Reporting Person
disclaims beneficial ownership in these securities for Section 16 purposes
and for all other purposes.
