Explanation of Responses:

Id Content
F1 The Reporting Person was granted restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which represent a contingent right to receive one share of Common Stock for each RSU. On February 13, 2023, the reporting person was granted a total of 116,329 restricted stock units, which fully vested on March 2, 2023.
F2 The sale reported on this Form 4 represents shares sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting and settlement of RSUs. The sale was to satisfy tax withholding obligations to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and does not represent a discretionary transaction by the Reporting Person.
