F1 On August 31, 2022, the Reporting Person was granted performance share units ("PSUs"), the vesting of which was subject to the achievement of certain 3-year cumulative revenue criteria and 3-year cumulative adjusted EBITDA criteria. In light of the performance based conditions of the award, the award was not reportable under Section 16 until the performance-based conditions were certified by the Issuer's Compensation Committee. Such certification occurred on March 7, 2025.
F2 PSUs convert into common stock on a one-for-one basis.
