1. The Reporting Persons entered an equity swap agreement under which, upon the termination of the agreement on November 30, 2023, the counterparty will pay to the Reporting Persons any decrease in the price of the Common Stock below $9.5729 per share and the Reporting Persons will pay to the counterparty any increase in the price of the Common Stock above $9.5729 per share, in each case, based on a notional amount of 714 shares of Common Stock.

2. On November 14, 2022, the Reporting Persons amended the equity swap agreement to reduce the notional number of shares of Common Stock to 166 and to change the reference price used to determine when payments are made to $9.4455. Without admitting these changes resulted in a material amendment to the equity swap agreement for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Reporting Persons have treated the amendment as the termination of the previously reported equity agreement and the entering into of a new equity swap agreement reflecting the amended terms.

3. On November 28, 2022, the Reporting Persons terminated the equity swap agreement.

4. The Reporting Persons entered an equity swap agreement under which, upon the termination of the agreement on November 30, 2023, the Reporting Persons will pay to the counterparty any decrease in the price of the Common Stock below $10.2451 per share and the counterparty will pay to the Reporting Persons any increase in the price of the Common Stock above $10.2451 per share, in each case, based on a notional amount of 25 shares of Common Stock.

5. On December 14, 2022, the Reporting Persons terminated the equity swap agreement.
