**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	There has been no transaction in the indirect holdings for this reporting person. For clarity, the reporting person has reported the shares held directly and indirectly on separate lines in Table I of this Form 4.
(2)	These shares are held by Haverford Capital Partners (Cayman) Limited, and the reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares.
(3)	The Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") vest 100% on the date of the grant.
(4)	Each RSU represents the right to receive without payment to the Company, one newly-issued, fully paid and non-assessable common share of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the RSU Plan and the grant certificate evidencing each grant. In the discretion of the Compensation Committee, upon vesting the value of the RSU grant alternatively may be paid in cash, or partly in common shares.
(5)	The reporting person hereby reports both the conversion of 2,985 RSUs into an equal number of common shares and the assignment of those common shares from Haverford Capital Partners (Cayman) Limited to the reporting person.
