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) Reflects shares acquired from the 2013 RSU and PSU vesting reported on Table II.
(2) The number of RSUs or PSUS awarded to the Reporting Person was determined by dividing the total dollar value of compensation granted to the Reporting Person by the closing price of HSII common stock on the grant date of March 8, 2013.
(3) RSUs are service-based and will vest in three equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. PSUs are target-based equity grants that generally vest three years from the grant date if certain performance goals are achieved.
(4) Granted under the Company's Global Share Plan. Each RSU or PSU represents a right to receive one share of the Issuer's Common Stock upon vesting.
(5) Represents an increase in the target number of PSU's granted to the Reporting Person under the 2013 PSU grant because the Issuer exceeded the operating income performance measure for the period 2013-2015 which increased the number of shares vesting on the PSU grant.
(6) Represents the vesting of PSUs granted on March 8, 2013 in the amount of 13,499 which were subject to the achievement of certain performance measures and issued based on a graduated scale ranging from 0 to 200 percent of the initial target amount.

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