Explanation of Responses:
(1)	Each Restricted Stock Unit ("RSU") represents the contingent right to receive, upon vesting, one share of the Issuer's Common Stock.
(2)	Represents the number of shares required to be sold to cover the statutory tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of the RSUs listed in Table II. This sale is mandated by the Issuer's election under its equity incentive plans to require the satisfaction of minimum statutory tax withholding obligations to be funded by a "sell to cover" transaction and does not represent a discretionary sale by the reporting person.
(3)	RSUs granted to the reporting person on July 9, 2021, vest in sixteen (16) equal quarterly installments over a four (4) year period beginning October 9, 2021 and each quarter thereafter until fully-vested, subject to the reporting person's continuous service to the Issuer on such vesting dates.
