EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment
No. 3”) is filed to amend and restate, in its entirety, the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) on February 9, 2015 by Thompson S. Baker II, Edward L. Baker and the Trust FBO Edward L. Baker U/A Cynthia L.
Baker Trust dated 4/30/1965 (the “ELB Trust”), as subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed with
the SEC on February 7, 2017 and Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on April 13, 2020 (which constituted an exit filing
with respect to the ELB Trust) (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”).
Edward L. Baker ceased to be a beneficial owner of
more than five percent (5%) of the Common Stock (as defined below) upon his passing on April 28, 2022. Upon Mr. Baker’s death, the
141,158 shares of Common Stock formerly held by the ELB Trust were distributed to separate trusts for the benefit of Mr. Baker’s
four children, which are further described in Item 5(a), clauses (ii) through (v). Thompson S. Baker II remains as a trustee with respect
to all such shares. As of January 10, 2023, a total of 41,651 shares of Common Stock (representing 1.2% of the outstanding Common Stock
of the Issuer), remain in Mr. Baker’s estate, of which Thompson S. Baker II and John D. Baker II have been appointed as co-executors.
Additionally, this Amendment No. 3 amends Thompson
S. Baker II’s beneficial ownership to reflect increases related to (i) the administration of Edward L. Baker’s estate, (ii)
the issuance of Common Stock awards to the Reporting Person in accordance with the Issuer’s director compensation policy, and (iii)
the repricing of certain stock options held by the Reporting Person in connection with extraordinary dividends paid to shareholders of
