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 reported securities are held by Comax Partners, a family partnership of which Beechmax, Inc. is the sole general partner and Mr. Donahue has a limited partnership interest. Mr. Donahue is a shareholder of Beechmax, Inc. On April 30, 2012, the reporting person gifted a portion of his limited partnership interest in Comax Partners to two of his children who share his household. Box 4 of the original Form 4 filed December 26, 2012 indicated that the limited partnership interest in Comax Partners that was gifted represented 57,360 shares of the issuer. Subsequent to the filing it was determined that in actuality the limited partnership interest in Comax Partners that was gifted represents 11,834 shares of the issuer. This transaction did not involve any public sale of shares.
(2) The shares of FII Class B Common Stock reported represent Mr. Donahue's proportional beneficial interest in shares of issuer securities held by Comax Partners as shareholder of the general partner. Mr. Donahue disclaims beneficial ownership of the FII Class B Common Stock held by Comax Partners except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
