        <footnote id="F1">The sales reported on this Form 4 were effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 instruction letter previously adopted by the Reporting Person and represent shares required to be sold by the Reporting Person to cover tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of Restricted Stock Awards (RSAs). This amendment to the Form 4 filed on May 17, 2019 by the
 Reporting Person corrects the fact that these shares were sold pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 instruction letter instead of by delivering of securities to the Company incident to the vesting of a security.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Excludes 36,338 shares of common stock (the &quot;Excluded Shares&quot;) underlying an award of Restricted Stock Units granted on April 15, 2019 (the &quot;RSU Award&quot;). The RSU Award was inadvertently reported on Table I instead of Table II on the Form 4 filed by the Reporting Person on April 16, 2019. As a result of this administrative error, the Excluded Shares were erroneously included in the Table I, Column 5 total of the Form 4 filed by the Reporting Person on April 16, 2019.</footnote>
