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) Voluntary reporting of USM shares in the USM 401K. The information is based on a plan statement dated 12/31/17. The number of shares fluctuates and is attributable to the price of the shares on 12/31/17.
(2) Options are scheduled to become exercisable in annual increments of one third on April 1 of each year
(3) Restricted stock units that become vested on third annual anniversary.
(4) On April 3, 2017, the reporting person was granted an award based on the achievement of certain performance measures, except that such award provides that in no event shall the number of shares subject to the award be less than 50% of the target opportunity as of the grant date. Accordingly, the reporting person is reporting a stock award of 50% of the target opportunity as of the grant date. To the extent that the actual amount is determined to be greater than 50% of the target opportunity based on the final determination of the performance measures, the reporting person will file a Form 4 at such time to report the additional award above 50% of the target opportunity.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space provided is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
