        <footnote id="F1">3,759 shares of restricted stock held by Mr. Randy R. Wiese vested February 19, 2015. The sold shares reported on this form represent those shares sold to cover a portion of the personal income tax withholding requirements as a result of such vesting.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These awards vest only upon the achievement of objective performance goals over a three-year period. All or a portion of these shares may vest only upon satisfying a combination of the following financial criteria, measured both annually, and on a cumulative basis: (i) achievement of a specified adjusted net income; and (ii) achievement of a specified revenue target. In addition, any shares that do not vest because of the level of financial criteria achieved, can vest upon the achievement of a specified company stock price, measured at the end of the three year period.</footnote>
