F1 The Reporting Person was granted Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") which represent a contingent right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock for each RSU. The shares were issued pursuant to vested RSUs released on February 9, 2022.
F2 This Form 4 is being updated to report 236 share(s) that was inadvertently omitted on the Reporting Person's Form 4 filed on July 20, 2021.
F3 Includes 1,705 shares acquired under the VLDR 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan on Date. This transaction is exempt pursuant to Rule 16b-3(c).
F4 The sales reported on this Form 4 represent shares required to be sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the previously reported vesting and settlement of RSUs. These sales are mandated by the Reporting Person's award agreement to require the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and do not represent discretionary trades by the Reporting Person.
F5 The Reporting Person was granted RSUs which represent a contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock for each RSU. The RSU shall vest over a two-year period in equal quarterly installments from July 18, 2021, subject to the Reporting Person's continuous service with the issuer.
