Explanation of Responses:
1. Represents shares of performance based restricted stock units granted to the filing person on February 5, 2021. The vesting of the shares of performance based restricted stock units was conditioned upon the achievement of certain 2021 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") performance versus pre-established targets. The restricted stock units vest over three years (1/3 on February 15, 2022, 1/3 on February 15, 2023 and 1/3 on February 15, 2024). Of the 52,718 shares, 17,572 were issued on February 15, 2024, of which 7,968 shares were withheld to satisfy payment of the Issuer's tax withholding obligation. The third and final tranche of shares for this award have been issued.
2. The common stock number referred in Table I is an aggregate number and represents 1,159,156 shares of common stock and 68,905 unvested performance based restricted stock units for which the performance period has been satisfied. These performance based restricted stock units vest over a three year period, in which 33.33% of the units vest each year. The satisfaction of the 2024 performance based restricted units tied to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and the corresponding number of shares to be issued pursuant to these awards, will not be determined until February 2025 and will be reported at the time of vesting. The satisfaction of the 2022, 2023 and 2024 total shareholder return performance based restricted stock units and the corresponding number of shares to be issued pursuant to these awards, will not be determined until February 2025, February 2026 and February 2027 respectively, and will be reported at the time of vesting.
3. The satisfaction of the performance based restricted stock units granted as Deal Incentive Awards and the corresponding number of shares to be issued pursuant to these awards, will not be determined until December 2026, December 2027 and December 2028 and will be subject to additional time-based vesting conditions and, if applicable, a subsequent one-year holding period.
