Explanation of Responses:
(1)	These performance share units are granted under the Issuer's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Each performance share unit represents a share of common stock. The performance share units will be payable, if at all, in common stock, cash, or a combination of common stock and cash, to be determined in the discretion of the Issuer's Compensation Committee, based upon (i) the Issuer's total shareholder return measured against an industry peer group, (ii) on an absolute share return basis and (iii) based on a return on average capital employed metric, over a three-year performance period ending December 31, 2021. The final number of shares of common stock earned can range from 0% to 200% of the performance share units.
(2)	These are outperformance share units that are granted under the Issuer's Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan as part of an offer of employment. Each outperformance share unit represents a share of common stock. The outperformance share units will be payable, if at all, in common stock, based upon the Issuer's highest 50 consecutive trading day average closing stock price that occurs over a three-year performance period ending on June 3, 2022 and will vest in three equal annual installments beginning on June 3, 2022. The final number of shares of common stock earned can range from 0 to 1,000,000 shares.
