        <footnote id="F1">Restricted Stock Units vest and become exercisable in 12 equal monthly installments with the vesting dates beginning on June 1, 2015 and ending on May 1, 2016. Settlement of vested Units into common stock will occur on the earlier of May 1, 2016 and the date the reporting person ceases to provide services to the Issuer, or thereafter, on the first market trading day in an open trading window under Issuer's insider trading policy if the applicable date is not a market trading day in an open trading window.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">If the reporting person ceases to provide services to the Issuer for any reason, all Restricted Stock Units that have not yet vested shall be forfeited without consideration except as provided in our Equity Grant Policy for Outside Directors and any other agreements between the reporting person and Issuer, regarding award vesting and exercisability.</footnote>
