Explanation of Responses:
1. Represents the conversion upon vesting of restricted stock units ("RSUs") into common stock. On February 11, 2016, the Reporting Person was awarded 20,000 RSUs subject to: (a) shareholder approval of the 2016 Incentive Compensation Plan, and (b) the Issuer achieving a target level of performance based income ("PBI Metric") for 2016. The Plan was approved at the Issuer's annual meeting on May 10, 2016 and the Compensation Committee confirmed the achievement of the PBI Metric on February 13, 2017. The RSUs were reported on Table II of a Form 4 filed in connection therewith. The Reporting Person received 226.78 additional RSUs (subject to the same conditions) through associated dividend equivalent rights in connection with dividends paid on the Issuer's common stock after the grant date that were reported on Table II of previously filed Form 4s (such additional RSUs, together with the underlying RSUs, the "2016 RSUs"). 50% of the 2016 RSUs vested on February 11, 2018.
2. The Reporting Person is reporting the withholding, by the Issuer, of 3,877 shares of common stock that vested in respect of the 2016 RSUs on February 11, 2018 but were not issued in order to satisfy the Reporting Person's tax withholding obligations in connection with the delivery to the Reporting Person of the converted common stock in respect of the vested 2016 RSUs.
3. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's common stock.
4. 50% of the 2016 RSUs vested on February 11, 2018. The common stock into which such vested RSUs converted is reported on Table I of this Form 4. The remaining unvested 2016 RSUs will vest on February 11, 2019. Shares of the Issuer's common stock will be delivered to the Reporting Person within 30 days after vesting, subject to any election to defer delivery of shares by the Reporting Person.
5. 15,308 RSUs were awarded to the Reporting Person on February 13, 2017 subject to the Issuer achieving a pre-determined PBI Metric for 2017. 79.88 additional RSUs were awarded to the Reporting Person (subject to the same condition as the underlying RSUs) on account of dividend equivalent rights associated with these RSUs in connection with the Issuer's payment of dividends on its common stock after the grant date for the underlying RSUs (such additional RSUs, together with the underlying RSUs, the "2017 RSUs"). The Compensation Committee of the Issuer's board of directors determined that the Issuer achieved the PBI Metric on February 12, 2018.
6. 50% of the 2017 RSUs vest on February 13, 2019 and 50% vest on February 13, 2020. Shares of the Issuer's common stock will be delivered to the Reporting Person within 30 days after vesting, subject to any election to defer delivery of shares by the Reporting Person.
