Explanation of Responses:

Id	Content
F1	This transaction represents the settlement of previously-reported restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which vested on 6/7/2022. Each RSU represented a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock.
F2	Reflects the transfer of 151,683 shares, which were previously reported as being held directly by Mr. Goss, to The Michael F Goss 2006 Irrevocable Family Trust (the "Trust") in a Section 16-exempt transaction. Mr. Goss is a trustee of the Trust and may be considered to have beneficial ownership of the Trust's interests in the Issuer's common stock. Mr. Goss disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares in which he does not have a pecuniary interest.
F3	Each RSU represents a right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock. These RSUs will vest on the earlier of June 7, 2023 and the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Issuer, provided that the reporting person continues to serve as a director of the Issuer through and on such vesting date. The RSUs may, in certain circumstances, become immediately vested as of the date of a change in control of the Issuer.
