Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 Represents shares withheld by the Issuer in satisfaction of the applicable withholding taxes due in connection with the vesting of restricted share units and delivery of the converted common shares.
F2 Represents the conversion of restricted share units into common shares of the Issuer. These restricted share units were previously vested and deferred under the Issuer's Deferred Compensation Plan. They are scheduled to be distributed pursuant to a multi-year installment method election as a result of the participant's transition from Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer to its Executive Chairman. The distribution represents the third of five distributions elected by the participant.
F3 Represents an award of performance-based restricted share units. The target number of units is presented in the table. Subject to certain continued employment conditions and subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances, the number of units that actually vest at the end of the three-year performance period will be 0% to 250% of the scheduled amount, depending on the extent to which the Issuer meets or exceeds certain performance goals at the end of each year during the performance period. The maximum number of units that may vest at the end of the three-year performance period is 8,780 (250% of the target number).
F4 Represents an award of restricted share units. The award shall vest 25% per year over a four-year period following the date of grant.
F5 Represents the conversion upon vesting of restricted share units into common shares of the Issuer. The restricted share units were awarded on February 19, 2021 and vest in four equal annual installments. The common shares are reported in Table 1.
F6 Represents the conversion upon vesting of restricted share units into common shares of the Issuer. The performance-based restricted share unit award was granted on February 20, 2018 and contained a performance target that was achieved by the Issuer over the one fiscal year period that ended December 31, 2018. As a result, the award shall vest 25% per year over the four-year period following the date of grant. The common shares are reported on Table I.
F7 The deferred restricted share unit award was granted on 2/11/2010 and vested 25% per year over the four-year period following the date of grant.
