        <footnote id="F1">Reflects fully-vested restricted stock units (RSUs) granted in accordance with the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Award Plan. The number of shares granted is equal to the reporting person's aggregate annual retainer fees plus additional director compensation fees (less any portion of such fees elected to be paid in cash), divided by the closing market price of a share of the issuer's common stock on January 3, 2023.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The shares will be delivered to the reporting person upon the earlier of (a) the date on which the reporting person ceases to be a director for any reason, provided that such reporting person incurs a &quot;separation from service&quot; from the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the related Treasury Regulations) (the &quot;Separation Date&quot;), or (b) the first or fifth anniversary of the grant date (as elected by the reporting person in advance), before giving effect to any applicable right to re-defer delivery.</footnote>
