        <footnote id="F2">The restricted stock units vest in four equal quarterly installments beginning on August 1, 2024, except that the last quarterly installment shall vest on the earlier of the date of the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Issuer and May 1, 2025. Unless delivery has been deferred by election of the reporting person, vested shares will be delivered to the reporting person as soon as administratively practicable, but no later than 30 days from the payment date or separation of service, as applicable, upon the earliest to occur of the reporting person's separation from service with the Issuer, certain changes in control of the Issuer and May 1, 2025.</footnote>
