Explanation of Responses:
1. Pro rata distributions by each of Clark/Fox L.L.C., Clark/Fox II, L.L.C. and Clark/Fox III, L.L.C. (collectively, "the entities"). The entities were formed by Chief Executive Bear Maxine Clark prior to the initial public offering of Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (the "Company") for purposes of allowing certain accredited investors to make private equity investments in the Company. Following the Company's initial public offering and the expiration of the mandatory 180 day lock-up agreement (which had prohibited distribution of the shares held by these entities), and in accordance with their respective operating agreements, the shares held by the entities were distributed to the entities' members on a pro rata basis.
2. Price is not applicable to distributions and acquisitions of portfolio securities because no purchase or sale of securities occurs in conjunction with the distributions subject to this filing.
3. Ms. Clark is also an investor in the entities and accordingly she also receives distribution of shares as reflected herein including: (1) 40,913 shares received as a distribution from Clark/Fox, L.L.C., (2) 33,871 shares received as a distribution from Clark/Fox II, L.L.C. and (3) 22 shares received as a distribution from Clark/Fox III, L.L.C.
