Explanation of responses
- F1Represents the accelerated vesting and settlement into shares of Issuer common stock of performance-based stock units ("PSUs"). The acceleration of the vesting of the PSAs occurred as a result of a determination made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Issuer in connection with the pending merger pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Progressive Waste Solutions Ltd., Water Merger Sub LLC and the Issuer.
- F2Represents shares of issuer common stock withheld by the Issuer from the settlement of the PSUs in satisfaction of the applicable withholding taxes due as a result of the vesting of the PSUs, through an automatic share withholding procedure. Pursuant to this procedure the issuer withholds, upon the acclerated vesting of such PSUs, a portion of the vested shares issuable under the award with a fair market value (measured as of the accelerated vesting date) equal to the amount of such withholding taxes.
