Explanation of Responses:

1. The restricted stock units are scheduled to vest in three equal annual installments beginning on June 1, 2019. Each unit converts into a share of common stock on a one-for-one basis.

2. The restricted stock units are scheduled to cliff vest at the end of three years, contingent upon the achievement of performance criteria over such three-year period. Each unit converts into a share of common stock on a one-for-one basis.

3. The restricted stock units are scheduled to vest in four equal annual installments beginning on June 1, 2019. Each unit converts into a share of common stock on a one-for-one basis.

4. The stock options are scheduled to become exercisable in four equal annual installments beginning on June 1, 2019.

5. The stock options are scheduled to become exercisable in four equal annual installments beginning on June 1, 2019 (each, a "Vesting Date"), subject to the Company's 60-trading day average closing price meeting or exceeding $71.22 (the "Performance Goal") prior to June 1, 2022. If the Performance Goal is met prior to the first Vesting Date, then all four annual installments will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule. If the Performance Goal is met subsequent to the first Vesting Date, each annual installment relating to a Vesting Date that has already occurred will automatically vest upon achievement of the Performance Goal and any remaining installments will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule. If the Performance Goal is not met by June 1, 2022, all stock options are forfeited.
