(the &#x201C;</font><font style="display:inline;text-decoration:underline;">Company</font><font style="display:inline;">&#x201D;) held a conference call in connection with the Company&#x2019;s announcement of its earnings for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019. The following excerpt from the script for the conference call contains statements that may be deemed proxy soliciting materials: &nbsp;</font>

			<font style="display:inline;font-weight:normal;font-size:10pt;">Before getting into our key objectives for 2020, I&#x2019;d like to briefly address the unsolicited proposal we received from the N&amp;W Group last year. On December 10, 2019, we received a preliminary unsolicited proposal from Shepherd Kaplan Krochuk, LLC and North &amp; Webster SSG, LLC to acquire the company for $16.38 per share, subject to certain conditions.</font>

			<font style="display:inline;font-weight:normal;font-size:10pt;">Although the N&amp;W Group&#x2019;s offer expired on December 16, 2019, the board took extensive measures to evaluate their proposal, including engaging Stifel Financial Corporation to act as financial advisor to the board. Wayside management, members of the board of directors and Stifel engaged with principals of the N&amp;W Group on multiple occasions to discuss their expired bid. After a thorough review of the inbound inquiry and in consultation with our advisors, the board determined that the expired bid was not in the best interest of shareholders and did not serve as a basis for further diligence or discussion. This was communicated to the N&amp;W Group on February 11, 2020.</font>

			<font style="display:inline;font-weight:normal;font-size:10pt;">The board had been engaged in constructive dialogue with the N&amp;W Group for several months prior to receiving their proposal, as the board and our management team are always open to receiving constructive input toward our goal of increasing long-term shareholder value. Additionally, the board engaged an investor relations team at Gateway Group, Inc. in the fourth quarter of 2019, which further demonstrates our commitment to building a robust, regular and ongoing shareholder engagement program.</font>
