After giving effect to the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons (i) have shared voting power and shared dispositive power over 10,613,149 shares of Common Stock and (ii) beneficially own in the aggregate 10,613,149 shares of Common Stock, representing 4.8% of the total outstanding shares of  Common Stock.

(c) On May 7, 2021, the Reporting Persons sold 4,762,778 shares of Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange at a price per share of $19.50.  Other than such sales and as previously described in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have not effected any other transactions in shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock in the past sixty days.

(e) As a result of the transactions described in Item 5(c) above, each of the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of Common Stock on May 7, 2021.
