2. The Restricted Stock Units vest as follows: 25% of the units vest one year following the vesting commencement date of March 15, 2013 and 6.25% each quarter thereafter, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service to the Issuer through each such vesting date.

3. The grant consists of two separate issuances of Restricted Stock Units. One issuance consists of 2,000 units which vest as follows: 1/16th of the units vest quarterly following the vesting commencement date of September 15, 2013 (the "VCD"), subject to the Reporting Person's continued service to the Issuer.
