        <footnote id="F1">Each restricted stock unit (RSU) represents a contingent right to receive one share of common stock. The RSUs will be settled in either common stock or cash (or a combination thereof).</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">25,000 of these RSUs vest in equal annual installments over five years, subject to continued service through such dates, with the first vesting on June 23, 2022. The remainder of these RSUs are the portion of an aggregate grant of 25,000 RSUs subject to performance and time-based vesting criteria, where such performance-based conditions have been satisfied as of the date of grant.  Such performance-based RSUs will, subject to the achievement of performance-based conditions, vest on the same schedule noted above. Does not include the 19,918 unvested performance-based RSUs which will be reported when earned upon achievement of certain performance criteria.</footnote>
