Explanation of Responses: (1) The Class A Common Stock was acquired by a subsidiary of Credit Suisse First Boston (the "Bank") as part of a unit consisting of 16% Senior Notes due July 20, 2011 and Class A Common Stock. $16.00 is the per share price allocated to Class A Common Stock by certain of the Purchasers. (2) This Form 4 is being filed by the Bank, a Swiss bank, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, to the extent that they constitute part of the Credit Suisse First Boston business unit (the "CSFB Business Unit" or the "Reporting Person"). The CSFB Business Unit is engaged in the corporate and investment banking, trading (equity, fixed income and foreign exchange), private equity investment and derivatives businesses on a worldwide basis. The Bank and its subsidiaries engage in other separately managed activities, most of which constitute the independently operated Credit Suisse Asset Management business unit; the Credit Suisse Asset Management business unit provides asset management and investment advisory services to institutional investors worldwide. The shares being reported are held by one or more indirect subsidiaries of the Reporting Person. The ultimate parent company of the Bank is Credit Suisse Group, a corporation formed under the laws of Switzerland ("CSG"). The principal business of CSG is acting as a holding company for a global financial services group with five distinct specialized business units that are independently operated. In addition to the two business units referred to above, CSG and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than the Bank and its subsidiaries) are comprised of (a) the Credit Suisse Private Bank business unit that engages in the global private banking business (b) the Credit Suisse business unit that engages in the Swiss domestic banking business and (c) the Winterthur business unit that engages in the global insurance business. CSG's business address is Paradeplatz 8, Postfach 1, CH-8070, Zurich, Switzerland. CSG, for purposes of federal securities laws, may be deemed ultimately to control the Bank, and the CSFB Business Unit. CSG, its executive officers and directors, and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (including all of the business units except the CSFB Business Unit), may beneficially own securities issued by the Issuer or derivative securities relating thereto, and any such securities are not reported in this statement. Due to the separate management and independent operation of its business units, CSG disclaims beneficial ownership of any such securities beneficially owned by its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of any such securities beneficially owned by CSG and any of CSG's and the Bank's other business units. The Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of securities held directly by any entity described herein except with respect to the Reporting Person's proportionate interest in or ownership of such entity. The filing of this statement shall not be construed for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as an admission of beneficial ownership of the securities reported on this statement.
