Explanation of Responses:
1. This transaction reflects the conversion of restricted stock units into Class A Common Shares.
2. An administrative error occurred when reporting shares owned by this individual. This transaction should have reflected an "A" for acquired, instead of a "D" for disposed of securities.
3. The terms of this long-term incentive award mandate that the Company withhold shares to satisfy the reporting person's tax obligation.
4. Forty percent of the units awarded in 2014 were contingent on performance measures. Because the company did not meet these measures, the subject units did not vest and were forfeited under terms of the award.
5. This restricted stock unit award will vest in 2015. Upon vesting, each restricted stock unit will convert into one Class A Common Share of the Company.
