The shares covered by this report, as well as the original 2,875 shares underlying the award previously reported on the above date vested in full on October 1, 2021 and were converted in the Merger into the right to receive $62.10 in cash per share underlying the Performance Shares (the "Merger Consideration").

3. Previously reported Restricted Stock and Performance Share awards were included in previously reported amount of securities beneficially owned.

4. Each share of common stock was cancelled pursuant to the Merger Agreement in exchange for the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

5. Effective as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, each then-outstanding and unexercised stock option of the issuer with an exercise price less than $62.10 was automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock then underlying such stock option multiplied by (ii) the excess of the $62.10 over the exercise price per share of such stock option, on the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement.
