        <footnote id="F1">The restricted stock units were awarded in March 2018 and cliff vested on August 20, 2021.  The payout was subject to the achievement of total shareholder return relative to the Issuer's peers over the period of January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020.  On February 21, 2021, the Compensation Committee certified that the performance achieved over the measurement period was 186% of target.  The restricted stock units converted into shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis. Due to restrictions under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, an additional 31,302 restricted stock units pursuant to this award vested and were settled in cash.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Includes shares acquired through participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.</footnote>
