Explanation of responses

F1On February 15, 2015, the Reporting Person was awarded 3,557 target performance stock units with a three-year performance period ending December 31, 2017. As previously reported on a Form 4 (filed with the SEC on January 25, 2018), on January 24, 2018, the Compensation and Human Development Committee approved a payout of 178% of the target PSUs under the performance standards set in 2015, based on (i) the Issuer's cumulative Adjusted EPS achieved during the performance period, which resulted in an Adjusted EPS factor of 200%, and (ii) its total stockholder return for the performance period compared to other companies in the S&P 500, which resulted in a TSR modifier of 89%. The PSU payout factor is determined by multiplying the Adjusted EPS factor and the TSR modifier. On February 15, 2018, the Reporting Person acquired 6,331 shares of common stock upon the vesting of the performance stock units.
