        <footnote id="F1">This transaction was effected pursuant to a 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by the reporting person.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Represents the aggregate of sales effected on the same day at different prices.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Represents the weighted average sales price per share. The shares sold at prices ranging from $15.26 to $15.51 per share. Full information regarding the number of shares sold at each price shall be provided upon request to the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Issuer, or a security holder of the Issuer.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">Pursuant to a Form 4 filed on September 29, 2017, 12,303 shares were reported as having been disposed of in exchange for the Issuer's agreement to pay certain tax obligations of the Reporting Person in connection with the settlement of Restricted Stock Units (&quot;RSUs&quot;).  It was subsequently determined that only 12,244 shares were disposed of to meet such tax obligations; therefore, this amount includes the 59 shares that were not required to be disposed of in connection with the RSU settlement.</footnote>
