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) Represents the number of shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of 28,013 time-based RSUs and the target number of shares of common stock eligible to be issued upon vesting of 28,013 performance-based RSUs. The time-based RSUs vest in 3 equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date. The performance-based RSUs vest upon achieving certain performance goals, with up to 50% of such performance-based RSUs vesting if certain revenue targets from "self-service" transactions are achieved upon completion of the fiscal year ending 12/31/2016, and with up to 50% of such performance-based RSUs vesting if certain Adjusted EBITDA growth performance goals are achieved over the three year period ending 12/31/2016. No performance-based RSUs will vest unless a certain threshold goal of Adjusted EBITDA growth is achieved, and the "self-service" revenue performance-based RSUs are subject to a separate threshold requirement for a minimum amount of "self-service" revenue.
(2) Includes 58,977 shares that may be issued upon vesting of previously granted performance-based restricted stock units.
(3) Represents the number of shares withheld for the payment of tax liabilities in connection with the vesting of 3,681 performance-based RSUs that were granted on 11/17/2011 (1,290 RSUs) and 03/21/2012 (2,391 RSUs). The Human Resources and Nominating Committee of the Board made the determination that such RSUs vested on 02/24/2014, based on the achievement of certain performance goals for the period from 01/01/2012 through 12/31/2013. 3,110 and 5,766, respectively, performance-based RSUs remain eligible for vesting under such award upon achieving the target performance goal over the performance period of 01/01/2012 through 12/31/2014. If the target performance goal is not met but a certain threshold is achieved, or if a maximum performance goal is achieved, the reporting person will be entitled to from 50% up to 200% of the target number of RSUs, less the number of RSUs that vested for the period between 01/01/2012 through 12/31/2013.
(4) The price was determined based on the closing price of $20.08 per share of MoneyGram International, Inc.'s common stock on 02/24/2014.
(5) Includes 55,296 shares that may be issued upon vesting of previously granted performance-based restricted stock units.
