        <footnote id="F3">On November 16, 2015, the reporting person received a grant, subject to
stockholder approval which was obtained June 1, 2016, of 20,000 RSUs, convertible into common stock of the issuer on a one-for-one basis. The RSUs vest in three equal annual installments beginning November 16, 2016 (the &quot;Time Conditions&quot;) provided, however, that no tranche of RSUs will vest until it is determined that Cogint, Inc. has exceeded certain revenue targets and achieved positive EBITDA in any one fiscal year during the vesting period (the &quot;Performance Conditions&quot;). Cogint, Inc. determined the Performance Conditions were met effective March 14, 2017. As such, the subsequent tranches vest equally on November 16, 2017 and November 16, 2018.</footnote>
