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) An initial grant of 250,000 restricted stock units (RSUs) reported on a Form 4 dated November 10, 2011 contained 162,500 RSUs subject to performance-based vesting requirements based on the achievement of performance criteria measured for the three-year period ended September 30, 2014, which resulted in no vesting of such performance based RSUs. Accordingly, 162,500 RSUs are forfeited.
(2) Grant of restricted stock units to the Reporting Person under the company's Long Term Incentive Plan. No amount was paid upon grant of the units. One quarter of the units are subject to time-based vesting (the "Time-Based Units") and three quarters of the units are subject to a combination of performance and time based besting (the "Performance-Based Units"). The time-based units vest 33-1/3% per year, beginning on November 5, 2015. 60% of the performance-based units are based upon the achievement of performance metrics measured for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015, and will then vest over time as follows: 50% on November 6, 2015 and 50% on November 6, 2016. The remaining 40% of the performance-based units are based on the achievement of performance metrics measured for the three-year period ending September 30, 2017, and will then vest at the end of such period.

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

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
