        <footnote id="F1">Represents shares of common stock that have been withheld by the Issuer in connection with the payment of taxes resulting from the vesting of a previously reported restricted stock unit award. No shares of common stock were sold by the reporting person.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">These securities are a restricted stock unit award that is eligible to vest in three equal tranches, with each tranche subject to a performance-based vesting condition that requires achievement of an absolute stock price hurdle ($63.91, $74.56 and $85.22, respectively). In addition, each tranche is subject to time-based vesting conditions generally requiring minimum service periods of one year, two years and three years, respectively. The period for measuring the achievement of the stock price hurdles ends on February 6, 2028 and any restricted stock units that have not vested as of February 7, 2028 will be forfeited.</footnote>
