Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(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 Reporting Person converted 49,436 CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs) on January 21, 2010. CDIs trade on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) and evidence beneficial ownership of Issuer's common stock on a ten-for-one basis. The conversion of 49,436 CDIs resulted in the Reporting Person's acquisition of 4,943 shares of common stock. The CDIs were converted into common stock at a conversion price equal to the market price of the common stock on the date of conversion.
(2)	The Reporting Person holds 12,480 directly and 4,943 indirectly held by Indubilla Pty Ltd on behalf of the Reporting Person's superannuation fund.
(3)	This amended Form 4 amends the Form 4 previously filed to correct a typographical error in the Date of Earliest Transaction Required to be Reported in Section 3. The date originally entered was 01/12/2010 and the correct date is 01/21/2010.
(4)	CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs) trading on the ASX evidencing beneficial ownership of the Issuer's common stock on a ten-for-one basis. Effective February 10, 2010, the CDIs will be delisted from the ASX.
(5)	CDIs trading on the ASX evidence beneficial ownership of the Issuer's common stock, $1.60 par value, on a ten-for-one basis.
(6)	The CDIs are convertible into the Issuer's common stock, on a ten-for-one basis at any time. However, effective February 10, 2010, the CDIs will be delisted from the ASX. Australian CDI holders can convert their CDIs to common stock or sell the underlying common shares through a share sale facility offered by the Issuer to Australian CDI holders. The Reporting Person has chosen to convert his CDIs to common stock.
