Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(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)	The original Form 3 erroneously reported that the Reporting Person indirectly owns 3,507 shares in a 401(k) plan. The Reporting Person does not hold any such shares, and this amendment is accordingly filed to delete references to those shares.
(2)	Includes 144,244 restricted share units that vest as follows: 4,000 that vest on February 5, 2014; 3,000 that vest on December 7, 2013; an aggregate of 30,000 that vest ratably on each of November 7, 2013, 2014 and 2015; an aggregate of 75,000 that vest ratably on each of February 12, 2014, 2015 and 2016; and an aggregate of 32,244 that vest ratably on each of March 7, 2014, 2015 and 2016.
(3)	The Reporting Person holds 32,244 performance share units. Each performance unit represents a contingent right to receive 0 to 2 shares. The conversion ratio ultimately applied to these performance units will be determined based on the absolute increase in the issuer's share price over the performance period (fiscal years 2013-2015). The units are scheduled to vest on January 1, 2016.

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