Exceptions and Errors are descendents of the class Throwable. You are only allowed to throw any object that descends from Throwable. As Error and Exception are siblings, if #2 was true, you couldn't throw Exceptions and if #3 was true, you couldn't throw Errors. The only correct answer is #1. I hope that helps, Corey
It's the "must be" that makes it only #1. It can be assignable to Exception (since Exception is a child of Throwable) but it must be assignable to Throwable.
