        <footnote id="F1">Reflects a make-whole award of restricted stock that is intended to correct for the impact of an administrative error; specifically, due to an administrative error, the Compensation Committee approved a number of awards for a grant to the reporting person on February 3, 2020 that was lower than was intended by the Committee. The make-whole award reflected in this Form 4 was approved by the Committee and is equal to the difference between the number of awards the Committee intended to grant on February 3, 2020 and the number actually granted on such date.  The restricted stock is scheduled to vest on February 3, 2023.</footnote>
