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) On March 25, 2009 (the "Settlement Date"), the reporting person settled a Prepaid Variable Forward Share Transaction (the "Transaction") that was entered into on March 20, 2008 (the "Execution Date") with an unaffiliated third party purchaser ("Buyer"). The contract obligated the reporting person to deliver to the Buyer up to 225,000 common shares of Urban Outfitters, Inc. ("Urban") or, at the reporting person's election, an equivalent amount of cash on the Settlement Date. The Transaction specified a "Forward Floor Price" of $30.6685 per share, a "Forward Cap Price" of $36.8022 per share, and a "Reference Amount" of 225,000 common shares.
(2) In exchange for assuming this obligation, the reporting person received a cash payment of $6,129,996.55 within three exchange days of the Execution Date. The reporting person pledged 225,000 common shares of Urban (the "Pledged Shares") to secure his obligations under the contract, and retained dividend and voting rights in the Pledged Shares during the term of the pledge. Under the contract, the number of common shares of Urban that the reporting person would deliver to the Buyer on the Settlement Date was determined according to the closing bid price per common share on March 20, 2009 (the "Settlement Price") as follows: (i) if the "Settlement Price" was less than or equal to the Forward Floor Price, the reporting person would deliver to the Buyer a number of common shares equal to the Reference Amount;
(3) (ii) if the Settlement Price was above the Forward Floor Price but less than or equal to the Forward Cap Price, a number of common shares equal to (a) the Reference Amount multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which was the Forward Floor Price and the denominator of which was the Settlement Price; or (iii) if the Settlement Price was above the Forward Cap Price, a number of common shares equal to (a) the Reference Amount multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which was the Forward Floor Price plus the Settlement Price minus the Forward Cap Price, and the denominator of which was the Settlement Price. On March 20, 2009, the Settlement Price was $17.39. Accordingly, the reporting person transferred to the Buyer all of the Pledged Shares (225,000 common shares of Urban) on the Settlement Date.
