F2 Represents shares disposed to cover taxes upon the vesting of a deferred stock award granted to the Reporting Person on March 12, 2021. The disposition of shares to cover tax withholding obligations is required by the terms of the Reporting Person's grant agreement and does not represent a discretionary transaction by the Reporting Person.

The Reporting Person previously reported the total number of shares subject to vesting of the RSUs in Table I of a Form 4 filed in connection with the original purchase of the RSUs. The withholding of shares to cover tax withholding obligations is mandated by the terms of the Issuer's MSPP and does not represent a discretionary transaction by the Reporting Person.
