(b) | Mr. Carrasco’s stock trading plan provides that, upon future vesting and payout of equity compensation awards granted to Mr. Carrasco by the Company or any affiliate, the Corporate Secretary shall cause to be sold the number of shares of common stock that, when added to tax withholding by the Company, will generate sufficient proceeds to cover the full anticipated personal federal tax obligations on account of such equity compensation award. The proceeds shall be remitted directly to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The number of shares of common stock to potentially be sold pursuant to this stock trading plan will depend on the terms of current unvested and future equity compensation awards granted to Mr. Carrasco and the Company’s achievement relative to applicable performance measures for such current unvested and future equity compensation awards.
(c) | Mr. Watson’s stock trading plan provides for the potential cashless exercise of 8,184 stock options, upon our common stock reaching a specified market price, pursuant to which shares of common stock will be sold to cover option costs, tax obligations, commissions and fees, and all net shares received after settlement will also be sold.

(e) | Ms. Hemmer’s stock trading plan provides for a donation of 900 shares of our common stock upon our common stock reaching a specified market price.
(f) | Ms. Hemmer’s stock trading plan also provides for the sale of 25% of net after-tax shares of our common stock received upon the payout of performance share unit (“PSU”) equity compensation awards in 2024, for the performance period ending December 31, 2023, upon our common stock reaching each of three specified market prices, for an aggregate total sale of up to 75% of such net after-tax shares. Ms. Hemmer received a target grant of 11,930 PSU awards with a performance period ending December 31, 2023; the number of shares to be delivered to Ms. Hemmer on account of these PSU awards can range from zero to 200% of the initial target grant. As a result, the number of
| shares of common stock to potentially be sold pursuant to this instruction will be determined based on the Company’s achievement relative to applicable performance measures for the underlying PSU awards.
(g) | Ms. Hemmer’s stock trading plan also provides for the potential cashless exercise of an aggregate of 27,005 stock options upon our common stock reaching specified market prices, pursuant to which shares of common stock will be sold to cover option costs, tax obligations, commissions and fees; Ms. Hemmer will then continue to hold all remaining shares of common stock resulting from the option exercise after settlement.
(h) | Mr. Morris’s stock trading plan provides for the sale of all net after-tax shares of our common stock received upon payout of PSU equity compensation awards in 2024, for the performance period ending December 31, 2023, upon our common stock reaching a specified market price. Mr. Morris received a target grant of 16,140 PSU awards with a performance period ending December 31, 2023; the number of shares to be delivered to Mr. Morris on account of these PSU awards can range from zero to 200% of the initial target grant. As a result, the number of shares of common stock to potentially be sold pursuant to this instruction will be determined based on the Company’s achievement relative to applicable performance measures for the underlying PSU awards.
