        <footnote id="F1">In accordance with the issuer's Amended and Restated Incentive Plan, this price represents the closing price per share of Common Stock on the previous trading day.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">3,383 shares were withheld by the issuer to satisfy income tax withholding requirements related to the lapsing of restrictions on (a) 719 shares of restricted stock awarded to the reporting person on 5/19/21 (Form 4 filed 5/21/21); (b) 3,654 shares of restricted stock awarded to the reporting person on 5/19/20 (Form 4s filed 5/21/20 and 5/10/21); (c) 2,245 shares of restricted stock awarded to the reporting person on 5/16/19 (Form 4s filed 5/20/19 and 5/15/20); and (d) 1,954 shares of restricted stock awarded to the reporting person on May 17, 2018 (Form 4s filed 5/21/18 and 5/15/19).  Because the reporting person's restricted holdings have been included in the direct ownership of Common Stock disclosed by the reporting person, the reporting person's direct ownership of Common Stock has been reduced by 3,383 shares to reflect this tax withholding.</footnote>
